We all love wearing boots or want to wear boots more often but need inspiration on the different ways to wear boots throughout the year. There are different types of boots need different type of styles which bring that pop to an outfit and show your personal style. 

If you have short legs, favor slim-fitted boots with heels and pair them with a slim-fitting mini skirts or slim pants, or tights in a matching color to add length to your legs, for example  try wearing a mini skirt with ankle boots to create a longer leg line.

If you have wide feet, go for boots that have a round or almond-shaped toe rather than a pointed one. Avoid straps or buckles near the base of the boots, and try wearing bootcut pants over them to minimize the width of your feet.

There are two ways to wear boots with pants and jeans: If you have slim/skinny fit pants, choose ankle or knee high boots to tuck your pants/jeans into, slouch boots are more comfy to use that style. If you have wider leg pants, like flared or boot cut jeans, choose narrow, smooth plain boots without buckles or straps and wear the pants over them.

For combining boots and skirts&dresses, the general rule is the shorter the skirt the longer the boots would be, like thigh-high boots look great with short or mini skirts, ankle high boots go well with maxi skirts and dresses. Try knee-high slouch boots with longer skirts, and wear mid-calf boots with a skirt or dress at the knee.

If you wear heeled boots with a fuller dress or skirt, it can fall just above the top of the boot. If your dress is more form-fitting, it should come to a few inches above the boot or knee.
