Over The Knee Boots

Over the knee boots were considered ‘forbidden’ for a long time. They tended to be provocative, sometimes even vulgar. However, in the last few seasons, all fashion experts, influencers, It girls, and bloggers started wearing them with everyday pieces – jeans, leather skirts, and long sweaters. And let us tell you – they look fantastic.

Over the knee boots or thigh-high ones are great for fall and winter wear. The most popular ones are made of suede, in neutral shades. However, there are some exceptions as well – we all remember Rihanna’s denim thigh high boots that she has done with Manolo Blahnik.

Here is how you can style over the knee boots for both casual and elegant events.

4 Ways to Wear Over The Knee Boots | How to Style Over The Knee Boots | Outfit Ideas + Lookbook

Circumference

One pet peeve when it comes to over the knee boots is slouching. It is so embarrassing to have everything put together from your makeup to the outfit only for the shoes to let you down. This is why you need to purchase boots with the right circumference.

First, you will want to measure your calf to be able to determine the rim of the shaft. It is advisable to pick a pair with a calf circumference that is one inch larger than the size of your calf, to give room for you to wear other things like leggings and denim.

Shaft Height

Over the knee boots are meant to go above your knees to bring that sexy look. For this reason, it is good to ensure that the boots you choose go 3 or more inches above your knees, depending on your preference.

You can do it by fitting them to see whether you are comfortable with the height. Do not judge without trying them out least you find the boots are not as high as you thought. Remember, boots do not have a standard height, and the worst thing you can do is purchase without fitting.

Fabric

Choosing the right fabric is fundamental. You don’t want your boots rolling down your ankles while you are busy doing errands, due to the poor choice of fabric. If possible, purchase leather or suede boots since they are less likely to stretch.

Leather material is also comfortable and durable as opposed to synthetic boots, which tend to be sweaty. It would, therefore, make sense to add some extra coins to purchase leather boots, if comfort is your priority. Besides, they bring an illusion of class, making one feel sophisticated and fabulous about themselves.

Over the knee boots are an excellent investment if you want to have an edgy look. Furthermore, they are perfect for winter and other cold seasons. If you plan on purchasing a pair, it is good to consider the above elements to ensure you get value for your money. Once you get the perfect boots, you can pair them with dresses, skirts and skinny jeans and still look stylish. Thank me later.
