The ankle boot has not really caught on at Harvard, as we are constantly behind on every trend, but I’m sure they will eventually filter into our collective aesthetic, in geekier and less elegant forms. In order to handle this contingency, I offer you: THREE ANKLE-HIGH TIPS 1) Do not pretend that you are not wearing ankle boots by covering them up with jeans.
