Rockin’ Dem Boots

Hey fellow B.I.G. peeps. First of all let me apologize for my absence these past couple weeks…sometimes life happens. And a B.I.G. and special thanks to Zette for filling in last week. It was greatly appreciated.

Anyways, about a week and a half ago I loaned a couple pairs of ankle boots to a friend of mine to wear to a Rock n’ Roll party. This got me to thinking, would I have to retire my ankle boots for Spring…or even Fall…the horror! I mean I just bought a pair of ankle boots that are fire…and I don’t feel like I have gotten good use of them yet. So I started researching boot trends…and as it turns out, ankle boots are going to be in for Spring AND Fall. How exciting! I am definitely going to get my money’s worth out of them now.

In fact, ankle boots are noted to be one of the MUST HAVE accessories for Spring and Fall!!!! So let’s discuss the do’s and don’ts of wearing a fierce pair of ankle boots.

Do

1. Wear with boot cut, wide-leg or slim fit jeans

2. Wear with knee length (or a couple inches above the knee) skirts or dresses

3. Rock with a fierce pair of tights if sporting a dress or skirt - preferably a pair that is of a similar color

4. If you got thicker legs, definitely pair them with tights of the same color

5. Pair with jeans and long sweaters

Don’t

1. Wear them with super duper mini-skirts - you will probably look like a lady of the night

2. Wear ankle boots without a heel…YIKES!!!

3. Let socks show over the ankle boot…no matter how much 80s fashion comes back in style, this aint the 80s!

Obviously, the lists above are not exhaustive, but use them as a guide to play with this style. In the words of Heidi Klum, “Auf Wiedersehen” (remember project runway ends tonight).
