All the cool girls are accessorising their boots in 2025

This year, it’s all about taking your boots from basic to absolutely fabulous, and let me tell you, the girls have cracked the code. Think of your boots as a blank canvas, and the accessories? Endless options. So, whether you’re a knee-high queen, an ankle boot addict, or someone who refuses to part ways with her cowboy boots (respect), here’s how the It-girls and street-style stars are styling theirs.

Boot Chains: Because your ankles deserve jewellery too

 

Chunky boot chains are the new anklets. They drape over your boots like an effortlessly chic afterthought except, we both know, no cool-girl move is ever truly effortless. Whether it’s rhinestone bling, vintage gold links, or grunge-inspired silver chains, boot chains are adding main-character energy to every step. 

Lace-Up ribbons: Bridgerton core, but make it edgy

 

This season is all about swapping out your standard boot laces for something a little extra. Think velvet ribbons, neon cords, or even printed scarves woven through eyelets for a totally unexpected pop of personality. Imagine your favorite childhood craft project, but make it fashion.

Boot cuffs: leg warmers, but cooler

 

Boot cuffs are stepping out from the Y2K vault and into 2025 with a sleek upgrade. Forget those chunky knit styles of the past, this year, we’re seeing faux-fur trims, denim wraps, and even metallic mesh versions that scream high fashion. It’s like giving your boots a winter coat, and honestly, they deserve it.

Charm clips: Because why should bags have all the fun?

You’ve clipped them on your bags, you’ve dangled them off your belt loops, and now, we’re putting charm clips on our boots. Whether it’s tiny initials, celestial symbols, or full-on charm necklaces (for the girl who loves to make a statement), these little details are making every step a little bit more fabulous. 

Spurs, but make it fashion

Okay, hear me out. Cowboy boots are already a whole personality, but 2025’s cool girls are taking things up a notch with decorative spurs. And no, we’re not talking about full Wild West yeehaw energy but rather sleek, sculptural accents that clip onto the heel of a boot for a subtle Western-inspired detail. Whether it’s polished gold, futuristic silver, or encrusted with teeny gemstones (hello, extra), this is the kind of flair that makes people stop and ask, “OMG, where did you get those?”

Stockings + boots: The unexpected romance

Somewhere in a parallel universe, knee-high boots and patterned stockings were always meant to be together. Lucky for us, 2025 is the year they finally figured it out. From lace tights peeking out of thigh-high boots to fishnets adding edge to your chunky platforms, this pairing is turning every sidewalk into a fashion runway.
