Suddenly I need a pair of white boots more than anything else

Suddenly I need a pair of white boots more than anything else

It’s not a new trend and it’s taken me a while to get on board, admittedly. But white boots have suddenly become the new essential item my wardrobe really needs. I won’t wear them right this minute, not on these dreary, wet-through-to-your-bones kind of days. But once the evenings start to lengthen ever so slightly, and the mornings have lost their nighttime feel, a pair of white boots will make so many outfits feel fresh and new and appropriate for the move into early spring. Literally, you can wear the same jeans and sweater combination, but by doing a straightforward swap from black boots to white, your outfit will look instantly more seasonal.

Here are the 11 pairs I can’t choose between…

Leather boots with wood-effect heel, €119 at Zara

Studded ankle boots, Marc Ellis, €137 (were €172) at farfetch.com

Clowesia leather ankle boots, Neous, €795 at net-a-porter.com

Hendrick high ankle cuff boots, €68 (were €125) at topshop.com

All Night block heel white leather boots, €102 at office.co.uk

Mid stiletto heel ankle boots, €90 (were €180) at dunelondon.com

Premium quality leather boots, €59.99 at H&M

Leather ankle boots with embellished heels, €150 at uterque.com

White leather open-back shoe boots, €80 at River Island

Howdie high ankle boots, €125 at topshop.com

Fold-over leather ankle boots, Givenchy, €318 (were €795) at net-a-porter.com
