Over The Knee Boots: Trendy or Tarty?

Over the knee boots are a tough item to style. I can’t ever quite shake the ‘Pretty Woman’ vibe but they also look so damn stylish on other people, I love the trend and it doesn’t look like it’s going away any time soon. Today I decided to style them in possibly the hardest way – with a fur coat:

A fur coat and over the knee boots was always going to be a risky combo. I tried to keep the style retro with an A-line skirt in a fun 60s style print. I picked up this skirt in my local Tesco, which was a total bargain. It’s such a flattering cut as it’s not too short and gives the illusion of a smaller waist. I adore the geometic pattern and the colours match with so much of my wardrobe, meaning it has quickly become a favourite in my wardrobe.

Today I paired it with a sparkly metallic turtleneck from Primark. Turtlenecks are one of my favourite winter staples and this metallic version adds a bit of interest – even though it’s not Christmas anymore, I still love adding a bit of sparkle! Another one of my Primark favourites is of course this stunning fur coat. I always get compliments whenever I wear it and it’s just so cosy! 

Finally, I have to talk about these over the knee boots. I haven’t quite managed to pull off the heeled long boot trend so I was so happy to discover this flat pair. However, I do wish they were a little longer to completely cover my knees – and I only have short legs! They feel casual and comfortable to wear but I must admit that over the knee boots are a trend which you need to be confident to pull off. Working on my confidence is a constant process for me, so wearing an outfit like this may seem like a small thing but for me, this outfit is a great way to express myself, feel more confident and go about my day feeling fabulous!

What do you think of my outfit? How do you style over the knee boots?
