And if you are wearing ankle boots and jeans today please post a picture!!!

Oh how I miss leggings! At least they were tight and would fit right inside boots Sad

So do I roll the jeans up like the first picture?

Or do I let them bunch and look a bit saggy like picture 2?

Thanks for looking and answering!!

Both! I do ankle visible in warmer weather/with shorter boots, and scrunched up when colder/higher ankle boots. I like both.

I have the same issue with tapered trousers and heeled loafers. No idea what to wear apart from pop socks.

Someone needs to invent very fine knit (not nylon) socks in a nude shade

I like ankle boots with a flash of ankle so roll my jeans up.

Just discovered those 360 jeans at Next and they're great, short in the leg so fab with skinny jeans, and surprisingly decent for Next (I used to be a huge fan but recently have started shouting "no, no, no, bloody hell no" as I flick through the catalogue). They're skinny at the ankle, too, which I love.

I love the look of1 but unfortunately it just makes my legs look even shorter and dumpier, so I've mine tucked in today. I'm 5ft 3.

Thanks Smile

Boots are from Russell & Bromley - they're quite high on the ankle so if I had turn ups I'd look absurd and I like warm ankles anyway so all is good

I can't be doing with cold ankles, or scrunched jeans, so I just wear cosy socks and have them showing! Like this.

Rolled up for me, makes a bit of a feature too. Never tucked into boots. Scrunched around the top is ok too but prefer the roll.

I love the specificity of this thread.

Here's a question. I have Hudson Riley's in navy suede and fancy they might work well with 'a sock' when I sport them with black skinnies. But what nature of sock, bpretty please? A blue, a black or maybe a charcoal or lighter grey?

Oh and I vote Pic 1, OP.

Soz for highjack. I just thought 'I have found my people' Grin

ArieltheMermaid1720 · 23/09/2016 20:43

ArieltheMermaid1720 · 23/09/2016 20:46

Right sorry I don't know what I'm doing, anyway they're the side zip imposter boots.

MyNewHobbyIsGin · 23/09/2016 20:51

Right well all I've learned is that I NEED some coqueterra boots

some of those pups are off the scale

Itrynotto · 23/09/2016 22:54

I think I have found them on office but it looks like they aren't my size 😔

ChippyMinton · 23/09/2016 23:10

I can't resolve this dilemma so bought a pair of 'mini-bootcut' jeans today to wear over my boots ConfusedSmile
