These Boots Are Made For Riding

by The Zoe Report

Nothing says sophistication quite like a pair of luxurious riding boots. As such, I am constantly searching vintage boutiques and designer emporiums alike for that perfect equestrian set. The hunt is over this season, thanks to Christian Dior, who shows us how it is done with these refined leather beauties. They are the ones!

Though riding boots got their start as purely practical footwear for jockeys, they have long been a huge player in the fashion world. This fall, they are more on-trend than ever before with countless designers interpreting the style—Rag & Bone, Burberry, Ann Demeulemeester…the list goes on. Today’s Christian Dior pair won me over because of their stacked heel and enameled buckles. A little obsessed. They will transition you from autumn to winter, while instantly revving up any outfit with a dash of casual cool. For a getup that is guaranteed to be posh, throw them on with stovepipe jeans or leggings, an oxford button-up and structural coat. Now, off to the races! xoRZ
