What to wear with boots

So I’ve not had a pair of knee high boots for years because of chunky legs but having managed to lose some weight I have just bought the vegan ones from M & S. Now I haven’t got a clue what to wear them with! Any suggestions please?

Knee high boots are a brilliant way to revivify your wardrobe - you can wear pretty much anything with them (though trousers are best avoided).

The thing to do is to try them on with every dress and skirt you own and be amazed at how they change the proportions of an outfit. Particularly when you add various lengths and shapes of coat. Just see what you like best and do more of that.

If you don’t have (m)any skirts and dresses you’ll need to start investigating the limitless options. Some people like their boots with mini skirts or or short cord dress; others prefer an A line skirt that just meets the top of the boots; or a longer mid-calf skirt (flared or straight) that hides the top of the boots. It’s perfectly possible to wear them with an ankle or floor length dress, as long as the bulk of the boot doesn’t spoil the line of the skirt.

They really are enormous fun to wear.

Thanks
i hadn’t thought about trying on my existing dresses and skirts to get a feel for what shapes and lengths work best.
