Stocking boots

Women's love for high boots is understandable. They emphasize the beauty and harmony of the legs, add to the image of elegance, femininity and sexuality, which captivates men. And the owner of fashionable shoes feels attractive and adored.

Treads - boots just above the knee, they have been in trend for several years. In the 2017 season, stylists advise to go further, or rather, higher, paying attention to models called stocking boots. In the early 2000s, they first gained popularity, and after so many years of oblivion, the trend is at its peak again.

The height of the stocking boots is usually up to the middle of the thigh.

The main feature of this shoe is stretch fabric. It fits tightly, however, allows you to move freely without feeling discomfort. Visually, the legs become slimmer and longer, and what girl does not dream of such a combination!

Initially, stocking boots were considered demi-season shoes. They not only added charm to their mistress, but also protected her in cool weather from rain and wind. However, winter and summer were added to the spring-autumn options.

Winter boots are insulated, they can be decorated with fur, pebbles, fringe. Summer boots are sewn from thin perforated leather, textiles, there are original lace patterns. Shoes with open toes and heels look very catchy, moreover, they are comfortable in summer heat. But make sure that the pedicure is at its best. Bright drawings on the nails will look spectacular.

This season, designers are not limited to classic options, expressive decor complements couturier models. Fringe, chains, rivets, locks, lace, embroidery, inserts of a different texture, leather embossing are decorated with fashionable boots.

Popular high models with lacing. Their plus is in efficiency and the ability to pull up boots to a comfortable width. Although often lacing is extremely decorative.

Famous designers in the 2017 season offer fashionable women pretty daring options. Bright and bold models with a shiny surface from the fashion house Dior. The assortment of juicy colors - blue, green, red. Heel attracts attention: rectangular and transparent. Such a hit is effective not only on the catwalks.

Patent leather boots are featured in the Balenciaga collection. In them you will attract attention at any party.

Flat suede models are available in the new Ralph Lauren collection. In suede elegant shoes warm, comfortable. The big advantage is that the usual casual wardrobe will go well with her.

Other well-known brands also presented their models: Marc Jacobs, Rick Owens and others.

What boots stockings are made of - let's talk about this. Of course, the most practical option is leather shoes. It is universal, able to withstand heavy rains during the off-season, frost and slush in the winter.

Stocking boots are sewn not from ordinary, but from soft stretch leather. She stretches perfectly and completely fits the leg. Embossed leather models, imitation under a snake or crocodile are also relevant.

Patent boots do not require much hassle either, but, unlike the “leather classics”, they are not designed for daily wear, this is an evening option. Moreover, varnish models should be exclusively on high heels. They will sit perfectly on slender legs. It is good to combine them with evening dresses, tight-fitting jeans. You will look stylish and sexy, and, believe me, will not go unnoticed.

Suede stocking boots look noble and elegant. Visually, they make the legs slimmer, so curvy fashionistas better to opt for them. But natural suede requires more care than skin care, so that shoes always look their best. And rains, dirt, puddles will not allow wearing boots as often as we would like.

Most manufacturers are dominated by practical tones. Boots of black, dark blue, brown, gray shades are perfectly combined with any colors of clothing. Fans of shocking will be offered unusual colors: white, pale pink, beige, red, cream, olive, burgundy, red.

Real fashionistas prefer the universal color not gray, but black. Any image becomes elegant, sophisticated and laid-back. Regardless of the material - leather, suede, velor, textiles - stocking boots will be appropriate at work and at celebrations.

A classic little black dress with matching gray accessories will perfectly match with them. Milk and white, beige dresses, blouses, cardigans will also be appropriate. Turquoise skirts and dresses will give the image and restraint, elegance, adding brightness to it.

In stilettos, the legs look amazing - beautiful and slender, so fashionistas prefer these models, however, you need to think about convenience and safety. Moreover, there are interesting alternative options.

For everyday wear, boots and a low steady heel or no heel at all are suitable. They are comfortable even in ice, which is important in winter. Look at models in black or brown non-shiny leather on a flat sole, they will elegantly look on your feet. Lovers of long walks and parties where they spend so much time on their feet should take a closer look at these models.

Wedge-heeled boots are also comfortable and look feminine. In addition, a high sole visually makes the figure more slender and tall. The same effect on stiletto heels.

When buying shoes, you need to pay attention to important things:

• Let's start with the material. If your boots are leather, make sure they do not fade. Look at your palms: there are no traces left.

• Tall suede boots should be of the same high quality, otherwise the stockings will crawl down. If the shoes are faux suede, they should be duplicated.

• Hard heels and socks will indicate the quality of shoes, making shoes comfortable to wear. Make sure that the heel is stable, does not “stagger”, otherwise the legs will quickly get tired.

• Creases should not be collected on the shafts, it is unacceptable if they move out. If the boots did not sit perfectly, try on others better.
• The zipper should be easily fastened. It is unacceptable if the upper edge will pull the lower leg. This is not only inconvenient, but also ugly: a nasty “roller” hangs over the boot.

Stocking boots are universal, however, there are exceptions. Girls with uneven legs are better off avoiding such shoes, as it will emphasize your little flaw. It is also not recommended to choose over-boots and stocking boots for chubby girls of small stature. They are better off looking below the knees.

However, full legs are not a sentence. The main thing is the growth (medium and high) and the “evenness” of the legs. By the way, curvy ladies are very fond of stocking boots, because the stretch takes the form of a leg, and there are no problems with zipper fastening.

Owners of a wide leg and full legs should heed the advice of stylists. Black and navy blue boots will visually lengthen legs. Elastic leather stocking boots have special elastic bands, and you should also pay attention to them. It is better to refuse bright decoration - chains, metal details, lacing, fringe and other jewelry: they will make the image heavier. Also discard patent leather boots.

If the girls are very thin, then boots to the middle of the lower leg are recommended, as they will visually add volume. You can buy shoes of medium height with lacing, it will "make heavier" and ideally "pull" the boots over the foot. Light shades, including white or light beige, are suitable for skinny ones. True, these shoes should be worn in sunny weather. White sophisticated boots in the midst of dirt and dirt on them will look ridiculous.

If you have medium and high growth, slender legs, then almost any model will suit you. However, avoid a large number of horizontal parts on the shaft, this will visually shorten the legs. To lengthen them, pick up tights of the same color as the stocking boots.

In high boots you can safely go to a party, to the cinema, to a meeting with friends, walks. But they are not recommended for a business image, official celebrations.

There are some nuances for the informal environment, the main thing here is not to overdo it. The stigma of vulgarity has been removed from high boots, and this line does not need to be crossed. Otherwise, your image will not attract general attention, but rather repel it.

Consequently, no deep neckline and cuts, it is not necessary to wear translucent and varnished things. Avoid a lot of jewelry, artsy accessories and fishnet tights.

And now about what can and should be worn with high boots. Skirts and dresses will reveal all the beauty of legs and boots. Ideally, if the hem is slightly lower or slightly higher (literally a couple of centimeters) of boots.

Wear a short a-line skirt to show off your slimness. Flared and fluffy skirts will suit young slim girls. Skirts and dresses with an asymmetrical hem will help to create a feminine, but at the same time flirty image.

If we talk about dresses, then all styles, colors and fabrics will do. You can experiment: flowing and knitted fabrics, silk and knitted, loose and fitted (not tight - it will look vulgar), plain and with a pattern.

With boots (high or medium length), shorts will be interesting. But no need to choose short models. Stocking boots are already a provocation, and with tight mini-shorts they will look vulgar.

Tight pants, leggings or jeans are suitable if the legs are in perfect shape and the shoes are correctly selected. Of course, you can wear short breeches or loose pants. But then all the beauty of the boots will be hidden. If you decide to combine stockings and breeches (in fairness, we note that not all stylists recommend riding breeches with stocking boots), then trousers should be tucked in, and boots should not be too high.

High-fitting shoes will look great with oversized things, that is, loose fit. Elongated sweaters, as well as tunics from light or dense fabric, are suitable. The image can be supplemented with a scarf or belt.

From outerwear, not too thick jackets, fur coats, coats or raincoats will work well. The latter can be with shortened sleeves, but long gloves. Classical models with an asymmetrical hem are appropriate.

In stockings, boots warm and comfortable, high tops protect from wind and rain. With a coat of classic models, caps of different styles are suitable.

In gray boots you always look stern and attractive at the same time. The skirt is slightly above the edge of the shaft with a straight or asymmetrical hem, a white loose pullover, a beige coat and a handbag a tone lighter. The result was an image in the style of smart sexy.

What a daily life without jeans! With tight pants, black boots will look good, the image will complement the shirt, blouse, jacket. A classic gray coat will add elegance.

Black and white classic! The image is interesting, vibrant and fashionable. With long boots, a sweater or tunic with short sleeves complete with a turtleneck or blouse.

A white tunic just above the miniskirt in combination with a black short cloak will create the image of a fashionable city woman.

A modest white dress with black boots will make the image sophisticated and sexy.

Lovers of shorts can combine them with classic black blouses and turtlenecks. Wear a cardigan, elongated jacket or light coat from above.

Shiny boots are best reserved for going out with evening dresses. A lush hem just below the edge of the boots will give an image of mystery. People around you will not only appreciate the beauty of your legs, but they will also be intrigued: where do the boots end?

For an evening out, a fitted dress from pleated fabric with an asymmetrical hem is also suitable.

And, of course, a small black dress is always appropriate, which makes any look sophisticated.
