Whether or not you're excited for the actual NFL games this season, I think we can agree that it's worth hosting a football watch party if only to catch a glimpse of Taylor Swift's fabulous game-day outfits. I mean, I'm already swooning over the burgundy over-the-knee boots Swift just wore to the Chief's opening game on Sept. 5—and admittedly planning more than one fall outfit inspired by the look. So, I'm happy to report that I found her *exact pair* of Giuseppe Zanotti Frannie boots (were $1,610, now $773) available to shop for more than half off. I won't lie, they're still pretty pricey, so I've also taken the liberty of finding a few alternative pairs that come in at less than $250 (you're welcome).

These over-the-knee leather boots, marked down by more than $800 at Farfetch now, are the exact style Swift wore kick off the season in style, and I can totally see why she chose them. Not only is the deep cherry red color set to be *the* color of fall, but the patent leather's shiny finish is seriously show-stopping, while the gold buckle at the ankle adds a nice touch. And those stiletto heels? While they may not have been made for walking, they're certainly made for showing off.

If you love the look of the boots above but don't want to shell out more than $700 to get them, this pair from Kelsi Dagger Brooklyn is a fab alternative. They're made of a soft suede fabric that will make them easy to wear over your favorite leggings or skinny jeans this fall, and they come in both standard and wide widths if you need a little extra room through the calves. Not to mention, they feature a lower, thicker block heel that should make for comfy strolling. Shoppers say they "fit like a dream" and are totally worth their price tag.

If the slick red leather is what you love most about Swift's boots, consider snagging this knee-high style from Sam Edelman that comes in a super similar shade. The heel's totally walkable thanks to its thicker square style and 2.8-inch height, and reviewers rave over how comfortable *and* stylish they are.

To get Swift's look on a budget, opt for these cute over-the-knee boots from Walmart that ring in at just $50. They have a lightly padded insole, 1-inch heel and stretchy faux suede material so, again, you're getting both comfort and style for a total steal. And at this price, it's probably worth scooping up a second pair in a neutral shade so you can wear them all (football) season long.
