“Freia” Lace-up Suede Overknees by Ted&Muffy

So what is important when shopping for overknee boots? First make up your mind what kind of overknee boots you prefer: with heels? In suede leather or normal leather? Black, grey, beige or blue?

Let’s start with the first rule: when buying overknees be aware that these are statement boots, so avoid shiny and cheap material, like laquer or bright colors like red or white. Overknees are very flattering for all kind of women and you will get Giselle Bündchen’s dream legs, literally – so go for it!

When it comes to combine these boots, I like to play with silhouettes and materials. The boots are suede, the skirt is a bit shiny and heavy knit is always good! Since I am wearing a heavy turtleneck by Maison Martin Margiela, I find it important to add some “sexyness” with a simple slit midi skirt which shoes a bit of my skin without being too provocative. So what do you think? I hope I could help you a bit and let me know what you think! Love, Alice.
