Summer Trend: Ankle Boots with Cut-Offs

There's a big trend in town and it's super chic and cool for summer. It's all about pairing denim cut-offs with darling ankle boots and I love it...on them. I'm actually terrified of the trend for myself. But, there is a part of me that's dying to give it a try. I mean, I have every element in my closet so I wouldn't have to shop for anything. What I'm lacking is confidence! See how the celebs, Heidi Klum, Nicole Ritchie, and Rachel Bilson have styled the trend effortlessly!

So threw together a style board of how I would wear this look. I own the Rachel Zoe shorts featured, and from the day the arrived on my doorstep, I have worn them non stop! (They are literally in the wash every weekend. I just haven't a captured a photo....yet!). With the shorts, I'm thinking cute peasant tops, sleeveless tops, and cute drapey ones as well. The booties can run the gamut. I love the idea of a low cowboy bootie, but the chunky heel of the gray ones are super chic as well.

What do you think of this current trend? If you own any or all pieces, give it a shot! I think in the coming weeks I'm going to put my nerves aside and just go for it!
