This week, I felt the chill of a slight breeze. Which only means one thing — it's boot season, baby!
And there is only one pair I've had my eye on for this Autumn.
Watch: The ultimate work shoes, according to the hosts of Nothing To Wear. Post continues below.
On TikTok, you might have caught this year's viral boot of the season, with over seven million views to the hashtag.
They've been spotted on the feet of our favourite fashion 'It' girls, Olivia Rodrigo, Addison Rae, Miley Cyrus and Jennifer Aniston.
Of course, they're none other than the Frye Campus boots.

They're not a new thing. The boots were actually created in the 70s and have stood the test of time.
The boots have had a resurgence online for the last few cool seasons and have popped up again this year just in time for Aussie Autumn.
The style is so classic, it's chic, it's versatile, it's…. $700 AUD. Welp.

There goes that dream. Until I found the ultimate Australian dupe, for less than A QUARTER of the price.
In a routine check for any pairs of heavily discounted Frye boots on eBay (did I mention that they're also incredibly in demand and impossible to get your hands on?!), I came across the Therapy Fever Tall Boots.
I'm already a huge fan of Therapy boots and have been known to live in these come winter-time, so when I found these, I added to cart immediately.
The verdict? They. Didn't. Even. Need. Breaking. In.
The boots were almost an exact dupe of their $700 counterparts and also had the added bonus of being ridiculously comfy and suited to a whole day of walking around the office. Huzzah!

They come in four different colours; natural (aka. the closest to the Frye 'banana' shade), as well as chocolate, black and a chocolate faux suede.
For my wider-calf girlies, I got you, they're a little more of a snugger fit than the Frye's, but they aren't tight.
They will stretch out after a few wears, as per all good faux leather boots.

These boots are now going viral… in our office, with a lot of my colleagues adding to cart or finding other great dupes.
