With snow predicted in UK weather forecasts for next week, it’s safe to say winter is coming.
And while we love a slinky stiletto or fashion-forward mule, sub-zero temperatures are not compatible with dainty shoes.
We need frost cracking, snowball stomping, puddle proof boots to see us through the great British cold snap – and we’re in luck when it comes to trends.
The clumpier the better is the rule for this season’s boots, and a simple flatform can elevate them from a nondescript school-run option to a statement element of your outfit.
The key to working this look is confidence. Lean in to the larger-than-life qualities of your footwear, striding with pride until the winter is finally over – at least until next year.
You can also mix things up with bright colours or unexpected textures. A pull-on boot goes with everything, so invest in a pair that’ll see you through the trend cycle and get plenty of wear.
