"Mistake" #1: Half-tucking your jeans into boots.

While skinnies are the common jeans of choice to tuck into booties, a looser pair where the jeans bunch is actually quite forward, despite the fact that it may not be the most streamlined look. Right, Hailey Rhode Bieber?

It's time to finally break that age-old styling trope that you can't wear navy and black together. Jessica Biel clearly agrees, pairing navy boots rather than black with her dark jeans.

Stirrup leggings are polarizing in nature. While we've seen them styled with sneakers a lot, the casual look over sophisticated pointed boots feels so wrong that it's right. We're here for this, Victoria Beckham.

"Mistake" #4: Going for leather on leather and not breaking up the two pieces.

Going for leather boots with leather pants like Jasmine Tookes is wearing here isn't always the preferred choice, because the booties can get lost in the look. But the leather-on-leather vibe is actually quite cool.

"Mistake" #5: Letting your ankle socks poke out of the boots.

We typically see either a no-sock look with ankle boots or a more statement tall sock style. But if you're feeling ankle socks and want to show them off like Gigi Hadid here, go for it.
