While everyone is (rightfully) obsessed with jeans-and-nice-tops, there’s an underrated duo that we think needs more attention this autumn: dresses and ankle boots.

In changeable weather, this killer combo allows you to rock your fave dresses while keeping your toes warm as the days get colder. It’s a failsafe outfit formula that’ll carry you from work to wine with the girls, or brunch to a birthday party.

Whether you prefer lace-ups or heeled boots, we’ve compiled a handy list of chic dresses that pair perfectly with autumn-proof footwear.

  1. Wrap Dress:

A wrap dress is a timeless piece that suits lots of different body types, and pairs perfectly with ankle boots. The wrap style creates a flattering silhouette, and you can choose from various lengths and patterns. For an elegant look, try pairing a wrap dress in a solid colour with a pair of heeled ankle boots.

  1. Cosy Sweater Dress:

As the weather cools down, a midi sweater dress is a cosy autumn option. These dresses typically have a relaxed and stretchy fit with long arms for extra coverage. Pair a chunky striped knit midi sweater dress with ankle boots and tights for a warm and stylish ensemble, perfect for a Sunday stroll or pub lunch.

  1. Versatile Shirt Dress:

A shirtdress is a wear-everywhere piece that can be dressed up or down for any occasion, and works well with ankle boots. These dresses have an easy-going button-through fit and can be cinched at the waist with a belt for a more defined silhouette. You can choose a classic cotton shirt dress for a casual look, a colourful printed option if you want to turn heads – just add your favourite ankle boots.

Why Are Ankle Boots So Good With Dresses?

Absolutely, there are several compelling reasons why ankle boots are a fantastic choice to pair with dresses:

  1. They’re seriously versatile: Whether it’s a chunky style or a glossy point-toe option, ankle boots are suitable for both casual and dressier occasions. This adaptability means you can effortlessly transition from a daytime look to a more formal evening outfit while keeping your favourite pair of ankle boots on.
  2. They’re perfect for seasonal transitions: If you need to transition between the seasons, the ankle boot is your gal. These boots can be worn comfortably in both spring and autumn, when the weather can be a bit unpredictable.
  3. They’re comfy and supportive: Ankle boots typically provide more support and comfort than heels or sandals, making them a practical choice for extended wear. The ankle support they offer is especially beneficial when you’re wearing a dress, giving you more stability and balance
  4. There are loads of textures to choose from: From classic leather and suede, patent leather to metallic finishes, the textural variety of ankle boots allows you to play with contrasts, adding depth and interest to your outfit.
  5. You can choose a heel height to suit you: Prefer flats? Love a low heel? Hankering for a high heel? The diversity of ankle boots means you can choose the heel height that best compliments your dress and suits your comfort level.
