I Wear Ankle Boots and Jeans Every Day—These Are My Favorite Combos
As I've probably mentioned a million times in the intros of my stories, I wear jeans a lot, and pretty much any time it's not too hot for it, my footwear of choice is some type of ankle boots. As you can imagine, this has landed me with quite the collection of both denim and footwear, but like all of us, I end up with a handful of favorites I wear on repeat every season, above all the others. Right now, this selection consists of four different pairs of jeans (two black, one blue, and one leopard) with six different pairs of ankle boots. Below, I’ll be showing you just what these are, telling you what makes each item so great, and of course, making it all shoppable. Well, go on and get started below!
These are my newest jeans, and I've been wearing them many days and almost any night I go out. They go so well with all boots, actually, but especially these super-easy and extremely comfortable Western ones from Paige.

This is the first of three photos in this roundup where you'll see me in these Agolde Pinch Jeans that I'm obsessed with right now. I highly suggest everyone buy them. These Dr. Martens I paired them with in this shot are perfect for walking around the streets of NYC, and I'm confident will prove even worthier as we get more into winter.

Up next, we have an older pair of (unfortunately no-longer-available) Citizens of Humanity jeans, which I've found a similar replacement for below, paired with my statement-making Anine Bing boots. I just love the contrast of the white star on the predominately black boots, and the Western touches all around.

Back in my Pinch jeans, here I've paired them with incredibly sleek, croc-embossed boots by Freda Salvador. I love how they give me some height without looking too dressy to wear in the day.

While I tend to keep my overall style (and color palette) pretty neutral, one of the few things I make an exception for is a good animal print. I love these leopard jeans by Paige so much, and they look perfect with my longtime-favorite simple black ankle boots from The Row.

Last, but certainly not least, we have these showstopping python-print boots by Gia Couture, again with the Pinch jeans. If you want a standout piece that will still be easy to style and go with just about everything you'd wear black boots with, these are the shoes for you.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2020, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch 90 Day Fiancé.
