THE FAILSAFE
NEW YEAR PURCHASE

Possibly the most versatile item in your winter wardrobe, a sleek pair of ankle boots will see you through every style (and weather) eventuality. Buy them now, wear them forever

Afirm fixture of every winter ensemble, ankle boots reign supreme at this time of year. Your go-to saviour when even the thought of baring your ankles is enough to give you a chill, step into this sleek, super-comfortable leather pair and you’ll never want to take them off. Team them with this season’s straight-leg jeans (a frayed hem for extra kudos), adding a cashmere knit or white shirt for an effortless look that can be worn to the office or a leisurely weekend brunch. If the clock strikes for cocktails, think Sixties chic with opaque tights, a black roll neck and cute mini skirt. Basically anything goes – and the best part is, they will never go out of style.
