Whitney Though they may look like the ideal shoe to wear in wintertime, lace-up boots are actually quite versatile, and perfect for many occasions. You can wear them with a dress or a pair of jeans, or breezy knitwear in the summertime. Here are six great reasons to try lace-ups next time you want to get dressed up:
1) Great for the office
Loose fitting, low-cut boots are perfect for the office. They add interest to a plain dress, but work well even with a suit. Of course if you work in an environment where heels are required this will not be a good option. A pair of black leather lace-up boots is still essential though as they can be worn with everything from jeans and jeans skirts to dresses, trousers and trousers suits.
2) Good for any season
Lace up boots that come up to the knee or above make great spring/summer shoes when paired with short skirts or shorts for informal cocktail parties or outdoor events. They can be worn with warm, woollen tights in the winter months.
3) For the holidays
A pair of lace-up boots is especially good for traveling on planes where you may have to wear shoes that are easy to slip on and off several times during your journey. A pair of lace-up ankle boots is particularly practical when traveling by train or bus, or for a long day at work.
4) Good for outdoor wear
Lace up boots are ideal for outdoor events like markets and fairs where you need to walk a lot over uneven ground. They are also great for walking the dogs and wearing them with your favourite weatherproof jacket.
5) Good for dress-up
Lace-up boots are the perfect alternative to high heel boots on a night out. They look great with jeans or trousers in the evening and can be worn with a jacket or a shirt when it gets cold in winter. They are also good for dressing up your casual wardrobe – they look especially good with suits, jumpers and shirts as well as casual outfits – dresses, skirts, pants etc.
Lace up boots are the perfect shoe for many occasions. Their versatility means you can wear them with an evening dress, a suit or a pair of jeans. They are great for travel and practical for outdoor events. When it comes to fashion nothing is better than a good pair of lace up boots.
