Ankle boots are the fall staple that never go out of style. Whether you love them chunky, sleek, heeled, or flat, ankle boots instantly add polish to any autumn outfit. But knowing how to wear them—especially with different pants, skirts, or layers—can totally change the vibe. Let’s walk through how to style ankle boots for fall without overcomplicating things.
Cozy Layers & Classic Denim
Start simple with a cozy knit sweater and your favorite straight-leg or skinny jeans. Tuck the jeans into your ankle boots or do a slight cuff if they’re a bit long. Add a plaid scarf, gold jewelry, and a structured bag for that fall-ready, coffee-run look.
