Tricky: What to wear with grey boots?

[luvsic]

I'm bad. On a whim purchase, I just bought these grey suede over the knee boots:

They were the LAST PAIR, and only 65 dollars opposed to the regular 140. I REALLY wanted them in black but just could NOT afford to shell out 140 dollars for them

Alas, I am determined to figure out what to wear with them! But I am fresh out of ideas. I don't even know what wash of jeans would look good with them

Drawing inspiration from Gossip Girl, I found this:

But...I don't think I'd wear that to school

I have a few questions -

Does anyone know what colored jeans these would go good with? White would look fine, although I don't own white jeans (gotta get a pair..) but what color wash?

How about tops? I am thinking basic white or grey sweaters, maybe striped (thinking along the lines of american apparel..for some resaon black isn't really doing it for me..) or maybe a sweater dress. That is all I can think of for now.

Any suggsetions?? TIA!!

When I make a bit more money this summer, I am TOTALLY going to buy them in black too

well, maybe...I need to save up for other things.

well i'm not that great with fashion advice but i think they'd look nice with skinny white jeans or perhaps the really dark indigo blue coloured jeans.

They would look nice with dark blue jeans. a wash like this

or even "jeggings"
If you wanted to wear them with shorts, a similar colour for jean shorts would be nice, or anything men's wear inspired ie houndstood, plaids, pinstripe, herringbone in browns, taupes, charcols, black, maybe in navy, maybe with a subtle printed sheer tight under

baiscally men's wear is what i woudl wear.
As for shirts, that depends on the bottoms, but grey is a neutral... almost anything would go. If your into the men'swear shorts, but might have good luck in late july when the back to school collections come out.

I would just wear them with whatever I'd normally wear black boots with-skinny jeans, skirts, etc. Sorry Im not much help.

Treat them as if they were black. Grey goes with just about anything. I'd war them with a little black dress or tucked into skinny jeans and a silk tunic and maybe a cardigan over top if it was cold.

I would wear those with every neutral color. Would definitely look to wearing them with a dress or skirt. Also really like the idea of dark blue navy striped shirt with a denim skirt. I think the fact that they are grey makes them more versatile. Grey goes with a lot of the same colors as black... some of my fave colors to pair w/ grey are dark blue, pink, or yellow. Because they're not black they're not as overtly sexy and I think that makes them more wearable in everyday life, but still easy to dress up.

try pairing the boots with black leggings and an oversized men's flannel shirt! You can cinch the shirt with a cute belt if you want to, to look slightly more polished
