Our Boot Runneth Over….The Knee
Fall is upon us, and so is boot weather.  There of course is the ever so stylish ankle boot, but here at DesignerSocial, we’re pulling for the kind that one pulls a little higher.  We love the over the knee trend, and these Pour la Victoire Wedge boots are perfection… extremely comfortable and one of the best looking styles out there.
A word of caution for those who want to sport the look:
If you’re short or petite, go for a style that doesn’t completely throw off your proportions making you look stumpy
Yes they may be stylish, but with sky high heels, you might start looking a little less chic and a little more Julia Roberts, a la Pretty Woman

Wear it with:

The Jimmy Choo Tulita Flap tote.   The boots are fairly simple, with no frills, so the structured and sleek style of this Jimmy Choo tote would really complement them.  It’s got just the right amount of gold hardware detailing to add a bit of interest to your look.
Tote available now on DesignerSocial.com.
