No boot

Why: if you don't hold a pair of boots in your wardrobe, get out there now as they will make skirt wearing a joy.

or

Calf-length boot

Why: the meatiness of the calf will overflow. These are fine when the top of the boot is hidden.

and

Ankle boots

Why: this is a very dangerous form of footwear - it makes even the most refined legs look large and tarty. Fine under trousers, but put them on a thick calf and you'll see they are the worst accessory possible.

best boots

Pull-on, tight around the ankle

Why: although difficult to locate, this shape that ends just under the knee is the best look. The calf is entirely covered up and they also work miracles on thick ankles. In fact, with these pull-ons, the bulkier the ankle the better.

alternative

High ankle boot

Why: by hiding the ankle until the calf zone, the thickness is entirely hidden and well disguised.
