Love how you show how outfits that don't go well together, that's where I get stuck, going out tonight, got a few outfits to decide on, jeans and dressy top.

    That “sandwich dressing”, like with a black top and boots and white pants, is popular, but I leave that to the tall ladies. As a petite like you, Chi, I so agree, the color of the footwear should be similar to the pants for the longest visual line (socks, too, if exposed). As a mostly dress/skirt wearer, I match my boots and tights to the dress or skirt, too. I love a short skirt with matching thigh-boots and tights, it shows off my long, slim legs. (I’m a relatively long-legged, short-torso, petite).

Not sure why it took me so long to find you but you are exactly what I needed to get my style right. Especially now with the holiday season and I want to shop for new clothes on sale. Plus I am petite. I literally was thinking to look for boots and then I spotted this video and had to watch it. Very informative! Afterwards, I clicked on the "more" description and saw all the links to the outfits and much more for sure. I definitely will be spending time going through everything because I like making informed decisions when I shop. Thank you so much, you are amazing!

      Knee-height boots should work for midi or knee-length dresses. For shorter dresses, you need to add similar colored tights as boots to lengthen your look and avoid that horizontal cut she mentions in the video.

    You don't show any lace-up booties aside from the Doc Martens. I like lace-up booties with jeans or pants in a similar color to the pants as long as they have a slightly tapered toe. My foot is narrow at the back and wide at the front, I can make them fit without slipping. You can find them without really heavy lug soles. Of course that is a casual look. Very comfortable too.

    Unfortunately most of the unchunky boots you show won't work for women like me that live in Europe and walk a lot on uneven sidewalks. Heels are painful and definitely NOT functional here. Help! I like chunky soles to keep my feet further from surfaces. They work great for walking my dog and wet weather.

      Sorrel (and their dupes) make several versions of hidden wedge ankle boots with almond toes.
      The gum lug soles have great traction and the hidden thickness helps keep your feet comfortably away from cold, rough surfaces while still giving a sleek line.

    I think at every example you showed, you look better in the ankle boots than in the tall boots. I think it's because that unconstructed, loose material of the tall boots are just not flattering on you. You are probably a Gamine body type, you should wear more tailored, fitted, thicker materials.
