A fashion essential is something every girl should have in their closet, that will never go out of style! Every week, we’ll be featuring one article of clothing, along with some examples of how to rock it.
This week’s essential? Combat boots!
Why You Need Them in Your Closet:
There’s nothing that toughens up a look like combat boots. At a time we could have called these lace-ups a hot trend, but it looks like they’ve quickly become an essential as well. Not to mention they’ll keep your feet warm in chilly weather. You can rock this essential in both skinny jeans and with your favorite skirt or dress. With combat boots, it’s hard to go wrong!
Three Ways to Rock It:
1. Selena Gomez

We love Selena when she’s dressed in a gorgeous fairytale gown and we love her dressed down to a simple graphic tee and jeans. In this pic, Sel waves to photographers while rocking her combat boots. They match her jeans and the peace sign on her shirt perfectly while adding a little bit of edge with their silver studs.
2. Stefanie Scott

Stefanie dresses a little girly on top with her pink textured top and layered gold skirt, but her black boots definitely toughen up this look. The tall boots complement the short hem of her skirt perfectly. It also goes with the black outline of her blouse and skirt and the color of her military-style jacket.
3. Bella Thorne

Black is definitely one of the more popular colors for combat boots, so we love how Bella Thorne mixes it up by wearing these sparkly boots! Bella’s outfit is a perfect example of how combat boots work great for dresses as long as the hem doesn’t touch the floor.
