Over-the-Knee Boots

18/4/2016

Over-the-Knee Boots are featuring quite heavily for Autumn/Winter, and are often being used in store look-books or magazines. For women of a certain age, I do think you have to be careful not to look like your doing your own interpretation of Julia Roberts in Pretty Women, before she was whisked away by Richard Gere! But with some careful styling these can add a very stylish element to your look.

I love the Country Road brown suede flat over-the-knee boots, in fact most of the styles I have chosen are flat. I think if you want to minimize the 'streetwalker' look then low heels as opposed to high are the way to go. All of these boots would work well  with leggings and/or jeans and a tunic top or chunky jumper, as well as styled with dresses. See the photos below, and check out my Pinterest page for more outfit ideas.

    I have to confess I am not a fan of heels. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE heels and think they do wonders for elongating your legs, it is more that I cannot wear them anymore due to the extra instability they induce in me. Also being a stay at home mum, I do not really have the occasion to wear them. 

    I do own a gorgeous pair of black suede, (with gold studs on the back), block heel Zara ankle boots, which I love, and when I am feeling brave or dressing-up I will resort to. 

    So.. I am always on the look out for gorgeous, dressy flats or low heeled shoes, so I may feature more of these than heels. But don't despair if your a heel devotee I promise to scour the shops to bring you the best on these too!!
