Known as one of the quintessential fashion pieces of the ’90s, Doc Martens are definitely on trend in ’09. Hate them or love them, we have spotted these ecclectic boots on stylish celebs, such as: Solange, Amber Rose and most recently, Ciara.
Docs came back on the scene via British hipsters (part of the UK “New Rave” movement) in the fall ‘06 and started trickling back on runways in the U.S. earlier this year — with the help of designer Marc Jacobs. Peep some of our Doc Marten picks below. Are you feelin’ the DM trend?
*1. PASCAL RED – $110 // 2. WHITE SOFTY ANGEL WINGS – $150 // 3. YELLOW SMOOTH – $98 // *4. 1460′s in GOLD – $85.60 // 5. CHERRY RED DARCIE’s – $130 // 6. CORSET [BLACK+SILVER] – $150 // *7. BLACK PATENT LAMPER – $115 // 8. WHITE+AQUA FLORAL PRINT – $120
I had some when I was in the 9th grade and they hurt my feet so bad and @ WilPower right.

I have a feeling chokers might come back lol…. right along with knee high and thigh high tights!! (reference Britney Spears 1st video)
this is not a new trend, but it’s very cute! i posted about it on my blog: http://www.urbangirllove.com. I LOVE Dr. Martens! Go girls that aren’t afraid to take risks!
WTF?? WHY?? WHO?? NOT A GOOD LOOK. . . LOL!!!
Sorry but all I can think is, “Ya mama wears combat boots” LOL
# 59. Ginarae – while I agree that people don’t seem to care about the origins of a trend. The boots were not intended for use by anyone in particular. They were made in the 40′s and taken up by skinheads 20 years later. THEN punks adopted the trend…
Let’s not make mountains out of ant hills.
Otherwise, they’re but that’s kind of their appeal.

OH SNAP THE DOC MARTENS R COMING BACK, I REMEMBER WHEN PEOPLE WERE ROCKING THESE INT E 90′S. IT WAS THE BOOTS AND THE SANDALS, AND WHEN YOU COUlDN’T AFFORD THE DOC YOU GOT THE KNOCK-OFFS AND COLORED THE STITCHING YELLOW WITH A HIGHLIGHTER OR MARKER.
ALL OFF THE SUBJECT, AND ITS JUST MY OPINION, BUT I AM TIRED OF SEEING AMBER WITH THESE TIGHTS ON. YOU LEAVE NO ROOM FOR CHANCE ON A HOT SUMMER DAY YOU OUT AND ABOUT AND MARY START SWEATING AND STANKING. THAT FUNK IS GONNA CATCH SOME UNEXPECTING PASSERBYERS ATTENTION AND MAKE THEIR HAIRNOSE STAND.
NOSE HAIRS STAND! ITS 3:00 A.M.lol

Thanks for your post. I would also love to say a health insurance broker also works for the benefit of the actual coordinators of any group insurance policy. The health insurance broker is given a listing of benefits desired by somebody or a group coordinator. Such a broker will is try to find individuals or maybe coordinators that best match those requirements. Then he reveals his advice and if each party agree, the actual broker formulates a contract between the 2 parties.
