ways you can style and wear them goes on and on my personal favorite is the classic fitted black blazer that skims over the body giving a beautiful silhouette such a statement piece they always look smart and sophisticated you may prefer a flat sole or a boot with a small heeled arm but a knee-high boot is a great piece to have in your wardrobe for any occasion the knee-high looks lovely under dresses over jeans underneath skirts get black brown or tan knee-high boots can look really chic and elegant a smart pair of trousers that can be dressed up or dress down isn't essential in an elegant lady's wardrobe one with some loafers or some Bally pumps they have that Audrey Hepburn kind of feel and is lovely for a daytime look swap the flats for some heels you can transform the trousers from
