The Elegant Fall Boot Trend Everyone Is About to Wear With Miniskirts Has Arrived
It’s only early August, but a new uniform for fall has just dropped. If you recall, fashion people in NYC have been pairing miniskirts with chunky, black, leather knee-high boots for summer, which is an uncommon choice for warm weather. And now, cool girls in L.A. are wearing a fall boot trend similar to the NYC fashion crowd, miniskirts paired with brown suede knee-high boots.
The transitional time between summer and fall is almost here, so Paris Jackson just tested out an early fall outfit trend while attending Cara Delevingne’s birthday party. She opted for a white button-down shirt to pair with her tan miniskirt and accessorized with a paisley-print tie. She stuck to neutral tones by adding a pair of espresso brown knee-high boots and a small suede clutch to match. This look is both appropriate for the transitional weather and a variety of occasions, but especially a night out. The boots dress the skirt up while the shirt dresses it down, so it’s pretty much the perfect outfit combination.
If you’re into this easy summer-to-fall uniform, keep scrolling to shop pieces similar to Jackson’s look (including some of the best brown suede knee boots on the internet).
