Can you wear thigh-high boots to work?

Well, the answer is yes and no. Yes, you can wear thigh-high boots to work if it appears appropriate. Of course, the main factor for this outfit is not to show too much skin. It might be best to wear pantyhose to cover any skin. And choose a dress that is at least mid-thigh length.

You don't have to be a model to look this good at work! A simple white sweater dress looks business-like when paired with a pinstriped suit jacket, like this one. Pantyhose with black thigh-high boots complete the outfit.

Do you wear socks with thigh-high boots?

Yes, it's important to wear socks with thigh-high boots. Check out the reasons here:

• More comfortable
• More hygienic
• Safer

Firstly, it's more comfortable to wear socks with thigh-high boots. Pressure from the sides of the boots might create bruises or blisters without socks to protect the skin. You can't walk on a blister without pain!

Secondly, it's more hygienic to wear socks with thigh-high boots. Your skin has natural oils and bacteria. In particular, the feet have 125,000 sweat glands. The oil, bacteria, and sweat will transfer to the boot if you wear the boots without socks. This is what creates the bad smell in your gym shoes!

Thirdly, it's safer to wear socks with thigh-high boots. You're more likely to slip and fall in your boots if you don't wear socks because your toes and feet have nothing to grip. So, avoid the embarrassment and pain and wear socks!

By the way, the socks do not have to cover the entire length of the boots; they should be at least calf height. If you're wearing pantyhose with thigh-high boots, then you don't want the socks to be thigh-high. But you should still wear socks over the pantyhose for comfort. No one will see them, so it's okay!

How do I make my thigh-high boots not fall?

Some boots have laces to tighten them, so they don't fall. But most thigh-high boots don't have laces. You have a few other options, though:

• Use fashion glue
• Wear thick socks
• Use bootstraps
• Apply double-sided tape

Can I wear thigh-high boots in summer?

Although it is not as common, you can wear thigh-high boots in the summer. In the heat, it would be best to wear a sleeveless dress or a dress with loose sleeves, especially since thigh-high boots tend to trap more heat. Remember to wear socks with them!

Here is a gorgeous, white summer dress with a gold and white belt. This woman looks comfortable in the black thigh-high boots. Notice how the boots do not have a high heel. Thus, you can walk in the grass in them.
