How to Style a Classic: Combat Boots
With everything going on this year, it comes as little surprise that combat boots have become a favorite again. After all, what is more cathartic that fashionably stomping around the streets (or just around the house)? Sturdy and warm, the style may seem intimidating, but with so many riffs on the classic combat boot, there is a pair for everyone. Whether you like a classic boot, or want to update your aesthetic with something more edgy, the staple is season-less and works in a number of textures and colors. The best part: it's a breeze to take the style and elevate it. Try them out to add an edge to your favorite clothing options like denim, trench coats, and yes even dresses. We rounded up six options and how we would style for each season, below.
