10 Ways to Wear Your Knee-High Boots This Winter
Knee-high boots make their grand entrance into everybody’s wardrobe when fall rolls around. It’s inevitable. Sure, actually putting them on can be tricky if you don’t own a pair with zippers, but the final look is always the same: effortless. Whether you like to style them over your leggings or jeans, pair them with a minidress or an oversize sweater, they always elevate your look. However, when winter starts creeping in, styling them in different ways can become trickier, and they might fall into the jeans-and-leggings category too often for your own liking.
