Tips and Tricks for Rocking Boots in SummerGo low. While knee-high (and even over-the-knee) styles were popular this past winter,Minnesota Twins Hats, higher boots are a bit too stuffy for spring and summer. Opt for ankle boots or mid-calf styles(like Picture 2,Cheap Monster Energy Hats, above) for a lighter look.Lighten up. If you still feel like boots look too “heavy” for summer, look for lighter-colored styles. In Picture 1,Houston Astros Hats, Andrea wears a caramel-colored boot. Grey, and even white (like Jessica Stroup’s, below), would also look great and would play up your brightly-colored summer wardrobe.

I wanted to prove that boots could work with two completely different styles. For Outfit #1, I went with a tougher look, inspired by a certain stylish starlet that “can’t be tamed”. For Outfit #2, I chose a sweet southern-inspired look. A western-style boot adds grit to a pretty floral dress. Boots can be worn in the summertime to add oomph to your already tough look,Wholesale Chras Bromn Hats, or toughen up a girly look; it’s your choice.
Experiment with styles. Many ankle and mid-calf boots have a western vibe. Even if you don’t normally look to Dolly Parton for fashion inspiration, a western boot can add something extra to your look. In Picture 3 above,louboutin boots, Elora’s western ankle booties lend edge to her seriously girly romper. You can also try western boots as an alternative to grunge-y Doc Marten’s with a floral mini dress.Get The Look
When summer comes around,Washington Nationals Hats, most girls put away their favorite pair of boots and start shopping for colorful gladiators and open-toed flats. This summer, however,Cheap Milwaukee Brewers Hats, is different: Boots aren’t going away. To switch things up a bit, bloggers, designers,Cheap New Era MLB Hats, and regular fashionistas are turning to boots worn with bare legs, a look that’s a little unexpected in the summer season.
