While running errands in New York City with her husband, Cooke Maroney, Jennifer Lawrence showcased a chic ensemble that turned heads—mine at least. The pregnant actress wrapped herself in a long white coat over a green check-print midi dress, a suede shoulder bag, and retro-inspired sunglasses. What truly caught my attention was her unexpected choice of footwear. Eschewing her usual Puma Speedcats and Charvet Slippers, Lawrence opted for croc-embossed knee-high boots—a style loved by French people.

A mainstay in the winter wardrobes of French women, croc-embossed knee-high boots are the easiest way to inject affordable luxury into your look. The best part is that they're on par with suede boots for versatility but a bit more wearable since the material is slightly more water-resistant, meaning they're okay to wear on a cold rainy day—under an umbrella, of course. Often styled with maxi dresses or skirts, this elegant boot trend also looks chic when worn with baggy or straight-leg jeans tucked into them.
As animal prints make a vibrant comeback on runways and city sidewalks alike, the trend of croc boots is set to make a significant impact this winter. If you’re eager to embrace this fashionable trend like Lawrence, read on to shop the best knee-high styles.
