I finally found a good looking + affordable pair of over the knee boots! They aren’t anything fancy (faux suede from Forever 21) but they were a bargain and definitely do the trick. I’ve lusted after a pair like this for years but could never stomach the cost and always had trouble finding a cheap pair that didn’t look it.

These tall boots lend themselves to a shorter skirt or dress like I have on here, but also work great with leggings. I think they will be a wonderful transition piece once the weather starts warming up too. Unfortunately the weather is not at all pleasant in Toronto where I am right now, but regardless these things are certainly more insulating than just having tights on! Especially with a long coat like I’m wearing above.

I was lucky enough to spend a few days with friends and family and am now heading to a work conference just outside the city. Glad I had these boots to bundle up with on my trip!
