I also do not think that what is shown here is mid-calf, but a tall ankle boot. Personally I have a pair of slouchy mid-calf boots that pair really nicely with slightly slouchy skinny jeans. I also have very slim calves and ankles, but it works for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590687 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 22:19:04 +0000 unfrumped 1590687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What kellygirl said. <br />I'm by no means a boot expert, but these are lace-up "higher shaft" boots and not what I call&nbsp; mid-calf. The benefit of the laceup actually is that they work better under pants because they hug the ankle, or with tights or maybe leggings that are truly thin and calf-hugging.</p> <p>The midcalf boots I think of with these pants are that stompier style with a wider shaft, Not a full-on Ugg look, but more ease. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590681 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 21:29:32 +0000 Brooklyn 1590681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would roll or scrunch for a lace up boot. I tend to tuck in if it is a Moto boot (the shaft is then a bit wider). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590676 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 20:59:39 +0000 Anonymous 1590676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second the rolled cuff with this height boot, but these look more like high shaft ankle boots than mid calf height.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590655 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 19:47:30 +0000 kellygirl 1590655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mid calf boots are my favorite height boot but I find the ones that are looser around the top easier to style. I passed on my pair similar to these to DD1--she wears them with dresses and looks very cute. I think rolling the cuff is a good option here too. It gets tricky though because you don't want too much bulk at the cuff.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590653 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 19:29:10 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1590653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If I don't roll or cuff I sometimes scrunch up the jeans around the top of the boot. I don't like that super-tucked look with mid calf boots either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590652 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 19:28:22 +0000 always trying 1590652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see a problem either.&nbsp; But if you do then you could try big socks either the same color as the boots or same color as the pants.&nbsp; others may not think it is a good look, but I love the idea of the leg warmers or boot tops that are not as big and thick as leg warmers, as shown in the photos.&nbsp; they can show a little or a lot, depending on your taste, or how you are wearing them.&nbsp; also a look I have done a couple of times are contrasting socks like this other photo.</p> <p>A look I particularly like is about 2 inches of thick socks or boot toppers showing with lace up boots. This is a cute sporty look with skinny jeans</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590639 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 18:51:53 +0000 Janet 1590639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would try rolling/cuffing the jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590637 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 18:40:26 +0000 lynn 1590637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see a problem here but I can't see the whole body. Any chance you could post a full body picture? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mid-calf-boots-skinny-jeans-impossible#post-1590630 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 18:08:47 +0000 ladyjules 1590630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For some reason I can't (ever) get my skinny jeans to look good when paired with mid-calf boots. It's driving me crazy. </p> <p>It always ends up looking something like this: (see photo) but even more frumpy because I can't wear skin-tight skinny jeans, so my jeans are not very tight towards the ankle. And I don't want boots that have a larger opening either, because I don't want cold air entering my boots.Not to mention my legs are so slim, I suppose it would work better if I had more curves around the calf...</p> <p>How would you style your jeans to work with this kind of boots?</p>
