This outfit is true biker chic and Kate has really hit the right note! She looks sophisticated and it goes to show that there are some simple key pieces that work well together. The knee high black boots work well with her skinny jeans, and create a look that’s easy to wear for everyday. The tight black top is simple but looks fantastic worn underneath her black biker leather jacket. The chunky white bag breaks up the outfit and stands out against the black, giving lots of contrast. Kate’s oversized sunglasses finish off the outfit and add real celebrity style!
This outfit is perfect for someone with a straight up and down figure like Kate’s - subtle layering breaks up a long elongated, rectangle-like body shape. Avoid this look if you are curvy or bottom heavy, as this look will only accentuate heavier thighs or bottom.

If you’re looking for comfortable, but warm footwear this winter, these Georgina Goodman sheepskin boots might just fit the bill. There really is nothing quite like much maligned sheep skin for offering a warm and sumptuous feel. Ideal for chilly winter walks.
I also particularly like the smooth lines of the striped heels. A joyous stylistic touch.
Retailing for £355 ($710) at Georgina Goodman.

For the more sophisticated kind of boot you might want to check out a pair of these Ramekin’s from Pied a Terre. Given their suede finish it’s probably wise to use them in dry weather only - or at the very least ensure they are properly scotch guard protected. Take advice from the retailer on this before purchase.
Pied a Terre describe them as “60’s round toe lace up high leg boot. Suede Upper. Leather Sole. Heel 5 cm” which retail for £165 ($330).
