One could say that these kinds of shoes are not always part of our wardrobe, but they definitely are an essential shoe for the winter season.
We are referring to boots, and more specifically knee-high boots, which have become a must-have shoe for the winter season in recent years! Their presence on catwalks, collections by renowned fashion houses and street-style looks, showcases that they are not just a simple trend. As a matter of fact, we can safely say that these kinds of boots are a classic piece that every woman should have in her collection.
They are undoubtedly the type of shoe that with the right combination of clothes, could lead to an elegant, feminine and impressive day-to-night outfit.
In this post, you will find a guide that will help you through many street-style looks, on how you can wear, combine and incorporate knee-high boots into your own looks.
No.1: With a mini dress
A classic and safe combination, ideal for an evening outing. A mini dress along with a pair of mid-calf boots is as sexy as it should be and is surely to turn heads. It’s also a way to wear your mini dress during the winter without having your legs get cold.
No.2: With a mini skirt
Another favourite combination that can be worn from day to night and on many occasions. Pair your mini skirt with a sweater and flat knee-high boots for an afternoon coffee, or with a shirt and boots with a thin or chunky heel for a casual drink or a night out.
No.3: With a midi skirt
An A-line midi skirt goes perfectly with such a boot and that is because of its length. A very good choice for a chic outfit for the office, a business meeting or a Sunday brunch or lunch.
No.4: With shorts and an oversized blazer
Knee-high boots are also considered part of fall trends. You will see this combination from many famous influencers on numerous street style appearances and many more. You can wear your most classic boots with a twist, with a pair of baggy shorts and/or a jacket, to give a different sense to your style! For a simple outfit with basic pieces (white T-shirt and shorts), add an oversized blazer and these boots and you will instantly upgrade your look.
No.5: With a pleated skirt
A pleated skirt could not possibly be paired better with any other boot style. Ideally for this type of skirt, wide calf-length boots are the most suitable option and can create the most fashionable look. The same goes for maxi pleated dresses.
No.6: Skinny jeans or flare jeans
Boots that are wider at the knee can be comfortably worn with skinny jeans by tucking the jeans inside the boot. You may consider this an ‘old-school’ combination, however, famous influencers honour it quite a lot to this day, since it’s a safe combination. If you are ‘bored’ of knee-high boots and you have already worn them a lot, then a pair of flare jeans can hide away their height and make them appear like a completely different pair of boots.
No.7: With leggings
Upgrade a simple and comfy look, with leggings and knee-high boots. Combine them with an oversized knit, with a blazer or jacket/coat and you will create a look that will not go unnoticed.
You can then wear and utilise your knee-high boots in many different ways. So, if you own such a pair in your wardrobe, then it’s time to incorporate it, especially now that the weather is still cold.
