EmRata Wore the Shoe Style Everyone Will Wear With Dresses This Autumn

If you follow Emily Ratajkowski, you know she's the queen of wearing dresses with trendy shoes, which is what she did yesterday in New York City. While the dress-and-shoe combination she wore isn't really groundbreaking, it is a strong indicator of what's to come this autumn.
Celebrities and influencers have taken to wearing knee boots this summer, as Ratajkowksi displayed, pairing black-heeled ones with a ruffled Reformation dress. The airy dress made the boots look far more summer-friendly, and as we'll soon be transitioning to fall, it's the perfect way to make your summer dresses more autumn-friendly.
Knee boots have been the go-to style for the past couple of seasons, trumping over-the-knee and even ankle boots. Given that people have even been wearing the style in the summer, you can put money on the fact that they'll be the go-to shoe style to wear with dresses this autumn.
