Kaia Gerber Found the Perfect Boot Trend to Wear With a Micro Minidress

Based on her look for a recent NYC evening out, Kaia Gerber seems to be ready to move on to fall. Gerber's outfit for the unseasonably cool late-August night was as suited for early fall as it gets, and it was a great example of the best boot trend to wear with a minidress. Gerber's three-piece outfit—which consisted of a trench coat, a black micro minidress, and knee-high boots—was both classy and cool.
The boot trend Gerber opted for was riding boots. They provided a casual, grounded contrast to the minidress, making them perfect for a wider variety of occasions. As you know, the riding-boot trend isn't brand-new, but that's a good thing because you know that a pair would be a great investment based on their longevity and versatility. With that, keep scrolling to shop some of my favorite riding boots on the market.
