These 9 Outfits Make Skirts and Boots Look All the Cooler
Just like jeans and sneakers or party dresses and pumps, boots and skirts are a foolproof outfit combo. But we get it. Sometimes, even the best wardrobe mates can get a bit boring.
So in an effort to keep fashion fun—especially when we're wearing boots on repeat—we've scrolled far and wide to come up with outfit inspiration that takes any skirt-and-boot look to the next level. Whether you go all in with a statement coat or jacket, play with pops of color or different textures, or just bring your A game with accessories, it's easy to create several different outfits using the boots and skirts that are already in your closet.
Keep scrolling to see some fire 'fits and shop key complementary pieces. We have a feeling you already know exactly which boots you want to wear with each outfit.
Pair black leather knee-high boots with a matching leather trench for a Matrix meets Mayfair look.
Matching sets make getting dressed up so much easier.
Lean into cooler weather with seasonally appropriate layers to stay warm.
It's worthwhile to invest in a decent pair of tights that can be worn more than once.
Play with different fabrics for an eye-catching outfit.
The exaggerated collar takes this half-zip sweatshirt to the next level.
