Your Ultimate Boots Guide For This Winter

If you've been following me for a while now you will know how obsessed I am with boots. At the beginning of fall, I had a huge clear out which was very much in order as I could not fit one extra pair of shoes in my storage but with all the recent PR samples lately, my collection has definitely overgrown again (hey, I'm not complaining and as long as I get to wear all of them, I'm happy!). Personally, I try to avoid overly trendy pairs as I know I probably won't maximise their wear, and instead opt for pairs that go with a variety of outfits and these are the ones I want to show you today! I've featured most of these on the blog already so let's recap, shall we?!

1. OVER-THE-KNEE BOOTS

I will start with my favourite style, and the one you must have this season! They were pretty big last year too but this season somehow the trend exploded even further and what can I say, this girl here loves them! Over-the-knee boots not only give any outfit extra fashionista points, they are versatile and perfect for those winter days when you want something a little more covering (they are super warm over pants!). They look great with mini sweater dresses and skirts, but equally amazing with denim and pleather trousers! My favourite styles are definitely on suede and tie backs to avoid them falling down as you walk.

2. KNEE HIGH BOOTS

If OTKs are a little too much for you, a fun way of trying the trend in a slight variation is by adding knee-high boots to your shoe arsenal. Knee-high boots are equally comfy and they look right with so many different outfit variations. Not only can you rock them during the weekend for play, they also work well for the office environment. Designers have focused on slouchy and skin-tight styles this season so there is a style to suit every mood. For me, knee-high boots look amazing in suede and leather material, but I can't deny how amazing the patent pair I've linked below looks.

3. RED BOOTS

I have yet to find my perfect pair but imagine how amazing red boots would look for a Christmas outfit! It's undeniable that red has been the colour of the season and whilst I have added red pieces to my wardrobe, like dresses and sweaters, my shoe collection is looking overly black (does that justify adding a new pair to it?). Pair it with all-black ensembles, but also with denim and a cable knit sweater for a more casual but comfy look, and go for vinyl styles for trendy vibes.

4. LACE-UP BOOTS

Altuzarra and The Row rocked combat/lace-up boots at their A/W 2017 catwalk shows, and I expect them to be huge this season. Apart from heeled pairs which we have been seeing everywhere on the high street, and which I featured here and here. This pair of boots featured here are a lot more chunky and grunge, and I can't think of a better companion for those harsh wet winter days ahead.

5. WHITE BOOTS

And last but not least, the most controversial of them all but definitely one to remember; white boots! They've been on a high for quite a few seasons now, despite being not for everyone, proving to be timeless. I wore mine non-stop during fall and have yet to incorporate them into my winter wardrobe but the best thing with these is that they work amazingly well for spring and summer too, so that's a pair you will be bringing out all year round. Plus, the white boot doesn’t feel as heavy or tired as black and it is the perfect way to inject some "light" into your winter outfits.

Tell me which is your favourite style? Have you added any new pairs to your collection?

Thanks for reading beauties and enjoy the weekend ahead!
