I'm a Fashion Editor in NYC—this is the one boot style I’ve been pairing with every outfit.
As the temperatures have dropped in New York, boots have become a necessity. Although I don't particularly enjoy trading style for warmth, black knee-high boots have quickly emerged as my preferred choice when I want to appear polished without feeling cold. For a dependable outfit formula, I often layer them over thermal leggings or tights and pair them with a midi or knee-length skirt along with a cashmere sweater. This combination is simple yet feels warm and thoughtfully assembled. Two of my top picks are the Vagabond Blanca Tall Boots and the Frye Campus Knee High Boot. I especially reach for the Vagabond option in the evenings due to their sleeker design. They ensure I don’t have to sacrifice style for comfort in the cold, and the low heel makes them easy to wear while I’m out and about. They instantly enhance my outfit. Below is a selection of black knee-high boots that are definitely worth wearing repeatedly.
