Ankle boots have long been a model-off-duty staple, and sock boots are one particular iteration the runway pack favours. From the Yeezy rendition that put the fashion-forward style on the map to Stuart Weitzman's classic take that has a celebrity cult following, sock boots are here to stay. Most sock boots come with a hefty price tag (Yeezy's sell for a cool £689), but leave it to Hailey Baldwin to introduce us to a pair that costs less than £200.
Baldwin is a fan of the Tony Bianco Diddy Stretch Bootie, black pointed-toe sock boots that sell for £131. The model first debuted her pair in July and has stepped out in the ankle boots twice in this past week alone. Most recently, she paired the sleek footwear with an unlikely ensemble of an oversize graphic tee and loose-fitting khaki trousers rolled up to show off her boots. Two days earlier, Baldwin attended Karlie Kloss's 25th birthday wearing a decidedly less casual getup—a modern evening look made up of a long grey silk slip dress and her go-to sock boots.
