The Winter Hack You Need to Know to Keep From Looking Frumpy

I love pairing my chunky boots with trousers, but I have to admit it can look a bit frumpy. My pants cover the top of the boots and it looks like I’m wearing heavy, ugly shoes.
But there’s a way to fix this, and all it takes is two hair ties. Let’s get to it!
Tools and materials:
- 2 hair ties
1. Get dressed
Put on your pants and boots and remind yourself how frumpy you look.
2. Add the hair tie
Fold the bottom of your pants to the side and pull on an elastic hair tie over it.
Leave an inch or two of pants below the tie.
3. Pull up
Pull the tie up until the bottom of your pants is above the top of your boots.
4. Tuck in
Tuck the bottom of your pants inside your boots.
Let the pants balloon over the hair tie to cover it.
Repeat on the other leg.

The end result is pretty neat, don’t you think?
This is also an excellent way to save the bottom of your pants from getting dirty if it’s snowing or raining hard. And it will keep the salt off your hemline as well. Just a win-win all round!
