I thrifted these cute boots last weekend. They're a little big so I'll need cotton or shoe wool. I'm a little stumped on how to wear these. When I wear them bare-legged or ankle socks, it seems like my chicken ankles look, well, very chicken-like. When I wear them with even the sheerest of black hose, my legs look stumpy, unlike when I wear them without hose. I wish I could find the perfect nude hose, you know something that would actually be nude on my complexion But until then, how do I style these?

Thank you!
