Midi Boots, How They Work In Your Wardrobe
What even is a midi boot?
A midi boot is all about where it finishes on your leg.
It sits between an ankle boot and a knee-high boot, usually landing around the lower to mid-calf.
So instead of stopping at your ankle, it comes up higher and creates a stronger visual line through the leg.
A midi boot can either look incredibly chic, or a little heavy, depending on how you balance it.
They work beautifully when you pair them with midi skirts or dresses that slightly overlap the top of the boot but can be fully seen through a front, side, or back slit.
Where women often get stuck is wearing them with the wrong length, like a skirt that hits right above the top of the boot.
That’s when the leg line can feel shortened as the boot needs to be layered slightly or that between foot and leg line can look awkward (it's not part of your foot or part of your leg, it's the land of in between).
When you get it right, though, a midi boot adds that really modern, effortless edge to an outfit.
Oh, and don’t forget to still contrast your boots with your skirt or dress.
Even if you can see the full boot through a split, it’s that contrast underneath the calf that really frames the outfit from every other angle.
It just gives you that clean, styled finish, rather than everything blending into one.
