Much like history, fashion often repeats itself. Take a look at the latest runway shows and you’ll see trends of decades past making triumphant returns to the catwalk. Lately, we’ve had our eyes on ankle combat boots, a shoe trend that brings back a level '90s grunge that fashion lovers from any decade can appreciate.
Whether you wore the trend the first time around or are just getting acquainted with it, a pair of combat boots will add an edge to any of your outfits this season—and for those who happen to live in more unpredictable weather, these will get you through the worst of days. Style them with your everyday pair of jeans and cool suede jacket for a casual night-out look, or wear a pair with a dark floral dress and a denim jacket to create the quintessential '90s ensemble.
