Our Favorite New Ways to Wear Ankle Boots With Skinny Jeans

Here at Who What Wear, we dedicate a lot of time to discussing new ways to wear skinny jeans—especially this time of year. Because if one outfit formula comes to mind when we think of fall style, it's the combination of skinny jeans, ankle boots, and a cool jacket. And in the interest of keeping things fresh, today we're rounding up the ankle boot–and–skinny jean outfits we're relying on to get us through the season.

After all, skinny jeans are often tricky to style, as it takes the right fit and cut to look good. Pro tip: Getting the hem of your pants to hit right at or above where your ankle boots stop is the key to nailing the combination. It also comes down to the details: This season, look for patent-leather finishes, pointed-toe silhouettes, bold reds, and metallic details to keep your outfit interesting.
