Trending: Over The Knee Boots

Now that the new season is in full swing, it's time to have some fun with fashion. And one of the edgiest new styles in footwear right now is the over-the-knee boot. This is a trend we just can't get away from for winter 2010. They could possibly be the season's must-have item. But when new styles like this pop up, it can give us girls some stress when it comes to figuring out exactly how to wear them. Here is a 'how to' guide on how to wear these boots.

Jennifer Lopez in over-the-knee boots

(Jennifer Lopez rocks one of the best over-the-knee boot looks with these sexy thigh high suede boots. The high heel goes great with her short black dress. J Lo adds a pop of contrast to the monochromatic look with a cool fringed brown leather bag.)


(One of the easiest ways to wear over-the-knee boots are to pair them with skinny jeans or leggings like Kim Kardashian does here. The goal is to have a long, sleek line between the boots and leggings or skinny jeans.)


(Unless you want to conjure up visions of Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman," keep cleavage/skin to a minimum when you wear over-the-knee boots. Lady Gaga is an exception!)

Katerina Graham in over-the-knee boots.

(A flash of skin works great with the over-the-knee boots, giving it a sophisticated, but still edgy look. But again, keep the skin to a minimum!)

 Ciara in over-the-knee boots.

(Sure, over-the-knee boots go with lots of looks. But pairing girly ruffles with thigh-high leather boots is just a bit too much. Stick with straight, simple shifts for dresses or sleek skinny jean/leggings looks for the best way to wear over-the-knee boots.)

Katie Price in over-the-knee boots.

(Stretch tall boots can sometimes squeeze you in all the wrong places and give you sausage legs. So unless you have great legs, like Katie Price does here, skip the stretch over-the-knee boots.)

Now--go get your self a pair of over-the-knee boots.
They're a must-have!

Love always,

Ash
