I'm constantly in fashion stalker mode trying to keep up with Taylor Swift's latest outfits. After all, whether she's hitting the town with her besties or cheering on her boyfriend Travis Kelce at a Kansas City Chiefs game, I can always count on her to supply some serious style inspo. Needless to say, the pop mogul did not disappoint when she stepped out for dinner at Nobu in NYC on Friday night. She was spotted wearing a retro, metallic-fastened blazer and matching mini skirt for the outing, but it was her pair of thigh-high leather boots from Chloe that truly stole the show in my eyes.

Swift is definitely still in her confident siren era—especially when it comes to her footwear choices. Girl has been rocking bold and sexy thigh-high boots on repeat for months now—and at this point, I might have to take the plunge and follow in her footsteps (literally). While a superstar like Swift may have the dough to splurge on designer styles (like these Giuseppe Zanotti beauties that cost more than a grand), there are plenty of equally stylish lookalikes out there that are a lot more friendly to a wallet like mine.

If you're also itching to take thigh-high boots for a spin, read on for three similar black styles that'll help you nail Swift's vibe for less than $300. Don’t worry, you can thank me later.

1. Steve Madden Leather Bramble Boots

Steve Madden

Chic, sleek and sexy, these pointy-toed Steve Madden boots are made of genuine leather and have a pull-on design with a half-zipper at the bottom, making them easier to slip in-and-out of. The 3-inch block heel adds some height, but thanks to its shape, shouldn't have you tripping or teetering during your own night on the town. While I love the Taylor-approved black leather option, there’s also brown leather and tan suede variations to choose from.

2. Dolce Vita Leather Lupin Boot

If you’re looking for a boot style with a chunkier heel, this luxe, Brazilian-made leather pair has you covered. The 3.5 inch wooden block heel allows for more comfortable walking than a stiletto, and they come in half-sizes should you fall somewhere in the middle. Not only that, they also have a trendy asymmetrical shaft that won't just flatter your leg, but also make the boots more comfy at the knee.

3. Franco Sarto Angeli Leather Over the Knee Boot

Prefer to nix the heel altogether? These flat boots are winter-friendly and great for schlepping it in style. They're made with a faux leather upper that has a slick and shiny look, while the classic rounded-toe design gives you the best of both worlds in terms of style and comfort. Even better, the pair is currently on sale for just over $100. IDK about you, but I'm sold.
