Lace-Up Ankle Boots

Ankle Boots are a must-have for Fall and I must say I’m quite impressed with the latest arrivals of lace-up  ankle boots. While some styles are focused on the latest trends (such as open-toes, studs, and clog-style adaptations), others are quite classic and can easily be worn for years to come.

Whether you choose a smooth or suede leather upper, a bold color or a neutral tone, an open-toe version or a clog-bottom style, I’m sure that you’ll find one or two styles of lace-up ankle boots that you love. They are a perfect transition shoe for Summer to Fall and are extremely versatile and fun to wear. Wear them with long leggings, skinny jeans, or an above the knee dress or skirt.

Here are our top picks for lace up  ankle boots…


These gorgeous KORS Michael Kors Angie Lace Up Ankle Boots (below) in distressed taupe leather feature a peep toe with classic lines.  The approximately 4-inch heel is offset by the 3/4-inch platform.    There is also a nice tan suede version of this boot, but I love the distressed leather.


The Marquee Lace Up Ankle Boots (shown below) are a fashion forward design by Velvet Angels that features a lovely blue suede upper, wrapped suede heel, and a hidden 1-inch platform.


These Marc by Marc Jacobs Lace Up Ankle Boots (below) feature an on-trend clog bottom with studs and a synthetic wood toned heel and platform outsole.


The Apepazza Strasburgo (below) is a military-inspired  ankle boot with a short lace-up panel, two buckled straps at the top and rear zipper entry.   Folded leather cuffs over the front of the ankle provide the finishing touches on this casual yet stylish ankle boot.


These Donald J Pliner Hoa Ankle Boots (shown below) feature an antique metallic leather upper with elastic panel for a stylish and comfortable fit.    Like all DJP footwear, these boots are leather lined and crafted of superior quality.


The Jeffrey Campbell ‘Loggins’ Oxford (below) is a vintage inspired lace up ankle boot with fold over collar & comfortable mid heel.


Chic rocker style best describes these Chloe Black Leather Ankle Boots (shown below).  These sexy boots feature lace up detail on the front and zippers on both sides of the boots!


The Trouve ‘Jenna’ Bootie (below) features zipper teeth detailing on the trim of the cuff and vintage-inspired lace-up styling with a flirty peep toe. The stacked heel and platform provide a considerable lift, while the side zip closure ensures easy on and off.


These Giuseppe Zanotti Ankle Boots (below) are absolutely gorgeous!  The suede upper has smooth leather trim and lace up detail the front with brass loops.

There are many ways to wear ankle boots. The most popular is with skinny leggings or jeans.  Longer styles of jeans and leggings look better in my opinion, though I have seen a few people pulling off cropped versions with ankle boots.

Only skinny pants should be tucked inside ankle boots. Pants with wider legs will balloon out to much when tucked inside ankle boots. Instead, wear your wide-legged pants over your ankle boots. I find that ankle boots actually make for a comfortable and less bulky fit (than tall boots) when worn under wide-legged pants.

Skirts and dresses also look great with ankle boots.  Go for lengths that are at least a few inches above the knee (or shorter). Avoid wearing ankle boots with mid-length skirts and bare legs.  For a classic combination, you could also pair ankle boots with a long skirt.

Look great showing some leg with your ankle boots, especially while the weather is warm! As the weather gets cooler, you can wear them with tights or leggings for a polished and put-together look for Fall.

With all of the sky high heels and platforms, they are also a comfortable alternative to looking chic during Fall and Winter. Riding boots typically have a 1 inch or less heel, making them super comfy, yet stylish at the same time.

Here are some of the latest riding boot styles by Frye…

Established in 1863, the Frye Company is the oldest shoe company in America. This long history has given them a reputation for making finely crafted, fashionable boots using the finest leathers and quality hardware.

Frye Riding Boots range from $300 – $500, but they are a worthy investment because they will last for years, looking better as the leather ages. You’ll want to care properly for your investment by using saddle soap are a good leather conditioner. This will ensure that your riding boots look great for many years.

Riding boots are meant to be sleek and form fitting, so make sure that your riding boots fit snuggly against your leg. If you find your leather riding boots to fit a bit too snuggly around your leg, try taking them to a cobbler to have the leather stretched.

If you only have one pair of riding boots among your boot collection, black or brown boots will have the most versatility among your Fall and Winter wardrobe pieces. You can wear your riding boots with leggings or with pants tucked inside. They can also be worn with dresses or skirts. Be sure that the hem line is above the top of the boot and, for a polished look, wear tights in the same color as your boots to keep the lines of your outfit.
