To ground the flowy silhouette, reach for ankle boots or square-toed sandals

Look and feel your best from morning to moonlight in the Pull-On Flared Trouser Pants in Plus Size by NYDJ

They would be worn at formal events to cover the waistband when men dined without a waistcoat, with the pleats up to catch the crumbs

The boot comes in sleek black leather, supplying timeless character and formal versatility

That said, there are certainly types of ankle boots that can look a bit dated, so if they're going to be on full display with, say, a minidress, you want to choose a trend-forward style such as Waterhouse's

Perfect for a date night or birthday party teamed with black, strappy heels and a satin clutch for a head-turning look
