Last night I finally started watching Gossip Girl (I know I know I’m late) and in episode 3 I saw Serena (Blake Lively) rock these hot grey over-the-knee boots and I knew I had to have them (I luv over-the-knee)! I searched online and found out they were the Chinese Laundry Strate Over-The-Knee Boots, unfortunately I’m late in the game and the grey is sold out everywhere! But whatevers, I’m still down with coppin’ the black ones, they’re just as hot! Since I got a gift certificate from my boss from Zappos.com
, I’m going to put it in good use…I was afraid I didn’t have anything to use it for haha! I’m still searching insanely for the grey version, if you guys know which store has it – holla at me, I’m a 5.5 or 6!

If the Strate boots is sold out in your size, there’s also a sister version called Top. Offers the same perfect combination of fashion and function with a smooth upper and shaft and wider circumference which allows you to tuck in your skinny jeans and create the perfect look for fall.

i have the strate boot in black…. i love them, theyre very flattering and look more expensive than they are. i sorta think they look a little weird from the side though, its something about the heel
OMG, i was looking for these boots everywhere! No one knew who made them! They are hot aren’t they?! Thanks for finding them! i wanted the grey too.
I have these boots. Macys at Herald Square was selling them for $70. I love them!! I may have to get the brown ones too.
God damn, 7 is sold out in all colors!
Those are so cute, but I wish they were leather. I’m trying to find the perfect leather, over the knee, or riding boot that isn’t from Celine because I can not afford those prices.
girl!! you are amazing. i was looking for those all over too but didnt know where the hell to start. THANK YOU~
My sister has those in black. I thought they looked kind of cheap.
LADIES!!! These boots are officially!!! SOLD OUT!!! Zappos.com should write a check to Nitrolicious.com with commission!!!!
kim gomez ~ LOL, you’re too cute! the dark brown one’s are still available on Zappos.com in size 5.5, 6 and 7. also, available on the other links I’ve listed on the post. get them quick! i believe the black ones are sold out!
this message is for Luith –

just got mine yesterday, ordered them from amazon about a week and a half ago. i’ve been looking for flat boots forever! and these are so nice and comfy. i have rather thick calfs and these fit with room for my skinny jeans, i’m soooo stoked!
if your still looking go to fly jane’s website they have both the black and brown in all sizes
i saw these boots in macys before xmas and they are so fug they look so inferior.. but to each his own..
Woah, I bought these about a month ago at Macys; no idea they were gonna be on GG. I feel kinda cool now, heh. They are the BEST boots and they’re super cute. You can roll them down in the front and wear them as knee high boots as well.
You have small feet btw, mine are a size 9.5!
do these run big or true to size?
chineselaundry.com has them! i think they are identical to the TOP — which they have in all colors.
I JUST BROUGHT MINE 2 MIN AGO ON AMAZON FOR 54.99 THE BLACK SUEDE TOP IN A SIZE 9 IT WASTHE LAST 9 LEFT !!! GO TO AMAZON THEY HAVE THE BLACK IN OTHER SIZES FOR 54.99! HURRY! I THINK I MIGHT CHANGE THE HEEL AND TURN IT INTO A SMALL WEDGE LIKE THE STEVEN BY STEVE MADDEN BLONDIE!
I dunno – the price is enticing but I worry about them looking cheap. I’m in very serious search of mid-season black/brown boots. There’s a pair from Steve Madden (Intyce) that resemble the prohibitively expensive Loeffler Randall Olivia-D Ring Flat Boot but I’m so indecisive and dare I say, thrifty…
My Grey ones just came in! I am in love.
Those boots are so amazing! I love Blake Lively’s style on Gossip Girl… I have been buying a lot of my shoes from shopgoldyn.com recently, they seem to always have really high quality things that aren’t too expensive… i would try there!!
Hey! i saw that you love the boots too. i just bought mine (in ash grey!!!) from endless.com
they still have some in stock, but limited sizes. (i’m a size 8 and they still had those!) happy shopping.
wow. funny. i just came across 5 pairs of the grey ones today at Winners….
marshall are still selling the top boot in black for only 49.99.
