Not-so Plain Brown

Boot up right with a few well-placed details.

by Kara Nelsonand Monica Lepretre

	A pair of high-shine, high-heel boots by Michael Antonio will give any old pair of jeans a brand new outlook — $40 at Shoe Nami (3118 Magazine St., 895-1717; 3319 Severn Ave., Metairie, 885-0805).
The wooden heel and braided accents on this pair of boots by Volatile give them a look that's casual and just a little bit cowgirly — $48 at Hickory Chicks (1915 Hickory Ave. Harahan; 324-2425).
	The sensibly heeled Uma Boot in faux crocodile with a gold logo detail is unmistakably Tory Burch — $595 at Victoria's Uptown (7725 Maple St., 861-8861).
