the last of David Bowie.</p> <p>Lazarus has taken the box office by storm; Blackstar, is playing on repeat on Spotify accounts across the capital, and the Starman’s presence can still be felt in fashion, too. </p> <p>There’s little doubt that Bowie was a man of many truly exceptional outfits.</p> <p>And while we’re yet to welcome the return of a star-spangled Lurex catsuit back into popular favour - though we’re watching the rails of Zara in anticipation - there is one ubiquitous must-have for autumn that would definitely have Ziggy Stardust’s seal of approval: silver boots. </p> <div

You won’t regret it. Or, for that matter, spare a second thought for your boring old black pair.</p> <p>I speak as a recently converted adopter of this trend - my current obsession is the Silver Lining boots by London’s latest footwear It-girl Camilla Elphick, which have barely been off my feet during the past two months. </p> <div class="dnd-widget-wrapper context-sdl_editor_representation type-image"><div class="dnd-atom-rendered"><div class="image"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20161114234607im_/https://static.standard.co.uk/s3fs-public/styles/story_medium/public/thumbnails/image/2016/11/08/14/32chung0811a.jpg" width="564" height="1175" alt="32chung0811a.jpg" title="32chung0811a.jpg"/></div></div><div class="dnd-caption-wrapper"> <p>Alexa Chung in Camilla Elphick <em>(Splash News)</em><br/></p> </div></div> <p>It seems I’m in good company.

And just imagine how invaluable these bad boys will be come festive party season.
