No Offense to Sneakers, But These Boots Are a Far Chicer Match for Leggings
When in Aspen, stylish Angelenos wear leggings in one way and one way only: tucked into riding boots. Sorry, but it's just a fact. If you know what's good for you, you'll follow suit, even if you're not headed to Kemo Sabe, Betula, or Ajax. Why? Because Kendall Jenner said so. She styled her go-to pair of Commando Classic Leggings in the most elegant, non-sporty way while spending the long weekend with Hailey Bieber and Fai Khadra in Colorado's chicest winter ski destination.
Jenner was spotted grabbing coffee with her two close friends in Aspen's downtown district wearing her leggings tucked into a cool (and very fitting for the locale) pair of Ann Demeulemeester's Nes Riding Boots. She layered a black, hourglass-shaped Alaïa blazer on top of a matching turtleneck before finishing off the ensemble with a brown fur cap, sunglasses, leather gloves, and a brown version of The Row's Idaho Tote.

For a long time there, the only shoes anyone was wearing with leggings were sneakers, utilizing them solely for fitness-related activities. However, the tides are turning, particularly with A-list dressers like Jenner and Bieber, who recently styled leggings with Mary Jane ballet flats. For colder climates, though, there's only one solid choice of shoes to wear with leggings, and riding boots are it—period.
