Is it only me, or have fashion enthusiasts everywhere started opting for this cooler year-round silhouette instead of sandals?

      There’s one style of footwear I consistently turn to, no matter the season, and that’s boots. Let’s face it, a rain-free summer in the UK is never a certainty. A cloudy morning can transform into anything, from a light drizzle to a heavy downpour. While I enjoy experimenting with trendy thong sandals and rope-soled shoes, boots are my preferred option when temperatures drop and the skies inevitably darken.

      Now, I know you might be thinking: Summer styling usually calls for sandals. I appreciate a good pair of sandals just like everyone else, but boots—especially when styled with summer outfits—offer the practicality essential for British summers. Plus, classic boots are sure to complement everything in your capsule wardrobe, which is a significant advantage!

      It’s not only us Brits who favor summer outfits with boots. After exploring my social media feeds, I’ve noticed that some of the most fashionable individuals in cities like Paris, London, Copenhagen, and L.A. are also rocking boots this summer. Now it’s up to you to choose your style! Will you opt for cowboy boots or a motorcycle style? Traditional riding boots or classic knee-highs? Luckily, all styles seem to be trending right now. If you're wondering how to wear them, keep scrolling to discover seven of my favorite summer outfit-and-boot combinations for the upcoming season.

      **Summer Outfits With Boots**

      1. **Frye Boots + Jorts + Off-the-Shoulder Tee**

       **Style Notes:** I first stumbled upon Frye boots on American fashion TikTok and have been captivated ever since. They have a vintage charm that elevates any attire. A rule I adhere to when pairing jorts with boots is to embrace some leg exposure! This look creates an effortless pull-on-and-go vibe. These boots are equally stylish with a maxi or miniskirt on cooler days or a dropped-waist dress when it’s sunny.

       **Shop the Look**

       I’ve noticed several people on social media pair these boots with trendy silk scarves.

       - **Agolde Ellis Mid-Rise Denim Bermuda Shorts**

       Jorts with a Bermuda cut—what’s not to like?

       - **Na-kd Soft Line Draped Top**

       I prefer this kind of off-the-shoulder top; it appears much more expensive than its £26 price tag.

       - **& Other Stories Large Patent-Leather Tote Bag**

       If you're in need of a bag to throw everything into and dash out, this is the one.

      2. **Brown Knee-High Boots + White Linen Skirt + Striped Tee**

       **Style Notes:** I think everyone has owned a pair of brown knee-high riding boots at some point. They haven’t been on my radar recently, but now they’re back in style, and I’m eager to find new ways to wear them. This straightforward silhouette strikes a perfect balance between playful and sophisticated. With most of your lower body covered, they'll keep you warm on cooler days.

       - **Reformation Nancy Knee Boot**

       I prefer darker shades over lighter ones, and this pair from Reformation is sure to garner compliments.

       - **ALIGNE Natalie Elasticated Cotton Midi Skirt**

       With its natural volume from the A-line cut, this skirt is ideal for warm weather.

       - **Maje Rib Knit Top With Boat Neck**

       - **Anthropologie The Love Knot Slouchy Bag: Buckle Edition**

      3. **Brown Moto Boots + Lace Skirt + Graphic Tee**

       **Style Notes:** When I purchased my biker boots last year, I didn’t anticipate the moto trend would explode like it has. They’re so easy to style, and I reach for them as soon as the weather turns gray. For a casual look, tuck them under jeans paired with a denim jacket in a Canadian tuxedo style. When it gets warmer, simply switch to shorts! A key look in my off-duty wardrobe is channeling Millie Holmes (as seen above) by combining these boots with a graphic tee and lace maxi skirt for an outfit that’s both elevated and cool.

       - **Cruel Pancake Off-White Kiss Me T-Shirt**

       I’ve been eyeing this tee from Cruel Pancake for a while, and after seeing it on Holmes, I think I might finally purchase it.

       - **Reformation Mirabelle Knit Skirt**

       The bag that every editor loves.

       - These encapsulate summer perfectly in the best way.

      4. **Black Pointed-Toe Heeled Boots + Black Lace Skirt + Black Leather Jacket**

       **Style Notes:** An all-black ensemble is always chic, and Tobi Ojora nails the long skirt and boot pairing. The trick for wearing a long skirt with boots is
