Dua Lipa Wore Polarizing Thigh-High Boots Sans Pants, and the Pic Is Going Viral
As temperatures drop, the boots get taller. That's how it goes, right? Well, maybe not. But one thing is certain: Thigh-high boots are having a major moment.
Celebs have been trying out this dramatic boot style for a while lately, but Dua Lipa's recent Instagram post has definitely put the look on the map. In fact, a carousel compilation featuring the photo shared only two days ago has already received twice as many likes and comments as usual. You could say it's a pretty engaging outfit photo.
You don't have to go down an Instagram rabbit hole to find further proof (hey, that's our job), so just keep scrolling to see other stars sporting thigh-high boots and the many ways to style the trend if you're into it, of course. If not, no worries. Uggs, Western-inspired boots, and lug-sole booties are also celeb approved for the season.
Damn, Dua!
