Chunky Boots

<-h2->Chunky boots with a lugged sole<-h2-> Weight underfoot is the whole idea behind chunky boots this season. Our edit covers ankle, Chelsea and knee high shapes on lugged soles, in black, brown and tan leather look and suede look finishes. The sole is what shifts the outfit above it: a straight leg jean and an oversized knit look sharper with something substantial at the hem, and a knitted midi dress gains an edge it would never get from a court shoe. Balance is the trick, so keep the line slimmer on top and let the boot carry the volume. For a long Saturday that runs from a market into a pub, a black Chelsea style with denim, a trench and a crossbody bag is the entire thing. For an evening, a lugged sole ankle boot under a slip dress with gold jewellery gives a soft look some backbone. A heavier sole turns a soft outfit into a deliberate one.
