knee high boots?

I would go with the new Chanel knee high boots with the pearl heel.

What are 5050s?

Tall boots by Stuart Weitzman that are leather in the front and a stretchy material in the back. The construction makes them more fitted than some other boots (and they are a godsend for those of us with chicken legs who don't always want to bother with finding a shoe repair place that will make boots more narrow). They come in different heel and shaft heights, but PP is likely referring to the over-the-knee version.

FWIW I think they are very frumpy and dated and I'm surprised they seem so popular on this thread...

I like them when it's really cold out but I still want to wear a skirt or dress. I didn't break them out the last two winters, but it's looking like I might want to this year given how cold it is already.

I don't think you should assume anything

They are very much in style. I got some boots high and low at Weitzman online. $700 boots for $275. Most are sold out but they get new ones too.

You know those aren't actually ever sold for $700, right?

I suppose. The knee-high ones are nowhere near as ubiquitous.

And where exactly are you going in a knee high boot?

Not the OP, but I went to a holiday party a few weeks back with leather skinny pants, a leather halter top and beautiful over the knee suede boots. I'm thin though. One of my husband's friends said, I'm sorry, but Got dam you look good! It was not a very DC outfit.

Just because men find an outfit hot does NOT mean it's fashionable.

I’d be totally mortified if a husbands friends said this about or to me. Not the attention I’m looking for, but to each their own

I love ones linked below. Also, tall boots are absolutely everywhere right now, with skirts, dresses and under wide leg pants.

It's not a DC outfit because it ISN'T boring as hell! Good for you, PP. I'll bet you looked great.

by the way I have black 5050's and wear them with my DVF wrap dresses and I look fantastic in a sea of super boring.

This sounds like the quintessential boring and DCUM outfit for 60 year olds.

Lord people. It was very fashionable. I get compliments every single day. Mostly because I don't dress like a frumpy DC woman. I am a lawyer and executive. I'm horrified by women in DC.

This is the most dated look I can think of tbh...
