Five Ways to Wear Ankle Boots
Want to know what the most burning question has been on GYPO readers’ lips lately? I’ll bet you can guess from the title.
How the heck do you wear ankle boots?!?
They’re cute, no doubt, but these little buggers can be a bit tricky to style. When I bought my first pair, they sat in the closet for almost an entire season with no wear. When I finally got up the nerve to pair them with some jeans, I was hooked and eager to find other ways to wear them. Before long, I was experimenting with all kinds of ways to pair them up and ready to add to my ankle boot collection.
Here are five of my favorite ways to pair up ankle boots.
1. Ankle Boots with Ankle Jeans
Well, duh, that just makes sense, right? Ankle jeans were practically made for ankle boots and retailers are getting on the bandwagon with this trend. There’s hardly a store you’ll walk into this fall that doesn’t have some cute ankle jeans that are the perfect length to fall just above your ankle boots.
2. Ankle Boots with Cuffed Skinny Jeans
If your skinny jeans are longer than ankle length, just cuff them right above the top of your boot. Easy peasy!
3. Ankle Boots with Boyfriend Jeans
Take a cue from Rosie Huntingdon-Whiteley and pair your slouchy boyfriend jeans with a cute pair of ankle boots. Throw on a t-shirt, scarf and jacket and you’re instantly chic for fall.
Or try the trend with a military jacket and white tee.
4. Ankle Boots With Socks
Scrunch some wool socks above your ankle boots when pairing them with skinny jeans or leggings for a cute and cozy look.
5. Ankle Boots With Dresses/Skirts
Swap out your typical heels and try a pair of tights with ankle boots this fall. It’s a modern look that’s sure to instantly update your outfit.
