Trends: Over-the-Knee Boots

Hi All!


One of my top three fashion bibles; Vogue, states that one of Autumn/Winter 2009 fashion trends are over-the knee boots. Vogue HQ suggest that legs get the VIP treatment with dramatice over-the-top proportions.


So what do you all think when you look at the following photos....

I can tell you what i think:

Hooker heels ♥ Chanel ♥ Sexy

And the below is fashion icon, Kate Moss....

Those of you who are British must have noticed that she is rarely photographed without wearing her over-the-knee boots in autumn/winter.

Be they flats or heels.

I love that she wears them so casually and gets away with it!

I am personally a big fan of over-the-knee boots, I actually own two pairs, but having said this have only worn them three times since owning both pairs. Which will have been since 2005/6? This is purely because I havent a clue what to wear with them most of the time. I really worry that the look im going for maybe perceived by others and thought of just as the first photo of Julia Roberts in 'Pretty Woman'. Usually I dont care what others think, but I daren't walk down a street at night on my way to a club and be mistaken for something i'm not :o)

All in all though I have to say that I have taken these boots out of their boxes, which are unhappily collecting dust on top of my wardrobe, on a number of occasions over the past few winters with the intent to wear them on a night out. However this year I am determined to actually leave the house with them on!! The key to pulling off this trend is to accessorise correctly and not over do it!!

What I find funny is that I think I may just purchase a pair in brown or tan!! I am loving the folllowing boots....

And then something like these for everyday wear.....

All in all I do believe Vogue have stated a clear fact that over-the-knee boots will be seen around more this year then any other since the 80's! If leggings can make such a huge impact, regardless in some cases of camel toe and cellulite, then why cant over-the-knee boots?!
