Having the right shoes can make a big difference in your comfort and style, whether you need warm snow boots, chic flats for work or just the right heels for holiday parties. These local shops and boutiques are among the area's best places to find hot shoes for the cool seasons.

The boutique also carries scarves, purses and hats, but the fun, funky and functional shoes are definitely the stars of the show.
