What to wear on feet with cigarette/tapered trousers?

[TooManyHappyMeals]

In the summer I live in tapered trousers and ballet pumps with no socks. A snowy March in the freezing north is not offering me that option. Any suggestions? Chelsea boots? Tucked in or out? I'm feeling a bit clueless but totally sick of jeans and leggings with massive boots on....

Sock boots work well

I wear Chelsea boots with mine

I can't make boots work unfortunately, probably all in my head but I felt a bit clown like with boots and shorter trousers. I have been rotating the same three pairs of trousers at work since November. Ventured back into 7/8 trousers this week but was freezing on Friday. I was wearing more of a loafer than a ballet flat but no socks.

Thanks - sock boots is a new one to me, will have a look at some in the shops. In the meantime have dug out a pair of soft brogues that could work as they're not that far off ballet pumps.

I find the only thing that works for me with his kind of trouser is a loafer if I am not wearing a lighter shoe. Fingers crossed for better weather.

brogues, (you can wear them with socks!) loafers or chelsea boots.

Chelsea boots (with socks) as it's freezing.
