Fashion People Vibe Well With the Ankle Boots of the Season
We know you’re serious about your shoe wardrobe. Since we too approach our footwear offering with careful consideration each season, we thought we’d take a moment to discuss the one silhouette that continues to make waves in the fashion world—aka the style that deserves a hero spot in that coveted rotation. Yep, we’re talking about square-toe ankle boots.
This trend has crept around for a while as a sophisticated and forward alternative to the pointed-toe booties everyone wears. But if you honestly take one scroll through the Instagram feeds of just about any style setter, it’s pretty clear that now is the time to square off once and for all. And to be honest, that’s pretty easy to do as a slew of It brands currently stock beautiful square-toe styles, including these popular By Far boots. Scroll down for some shoe inspiration, and shop must-have pairs to complete your winter shoe collection.
If you're on the hunt for a new go-to work uniform, test out this look with the tan trousers, a crisp blazer, and brown square-toe boots.
While pointed boots would've worked here as well, the square silhouette gives this already-forward fit an even fresher feel.
Show off everything your boots have to offer with a pair of cropped jeans and coordinating outerwear.
Break the "rules" and go for brown ankle boots with an all-black ensemble instead of the alternative.
A pop of color never hurt anyone, especially in the form of pink statement boots with a chill denim ensemble.
You can never go wrong with eye-catching patent booties paired with a dress and blazer.
Go for the cool vibe with printed pants, a leather jacket, and square boots.
