I personally love a good ankle boot in the spring, whether it’s the same pair you wore all winter with jeans or tights, or it’s a pair with an open heel or cut-outs on the side (very trendy this year, just FYI). They make a nice contrast with flowy sundresses and are the perfect compliment to jeans and a cute tank top. But if you’re not sure how to style your winter ankle boots with your new spring and summer clothes, let us help. Here are 20 style tips on how to wear your ankle boots this spring, with a whole bunch of outfit ideas that are so cool, you’ll want to steal all of them.
1. The easiest way to make ankle boots work for spring or summer is to wear them with a sundress. Without the extra layer of tights, this look is really cute.
2. On colder days, you may have tucked your jeans into your ankle boots to keep your legs warm. In the spring, try cuffing up your jeans so that a sliver of ankle peeks out.
