Model Irina Shayk braved the rain and high winds in New York City on Wednesday. The stunner put on a pair of black leather riding boots to protect her feet from the day’s weather.
Shayk is a huge fan of black leather boots. She’s worn them over the years both off the runway and on. While she often adds combat boots to look up the edgy factor, she’s also been known to slide into other leg-climbing styles. Of her choices, an eye-catching look was one thigh-high pair she wore from Burberry in August 2021 while in Spain.
Shayk ran errands in New York City on Wednesday, at one point being spotted with Lea De Seine, her daughter, whom she shares with Bradley Cooper.
