I’m a style expert and women always make the same mistakes with their heeled boots – they make you look so heavy
WITH winter creeping around the corner, it’s time to ditch the trainers and swap them for more weather-appropriate boots that will keep your feet toasty.
From lace-up to the classic Chelsea, there are dozens of trendy styles to choose from – and Fabulous Fashion Editor, Clemmie Fieldsend, has even picked her five favourites.
However, if you’re yet to head to the high-street to replenish your wardrobe with some autumn and winter essentials, don’t rush into buying everything.
According to one fashion expert, Valeria Gratinskaya, from Bucharest, Romania, it’s important to choose wisely when shopping for footwear – one mistake and you’ll end up looking more chunky.
The young Ukranian stylist took to TikTok to reveal which style of boots to best steer clear of.
Sharing the video to her almost 13,000 followers on the social media platform, Valeria urged fellow fashionistas to not buy chunky heel ankle boots.

Though still loved by many since hitting the fashion world a few years ago, this style looks ”rough” and make the outfit look ”heavy”.
Valeria also explained that they ”cut your leg length”.
”They do not elongate, they just make you taller. With jeans they cut your leg length.
”And these are not classics, unfortunately,” she noted.

Instead, the style guru recommended opting for black heeled boots with a more pointy toe and ones that go over your ankle.
Unlike the ankle length boots, the upper part of these tend to be tighter – and this little feature elongates the silhouette.

As well as being flattering and easy to style, the pointy heels also ”look feminine and delicate”.
”Boots can change the whole look!” the young fashion pro emphasised in the caption.
But despite Valeria’s advice, it seemed that not everyone was willing to take in board, and many took to comments to hit back at her.
One viewer wrote: ”Zero practical the 3, for me walking everyday… come on! your option sucks.”
Another reminded: ”Buy what you want.”

”why? these are such classics… plus they elongate the silhouette when worn with black stockings or jeans,” a third thought.
A fellow fashion lover cried: ”I don’t look good in pointy heels tho.”
