Ankle Boots

Ankle boots are one of our ultimate winter accessories; we wear them with pretty much our entire wardrobe. The mistake people make is thinking that one pair is enough. We would always recommend a good black pair and then one in another shade, such as tan or burgundy. Always try to go for a heel you would be comfortable walking in, otherwise you won’t end up wearing them as much as you should. A little tip: the wider the boot sits on the ankle, the thinner your leg will look.
