GEMS Fashion Tip - Boots


Ok, by now you know that GEMS carries some fresh kicks. Today we're going to explore how to rock boots. Some of you might shy away from boots or even be scared, GEMS understands your dilemma, so with that said lets begin. A typical question or statement which you might hear from people - "What would I rock this with?" or " "No, I don't wear boots." This statement is very unusual, especially since most of us live in the Northwest and it rains 200 days out of the year. Here's a few tips on how to style out boots

1.) Find yourself some denim, preferably dark denim straight leg or hipsters. Avoid the hipster jeans if your boot size is larger then a 10. ( really it's not a good look to wear hipster jeans and rock a 11 or 12 boot.)

2.) Find a button down of your choice, just make sure the color of the button down works with your skin tone ( seriously, I've seen some dope shirts fail due to the colors not matching the individual .)

3.) Find yourself a nice layering piece like a sweater, suite vest, sport coat or my favorite a Schott leather or Navy pea coat ( it always takes that third piece to put it all together.)

That's all it takes, hopefully this gives you some encouragement not to shy away from the boot game.
