Whether you live in skinny jeans on the reg or just pull them out here and there on the weekends, chances are you have a few standby pieces you wear with them. When it comes to your go-to shoe pairings, there is also a strong chance you opt for ankle boots on the reg. Hey, it makes sense given that booties work flawlessly with skinnies—especially cropped styles to really showcase the silhouette.
While there’s nothing wrong with your classic black boots, spring is all about starting fresh. So we thought you might be interested in stepping out of your comfort zone a bit by testing out a new shoe style with skinny jeans.

Add a cool edge to your vibe with lace-up ankle boots that have that combat-esque feel.
White booties add an instant level of sophistication to any ensemble and actually pop quite nicely with lighter-wash skinny jeans.
If you are going for black boots, go for a stiletto pair (which feel a bit lighter for the season) with a cropped pair of skinny jeans.
