The Boot Outfits That Are All Over NYC
We’re right on the edge of fall and winter, which means that boots are wardrobe essentials at this point. So what are the coolest ways to wear them this season? I always look to NYC fashion insiders to see which shoe silhouettes they’re buying and exactly how they’re styling them. After all, if there is one group among the fashion set who knows how to style boots best, it’s NYC girls.
Here, find inspiration for cool winter boot outfits that you’ll want to wear for the months ahead. From ensembles with jeans that are fit for the office to weekend looks you’ll want to wear on repeat to a way to wear them for a formal event, these are the freshest ways to style your boots right now. Go on to see five outfits that have a fashion-girl stamp of approval and shop pieces to try them for yourself.
