Cowboy Boots

Whether you’re a fan of the ’90s trends that have made a comeback, from baggy jeans to baby tees, or prefer more contemporary styles like cropped pants and dresses, cowboy boots are one early aughts staple that has significantly improved. Traditionally worn by men who spent their days riding horses, these rugged work boots have evolved into fashionable footwear that can be paired with any outfit in your closet.

Pair a leather jacket with your cowboy boots for a polished look that can take you from the office to brunch with the girls. For a sleeker look, pair them with a neutral color dress and choose a pair of jeans that fit nicely over the boot shaft, such as bootcut jeans or skinny jeans. You’ll also want to wear tall, chunky boot socks so your leg doesn’t rub against the boot. Look for a pair with a Cuban heel to give your legs an extra height boost.

Silver Shoes

Silver shoes are a stylish addition to winter shoe trends 2023-2024. Fanciful flats in metallic shades are perfect under cotton dresses or with dark denim trousers. And, of course, the beloved ballet flat maintains its position as one of the season’s trendiest styles.

Shiny heels add a glamorous touch to evening looks, especially when paired with other metallic colors or cool neutrals like grey, icy blue, and very soft pink. They also look chic peeking out of cropped fringe denim or a girly sundress or accenting a monochrome trouser-and-nice-top combo. Keep accessories minimum, as these attention-grabbing shoes provide plenty of drama.

Rain Boots

Although rain boots aren’t the most fashionable shoes to wear in everyday life, they can be chic if styled correctly. 

Tall socks are also crucial to creating a cozy and chic outfit with rain boots. If you’re going for a more formal dress-and-rain-boots look, wear them with an oversized sweater or dressy coat over the top. You can even wear them with a fitted dress, as long as the hem isn’t too short to expose your legs to the rain. Just remember to add a hat and gloves for your cold-weather essentials.

Ankle Boots

If you’re looking for a shoe style that will go with most outfits in your closet, look no further than ankle boots. They go well with skirts and denim, even for dressier events. You can even opt for socks or tights in a matching color, which is excellent if you want to elongate your leg line.

This season’s lug-soled ankle boots are the perfect example of how fashion meets function. The tomboy toughness of these boots is complemented by the chunky soles that make walking in snow easier.

Skinny jeans are the easiest to tuck into ankle boots, but wide-leg or straight-leg jeans can also be worn with them as long as they don’t have too much of a gap between the hem and the bottom of the boot shaft. If you want a more modern look, pair your ankle boots with a silk slip skirt.
