If you wear ankle boots and skinny jeans, how do you wear them? Do you tuck your jeans in the boots? Cuff your jeans above the boots? Put jeans over boots?
Are your ankle boots tight around your ankles? Does that matter how you wear them with jeans?
There are days I just feel so fashion challenged.

hem of jeans rolled up or cuffed so that tops of ankle boots are visible. Should be able to see some bare leg/ankle.

I cuff. If you have a pinterest account, there are great pictures. Do a search on skinny jeans and ankle boots.

Most of my skinny jeans and leggings are ankle length so I just let them be as they are which is usually a scrunchy look.

SockMonkey, thanks for the article. Pictures always help. I didn't know cuffs were a thing.

I can't seem to make this look work for me. Maybe my legs are just too short to pull it off? I don't know, but it is not cute whenever I try it.  |

I see lots of people wearing them and it looks great. I just have fears that I am not pulling it off as well.

Sockmonkey-That was a great article with very helpful photos that explained everything very well. Thanks so much for posting it! I am very fashion challenged. I know what I like and I tend to stick to classic type clothing. But I am loving the bootie trend this fall, I just haven't the guts to try it. I bought a pair of amazing ponte leggings from Talbot's that I got for 50% off, and I've picked out the pair of booties I'm planning on buying to go with them.
Anyway, this article was extremely helpful. It gave me the nerve to break out of my comfort zone. Thanks so much!

I like the look of the little bit of skin showing between the bootie and the cuff, however the first time I wore my new booties that way, they rubbed a big ass blister on the front of my leg that took 2 weeks to heal. From now on, either the jeans will be tucked inside or outside the boots and I'll have on socks that are taller than the top of the bootie.
Damn fragile old lady skin....

I like my boots pretty close fitting around my ankle so I let my jeans bunch up a bit and just sort of sit there 😊 |

I wear both my leggings and jeans inside the boots. My boots are usually the same color as the pants I am wearing.

The boots I have are slip on so are not really fitted around my ankle, kind of a large gap. I also live in a cooler climate and like my legs warm. The article showed a variety of ways to wear them, like there is no wrong way, you just have to find what works for you.
Thanks

I have been wearing (loose) booties with Rockstar skinnies from Old Navy. They end just above ankle, so I either do the 1/2 cuff (from the link) or just leave the as is, and a little leg may still show naturally.
