Ladies, let’s talk about the magic of Ponte pants.

Thanks to their double-knit construction, Ponte pants strike the perfect balance—they’re more structured than leggings but sleeker than traditional trousers. That means comfort and polish, all in one.

Today’s styles go way beyond the basics.

From classic slim cuts to wide-leg silhouettes and legging-inspired fits, there’s a Ponte pant for every mood and moment.

And when it comes to pairing them with ankle boots? The possibilities are endless.

With so many colors, cuts, and textures to choose from, you can mix and match your way to effortless style.

✨ So yea, here are 5 chic tips for rocking Ponte pants with ankle boots.

Let’s dive in and make sure you read through so you can get all these styling hacks! <3

1. Show your ankle x tapered pants

When it comes to Ponte pants, always choose cropped pants.

This is really important as most of the time, we tend to buy pants that land on the ankle area.

However, if you want to style it with ankle boots, this length can be really embarrassing. It’s not long enough to tuck it inside the boots but it’s not short enough to show the ankle out.

Turns out, that pants can make us look shorter and clumsier visually.

So ladies, always buy the cropped Ponte pants that are above the ankle length to make sure you can look polished and sharp in them!

Showing a bit of skin is always going to elongate your legs and make you look taller and thinner!

Don’t miss this chance.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #1:

Use nail polish clear coat on fraying thread ends to stop further unraveling until you can properly repair the item!

2. Opt for flared Ponte pants to look taller

Besides the common skinny tight Ponte pants, let’s not forget flared pants can look really flattering with ankle boots!

This tip is actually from my friend Josie.

As a girl with crankles, she doesn’t love to show any skin in the ankle area.

She avoids wearing skinny pants, as this will accentuate the crankle’s part.

Instead, she wears long flared pants and covers this with ankle boots.

All I can say is this combination makes her instantly look 5 inches taller visually and not to mention, her legs look slimmer.

Some readers emailed me which one is more flattering: Flared pants or wide-leg pants?

For me, I will always choose flared pants. As a petite girl, wide-leg pants always drag me down and I just don’t think how this can contour the shape of my leg.

However, for the flared pants, there’s a slim cut for the thigh area and a bell shape cut for the calf area (see the red arrows above).

This design can definitely contour my legs. With a pair of ankle boots underneath, this is my “looking put together” look!

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

3. When in doubt, go monochrome

If you want to look even taller with your Ponte pants and boots, the easiest way is to go monochrome, like the common black x black combination.

With the same color, your ankle boots won’t divide your legs into two areas and that helps you to elongate your legs even further.

However, some ladies may think this is too boring to match black on black.

Let’s not forget you can always play with different prints and fabrics of Ponte pants.

For me, I think that is absolutely gorgeous to style a pair of simple faux leather Ponte pants with pair of matte ankle boots.

Even with the same tone, the contrast of the fabric can highlight your outfit.

Added to this, you can always pick printed Ponte pants like checked or animal prints.

But always avoid the loud big prints as this will make your leg look a bit thicker to some extent!

Rub clear deodorant on the inside hem of pants/skirts to prevent thigh chafing. ❤️

4. Wear stir-up Ponte leggings to look polished

While I usually show my ankle with the skinny Ponte pants, sometimes I just want to feel comfortable and tuck my Ponte legging inside the ankle boots.

So here’s my question: Have you ever wondered why some ladies always tuck their pants so nicely that it won’t create any bulk with the boots?

The secret is most of them wearing the stir-up Ponte legging! (Is that just me but this product is definitely new to me…)

5. Roll up your Ponte jeans for a casual look

While cuffing a pant seems simple, but actually, there are many ways to do it.

For me, my favorite way to cuff is the Pinroll and simple roll!

PRO TIP:

Don’t cuff too wide (known as iron worker cuff) if you are a petite girl, always cuff the Ponte pants according to your height is make sure it looks good on the leg proportion.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #5:

Stretch tight shoes by wearing them with thick socks and blowing them with a hairdryer!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So ladies, here are the 5 tips on how to wear Ponte pants with ankle boots!

Let’s have a quick checklist first.

  • Show ankle when you are wearing tight Ponte pants
  • Opt for flared Ponte pants to look taller
  • Go monochrome with faux leather/ printed Ponte pants to spice things up
  • Wear stir-up Ponte leggings to look polished
  • Roll up your Ponte jeans for a casual look

I really hate when people say Ponte jeans are another pair of black tight jeans – They are just different!

I adore Ponte pants so much as they can always hug my curves perfectly in a comfy way!

With some styling tips and tricks, we can definitely look refined and comfy at the same time!

Enjoy ladies!

1. WEAR PINK SNEAKERS IN A CASUAL WAY

Despite the bright pink tones, pink sneakers almost go well with all kinds of casual wear.

Whether you pair these cuties with leggings or distressed jeans, it just adds a pop of fun to your look without going overboard.

2. EMBRACE A SPORTY LOOK IN PINK SNEAKERS

Heading to the gym but want to stay stylish?

Wear your pink sneakers with a monotone tank top and sheer leggings that just brighten up ordinary gym wear instantly.

Together with a baseball cap and sunglasses, this is how you stay chic to even the simplest look.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #2:

3. PAIR PINK SNEAKERS WITH BLAZER

If you are wondering how to dress down your blazer, wearing it with sneakers is a foolproof way to go.

Source: 1,2

For a refreshing style, pair a white blazer with light denim skinny jeans and nude pink sneakers just look dreamy with the right amount of chicness.

If you want to get experimental with the hues, go for the dark pink blazer set for a modern street look.

As a reminder, it can look slightly top-heavy if you pair the set with light pink sneakers.

That said, you can easily balance it out with a pair of white ankle socks.

Finish off the look with the in-style chain bag, this getup is just wholly on-trend.


❤️Girl’s fashion hack #3:

Rub clear deodorant on the inside hem of pants/skirts to prevent thigh chafing. ❤️

4. LOOK CLASSY IN LIGHT PINK SNEAKERS

While some think looking classy means looking boring, I tend to differ.

If you want to spice up an elegant chiffon blouse and pencil skirt set, throw yourself a pair of light pink sneakers just to look distinctively refreshing.

But of course, if you are wearing the big chunky sneakers, that can look a bit contrasting.

From my experience, pink espadrilles sneakers look best with elegant styles.

For a leg-flattering effect, I will also reach for pointy-toe sneakers instead of the round-toe.

Not only does it look sleek in pointy shoes, but the V shape also helps to elongate the legs visually and make you appear to be taller.

To complete to look with perfect finishing, let’s not forget to carry a structured shoulder bag or a lovely embellished clutch purse.


❤️Girl’s fashion hack #4:

Use rolled-up magazine pages to maintain boot shape when storing – truly work wonders imo lol

5. GET CREATIVE WITH SOCKS PAIRINGS

With the right picks, your pink sneakers can look ultra fancy to be worn out with socks.

If you just get your feet wet in the sock pairing, go easy with a pair of white ankle socks for a girl-next-door look.

In Asian countries like Japan and Korea, I must say this style is just wholly on-trend.

But if you want to level up your pairing game, perhaps it’s time to get experimental with mesh socks or vintage lace socks to unlock more outfit combos.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #5:

Stretch tight shoes by wearing them with thick socks and blowing them with a hairdryer!

6. SOFTEN YOUR LOOK WITH PINK SNEAKERS

When it comes to the symbolism of the color, pink stands for feminine, sweetness, and romance.

That said, we can always soften our look with pink sneakers.

Feeling too mature in your wild leopard print top?

No worries as your pink sneakers are always here to add a dash of youthfulness to freshen up the look.

Vice versa, if wearing a pink floral dress and sneakers looks way too girly, throw on a faux leather biker jacket for a creative crossover.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #6:

Quick fix – Brighten yellowed white clothing by soaking in a solution of lemon juice and hot water!

7. WEAR PINK SNEAKERS IN A FLATTERING WAY

On my pink sneaker days, I will always throw myself a pink scarf or a pink top as well.

Source: 1,2

Not only does it look more Matchy-Matchy, but that will also help elongate the figure visually from head to toe.

After all, pink is a light color.

If you carry all dark hues for your tops and bottoms with your pink shoes, end up looking top-heavy.

So next time, if you want to wear all-black, just throw yourself a dusty pink beanie or neck scarf and you will feel so much better.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #7:

Whenever I feel bloated, I’ll always use a rubber band to loop through a button hole and around the button for a temporary fix to pants that are too tight!

8. ADD A POP OF FUN WITH HOT PINK SNEAKERS

While nude pink sneakers can ease your outfit easily, bright pink sneakers can be hard to handle.

Unlike tip 7 (above tip), you can actually wear hot pink sneakers with contrasting hues like dark hues without looking top-heavy as the shoes themselves are eye-catching enough.

So if you wondering what to style with cool black jogger sets, hot pink sneakers are a better choice than nude pink for a fun, dynamic sporty look.


❤️ Girl’s fashion hack#8: Keep Jewelry Organized While Traveling hack

Thread necklaces through drinking straws to prevent tangling – simply clasp the necklace and thread the chain through a straw.

9. WEAR PINK SNEAKERS IN A MONOCHROME STYLE

Feeling extra bold today? Let’s challenge ourselves with a pink monochrome look.

I know how intimidating it sounds, but with the right pick of hues, it can look surprisingly sleek and refreshing.

Instead of choosing bright tones like neon pink or hot pink, I will always go for nude pink as it’s certainly more versatile to mix and match.

While a knit tracksuit set can look laid-back, a monochrome style can dress up your look instantly even with a dash of high fashion.

To add some varieties, get your black sunglasses or white socks to add some color here or there.


❤️Girl’s Beauty hack #9:

Go for the budget-friendly retinol body cream for a mild but still noticable skin tightening effect!

  • Wear pink sneakers in a casual way

These days, espadrilles have evolved into a wide range of shoes, including flats, mules, slip-on, and sling-backs.

The reason being is people always secretly love espadrilles but thought it’s tricky to style.

Well, think again.

So ladies, below are the 7 ideas when you wonder what to wear with espadrilles.

Enjoy and pin some of these looks my loves!

1. PINK X PINK ESPADRILLES

Echoing your espadrilles with another pink item always makes your outfit look more thoughtful and put together.

What to wear with espadrilles
Source: 1,2

Whether it’s rosy pink or dusty pink, this styling is suitable for all shades of pink.

To fully utilize this tip, always dress simply with neutral colors for the top and bottom. Only with the simple Canvas, your pink espadrilles can pop up the color easily.

If you want to highlight the pink more, feel free to pair it with a pink little pink so they echo with each other!

But of course, it doesn’t necessarily need to be the bag. For example, you can wear a pale pink tank top with a pair of skinny jeans and pink espadrilles.

That way, your top, and the shoes can complement each other well also!

2. GO  MONOCHROME FOR A DREAMY LOOK

Of course, let’s not forget one of the hottest trends these days – monochrome wearing!

What to wear with espadrilles summer
Source: 1,2

As a petite and also pear-shaped girl, I just adore the tone on tone as it visually makes me look taller and slimmer.

Styling with a similar shade of pink, it just makes my body figure appear to be one long rectangle instead of two squares with different colors.

To add some layer to the outfit, avoid pairing the same tint of color all the time as it can look boring.

For example, if you are wearing a pale pink dress, you can pick a darker shade of pink (i.e. Dusty pink) for the espadrilles.

Another way is to get creative with the fabrics.

If you are wearing cotton for the top, you can choose other fabrics like suede or tweed for the dress to enrich the look!

If you are the type of girl who is always indecisive about which clothes to pick, try monochrome and you will be surprised how much time you’ve saved!

Random Sis’s Talk 💅

First thing first, for the ones who are on a budget, scroll past this pink box please. 💗

For the rest of you who are staying, have you girls tried out the Clé de Peau concealer?! ✨

Not gonna lie, this is quite pricey but lemme tell you, it’s worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY. 💸

It’s definitely moisturizing enough for me as a dry skin girlie and my skin now has been appearing FLAWLESS thanks to this concealer. 👑

I also love the fact that they’re quite inclusive in terms of skin tone! 💕

So for the girlies who are interested in pampering yourselves, check this out on Amazon and save it as a gift list for later this year! 🛍️ Your future self will thank you!

3. DRESS OFF- SHOULDER WITH PINK ESPADRILLES

Does anyone agree that off-shoulder and pink espadrilles just look so darling together?

Off-shoulder dress is a classic summer look and it is just always in style.

Showing the neckline not only can add a touch of soft femininity, it makes our face appear to be smaller.

But as a reminder, for the board shoulder girls, wearing off-shoulder may further accentuate your shoulder area.

Instead, wearing V stylish V-neck top will be a great alternative!

As for the ladies who want to look more sophisticated, you can try the boatneck dress. With the elegant neckline design, it just instantly elevates your look!

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

4. PINK ESPADRILLES X SILK SCARF

If you wonder can you look classy with the espadrilles? Well, absolutely!

As the saying goes, “Less is more”.

With just a T-shirt and jeans, you can bring out elegance and grace if you pay attention to the details.

For the shirt, you can choose the V-neck instead of the round neck to look more on-point and sleek.

Is that just me but I just feel like my face looks chubbier when I was wearing a round neck? V-neck just gives a sleek and neck-elongating effect that I need.

As for the jeans, I prefer white jeans more than blue jeans here as they just naturally look more polished.

5.  BOHO STYLE X THE DUSTY PINK SLING-BACKS

To all my dear boho girls out there, don’t worry, I won’t miss you out!

Actually, with the right colors and designs, espadrilles complement really well with the boho dress.

For this look, instead of choosing solids, espadrilles with dusty pink patterns can echo the embroidered tank dress really well.

To complete the look, feel free to add a classic Panama hat and the dangle feather earrings!

So ladies, if you get bored with wearing gladiator sandals, espadrilles are a refreshing choice!

6. SMOCK DRESS X LACE-UP ESPADRILLES

For a summer carefree look, let’s not forget about the over-the-knee smock dress.

With the billowy silhouette and wide hem of the dress, the legs will just look slimmer comparatively.

That way, even if you are wearing the lace-up espadrille wedge, your body figure won’t feel too overwhelming!

Also, as smock dresses are simple and neat in design, they won’t compete for attention with the espadrilles.

I know some ladies always worry the smock dress will make them look pregnant.

While I understand where is that coming from, I just don’t think this is the case.

If you wonder how to wear a smock dress in a less bulky way, read these 7 tips!

7. CASUAL STYLE X ESPADRILLE SNEAKERS

If you want a casual look on Lazy Sunday, consider espadrille sneakers!

It’s comfy but looks more refreshing than regular sneakers.

My favorite look is paired with a cropped pullover hoodie with pale pink joggers. With a similar shade of pink for the joggers and sneakers, it just slightly elongates my leg more.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So ladies, here are the 7 ideas when you wonder how to wear espadrilles! Let’s have a recap first.

  • Echo your pink espadrilles by adding another pink item
  • Embrace monochrome for a dreamy look
  • Pair off the shoulder with pink espadrilles
  • Match the pink espadrilles with a silk scarf for a classy look
  • Embrace the boho style with the dusty pink sling-backs
  • Wear the smock dress with lace-up espadrilles
  • Go for a casual style with espadrille sneakers

I hope now I’ve convinced you pink espadrilles are actually way more versatile than you think. I remembered earlier this month a reader emailed me “I am 40, am I too old for pink espadrilles?”.

Of course not!

Ladies, our age doesn’t define us at all.

If you want to wear something, no one can disapprove of that.

Plus, by pairing it with different outfits, we can for sure look sophisticated with pink espadrilles!

As the saying goes “Fashion is like eating, you shouldn’t stick to the same menu.”

It’s time to get creative with our pink espadrille now!

From a formal meeting look to an off-duty casual ensemble, ballet flats have always been a perfect choice.

So ladies, here are the 8 fresh inspirations if you wonder what to wear with ballet flats in a flattering way!

Enjoy my girls and feel free to pin some of these looks <3!

1. PULL OFF BALLET FLATS IN A CLASSY STYLE

For a classy semi-formal office style, ballet flats are one of the must-have staples for all of us.

While the pointy stiletto heels are such a confidence booster, sometimes they can look too aggressive.

For an approachable look, ballet flats are a handy choice that goes well with everything.

Whether you team it with a one-piece knee-length blouse shirt dress or a smart blazer set, ballet flats never fail to add a dash of softness and elegance to the look.

As a petite girl, it takes me some time to embrace flats as ballet flats as the round toe is not the most leg-flattering design.

That said, these days I figured we can always utilize the unity of our outfit colors!

If you aren’t a fan of monochrome styling, you can try to pair the bottom and the shoe with the same hue so it will help elongate your legs slightly more!

After all, ballet flats are too darling to give up, aren’t they?

2. GET A CASUAL LOOK WITH BALLET FLATS

To dress down your ballet flats during the weekend, pair them with an off-shoulder top and skinny jeans will never go wrong.

But if you want to give the casual look a lovely twist, reach for the doll-like smock dress and a straw hat.

Despite the classic vegan leather ballet flats, these days they certainly come back with some casual fabric like denim and linen. (Don’t doubt, I even saw the straw ballet flats! )

These cuties certainly elevate the look and give a sense of outdoorsy flare.

And if you want to add a dash of vintage vibes, it looks equally flattering when you pair the silver ballet flats with polka dots one-piece dress.

Finish off the look with a pair of retro round sunglass, this is how you bring out the old-day charm.

3. OPT FOR BALLET FLATS WITH STYLISH POINTY & SQUARE TOE DESIGN

When it comes to flats, the shoe design truly matters.

Without the extra few inches from the heels, I always opt for the pointy V-toe ballet flats instead of the round-toe ones.

The V line certainly elongates my leg visually and makes me look more put together in formal wear.

With this sleek V shape design, just add a sense of sophistication and make it perfect for the workplace.

If you want to level up the game, try out the square ballet flats. They are all the rage these days and I can see why.

They are sort of edgy yet still retain their elegance.

If you want to add a contemporary spin to the most classic shoes, this is the one you looking for!

4. WEAR BALLET FLATS WITH SOCKS FOR A REFRESHING LOOK

If you’ve never thought of wearing ballet flats with socks, maybe now it’s time to get your feet wet in this trend!

Ballet flats + socks = is that cute combo you wish you try earlier.

Nail the combo, and you’ve got an effortlessly fresh look.

  • Go Artsy: Elevate your flats with mesh socks! Stripes, polka dots, or glitter add an instant pop and create a truly unique statement.
  • Go Preppy: Embrace the trend! Cozy wool-knit socks with ballet flats are a total win. (Thanks, Miu Miu! We see you, and we’re copying it.)

My go-to? 

Keep it chic and subtle. I match my socks to my dress for a clean, harmonious vibe.

A low bun, a cream knit dress, and this perfect pairing—that’s your ultimate fall uniform.

5. SLAY THE EDGY LOOK IN BALLET FLATS

Can you look rebellious in the most elegant ballet flats? Absolutely!

With different variations, your ballet flats can be full of character. Instead of wearing neutral hues like black and beige, animal prints are a nice choice if you want to add a sense of coolness to the look.

With a pair of snake print pointy flats, you just look effortlessly chic even in the simplest outfit.

These days, I must say I’m obsessed with ballet flats with ribbon belts and stud embellishments.

This is such a perfect blend between classic and rebelliousness.

You can easily pull off an androgynous look even in ballet flats!

6. OPT FOR THE CLASSIC ANKLE CROSS STRAP BALLET FLATS

Girls, here’s the thing, you don’t need to be a ballerina to wear the lace-up ballet flats.

If the ordinary ballet flats can’t satisfy you anymore, guess what, go for the classic ankle cross strap ballet for an extra dose of grace – they are just perfect for a tasteful look.

To showcase the flats, pair them with a simple dusty pink tiered midi skirt that are simple enough to draw people’s attention.

But of course, it looks darling if you want to team it up with jeans or pants for a high-contrast look.

I mean, you just can’t look any feminine with these lovely flats!

7. DRESS UP YOUR LOOK WITH STATEMENT BALLET FLATS

To look fancy in ballet flats, look for the special fabrics and embellishments that can truly help.

Jimmy Choo: Crystal-embellished velvet heels (Left), Manolo Blahnik satin flats (Right)

Among all the fabrics, velvet has always been my favorite. With its shininess, it can instantly glam up the look.

Plus, they are just ultra-festive. For a Christmas party, you can wear these pink velvet flats in sheer black tight for a sweet look.

For a killer look, get yourself a pair of crystal-embellished ballet flats to spoil yourself!

Some ladies wear this as one of their wedding shoes when their feet are in pain – just a smart idea!

8. AVOID PAIRING BALLET FLATS WITH WIDE LEG LONG PANTS

Last note, when it comes to wearing ballet flats in a flattering way, I will always avoid pairing the ballet flats with wide-leg long pants.

Of course, if you are the tall girl, just skip this point but for most of us, pulling off a slouchy silhouette for the bottom may not be the best idea.

In fact, it’s fine to wear long wide pants but at least you have to give a peek at the ankle area.

That way, you will look so much better in your body proportion.

Also, to avoid looking top-heavy, I will always wear figure-skimming tops with wide pants instead of going all baggy with the outfits.

These are all minimal tips but trust me, they truly make a big difference when you look in the mirror!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So ladies, here are the 8 foolproof inspirations if you wonder what to wear with ballet flats!

Let’s have a quick recap first.

  • Pull off ballet flats in classy style
  • Get a casual look with ballet flats
  • Opt for ballet flats with stylish pointy & square toe design
  • Wear ballet flats with socks for a refreshing look
  • Slay the edgy look in ballet flats
  • Opt for the classic ankle cross strap ballet flats
  • Dress up your look with statement ballet flats
  • Avoid pairing ballet flats with wide-leg long pants

I hope these tips inspire you to try out more creative pairings with ballet flats, they are way more versatile than you thought actually!

That said, ahead are the 18 combos if you wonder how to wear rhinestone boots on all occasions.

Enjoy!

1. WEAR RHINESTONE BOOTS IN A CASUAL ENSEMBLE

While all the girls think they can’t handle the rhinestone boots, my advice is just to treat them as ordinary boots.

Just embrace the bright shades and pair them with your usual ensemble and you’ll be just fine.

If you just get your feet wet in the glitter boots department, ankle boots are always a good place to start.

As rhinestone boots are already the statement piece of your ensemble, you want to keep the rest of your outfit plain and neat to avoid looking tacky.

For a sleek high-street style, pair a vegan leather biker jacket with slouchy mom jeans that is just full of attitude.

Or else, throw on an oversized retro graphic sweater or a classy wool-blend top that is equally flattering.

These boots are true to size. If you want to look stunning without sacrificing your comfort, chunky heels are always the best pick!

2. STAY FEMININE WITH GLITTER BOOTS

If you think you can’t look soft and feminine in glitter boots, well, think again.

While we always link rhinestone shoes to the cool girls’ look, perhaps it’s time for us to discover more styles.

For a boss lady look, pair a long dusty pink blazer on top of a cami black dress with metallic boots is just as sexy as you look stylish. Or else, pair the boots with a mini pleated dress for a touch of schoolgirl fashion.

In all seriousness, what I’m trying to say here is, you don’t have to pair the boots with black faux leather leggings all the time!

Try styling them with dresses and you will realize your outfit aesthetic will increase tenfolds.

3. ADD THE RHINESTONE BOOTS AS A POP OF COLOUR

Want to look one-of-a-kind without trying too hard?

Try wearing the rhinestone boots as a pop of color – Trust me, this method just works great for everyone.

If you are wearing all black today, pick the silver glitter boots for a color-contrasting effect.

With only two color tones on your body, not only it makes you look sleek with a dash of high fashion flare, but that just helps put your boots into the spotlight.

4. PULL OFF A HIGH-FASHION LOOK WITH A BLAZER

As the saying goes “When in doubt, throw yourself a blazer”.

This motto is legit.

If you want to level up your rhinestone boots, team it with a blazer or a long coat just works wonders.

The formalness of the blazer just balances out the boldness of the rhinestone boots and adds a dash of classiness to the ensemble.

And if you want to take this killer look to another level, don’t forget to drape your blazer over your shoulders and wear an envelope clutch instead.

5. GO FOR SEQUIN COWBOY BOOTS FOR A TASTEFUL LOOK

For the boho girls out there, if you think rhinestone boots aren’t artsy enough, I’m sure the sequin cowboy boots will satisfy you.

Looking for some cute thigh high boots this winter?! I got you fashion babes.

As a 5.2 ft girl, I never thought knee-high boots can look flattering on me.

Well, clearly I was wrong.

After owning the flat over-the-knee boots these years, I realize I can still look put together in them.

They are comfy, chic, and perfect for daily wear! This does take me some time to figure out how to look tall and chic with the flat boots but it’s all worth it!

So ladies, here are the 7 tips if you wonder what to wear with flat over-the-knee boots!

I hope you can get some inspiration, enjoy!

1. Opt for a fitted cut for the flat knee-high boots

When it comes to flat knee-high boots, I always go for the fitted cutting rather than the loose one.

Source: Asos & SilkFred

It’s true that some tall girls can easily pull off the loose flat thigh-high boots, but I am pretty sure that doesn’t work for me.

The bagginess of the heels will visually shorten my legs and make my calves appear to be thicker.

For me, the fitted stretchy design always looks the best.

Showing the curves of the legs just makes my legs look thinner in black boots even without the high heels.

2. Opt for a pointed toe instead of the round toe

Another little reminder is always to opt for the pointed flat thigh-high boots rather than the round toe if you want to look taller.

Everyone has different styles.

If you want to look cute and add a sense of softness to your look, round-toe boots will work great for you.

However, if you want to look chic and taller, a pointed-toe boot is a no-fail option!

With the pointed toe, the V lining will visually elongate your leg a little bit and make you look taller.

Plus, when it comes to versatility, pointed toe is more of a common design these days and you can pair it with basically all types of clothes.

I don’t know about you but whenever I wear pointed-toe heels, I just feel more put together! (Anyone can relate?)

3. Style with a belted sweater dress to look put together

When I wear the high heel boots, I never wear my sweater dress with my belt on.

However, with the flat thigh-high boots, the belted sweater dress is such a perfect piece to style with!

First, belted dress help defines my waist and create high-waisted silhouettes.

So even when I am wearing flat heels, I won’t feel insecure about my figure at all.

Second, as both baggy sweater dresses and flat over-the-knee boots look slightly casual, a belt is useful here to make me look a bit more dressed up!

If you are reading this blog post till now, there’s one thing for sure…

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

4. Wear the dress with an asymmetric hem to create a thinner legs illusion

I hope that’s a new tip for you as I’ve just discovered these days! I just can’t wait to share with you girls!

Believe it or not, tops or dresses with asymmetric hems will make your legs look slimmer in flat thigh-high boots.

The reason being is when people look at the asymmetric lining, they will subconsciously focus on the angles instead of the curves.

I know it sounds weird but you can test it out yourself!

Plus, while asymmetric tops are getting more popular these days, it is still not that common.

So if you want to look more stylish and one of a kind with the causal flat thigh-high boots here’s the chance!

5. Wear shorts for a comfy chic look

I always thought people only wear over-the-knee boots during winter until I saw some girls wear T-shirts and shorts with boots and look absolutely stylish in a comfy way!

Have you ever experienced an awkward situation where you wear a pair of high heel boots but still don’t look tall in the photo?

One of the reasons can be you are wearing heels with a long dress and you aren’t showing any skin on your leg.

At the end of the day, looking tall is also about visual body proportion.

You can always look taller when wearing shorts as you can show more skin of the thigh area and visually contour your leg ratio.

I hope that gives you some incentive to wear flat thigh-high boots during summer! It’s a nice try, isn’t it?

6. Monochrome is a no-brainer to look high fashion

If you want to look high fashion on a budget, it’s time for you to embrace the monochrome trend!

With similar shades, it just makes you look more dressed up and polished.

My favorite look is wearing an off-shoulder charcoal grey sweater dress with my black flat over-the-knee boots – simple yet stylish!

If you are worried tone-on-tone style will look boring, do not worry as you can always get creative with the fabrics!

If you are already wearing shiny faux leather boots, you can wear something matte-like velvet for your dress!

7. Wear the same color tone for the lower body for a united look

If you aren’t ready for the monochrome wearing, you can try wearing the same color tone for the lower part to make your outfit look more united!

It doesn’t necessarily have the be the same color tone but you can always find complementary colors instead.

For example, it’s hard to pair olive green thigh-high boots with dark green jeans but you can pair them with grey jeans instead.

Grey and olive green won’t create big color contrast and thus they just look harmonious together.

With a similar color shade, your body won’t be divided by different colors and thus look taller and slimmer!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So girls, here are the 7 tips when you wonder what to wear with flat over-the-knee boots! Here’s the quick checklist.

  • Opt for fitted cut for the flat knee-high boots
  • Opt for pointed toe instead of the round toe
  • Style with a belted sweater dress to look put together
  • Wear the dress with an asymmetric hem to create a thinner legs illusion
  • Wear shorts for a comfy chic look
  • Monochrome is a no-brainer to look high fashion
  • Wear the same color tone for lower body for a united look

So basically, flat thigh-high boots are truly comfy, versatile, and wearable! The outfit pairing options can be endless!

After all, looking stylish is definitely more than wearing high heels all day long isn’t it?

In short, you can wear chunky sneakers with literally everything from casual jeans and activewear to cute dresses and skirts for a modern contrast.

Over the years, the platform sneakers have been redesigned with all leg-flattering fits and hues, and today, they are one of the iconic IT girls’ shoes.

Whether you are petite or not, I’m sure these pairs will work wonders for you with their incredible versatility.

That said, ahead are the 8 outfit combos if you wonder what to wear with chunky platform sneakers.

Enjoy and pin some of these looks for later <3!

1. WEAR CHUNKY PLATFORM SNEAKERS IN A CASUAL ENSEMBLE

If you just get started with the platform sneaker trend, dress simple can never go wrong.

With the chunky sole, pairing the sneakers with complex prints and bold colors can easily look like you are trying too hard.

Instead, dress neat and simple and wisely showcase your high platform shoes as a statement piece that just alludes to a sense of effortlessness to your ensemble.

Pair your rainbow platform Converse with a faux leather tunic dress, this outfit is sure to turn heads.

2. PAIR PLATFORM SNEAKERS WITH BAGGY OUTFITS

A belted slouchy blazer dress with a pair of sand tone Air Max? It just looks so. damn. chic.

For a casual weekend ensemble, an oversized hoodie dress and chunky dad shoes are the impeccable matches of all time.

As platform shoes are bulky in nature, they can visually drag you down and make you look stubby.

If you pair them with a long pleated dress, the result can be downright brutal. As a petite girl, my most worn way is to throw on an oversized top as a dress.

That way, my figure can be elongated visually and create a long-leg illusion.

Complete the look with a pair of chunky platform shoes, it just balances out the figure and avoids looking top-heavy at the same time.

If you are reading this blog post till now, there’s one thing for sure…

You have good taste! <3 If you approve of some of these looks, please kindly pin or share some of these outfits so many tasteful fashion babes can come across this outfit inspo, thanks pretty! ❤️

share women fashion content

And…it would truly mean the world to me if you stay until the very end. ❤️

3. STAY FEMININE WITH PLATFORM SNEAKERS WITH DRESSES

Some girls may wonder how to wear chunky sneakers with dresses and I totally get that.

Sometimes it just doesn’t feel right to style them together.

For a failproof look, color plays a major role here.

If you are wearing a brown dress, pair your platform sneakers with similar hues just to make you look instantly more united as a whole.

But can you look feminine in platform sneakers without wearing dresses? That’s a BIG YES.

For an elegant look, throw a Chanel-style tweed jacket over a ribbon dress shirt with stark white platform shoes; it just looks so high fashion, even to the simplest look.

4. WEAR PLATFORM SNEAKERS WITH SOCKS

Worried your high-platform trainers aren’t eye-catching enough?

No worries as you can always add a pair of knee-high striped socks for a bolder statement.

For the girls who are feeling extra experimental, feel free to get bold with contrasting colors for a funky look.

But for me, I will get my feet wet in monochrome pairing first.

For a sporty schoolgirl look, throw on a cropped hoodie on top of a slouchy dress shirt and a tennis pleated skirt.

Add a dash of style with Nike platform sneakers, this look is a 10/10.

5. STAY EDGY WITH CHUNKY PLATFORM TRAINERS

As one of the hottest trends this season, pulling off chunky platform sneakers in high street style is a no-brainer.

Want to cozy up with the laid-back ensemble today? Throw yourself a baseball cap and windbreaker co-ord set and you can be good to go!

Don’t doubt, with a pair of iconic platform sneakers, you just look chic 24/7 with minimal effort.

6. EMBRACE THE BADDIE GIRL STYLE

As a perfect blend of high street fashion and sporty looks, a pair of chunky white sneakers is a must-have in baddie girl style.

To pull off an “I’ve got style and I know it” look, front knot your loose-cut tee and wear the high waist biker shorts to feature your curves.

And for the girls who wanna add some retro flares to the look, a graphic tee and flared pants just bring you back to the good old 80s.

7. GO MONOCHROME IN PLATFORM SNEAKERS

If you want to look put together but have no time to mix and match, monochrome pairing is your lifesaver.

Source: 1,2,3

Some ladies may think it’s impossible to look classy and high fashion with high-platform sneakers, but actually, you CAN!

Again, color matters. Instead of picking the right hues, go for neutral yet in-style colors like white and beige to bring out elegance.

For a white monochrome look, pair a flocked white dress with monochrome chunky trainers just to make you look united in figure and maximize the leg-flattering effect.

Stay faithful to a boss lady look, and don’t forget to sparkle your look with a pair of gold-tone sunglasses.

8. PICK YOUR STYLE

Do platform sneakers necessarily have to be chunky? Not necessarily. It’s really down to the shoe design you prefer.

Source: 1,2

As a petite girl, I prefer the pointy toe instead of the round toe as the V line can always elongate our legs visually with a dash of urban sophistication.

Pair the pointy black sneakers with a sleeveless blazer dress, you have no problem looking sleek with platform shoes.

Christmas is coming (in 2 months)!! and in case you want to spoil yourself…

Pretties, may I present you the two bags that you will never regret buying AND won’t break your bank so you won’t feel guilty afterwards …

The oh-so-classics – COACH Tabby 19 Quilted Leather Shoulder Bag on Nordstorm<3! (The reason I pick Nordstorm is because it seems slightly cheaper than other sites)

And I totally understand – Fashion comes and goes but this bag is here to stay for real…

Another one – YSL shoulder bag that looks effortlessly chic with a budget friendly pricing <3 I bought one last winter and now I am thinking should I buy another one <3

From my backend data, almost every 3 days someone from my email list will buy these two bags lol (Different sizes – some prefer mini some prefer the normal).

9. WHEN IN DOUBT, GO FOR PLAIN PLATFORM SNEAKERS

If I can only invest in one pair of platform sneakers, I will always go for the plain one.

Even though you can easily dress up and down with these pairs, they are just less risky to go tacky.

Vice versa, if you want to add a dash of whimsy to your look, go for the futuristic platform sneakers with all kinds of color patches.

Just one reminder, the color contrasting hues can exaggerate your feet visually so you better keep your outfit simple to balance things out.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

So ladies, here are the 9 outfit combos if you wonder what to wear with chunky platform sneakers.

Let’s have a quick recap first.

  • Wear chunky platform sneakers in a casual ensemble
  • Pair platform sneakers with baggy outfits
  • Stay feminine with platform sneakers with dresses
  • Wear platform sneakers with socks
  • Stay edgy with chunky platform trainers
  • Embrace the baddie girl style
  • Go monochrome in platform sneakers
  • Pick your style
  • When in doubt, go for plain platform sneakers

As a self-proclaimed vintage fashion girl since 15 years old, I’ve been trying out all kinds of vintage shoes for over a decade now, and here’s my conclusion:

Some of the cutest vintage heels can also be the most uncomfortable shoes ever.

The struggle is real 🥹

If you are reading this post, you are in luck as I’ve gathered 8 types and 21 pairs in a total of retro shoe heels that are actually comfortable.

Enjoy!

1. Ribbon & bow retro shoe heels

Guess what, bows are for grown-ups too.

When it comes to vintage looks, a glamorous pair of bow pumps boosts the aesthetic of the looks tenfold.

For an ultra-feminine style, delicate floral white lace tights and shimmery statement bow heels are here to make sure all eyes are on you.

(Homepage has sold out)

For me, I usually avoid the super retro-looking shoes as they can be hard to mix and match in daily life.

My recent favorite brand is Jeffrey Campbell, I think their design is somewhere in between so I can max out the times I wear the shoes.

Another big plus is they are very comfortable given this price range!

Black sheer tights and little bow pointy heels kinda night.

How romantic.

Trust me, there’s definitely NOT ENOUGH content for vintage fashion these days

If you are the retro girlies, there’s one thing for sure – you have impeccable taste.

If you find this recommendation useful – please kindly share and pin some of the shoes so more vintage girls like you can enjoy the info!

2. Retro & comfy: Mary Jane

Mary Janes is the never-ending appeal, there’s something whimsical about it.

For a classic combo, get dressed up in a preppy schoolgirl in solid white tights and red Mary Janes.

Whether you match it with a pleated skirt or an LBD, the possibilities are literally endless.


Need I say more? This pair will work wonders with a nice tea dress.

These classy pairs of Nordstrom are really comfy.

Disclaimer: I don’t have wide feet so I can’t say for all.


I love everything from this look from the retro eye makeup to green and blue stripe socks to the sassy pointy shoes.

Obsessed.

3. Floral & print vintage shoes

Of course, floral prints are always one of the most used elements when it comes to vintage heels.

And we are talking about all kinds of styles.

These groovy pairs of meaty floral high platforms just scream full attitude.

These heels are 100% perfect for a nostalgic disco party – bold, fun, and whimsical.

This floral pattern just can’t be any more retro.

It’s giving cottagecore and I bet it will look amazing with a baby blue gingham dress.

4. Metallic vintage heels

Let’s be real, it’s hard to deny the appeal of metallic heels – they just naturally add an extra pop of fun to the dress-up.

Again, I am picking shoes that can look retro when you pair the right dress but are modern enough to wear with normal outfits.


Thin straps just somehow look so sassy and feminine.

High platforms with four metallic color blocks = ultimate mood booster.

I can tell it will look perfect with a cute top and boot-cut jeans.

A white tee and jeans look too casual, throw these tasteful pairs on and people will instantly feel like you’ve given serious thought to your look.

You’re welcome sis.

5. When in doubt, Polka dot

Anna Kendrick said, “You can’t have a bad day in polka dots.”

and I agree with my whole heart.

Polka dots are just deliciously fun to wear!

If an all-over polka-dot dress looks too overwhelming for you, well, I’d say taste the water with polka-dot heels.

To make a statement, go matchy matchy in a cute pouch and heels!

Seriously, regardless of the seasons, polka dots literally can be spotted everywhere.

Or else, style your regular heels with polka-dot socks to freshen things up!

6. Preppy retro loafer heels

Fashion comes and goes but preppy fashion is here to stay.

Especially these days, the old money /quiet luxury style is taking a MAJOR moment.

A wild floral pants and loafer heels anyone?

Let’s be real, we are all scared to wear thigh-high socks even though we are always tempted to try. 

As a curvy girl myself, wearing thigh-high socks is a real battle for me.

Most of the time, my socks just keep falling down and I have to fix them every 20 minutes.

PLUS SIZE thigh high socks outfits
Source: Pinterest

Even when the thighs are well fixed, my “muffin top” on my thigh ( I tried my best to describe…) just keeps squeezing out and that’s definitely not what I want.

It takes me some time to figure out what kind of thigh-high socks suits me the best and it’s always worth it.

Now, I do find thigh-high socks really flattering on me, and here are my 8 tips on how to wear thigh-high socks for plus-size ladies.

Enjoy!

1. Be intentional about the fabric

For the first tip, let’s talk about the basics first.

If you want to look good in your high-knee socks, it’s always worth it to invest some money in them.

I’ve bought some really cheap socks before and realized there’s no spandex in them.

Spandex is a lightweight fiber to gives some flexibility to the fabric and makes the high-knee socks more stretchy and breathable and that’s really crucial for us!

So ladies, always look for high-knee socks with a higher percentage of spandex material to avoid a refund!

Trust me, this is plain torture to wear knee-high thighs without flexibility.

🤍🤍🤍DISCLAIMER🤍🤍🤍:

The truth is, we are all perfect imperfections…

You want to learn all the styling hacks ONLY if you feel like it.

Remember, we never have the need to “fix” our bodies!

plus size women

You don’t have to be pretty like HER, you can be pretty like YOU.

And believe it or not, there’s still NOT ENOUGH plus size fashion content on internet till today..

I know…crazy right?

plus size women outfit ideas

So ladies, please kindly pin or share this blog post so more plus size fashion babes like you can come across this resource…and together, we build the community together<3

Thanks loves!❤️❤️❤️

2. Go monochrome for your legs and shoes for elongating effect

For the ladies who worry wearing thigh-high socks will make you look shorter, this is not true!

If you are wearing the common black over-knee socks, you can always wear black heels or black pointed flats for a tone-on-tone look.

With the V shape shoe lining and the same color as your high knee socks, it makes your legs appear to be longer and slimmer.

Of course, you can go with dark grey socks with grey shoes, they can look flattering too!

But always avoid wearing shoes with a big color contrast with your socks as this will visually separate your legs into a few different chunks and fail to avoid a slender leg figure overall.

3. Wear a sheer thigh underneath the thigh-high socks

As I’ve said before, I can’t help but squeeze the “muffin top of my thigh” whenever I wear thigh-high socks.

One of the easiest ways to deal with that is wearing the invisible sheer thighs underneath so gently squeeze my legs a little bit first before applying the thigh-high socks.

That way, those muffin tops will be less obvious and also hide my cellulite at the back of my leg too!

If you want a more slimming effect, style your black thigh-high socks with a sheer black thigh underneath is always a perfect look! “

After all, “Black x black” = double flattering!

4. Wear Fake Thigh high socks

If you think tip 3 is too much work for you (which is not actually…), you can always buy the fake thigh-high socks!

Source: Aliexpress

Yes, this is a real thing sold on Aliexpress and other places online.

With the fake thigh-high socks, you can look like you are wearing over-knee socks while in fact, you are just wearing normal pantyhose!

But since this is a relatively new product, their sizing may just stick to at most L.

But still, I want to share these tips with you as I realized not so many girls know about it.

You can always keep an eye out for the oversize fake thigh-high socks in the near future!

5. Pull your over-knee socks inside out

Another way to avoid socks from falling is to pull your socks inside out like in the photo above!

how to wear over knee socks

You don’t need knit over-knee socks to do that, you can do it on any kind of socks.

With easy folding and some adjustment, it can prevent your socks from falling.

Unless your socks are too loose, otherwise this trick should work!

6. Use Roll-On Body Fixative on your thighs

This tip is basic but I know some ladies out there still struggle should they get one.

roll on body fixative amazon

Seriously, procrastinate no more as you will need this in many unexpected ways.

Besides applying them on the thigh area to keep your socks up, you can always use body glue for the loose top and tube dresses.

Nothing exciting, I am using JOBST Body Fixative that everyone else is using. All I can say is this little glue meets its slogan – IT STAYS!

7. Wear black garters and elastic clip garters

When it comes to garters, people always think of sexy lingerie.

Source: Etsy

While that can be one of the ways to style your over-knee socks, you can always try on these functional elastic clip garters to spice up your socks and prevent them from falling in the meantime!

I am really excited that I’ve found these cute pairs from Etsy!

I have to admit that I am addicted to buying different types of elastic clip garters to style my over-knee socks now.

Christmas is coming (in 2 months)!! and in case you want to spoil yourself…

Pretties, may I present you the two bags that you will never regret buying AND won’t break your bank so you won’t feel guilty afterwards …

From my backend data, almost every 3 days someone from my email list will buy these two bags lol (Different sizes – some prefer mini some prefer the normal).

8. Avoid printed over-knee socks

Last but not least, avoid the big prints on your over-knee socks.

When it comes to over-knee socks, I do think less is more, and black plain socks are always my favorite.

Not only does it look classy, but it can also pop up on my top and dress as well. If you are really into printed over-knee socks, at least you stay away from the big prints like thick stripes.

Big prints naturally have an exaggerated effect.

With the big prints on the stretchy over-knee socks, it can further widen and shorten your leg, which is a big Nono.

❤️ 2025 Update ❤️
