Fashion Don'ts
While fringe boots can turn an ordinary outfit into a kicked-up ensemble, you want to avoid going overboard with them. Do not pair fringe moccasin fringe boots with a Native American-inspired mini and fringed shirt unless you are going somewhere that requires a costume. Rather, pair a simple white T-shirt with a flowing skirt with fringe boots to create a more subdued look.In addition, while fringe boots for children come in a variety of styles from traditional cowboy to rhinestone-studded pairing them with sweat pants and Daisy Dukes may not convey the right fashion message.
Bottom Line
Kids fringe boots are hip and happening footwear. Some consider them a funkier version of Uggs. Regardless of how you categorize them, fringe boots for children are incredibly versatile. Knee-high fringe boots can be worn in colder weather while ankle versions can be paired with spring and summer apparel. Bottom line: Fringe boots are a worthy investment for kids of all ages.
