The Chicest Ways to Style the Boot Trend Every Fashion Person Loves

There are a variety of boot trends the fashion crowd continues to gravitate toward. And yes, that includes tried-and-true black booties. In addition, there’s another silhouette that basically every editor on our team loves and wears. I’m referring to lug-sole boots. This forward style that features a chunky design brings a cool and chic element to any fall outfit.
If you’re all about the lug-sole boot as well, you’re going to be interested in what’s coming your way. Below you’ll uncover exactly how to style lug-sole boots this year. You’ll notice everything from more casual outfits with the boots to dressier ensembles if that’s your thing.
Keep scrolling for more, along with shopping inspiration if you’re looking to add a new pair of boots or other fall staples to your offering.
This fall outfit formula is effortlessly chic with the longline coat with the sweater draped around the shoulders, turtleneck, straight-leg jeans, and those lug-sole boots.
A higher pair of lug-sole boots teamed with a pretty dress and oversize blazer is elegant and cool.
A shacket is a no-fail piece for fall, and so is a great pair of jeans and those trusty boots.
Love a good puffer jacket or vest? Consider teaming one with your favorite turtleneck, split-hem leggings, and boots.
Cargo pants are very right now and make any outfit (including this one with the chunky boots) feel all the more relevant.
