Snow Boots: Not just for shoveling snow
What a perfect day for an outfit with snow boots! It’s the first day that it really snowed here.
I bought my rubber toggle boots for shoveling snow. I chose a mid-height so that snow wouldn’t get inside my boots if the accumulation was high, as in recent years.
But the ones I found are so beautiful that I want to be able to wear them at other times as well. So here are some ways that you can wear them on weekends and around town.
A boyfriend cardigan + a matching shell+ destroyed skinny jeans. Add snow boots + a scarf.
- Any long top with skinnies go with snow boots. Warm and cozy pieces are best, and tall colorful socks or leg warmers showing above the boot is good. Tights are good if you’re wearing a skirt.
- Snow boots + skinny blue jeans + a long top. For snow boots with shearling or fur trim: combine three, four or all of these neutrals — black, tan, toffee, brown, gray. Outerwear possibilities: cream, gray, navy, brown. Add a casual bag in the same color or tone as the outerwear.
- A long shirt, plaid or not + skinnies + snow boots.
- A sweater tunic + skinnies + snow boots.
- Snow boots + leggings toned to the color of boot + a top + a blazer or topper.
- A chunky cardigan + jeggings + snow boots.
- A boyfriend cardigan + skinny corduroy pants. If tan snow boots, try a rust cardi and tan cords. If black boots, try black, gray or navy cords to keep the leg looking long.
- Snow boots + blue jeggings + a tunic.
- A sweater dress + tights + snow boots.
- A chunky sweater + a short skirt + snow boots.
- Snow boots + leggings + a gold lurex tunic. May add a plaid shawl or scarf, a big watch.
- You can even wear snow boots with a lace or chiffon skirt + a slouchy sweater. Here’s an example from Robert Redford’s Sundance catalog:
