Now that winter is officially here; the weather report for Ithaca at 9am today was 14 degrees, feels like 4; I can no longer wear my minnetonkas everywhere. Enter the over the knee boot. Once relegated to strippers (Pretty Woman), and dominatrixes (what's the plural for that?; dominatrices?), over the knee boots are the new style of this winter. Seen way back when on Serena in Gossip Girl, now the trend suddenly seems more relevant. Not only is this style of boot a little saucy, they are actually very practical; you could trudge through some pretty deep snow in these puppies. Perfect for Ithaca!
Anyway, over knee boots look equally great with jeans, leggings or tights and a skirt, and can go for day to night; talk about multi-tasking. And for those of you who think your too short for them- well I'm not the one to ask, because I have a pair and I don't care if I'm too short because I love them anyway.
While I am partial to the Chinese Laundry Top Boot (what I have), you can also get Serena's pair; The Turbo, also Chinese Laundry. Steve Madden has a bunch of both high heel and flat over the knee boots as well. This is the perfect style to stay warm, and remain fashionable; so many dreams come true in Ithaca.
