Victoria Beckham Is Determined to Make This Weird Boot Trend a Thing This Winter
Victoria Beckham's label is all about making getting dressed in the morning easier; its crowd-pleasing silhouettes make gentle nods to trends rather than anything too experimental. However, in her autumn/winter 2019 collection, VB paired many of her outfits with a strange footwear choice: over-the-knee heeled boots with a peep toe. In her fashion week show, they were worn with everything from knee-length skirts to floral midi dresses.
Ever since her February show, Victoria Beckham has been wearing them for almost every appearance. These are divisive shoes, and she's styling them in an equally rule-breaking fashion, mixing bold prints and unusual colours. She typically pairs the boots, which are very tight on the leg and have a legging-like effect, with midi skirts and dresses. Earlier in the year, Victoria wore her peep-toes with depths-of-winter outfits, showing these aren't just a trans-seasonal shoe. It might sound like an unpopular style, but if anyone can make a skintight peep-toe boot mainstream, it's Victoria Beckham. Keep scrolling to see how she's been wearing the boots.
On Victoria Beckham
Style Notes: At the airport this month, Victoria Beckham mixed two heritage check prints, wearing her trusty red peep-toe boots.
Style Notes: VB loves wearing these boots with midi skirts—and for her white flared skirt, she opted for the butter-hued leather boots.
Style Notes: VB is really playing with her adventurous styling side with these boots, mixing a leopard print with a windowpane-checked skirt suit. It's a weird mix, but somehow it works.
Style Notes: VB isn't just having fun with prints—here she clashes lilac with a bright postbox red.
Style Notes: VB plays with unusual proportions with her waistband and the revealed toe.
Style Notes: Victoria kept her outfit streamlined and in a neutral colour palette, keeping the boots the talking point of the outfit.
Style Notes: VB matches her boots to her base layer roll-neck.
Style Notes: Leather is a key trend for next autumn, and she paired her red peep-toe boots with a black leather pencil skirt.
Style Notes: Again, VB goes for a streamlined all-black look, making the boots the only items that show skin.
