Cute DIY Boot socks!
To all the girls that love the boot socks but can't seem to find them anywhere, I have a solution for you!

I admit, I didn't come up with this, although I wish I did, but I found it on Pinterest and needed to tell everyone. What a great idea! Find cheap printed leggings that you like, cut off the bottom and wear them sticking out of your boots.

I seem to always see the perfect printed leggings for this, whether tribal, floral or striped at Marshalls. They're usually pretty cheap so these would be ideal to do this with. You don't want to cut up a nice pair of leggings you already have, so go out, grab some and start cutting!

When cutting, try to use a fabric scissor, they will give you the cleanest cut. You may have a little fraying at the end, depending on the material, so I would either fold that part under, or wear them so the clean seem sticks out of the boots and the rough seem is hidden inside. The length is really up to you but I would think that just above the knee of the leggings would work best. This gives you the versatility to either bunch them down to make them a little shorter, or stretch them up to make a more prominent look.

These would be a great addition to any outfit in the fall and winter, especially if they're paired with a plain oversized sweater, leggings and boots. Hope this helps, now go DIY it up!

Stay Cute! XOXO
