Women's lace-up boots
Lace-up boots are a very popular shoe option among fashionistas for winter and off-season. These stylish and bright pieces, which should be in every woman's wardrobe, bring a unique charm and a touch of freshness to any ensemble.
Features and Benefits
The advantage of this shoe is its practicality and durability: if it is quite problematic to repair the zipper on the boots, then a torn lace can be easily replaced with a new one. In addition, simply replacing its color (for example, with a contrasting one), you can create a new fashionable image.
The lacing helps to achieve a better fit and to change the density of the fit. In winter, putting on warm socks, the laces can be slightly relaxed, and in the warm season, tighten them tighter.
This is especially true if you want to tuck jeans or trousers into your shoes, as well as demonstrate shoes decorated with spectacular details (buckles, straps, perforations).
The lacing itself can be a beautiful decor, give the shoe a stylish look and even sophistication.
These boots can be a great office option, also suitable for meetings in an informal setting. These products showcase the good taste of a woman.
As for the disadvantages of this shoe, then, perhaps, the only one is the duration of the shoe. But some lace-up models have a side zip that saves time while still providing an unparalleled look.
Note that lace-up shoes need to be selected depending on the characteristics of your figure. Tall young ladies don't need models with too high heels, which can cause emotional discomfort. But plump girls in this way, on the contrary, can visually stretch the figure.
Models
A huge variety of models of boots with laces will satisfy the needs of any fashionista. Products can have a high bootleg or reaching the middle of the calf. The design of these shoes can be rough, brutal, or, conversely, feminine and graceful (for example, shoes decorated with lace).
Lace-up shoes with heels visually stretch the figure, making it more slender. However, ankle-length models always draw attention to the ankles, so they should only be worn by those with flawless legs. A thin stiletto heel will perfectly fit into a woman's business and romantic look. A thick heel is more suitable for military and casual style.
Wedge-heeled shoes allow you to enjoy all the advantages of a heel (adds height, lengthens legs), but at the same time it is more stable and comfortable, which is especially important for the winter season. But for too thin girls, a high wedge heel and a platform are often not suitable, as it creates disharmony between thin legs and massive shoes.
