Essential Date Wear: Over The Knee Boots

Marley Boot, Faith £140

Marley leather side tassle over the knee flat boot, Faith £140

Over the knee boots are one of this year’s unmissable trends.  They ooze sex appeal and can be dressed up or down depending on your  mood  – and here’s some of our favourites.

They’re all over the High Street in a variety of styles, textures and colours, from flats to stilettos and suede to black patent, although if you’re looking a pair that you can wear every day we suggest leaving the black patent on the shelf!

To pull them off, think about proportions.  If you are short, buy a pair with a bit of a heel that come just above the knee and pair with short skirts, cosy jumper dresses and long boyfriend cardigans.  You can also use belts and long chunky necklaces to draw the eye up the body and stop you looking bottom heavy.

If you’re lucky enough to be  blessed with long legs you’ll have no problem, and can wear boots that come further up the thigh and pair with skinny jeans or short skirts.
