Ankle boots have taken over, but I still wear flat boots with tights and pencil skirts. If the boot is sleek enough, I even wear them around my office when I have to be up and down the stairs a few hundred times a day. And what is better than finding those boots on sale?

Oh, thank you for this. I wasn’t sure if tall boots were appropriate for the office any longer. I have wide calves, so I thought ankle boots would be perfect, but it turned out that they were pretty unflattering on my plus-sized silhouette. Plus tall boots are so much warmer!
I don’t wear them on big meeting or big hearing days. But keep them real sleek, keep the tights opaque, and I fell they kind of blend in. Though, word of note, they look a bit jarring with a suit.
I just invested in a pair of Frye flat knee high boots that were heavily discounted at Nordstrom Rack. Best gift I’ve ever given myself. I’ve started wearing them a couple times a week to the office on days we’re out of session and I couldn’t recommend the idea more.
Cannot thank you enough for including a wide calf option!
