Can You Wear Boots To A Wedding Female?

Boots can be a stylish and versatile choice for many occasions, including weddings. However, there are several factors to consider before deciding to wear them. Traditional Chukka boots in neutral tones like black or brown can be worn to a wedding, especially if they are chosen for their versatility. Women can also rock ankle or knee-high boots at a wedding, depending on the dress code and style of the event.

For men, classic Chukka boots are an excellent option for ankle-high boots, as they can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Women are encouraged to dress up in a floor-length evening gown or elegant dress. For casual daytime weddings, it is perfectly appropriate to wear a white dress shirt under a white dress shirt.

For women, high heels or pumps, dressy wedges, heeled booties, embellished sandals, or classic flats are appropriate. For men attending a semi-formal wedding, it is recommended to wear their best suit or sport jacket outfit. For semi-formal events, wearing the dressiest option with a jacket is a best practice.

Over-the-knee boots (or boots that fall just below the knee) are a stylish way to keep your legs warm as temperatures drop. Ankle boots can be worn at any age, and yes, they can be worn with dresses. Boots are often considered “formal” when worn with a dressy outfit, but they can be worn to an outdoor wedding ceremony as long as the pair is clean, polished, and matches well with the outfit.

In conclusion, boots can be a stylish and appropriate choice for both men and women attending a wedding, but it depends on the dress code and the style of the boots.

  • Do you agree with me? Which boot would you put in the NEVER wear list? Let me know in the comments below! More of a flat shoe wearer? Check out which flat shoes elegant ladies would NEVER wear here: youtu.be/iyP33DLqIfY Make style changes you’ve been wanting to make with my FREE workshop: nothingtowear.me/

  • The suede boots Anna mentions to wear instead of the moon boots would get seriously laughed at by those living in actual wintery climates! Anna’s suggestion of boots in this case reminded me of the movie “The Proposal” and how awkward Margaret (Sandra Bullock) initially looked wearing her city fashions and footwear in Alaska! Sorel winter snow boots (instead of moon boots) would be a much better choice, and they look really cute – in my elegant opinion.

  • I think most of the boots you’ve mentioned if not all, can be appropriately worn with the right outfits and style like you’ve personally mentioned as well on some of them. I personally like all these boots, some of them I wouldn’t wear because its not my style but I’ve seen the right people that know about fashion and appreciate fashion wear them nicely, and looked great on them. That looked 100 times better than your basic preference.

  • Hello Anna! This article is my favourite one so far! I have been binge perusal all of your articles for over a week now and must say that I absolutely love what you do! I was hoping, maybe you can make a article about 2000s fashion? I personally love this era for fashion but not sure if any of those styles are somehow elegant. Maybe you can find something elegant from this time period that we can wear nowadays? Wishing you all the best and will continue perusal your articles no matter what🤍

  • Hi, Anna! You’re my greatest discovery of 2023 ❤ I’ve really started thinking in more elegant way of styling although I’m more of juvenile/metal/punk style What I’d like you to film is a article about 2020’s aesthetics (like Y2K, e-girl and stuff) and your opinion about them (actually, there are many😂)

  • I agree with you in most of the choices, but idk if you can wear the alternative that you propose for moon boots on snow playing with your friends, the sock boot also looks nice but in different style, not with the pants that your proposed, and also for the platform boots I would have chose the variant of knee high boots with a skirt. The rest I agree with you, awful 😢

  • Your articles helped me so much a few years ago. It wasn’t until the pandemic hit that I purged my entire closet. I sold 240+ items on my eBay and Poshmark. Took those funds and purchased my Chanel mini flap, and Manolo Blahnik Hangisi. Today, all of my clothes are either cotton, linen, cashmere or silk. I have upgraded my wardrobe and more importantly my mindset. Looking back at old photos I’m amazed at how far I’ve come. A big part of my transformation came from your articles. Thank you, Anna.

  • My problem with most of the boots you’ve recommended is that, despite being only 5ft 4in and 118 lbs, my calves are extremely muscular and very wide. And my foot is very small, size 5 1/2 U.S. So even the specifically made “wide calf” boots still don’t fit over my lower legs! And with the few, rare pairs that do zip over my calves, it is literally impossible for me to tuck my pants into them. So sadly, 99% of these elegant recommendations will not work for my body type.😩😑

  • Classic style forever! Also, low to medium block heels. It looks so silly teetering around on high stilettos, I wouldn’t be caught dead in them, especially for daytime wear like boots. With a classic style, clothes and accessories rarely look dated, and in good quality and with proper care, last a lifetime. Quality fabrics and construction, classic cuts, great fit and simplicity and restraint make up the essence of elegant style.

  • I like certain almost-neutral colors in boots, like khaki green, navy and burgundy, in addition to my neutral pairs. Together, the neutrals and near-neutrals are the dominant colors in my wardrobe. Being mostly a skirt/dress wearer, I like to match the colors of my knee-high boots to those, with matching tights for warmth, too, not that they show ordinarily. I do the same with trousers and ankle boots and socks. Being petite, having one solid color on the bottom half of my outfit makes me look and feel a bit taller. I do have some slightly chunky boots that I wear for country walks, etc. Always low to mid-heels and almond toes, I’ve never been able to get a pair of pointed-toe shoes onto my feet. Of course, always 100% genuine leather or suede, except for my wellies, and natural rubber, not plastic, soles. I nearly died in a slip and fall wearing a new pair of shoes that had plastic, not rubber soles, it’s like walking on ice. I take new footwear in to have rubber soles put on first thing. My most-worn boots are my taupe suede knee-high ones (S. Weitzmann), they look best with the lighter colors of clothing I prefer. I put two light coats of protective spray on all new light-colored suede items, it’s a pain, but it really helps keep them cleaner, longer. Thanks, Anna❤

  • Hey Anna!! I just want to thank you for all of the incredibly helpful information you have taught me throughout the years. My father raised me, and he did a great job, but I never had a mother around to teach me how to be feminine and classy! I was never a tomboy, but it’s the little things that make the difference. Once Iw was a bit older and started my career, I was around a lot of wealthy people, and without you, I would be lost to this day!!! Now, to the article….I will NEVER understand the point of an open toe boot?!?! GROSSSS!!!! It totally defeats the purpose of it being a boot. ♥️

  • I love cowboy fashion …. wonder is it possible to love country style and elegant style at the same time becausei do… Im just in love with everything old fashion like from 1800s duchess, 50s housewives, country girls, to casual 90s to opd money look like Taylor Swift Anything other than what the current geberation wear like pyjamas to airports. Anyhow i never thought sneakers are classy

  • I like the red boots! I’ve had a few pair similar to those. It depends on how you style them, but yea, they’re not the most classy options I also like the tall denim cowboy boots. Although they would stain too easy. I don’t live in, nor spend much time in places where formal attire is expected, or worn. I have lots of beautiful boots and shoes, but no place to wear them. Its hard to reconcile my actual lifestyle with my imaginary lifestyle…😅

  • Could you advice what shoes to wear in areas that go to -20 degrees and only choice I found so far was mountain climbing shoes that would look alright on grizzly bear. I don’t know how to look lady like in cold, snowy, icy area. Thank you! 🧡 (Also, maybe we could discuss what nail shapes are elegant/not so..?)

  • Hi dear Anna! Could you make a article about what clothes are recommendable for various sports activities? (gym,dance,swimming,hiking,horse riding ect.) I’m not a fan of working out in the gym/park in bra & leggings but maybe there are more ladies who’d like to see recommendations of other options in cuts/colors/layers as well as nice quality brands that are worth the money and not just brand hype or advertised because of sponsorships. Would be a huge help 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼Cheers & Happy New Year to everyone!! ❤️❤️❤️

  • My daughter found over-the-knee winter boots on Amazon, and they are wonderful. In Minnesota, one of the coldest states, they make perfect sense, and she is always being asked where she got them from. Ankle winter boots never made sense here. Warmth is so important in cold climates, yet the style doesn’t have to be something awful like moon boots. (Moon boots are best worn by little kids.) Boots with stiletto heels are completely wrong for the snow and ice we live with for half the year, unless people don’t mind falling, sprains, and broken bones. The ice can be treacherous, so safety wins here.

  • I can’t even wear high heels, kitten heels or a small wedge is far as I can go. I also live in the country so I usually wear a boot from LL Bean that are good leather and I feel never out of style. I also have an ankle boot of black felt and small heel I wear with a long dress or slacks. I’m not into dressy shoes at 51 years old. I’m more about comfort now.

  • Please Anna make a article on winter boots elegant ladies should have! I know you already have one for autumn, but what about winter? I am struggling so much right now because when it’s winter you can’t be wearing elegant beige boots (they’ll get dirty in 5 mins), they have to be dark. On top of that, they are almost always ugly and big to keep your feet warm and away from snow and puddles. Help please!!

  • I’ve always liked Anna’s fashion articles, it’s a simple concept and also very helpful to keep in mind while you’re out shopping. Over the last two years or so Anna has really invested into her content – the information is very informative (as she is educated) but the film quality/effects has truly improved. Thank you Anna!

  • I wish you had given more detail about how to wear over the knee boots in an elegant way. I remember you mentioning in a previous article that you’ve worn over the knee boots elegantly boots for winter. (Sorry can’t remember which one) do you have any tips and I’m 5’2 I need height, so no flat footed boots for me

  • +AnnaBey Anna purchased these hideous boots for us. Bless your heart. The things you go through to help us. We appreciate you. Do you have a link for the proper boots, especially the exception to the platforms and the light-coloured riding boots. Is there an alternative for the cowboy boot? I am from the South (Alabama) and sometimes there are occassions for those boots, but I want to remain a Southern Belle and not manly/boxy.

  • 5:29 After hearing this from the lovely Ms Anna, I feel like I wanna throw a pair of Uggs her way. A specific pair. A pair I had years ago.. (10 minutes on google later) The Fluff Mommas. They were by no means cool or whatever, but they were warm and comfy and they damn sure turned a lot of heads in my small town when I wore them in public. Lol

  • I agree with you. I am 55 Years younger lady. I am from the Era where the majority of people were Elegantly Wardrobe Glamorous. I am not fond of the 21st. Century Fashion’s. When you were showing and wearing the Moon Boots. Hilarious, because I am perusal 2006 Britain’s Next Model Season 2 Episode 1. On their first photos challenged. The Models Swim wear challenge. They had the Models wearing those ridiculously looking Silver Moon Boots.

  • I actually own a jet-black denim calf-high (~6cm) heeled boots. Clean lines + no fabric/denim frills or fringes + no 80s-look i.e. exaggerated folds at the ankle. It looks good on me, and comfortable walking around in it. So, maybe not all denim boots deserved to be burnt at the stake for being unclassy. Have to look at its shape, tailoring style & colour.

  • It’s hard to find good boots and that fit properly in the toe box area. 8:01 I agree with you. The stores are filled with junky boots. There might be only 10% of boots sold in a city that are nice but good luck finding them or if you do, finding your size because they’re all gone. The nice ones that you are wearing are certainly not sold in my stores. All I see are those moon type of boots or those ankle type that are not nice with dresses or skirts. I love boots mid calf with a low heel – they look elegant and not too high and not too low. But so hard to find.

  • Ha! I didn’t like those 80s boots the first time around! But they made a bit more sense then. The heel wasn’t as high and a bit more chunky. Also they were made to go with the then fashionable ultra skinny jeans, the ones that zipped at the ankle because otherwise your foot wouldn’t fit! (Never wore those either.) The slouchy boots were made to go over those jeans. That was the only way to wear a boot. Also, the entire top was slouchy. There wasn’t leather above the slouch. Wouldn’t want to hide that calf, would ya? Thanks for the trip down memory lane 😂

  • I don’t agree with colorful shoes/ boots. A few days ago I saw a personal stylist who wore red vinted boots to grey / white outfit. She looked amazing! Very sophisticated. However the boots were very good quality and elegant and looked at the same time different, unique and a Little spicy. It is all about what kind of shoes you choose. I do prefer to add some personal unique items to even elegant style otherwise you start looking like other women and lose your uniqueness.

  • Absolutely horrible boots! I agree with your statement with regard of fashion trends ongoing lately. Having said that, the Moonboot cannot be substituted with the Hermes suede boots you are wearing, unless you are in a winter resort that is without snow! Completely different function. Could you put together a article on chic winter snow outfit and shoes/ boots that are warm, snow proof and reliable ? I live in an area where snow is very common in the winter and I am sure I am not the only one.

  • I don’t understand the shark boot – I know it is a full shoe (I’m looking it up right now, price is upwards of $2k!), but it looks like a sleeve you can wear over any shoe, and not one that is shaped at all, either. It just looks like a tube you would slip on, then put on any shoe and let the tube fall down over it. And Givenchy actually got people to pay $2k for this?

  • Although I agree with most of this, however how does Anna manage to find the most atrocious version of each style. Case in point, that platform boot was the thing of nightmares, the square toe, platform that slants outward making it look like a hoof lol. 🤣 Some of these styles are definitely not redeemable (any denim shoe), but some, if you get the right version and styled properly, can be very stylish

  • Honestly, some of these boots you advised against can totally work In an elegant-feminine closet. You just have to know how to style it. (This content is a bit regressive considering you’ve recently put out articles saying anyone and any style can be elegant- but then you bash items saying one “could never wear them” and be elegant- but they totally can.) I get this is your personal opinion but your messaging seems to be inconsistent.

  • I was perusal a youtuber who said people who wear luxury name brands have low self esteem. Of course, I could say the same for her, I could say, “Is your self esteem that low that you can’t groom yourself, fix your hair, wear makeup, dress up a bit more?” In her defense, her website is about saving money, but that comment was uncalled.

  • One thing that will most definitely dissuade me from even touching those boots is the seam that goes whole the way “through” them, like the one on your slouchy and denim boots. It looks so cheap. Imo. Omg, I’ve laughed so hard at those three pairs of “thank you for waisting your money, Ana, just to show how ugly we are” boots! 🤣 Truly awful! You’re a real champ😘 Love from Croatia 💙

  • Sometimes we see trends on instagram/pinterest and they look kind of cool, like the Givenchy shark boots, but when you see them person or in live motion like Anna showed here without the specific lighting, angles and such you see how actually bad they look. Like these boots, they really do look ridiculous on the leg

  • 9:24 i don’t like this boot any more than you but I think the idea behind unflattering silhouettes is that you are really dressing for the joy of it, how you are perceived in terms of attractiveness is not the focal point. Of course they aren’t elegant but for anyone confused about who wears these things and why, just wanted to share.

  • Oh Anna, I’m going to have to disagree with #1. Those alternate boots you showed gave sailor hooker boot vibes hahahha. If they didn’t have the laces and were just a simple leather boot it would have been good. Btw the “ugly” boots, are they from your personal collection or did you have to go purchase just for the show because those chunky ones….🤢

  • I finally replaced my flat, round-toe slouchy suede boots with a better pair. I never much liked them, but was desperate for a pair of navy leather boots. One wouldn’t think so, but it took me 25 years to find a pair of navy genuine leather knee-high boots (finally found at House of Bruar, a Scottish apparel company online). I saw plenty and tried one pair, but I they all were wide-calf. My calves are so skinny that normal-size ones look like too wide on me, so they didn’t work out.

  • Don’t buy via internet. Try clothes on in order to establish how they look on you and fit you. Let schooled personal help you make the right choices. Keep cities and towns vibrant and welcoming by supporting local businesses who on the other hand offer jobs and pay taxes to the country/state/community. That’s what elegant ppl do.

  • In case you missed it. Please kindly note: When Anna makes the “suggestion” regarding wearing moon boots, she said she is using the other boots as “reference”! Ana informed that she doesn’t suggest you wear those type of boots referenced in the snow. That style was to simply reference a preferred overall style that may announce a classier look worn in cold weather.

  • It’s all how you wear it. You can’t say Kate moss is not elegant or chic and she used to wear and hand full of your no’s. Not everyone wants to follow your style Anna. I know plenty of educated wealthy and elegant people and they don’t look stiff or not polished just because they wear a little fringe here and there or bulky boots…..

  • I just love you and your doppelganger 😉😊 I’m 5’1 so I’ve learned so much from you! My biggest problem is finding affordable size 5 shoes of any kind! I’m in Florida so I would look ridiculous in boots when it’s still 90° here. Even jeans are too hot. Funny tho how what a wore in the 70’s 80’s even 90’s are back! Keep it coming for us💙💙💙👏👏👏

  • I am so happy to hear another short gal, like myself (I am barely 5’2!) veto any and all shoe styles, with a square toe. They do not flatter. Period. But that’s my personal opinion. Although I am envious of those, who can wear a pointed toe shoe, because it has the power to elongate shorter legs, when beautifully executed. My problem is with skirt length’s and finding what suits my height. I’m so glad to have found your website!

  • I like boots that are fitted at the ankles, too, rather than those thick-ankle ones or slouchies. I do have a pair of flat-heeled slouchy boots, I bought them because they’re the only navy, genuine leather pair I ever ever found. They also have round toes. Though comfy, I feel short and stumpy in them though, and am looking for a mid-heeled version, navy is my black.

  • I love bulky and platforms, but there is one very important thing, they NEED to be black. Combined with tight pants in black or leggings and a longtop they are amazing. The bigger/higher the better! But hey that is my gothic streak 🙂 Very big bulky shoes also makes the petit look very cute. But then again I mostly have black clothes and they do really fine under a long (and wide) skirt/dress as well. The best is if the shoes are the same color as the legs are, I really love my huge platform bulky boots, have had them over 25 years and still going strong and in slippery weather not afraid to slip. I really dislike any brown and beige colors on shoes, makes it look zo plain and dull… dark red, deep purple is fine, but white, beige or brown, juk, specially if they also have black soles. I would feel like a clown that way. btw, I do love your article’s, you have some great tips and love your humor! Keep it up 🙂

  • You’re so cute and funny 🙂 I don’t know if I count as petite (5’5) but liked these tips because even though I’m slim, my lower legs are “athletic” and I need to choose shoe and boot styles carefully! Glad you explained the lug sole on the taller boots, and that I’m right for always steering towards very pointed styles – always felt great in them, now I know why. Thanks!! 🙂

  • Hello! 🍁 Love your articles. It’s funny when you were talking about Ugg’s first thing what it came to my mind when they became popular was : it must be short from the word “ugly”. 😂 I never had one and never will, in my opinion they belong in Australian bushes where they came from and it shouldn’t be worn outside your house like slippers or bathrobe. 😁 It does not look good on anyone doesn’t matter if you are tall or short. Unless you like to have a bottom heavy bear foot. 🐻

  • I agree on uggs, chunky toe box and square toecap. I agree that knee high boots look much more flattering than midcalf. I also like to wear over the knee boots, but I prefer when there’s no skin showing between the boots and the hemline. I disagree on ankle boots and combat boots though. They should not be banned from the wardrobe. Ankle boots are perfect to wear with trousers, pants and jeans. They come especially handy with cropped bottoms, they can help to eliminate weird skin gap between shoe and hem, thus elongating the leg. Also, I love combat boots, they are so slippery-proof! I’d suggest to wear them with wide leg or straight leg trousers/jeans and that solves the problem. They are much more helpful than heels when it’s slippery ice skating rink weather outside.

  • Is returnable a scam to get people to buy things on your website? When I have a vest needs to return, I can’t get a return label also cannot find any customer service number. Usps staff told me they never download labels, petite dressing is supposed to give customers a QR code. But again I can’t get any body to help me, no number no reply of email….

  • 😉 Rarely wear boots in my hotter 😎 climate, but I fear I might have to invest in some chunky lug sole round toe boots for their wider toe pocket & comfort in future. 🤣Will soon have to wear orthotics to correct developing 🦶feet🦶 issues. My take aways: choose Knee boots to minimize curvy calf muscle & lengthen visual line; Soles that match boot leather – avoid two tone styles that shorten you visually; Make sure boots match hosiery (i.e., tights/socks) &/or bottoms (i.e., skirts/pants) to elongate the vertical line. 🤫 Although if I can find a wider width, I am on the hunt for a nude below the ankle 🤠 cowboy booties. 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal’s YT acct)

  • Thank you for your website. There is a young lady on youtube who has a website. She is an extremely nice person and has a super positive attitude. However, she wears whatever is popular or cute, with no care at all about how it looks like on her. She has huge feet, yet wears gigantic clunky boots. She wears clothes that are in between an old lady and a teenager. Some self-awareness is needed to dress your style as well as what looks best on you.

  • I am 5’1″ and disagree with most of this. I have wide feet and have been used to military boots. Now that I’m wearing heels, I try to go more for comfort and room in the toe box. Most of my shoes are square toe and are flattering because they fit snug around my calf and hit either a above or below the knee. You’re examples of what not to wear were either too wide/loose on your calves or way too tall for your shin to knee height. I wear mid calf boots a lot with and without lug soles. They’re flattering with skinny jeans, tights, or bare legs. Wearing an I’ll-fitted grey midi dress doesn’t do any shoe many favors. Wedges aren’t our only answer especially since they usually don’t look super classy. Great article, but like others said- make the comparisons more even and realistic. Try finding/comparing boots that you typically think don’t think you like, but actually fit properly. Loose or too tall of boots should be avoided for ANY type of boot. Which takes trial and error. Not trying to be mean at all. You’re super cute with some great advice!
