Ms. New Bootie

DKNY

As they reappear season after season, boots are perennial staples in our closets — most notably, fall's favorite footwear. The wedge ankle boot, a popular member of the boot family, is known for its simplicity and distinct silhouette. Designers are constantly drumming up ways to recreate the look of this footwear icon. So, it's no surprise that the beloved bootie graced the runway in fall 2011 collections with revamped style.

Check out ten of this season's fresh interpretations after the jump...
