How to Wear a Dress With Combat Boots or Chunky Creepers
The Sassy-but-Sweet Trend That's Taking Over Fashion Week

Having fun with fashion is one of the best parts about personal style. And, of course, there are few times of the year where personal style is on fuller inspirational display than during Fashion Month. The fashion set has brought their A game, showing everyone exactly how we're going to be wearing all of those runway-ready trends in real life. While we're stopping short of actual "camp," we're still making a nod toward this year's Met Gala and Costume Institute theme, pairing high with low and masculine with feminine and opting for the whimsy nine-and-a-half times out of 10. In short? We're not taking ourselves too seriously, and there couldn't be a more perfect time to embrace the sentiment.
One of the biggest street style trends that has begun to emerge this season is the pairing of chunky creeper-style boots and shoes with ultragirlie dresses. Whether they are flowy, babydoll-inspired, bright pink, or vintage in style, some of our favorite trendsetters are embracing the masculine-meets-feminine trend in a way that complements their apparel on both ends of the spectrum. Ahead, find six ways we can't wait to style the trend and how we're shopping for it right now.
