When skinny jeans first debuted (or should I say most recently debuted) a few years back, I really, truly thought it was a trend that would come and go. And that neither I, nor anyone larger than a size four would partake. Well. Now I’m eating my words and then some. Skinnies arrived and they’re better now than in the 80s, because they’re not all high-waisted and acid washed, and because denim has come a long way, baby. It stretches, hugs, lifts, and is more comfortable than ever before. Which is why Vanessa Hudgens practically lives in her Nudie Jeans. And why not? They’re as versatile as leggings—without the need to cover your you-know-what.

You know when bad style happens? Usually when celebs—or mere mortals—are trudging through everyday life: to the gym, to the gas station, to pick up the kids, to the salon. Unlike some celebs who think sloppy is permissible (or synonymous) with casual wear, Kim Kardashian knows that casual can still be chic. Her latest wardrobe trick is to throw a blazer over a long-ish top, add skinny jeans and a perilously high bootie, and POOF! It’s the perfect, practical, photo-appropriate, running-errands outfit.

It’s not often that I meet a flat that I like, but these flat over-the-knee boots by Chloé aren’t exactly your everyday flat boot. A little pirate (with their folded tops), a little bondage (with those glorious leather straps criss-crossing from back-to-front), these boots are both edgy and practical. Imagine how great they’d look with black tights and winter shorts or leggings and a boyfriend cardigan? Ahhh. I can almost imagine sliding them…uh. Wait. Not at $1.295 a pair!

So back to that fantasy of being the ingénue in fab flat boots and shorts…thanks to Jeffrey Campbell, it is actually possible. Save yourself more than $1.000 and grab a pair of Jeffrey Campbell City Over-the-Knee Flat Boots. Like the Chloé boot, they have those wonderful criss-crossed straps, and you can still walk a mile in them. And should your feet begin to experience some pain, at least your finances won’t. Available in black, blue or ivory.
