Knee Deep

Last winter, I blogged about how slouch boots were a big fashion trend. During the fall, I wrote about cowboy boots. The hot boots to wear for the winter of 2010 are the over-the-knee boots. You might remember me mentioning these stylish shoes a few times in previous blog posts. This trend has been spotted everywhere, so I thought it was time for me to blog about it as well. Take a look at some of the sexy over-the knee boots I found online.

When it starts to warm up for spring, you can wear a pair of over-the-knee boots with some ripped skinny jeans tucked in, a tunic top, and a military jacket. For now, you can wear the same look but with bleached skinny jeans and a bomber jacket instead. Another cute winter look to try out is wearing your over-the-knee boots with a sweater dress and a pair of thick tights. For a regular day at school, you can pair your over-the-knee boots with a velvet top, a tiered skirt, an eternity scarf, hoop earrings, and some black leggings. For a sexy look to wear out on a date, pair these boots with a one-shoulder dress, some chandelier earrings, and a cocktail ring. For hitting up the clubs, wear these boots with a cold shoulder top, a faux denim mini skirt, hoop earrings, and a newsboy hat. If you have any suggestions on how to wear over-the-knee boots, let me know.

Don't Sweat It

While spring may not be too far away from now, winter is still very much in session. It's February and is still pretty cold outside in NY. I still need to bundle up when I go out to school or work. It's sometimes even necessary to dress warm when you're going to stay indoors as well. However, there's no reason you can't look cute and stay warm at the same time. Wearing a sweater dress is the perfect way to achieve this. Sweater dresses are great for the winter and happen be a big trend right now that has been spotted on various celebrities. They basically look like regular sweater tops, only longer (the actual length varies depending on the dress). These dresses are definitely a nice warmer alternative to the shirt dresses that I wrote about in the fall and they carry a more feminine feel to them. If you're interested, take a look at the sweater dresses I found online below.

To get a vintage vibe, wear a sweater dress with a cloche hat, a pair of lace tights, a bib necklace, a faux pearl bracelet, and some ballet flats. For the office, wear one of the turtleneck or cowl neck sweater dresses with a blazer and a pair of pumps. For the spring or summer pair a short sleeved or sleeveless sweater dress with some gladiator sandals, bangles, a floppy hat, and a flower ring. For a date or for hitting up clubs, wear a cold shoulder sweater dress with metallic leggings and a pair of over the knee boots. For a preppy school girl look, wear your sweater dress with a pair of plaid over the knee socks or argyle tights, some mary janes and a bow headband. For a cute winter look, pair a long sleeved sweater dress with some slouch boots and thick tights. If you have any more suggestions on how to wear a sweater dress, let me know.
