How to wear your sock boots in a LOT of styles
If you already have your boots on hand, let’s see what clothes you can combine them with. Always remember to choose the one that best suits your style and is comfortable for you. By this, we mean that if the stiletto heel is not your thing, go for a square heel, or if the patterns inhibit you a lot, solid colors will always be your allies. Now yes, let’s start!
Sock boots with skirts
Nothing more feminine than a skirt with a pair of boots. Combine your sock boots with skirts of different lengths and textures. Use smooth and short skirts such as those made of imitation leather to give prominence to your patterned boots, whether flowery, animal print, or geometric; they will give you a unique style.
If showing your skin isn’t so much your thing, opt for midi-length or ankle-length skirts, the good thing about these boots is that they stick to your legs and don’t stick out anywhere. In this case, it is easier to find patterned skirts and combine them with boots in neutral tones such as nude, white, or military green.
We are not going to leave out the famous tube skirt; it that with these boots they look great, they produce a tight effect throughout your lower part which is why we recommend adding volume on top with a ruffled blouse or a coat with shoulder pads.
I skinny pants
Although the reign of skinny pants may be coming to an end, they are back to stay and by combining them with trendy clothes we will make them never go out of style. To complete the look with these pants we recommend that they be in black or worn grey, if you wear sock boots in the same color you will make your legs have an “infinite” effect, that is, you will not know where the boot begins or ends pants and vice versa. Ideally, the boots should be pointed, in this way, your figure will look much more stylized.
Boyfriend pants
As its name says, if you haven’t gotten these pants yet, you can be inspired by the ones your boyfriend is wearing. The beauty of boyfriend pants is that they are loose; you can find them in different shades of jeans and with tears. As we have already said, the effect achieved by sock boots is to adjust the calf, this produces the perfect balance so that your feet look smaller compared to the rest of your figure. For an even more chic effect, let your boots take center stage by rolling up the bottom of your jean.
Tailor suit
If you don’t have a suit in your closet by now, it’s time to get one. The idea is to find the perfect set between pants and a blazer, in this way, you can use it both together and separately. Now, for our combination with the famous sock boots, we will try to use the complete set. If you dare more, you can wear a red suit and some animal print boots, the perfect combination. If you are more discreet, a gray suit goes great with black boots and a bag in the same shade.
Pant court
The pant court or cropped pants are those whose length is above the ankles. The most normal thing is to find them with a wide finish, that is, flared. This feature will make your sock boots look great since you will be balancing a wider part with a shoe that fits your legs, both complement their lengths so it is as if they were born for each other.
Prince of Wales and red boots
The Prince of Wales print, more commonly known as the checkered print, is perfect since it has reached half the world’s closets to stay. You can incorporate it into pants, blazers, coats, skirts, and even shirts. One of the combinations that will undoubtedly make people talk is a gray Prince of Wales print with red sock boots that will bring your whole outfit to life. You will be wearing two trends that get along perfectly.
Palazzo Jumpsuit
If for some reason you must dress in something more elegant than normal, the Palazzo jumpsuit is undoubtedly one of your best options. Finish your look with a belt that accentuates your waist even more and matching sock boots. For this occasion we recommend you wear square heels, in this way, you will give the heights a rest and you will feel more comfortable if it is an event that will last all night.

Little black dress

Take advantage of showing your legs a little more and combine this garment with sock boots, between the cut that these products on your calf and the length of the dress, you will look great. The only tip you need to keep in mind is that only if the boots are black can you wear tights in the same color, otherwise it is better to avoid them.
