Blake Lively has been the poster girl of flat shoes with a twist for a while now, and on a recent walk in Manhattan she gave us fresh inspiration for a new essential.
In recent photos the actor was seen wearing Dr. Marten's boots that are a variation on the classic 1460 model. The same shoe but the Crazy Horse variant, these Doc Martens are a natural-type of oil leather with a worn appearance and we love them for an autumnal vintage vibe.
Classic Dr. Martens are always a solid go-to, but we'd argue that Blake Lively's are even more versatile.
Pairing the boots with mom jeans, a tartan print blazer and a belt, Blake Lively makes off-duty autumn dressing look like a breeze.
The worn and aged look adds an informal vintage touch, with the laces in the same tone as the boots for a muted overall look.
A classic with the iconic AirWair sole, the 8 eyelets for the laces and the yellow stitching lean into the iconic Dr. Martens style but provide a trendy update. While they're an investment at £169, these will last you a lifetime not only because they're incredibly sturdy, but moreover because they're an absolute closet staple.
PSA: They're the perfect alternative to Birkenstock Bostons.
