After a Break From Knee-High Boots, I'm Buying These to Make Up for Lost Time

by Aralyn Beaumont

I didn't quite think I'd welcome knee-high boots back into my life with open arms, but then again, I didn't quite think I'd wear as much bright color in my entire life as I have in this year alone. Sometimes the fashion winds blow in a trend we never quite knew we needed at just the right time. After the year and a half we've had, I'm not surprised we're all eager to dress our loudest. Stiletto-heeled knee-high boots are the answer to our quarantine woes—I'm sure of it. From tall cowboy styles to sleek mock-croc pairs, I've shopped the best knee-high boots so you don't have to.
