You Asked, We Found: Kate Hudson’s Boots

1298/Most Wanted/ZUMA; Finalpixx

I loooooove the tan boots that Kate Hudson is wearing in your “I Really Love My” gallery. Do you know who makes the exact ones she is wearing? I would love to find them and purchase them!“-Michelle Bennigson

Michelle is not the only one! Kate’s boots were such a hit yesterday that practically everyone who saw them has been begging us for the buying information. Since we love with them, we tracked down everything you need to know. They are a classic design from Parisian designer Barbara Bui. The color of Kate’s boots is currently sold out, but if you just love the style, you are in luck. The Barbara Bui boutique in Manhattan has them in stock in dark brown and black for fall/winter. They can be yours– for a whopping $710– by calling 212-625-1938.

If you are more in the mood for a steal than a splurge, try these Nine West boots at zappos.com or these J. Crew boots (thanks to our eagle-eyed readers) for a similar look. – Andrea DeSimone

um…hello!?!? People readers don’t have the money to drop $710 on a pair of boots!!!!! Please do your part and don’t encourage credit card debt, the current plague of Americans!!

There is nothing special about these boots. They are just tan knee high boots. I personally don’t think they are worth $710.. thats just insane to spend on a pair of shoes no matter what they look like!

Treva

JCrew has a very similar pair on their website–Holden leather stacked high-heel boots for $258 that I’m gonna get, which is a bit more affordable. http://www.jcrew.com

I was so hoping the boots and denim shorts trend died with Britney! Bummer to see it back. I agree, these boots are just so-so. Jessica Alba has worn cuter ones, like the buckled pirate versions she sported at the Teen Choice Awards!

I have the JCrew boots. They are insanely comfortable and look almost exactly like the Barbara Bui boots above.

you guys rule for editing your Blog comments about the boots so quickly– changing your estimation of the boots’ price ($710) to “whopping” and adding where else readers could get similar ones for much cheaper. way to go for staying (at least slightly) in touch with your readers’ reality, People!

Check out banana republic…198.00 bucks!

Puga

Please, who would spend that much for THOSE boots!!??!!

vanessa

Just to let everyone know Coach has almost an exact style but for half the price of those Bui boots.

sue

these boots are nice, but I was really loving this one pic you had of her in a taupe wrap sweater which she had cinched tight at the waist with a brown leather belt, i loved both of those pieces. please tell me where to buy or designer, please!

Lyd

I like em alot but i wouldnt pay 700 bucks for em. but i guess if your as rich as her 700 isnt much of a loss

Natalie

Oh my goodness gracious! Who would pay $710 or any less for these boots? I wouldn’t even pay $100 for these boots. They look like any other pair of boots. I personally think they look ugly, especially in the first pic of Kate Hudson holding her son. The boots look OKay in the second pic. I would prefer these sorta of boots over pants. I don’t see how celebs can just go out and spend outrageous money on a pair of boots? WOW.

Erica

Does anyone else miss the 90’s when being in style meant old jeans, flannel shirts and doc martens? All available for pretty cheap (minus the docs, but come to think of it 100 bucks versus 710?) I hate that fashion today is all about labels and outrageously priced crap. If I could make my own clothes I would just to be unique and because fabric is cheap. Just look at Project Runway, they spend only 100 dollars or so for fabric. Yound girls today are so tied up into these “it” items to find their own identity. Why should we buy 710 dollar boots like Kate Hudson, do we have her bank account? No! I don’t want anything I can’t afford.

alyssa

I fell in love with these boots, but I wouldn’t spend 700 to update my whole fall wardrobe, let alone buy a single pair of boots. I really love the color though and I found some that look almost exactly the same but with a small buckle on the side at Macy’s for $150! I think they are even cuter then the 700 dollar ones.

chopsueyluey

Sheesh…and I only wear KEEN boots…….

Amanda

Can anyone tell me who makes the exact boots Shanna Moakler was wearing in the picture posted on here yesterday, it is from her Smirnoff beverage commercial…the white ones. I am dying to find some but I have looked everywhere. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Jennifer

Just trying to see if anyone has info on the shanna moakler boots posted above. Thanks!!

holly

What type of boots is Amanda Peet wearing in the beginning of the movie “Alot Like Love”?

Kim

I agree about the taupe sweater cinched at the waist! I loved it! I saw Instyle had it in the “Look for Less” but the pieces they showed were not close to “the look.” I was hoping to find the actual designer info intead.

Julie

Sue, Kim~ don’t know if you’ll check back here, but I’ve been looking for Kate’s sweater, too. I think I finally found it. It’s a Vince cashmere sweater. That exact style may be sold out (didn’t see it online at Saks, Neiman, Shopbop, eluxury, etc), but a few people are selling it on ebay.

Carolina

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knew who made Kate Hudson’s dress that she wore the the Melbourne premiere of You Me and Dupree. It’s the long brown chiffon printed one. Any help,,,please !!!!! I have looked EVERYWHERE and I cannot find it !!! Thank you !

Julie

The one I saw is red. It’s by Collette Dinnigan (according to celebritystyleguide.com.

Carolin

Hi and thanks for your feedback regarding the dress, however, the one I am referring to is brown chiffon that is long and flowing. It is low and wide cut in the front, 3/4 length sleeve, it has a solid brown panel in front and has a turquoise flower pattern on the brown chiffon.

If ANYONE knows who the designer is of this dress, I will love you !!!! Seriously though, any help would be great. Thank you.

Tracy

Does anyone the designer of the boots Cameron Diaz wore in Holiday in the scene where she & Jude are on their outing at a castle? Any help would be appreciated!

Amy

It’s sad that all the people who are looking for these boots (including me) have a result for $710!!! And the cheaper pair are all sold out. It’s nothing special, but they’re cute. We don’t have to “splurge” on anything. just “steal”!
