Halle Bailey Brings the Drama in Slouchy Vinyl Thigh-High Boots

Halle Bailey shared a carousel of images Thursday on her Instagram, highlighting a particularly striking pair of boots. The caption on the post aptly read, “these boots are made for walkinnn… 🎶.”

The “Do It” songstress donned a dramatic pair of thigh-high boots making its case as the star of her ensemble. The thigh-high footwear featured a pleasing glossy vinyl texture with slouchy uppers transitioning into unique squared-off toes. The striking set also included thick and tapered block heels that stood at an estimated 2 to 3 inches in height. Often considered the sexiest boot silhouette, thigh-high boots most often stop mid-thigh for an elongated leg-climbing look.

Commonly made of leather or suede, thigh-high boots are extremely versatile and can often be found paired with mini skirts or shorts, dresses featuring high slits, or very tight-fitting pants. As we move into the colder seasons, many top celebrities are beginning to adopt thigh-high boots for their looks.

Going green, the “Forgive Me” singer was outfitted in a large shearling coat in a vibrant matcha shade. The outerwear appeared to be made of matte leather and trimmed with voluminous tufts of shearling trim and lining that surely kept the hitmaker cozy. The garment also included silver eyelet detailing. Underneath the outerwear, it appears Bailey sported a knitted high-neck mini dress, also in matcha green.

Bailey’s personal aesthetic style tends to consist of modern pieces with a trendy air. From cozy streetwear fits to show-stopping red carpet looks, Bailey always manages to serve up some serious style inspiration. She has also made a name for herself within the fashion industry. In 2020, Chloe and Halle starred in a Fendi ad campaign for the label’s Peekaboo handbag. The Baileys also collaborated with Teva to create a capsule collection of sandals in 2018.
