There are many different combinations of styles when it comes to pairing boots with a dress. With so many choices, it can sometimes be difficult to find the right combination of boots and dresses. However, this choice shouldn't be difficult if you follow a few simple guidelines. Whether wearing short or tall boots, the combinations to choose from are numerous. You can mix and match while keeping the guide in mind.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Choosing a Style for a Specific Occasion
Step 1. Match the boots to the dress style
Match the style of the boots to the style of the dress you are wearing. For example, a thick pair of motorcycle boots won't go well with a light, fluttering dress, but rather a leather dress. Also, brown ankle boots won't look great with a leather dress, but go well with a light, fluttering dress.
Step 2. Wear boots that are quite formal or casual according to the theme of the event
In addition to customizing the boots with the dress, choose boots that match the occasion. A pair of slim thigh-high boots (thigh-high boots) would look great with a black dress, but would be inappropriate for a fairly casual event. Instead, choose thick ankle boots for casual events.
- Make a black dress look more casual and eccentric by pairing it with chunky leather boots.
- Wear high-heeled boots with the same black dress for a more stylish look.
Step 3. Decide if you want to wear tights or leave your feet bare
Wearing tights or not really depends on the weather. It's better to wear tights or leggings with boots if the weather is cold, especially if the dress is short. For warm weather and casual events, opt for a barefoot look.
- For cold weather, wear tight wool pants with high leather riding boots.
- Choose a pair of flat ankle boots with denim shorts for warm weather.
Step 4. Leave a few inches of space between the boots and the dress
There are exceptions, but usually you should leave at least a few inches of exposed foot between the boots and the hem of the dress. Leaving your legs open a few inches will usually look prettier. Even if you're wearing a long dress, wear boots that expose some of the leg.
Method 2 of 3: Wearing Short Boots with Dresses
Step 1. Pair slouch boots with a dress that fits well
Corrugated boots are ankle boots that appear loose around the ankle. Pairing ruffled boots with a short, fitted dress is a great way to make your look look casual. It's also a great way to make your legs appear slimmer.

Step 2. Make your look more eccentric with a fluttering dress
This look is an exception to the “fit boots with a dress” guide. Wearing ankle boots with a fluttering dress is a great way to add contrast and a bit of eccentricity to the look. However, wearing bots for motorized is an option that is too extreme.
Step 3. Wear open-toe boots with a frock dress
This frock-style dress was popular in the 1950s and is usually loose, except at the waist. Pair midi dresses with a pair of open-toed boots. Choose ankle-high open-toed boots. Open bots are a great option for adding a touch of modern style to a retro look.

Method 3 of 3: Pairing High Boots with Dresses
Step 1. Choose a short dress with over-the-knee boots
Short dresses with above-the-knee boots are a very cute and common choice. You can wear a tight-fitting dress or a loose-fitting short dress. Suede (soft leather) boots go well with a casual dress. Genuine leather boots (leather) and imitation (pleather) are more suitable with dresses that are worn for evening slang events.

Step 2. Pair the knee-high dress with riding boots
Choose a knee-length dress with a pair of tall riding boots. A beige dress with light brown riding boots would be a pretty choice for this look. This combination is casual, but elegant and can be worn any time of the year.
Step 3. Do not expose the skin between the dress and boots
This is an exception to the “expose feet between boots and dress” guidelines. Choose any type of thigh-high boots. Suede, velvet, and leather are some of the options. Make sure the boots wrap around your feet snugly. For a more casual boot, wear a loose floral dress. Wear a tight dress with high heels for an evening look.
Tips
- Wear bright colored or patterned tights for a casual or carefree look.
- There are also patterned boots. Choose patterned boots to add a festive feel to a simple outfit. For example, wear floral boots with a simple black dress.
