High On Style

1 min read

Approach winter with cool-girl style and take on this season’s famed thigh-high boots.

We’ve been obsessed with this type of statement footwear since Julia Roberts strutted over-the-knee block-heel boots in Pretty Woman, but this season’s galoshes have been given a contemporary twist. Designers like Stuart Weitzman and Elisabetta Franchi have led the fashion pack with a plethora of funky styles, which have been crafted using various luxurious fabrics, including suede and exotic skins such as python.

Skin tight thigh-high boots are brilliant for balancing proportions. Wear with weightier fabrics, which have an oversized temperament, as they will drape over your top half and allow your boots to elongate your silhouette. Remember that it’s important to stick to a three-inch rule when baring skin to keep your look tasteful and elegant. This coveted accessory can also do wonders to a simple pair of jeans and a distressed tee. Fall footwear is a great opportunity to update your casual wardrobe and enables an effortless transition from day to night.
