Fashions keep changing and we feel it is hard to keep up with the trends, but one thing is for sure; no wardrobe is complete without having at least one pair of leather boots. Preferably in timeless, classic colors such as black and brown, boots can be paired up with almost anything during the chilly seasons keeping you warm and chic at the same time. But no longer are boots confined to winters only, you can find a range of airy summer boots to stay safe! Read on for some help on how to choose the perfect pair of leather boots for work according to your body type and climate.
Petite:
No need to feel unconfident due to your height because there are some looks that you can carry off well that tall girls cannot. Such as ankle boots with high heels and pointed toes. Stylists suggest that for this body type, a stiletto heel would look best, as it will make your legs look longer.
Shorter boots look better because burying your legs in high boots will only make them look shorter. To add to the lengthening effect, pair up the boots with tights or pants of the same color. Avoid details on your boots such as buckles, shoelaces, etc; these will make you look smaller.
Stout:
Girls with this body type have a straight, sturdy physique and usually end up looking like square blocks with boots, but that is not necessarily the case when the right pair of boots is chosen. The recommended style would be leather boots with stiletto heels. The idea is to add a more feminine touch, hence the pointed heel. To give your overall look an even more girly and fabulous touch, try going for boots with embellishments such as fur, zippers, or shoelaces.
Hourglass:
The figure that was very much coveted in the ’50s deserves a boot that will accentuate the curves and yet balance them out. Choose boots that have a thick base to keep you well-grounded. These include blocks heels and wedges.
Cone-shaped heels with a platform front will work equally well while giving you the taller height we all love. Leather boots with a perfectly round toe, work well with curves and give a more refined, polished, and balanced look on the whole. If you are tall and want a slimmer and sleek look, then you can opt for flat, knee-high boots to stay comfortable. A pair of brown leather boots in this style would be a good option.
Plus-Sized:
It seems as if being a plus-sized woman limits your options, but in reality, that is really not the case. Your target here would be to look slimmer, so go for full-length boots because any shorter than that would make your legs look heavier.
Knee-high boots will give your legs a shapelier appearance especially if they are clinched at the ankles and widen at the calves. As for the heel, the same advice applies to this body type as for the hourglass figure; a thicker heel will not only make you look as if it is going to snap under your weight but will also keep you more comfortable.
Round:
For around body, the idea would be to wear something chunky on your feet to balance out your broad shoulders. Black leather wedge boots will look perfect and you can opt for a platform wedge to look taller. Steer clear of slim boots such as those with pencil heels; they will only make you look disproportionate, making your torso appear heavy and your legs too slim by minimizing them.
Slim:
A slim body type is probably the most versatile as far as boots are concerned. If you are tall, you should definitely opt for high, flat boots, since you do not really need heels (unless of course, you want to look taller). A plus point is that you can even carry off above-the-knee boots for some added spunk.
Motorcycle boots are also an edgy and flattering option for thin legs because they cut you across the calves and, make them look wider and rounder. If you have small feet, you can easily pull off cute kitten heels as well.
Summer or Winters:
Summer and winter boots obviously vary greatly in style and cut. For winters, you have a larger variety since the aim is to keep your legs and feet warm. Black and brown leather boots are very versatile and work well with the darker colors used in winter clothing giving you a more glamorous look overall.
For summers, you would want something more light and airy like a motorcycle or ankle boots. You can opt for lighter colors such as light grey or brown. Leather boots with cutout patterns not only look funky but also keep your feet ventilated.
Do not be afraid to experiment, but make sure the boots you are wearing a suit you well and make you mobile at the workplace for better productivity.
