How do you wear riding boots you might ask?

The obvious answer is on your feet, but with what?

The first thing that probably comes to mind is skinny jeans, or boot cut denims, but I’d suggest stepping out of the expected and think about pairing your boots with dresses, tights, stockings, and maybe even some corduroy pants. Check out these looks:

This oversized scarf, with similar colour detail that is picked up in the boots: LOVE. 

She keeps it simple everywhere else to balance. Well done.

Pair your riding boots with thick cable knit stockings.

Tights are NOT pants, and unless you are in a dance class or staring a Jane Fonda work out video 

YOU NEED PANTS.

I love the colours she’s chosen to pair together here, the vibrant teal and rich chocolate brown are heavenly, and the belted sweater is great for showing off her lovely shape. But the sweater it just too short to be worn without actual pants. If the sweater was a little bit longer, say mid thigh length it could work, but it is just too short to be worn with spandex.

When wearing tights or spandex your shirt should at least cover your behind in order to allow for tights. You could try this look with some black skinny jeans, or cords however.
