If there's a trend that's going to be worn before everyone else gets on it, you can guarantee it's the likes of Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, et al., who will be doing it first. Right now, it's the turn of the winter boot. Whether it's in black, patent, deep blue, suede or velvet, the heavy shoe has been spotted on many of our favourite fashion It girls of the moment.
But as with everything, it's all about how you wear it. Currently, there seem to be no hard-and-fast rules. Gigi has worn her velvet ankle boots with a white slip dress—at least a nod to the fact that we're in warmer climes right now—whereas her sister Bella Hadid is opting for a jeans-and–black jacket combo, which has a truly autumnal vibe.
Jenner, ever the lover of a pair of cut-offs, has worn a pair of denim shorts with her blue suede shoes, and pal Hailey Baldwin has gone for an oversize white shirt to pair with her calf-length boots. As we said, there are no real rules here other than start stomping around in your winter boots stat. Either wear with a flowing maxi dress to give your outfit an edge, or with your favourite pair of jeans. Well, there's always the chance of rain in the UK, so we reckon you'll easily find an excuse to wear them.
