Shoezone to Amaze Your Feet

Ankle Boots

Why they keep coming back: Said to have been inspired by the footwear of 19th-century soldiers, ankle boots are “easy for women of all calf sizes to wear―and you can get the look and the height of a boot without having to go full-length under trousers,” says Robert Verdi.

Keep them if: They’re “made from fine leather in classic colors, like black, brown, and dark blue,” says Finney, and any necessary rehabbing can be done easily at a shoe-repair shop.

Toss them if: They have an obvious faux finish, like lizard, which can make the boots seem cheap, or if “the toes are too pointy, which makes your feet look a bit funny,” says Charles Malka. And retire boots with studs, fold-over flaps, or other touches that scream of-the-moment fashion.

• Left: With dark tights. On top, you could really wear any number of dresses, but I’ve chosen a very of-the-moment girly floral dress and black leather jacket combo. Difficulty level: Easy as pie.
• Center: With cropped pants. Notice how that little chunk of white flesh visually breaks up my leg line? Yeah, it’s not the most flattering thing in the world but it does have a fashion-y vibe that I like. You could wear dark tights under your pants to streamline the look (or add warmth when its cold). Try this look with harem pants if you’re uber brave; cigarette pants if you’re like me and slightly less of a risk-taker. Difficulty level: Hard
• Right: With leggings. This season, there are dozens of prints and fabrics to choose from for your leggings. The simplest solution is to pick black leggings with black ankle boots. Tuck in or scrunch over depending on the circumference of the boot shaft. Difficulty level: Intermediate
• Not shown: Another option would be to wear your ankle boots with skinny jeans, but I figure you’ve seen enough of me in those. The look is similar to leggings except, of course, you’d be wearing a more substantial pair of pants.

Another growing trend laterly is the Ankle Boots Stars have been wearing this look with everything from shrts to dresses to skinny jeans.

I think it’s fabulous.

Ankle boots cut your legs off at the ankle. This is only ok for those with long legs (who have plenty to spare) but for the rest of us it ain’t doing us any favors.

So it’s not suitable for girl.

Celebrities have been pairing these with otherwise gorgeous cocktail dresses on the red carpet, and worn with skinny pants… well, that don’t mean they look good on you too. I myself got a long leg and quite slim body, so I;m so happy that i would live ok with this new trend and got a nice ankle boot already.

Ankle boots are perfect for chilly spring days. They give ample coverage, but are not overly warm, and they are so cute!

They can be  the perfect choice for this spring. This leather Western-style boot comes in a variety of colors, including black, tan and stone (pictured) and a trendy metallic silver.

The low heel gives a bit of lift and doesn’t sacrifice the comfort that Nicole shoes are known for.

Americana is one of the big trends for fall, so you’ll be sure to get a lot of wear out of the Passionate.

Pair these with a short skirt or your favorite jeans and you’ve got a great spring look! Remember, one of the best things about the ankle boot is it’s versatility – this little boot can go over skinny jeans or leggings or look fabulous beneath a boot cut pant.

Ankle boots can come in all colors, styles and shapes – some have no heel, some have a spike, some look use pleating as detail while others employ buttons and buckles. The style options in the bootie are really endless and you’ll see them paired with all kinds of fashion from jeans (boot leg or skinny) to dresses and leggings to short skirts or hot stove pipe pants.
