Stuart Weitzman Boots Giveaway. Plus, His Tips on How to Wear

For most of us, "thigh high" is not the most inviting fashion phrase ever uttered.

But after laying eyes on Stuart Weitzman's gorgeous "HiLo" boots, $650; Jildor.com, you might be singing a different tune, which is why we're offering you a chance to win a pair!

There's no denying that this uber-tall style is the boot of the season and, surprise, Victoria Beckham led the way.

If you thought you'd never go this far, a top designer's words of wisdom just might change your mind about how to approach this huge trend. Think: Parisian woman fetching coffee and croissants in 1968, not pre-makeoever Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman."

Shoe guru Stuart Weitzman gives StyleList tips for pulling off (er, on) the trend.

  • These boots are made for a woman who wants to be noticed. Comfort and confidence are key.
  • Stick with classic colors. Brown and black work, and the less ornamentation the better.
  • It is OK to show skin with the high-heel thigh high. But with the flat thigh high, it should be worn with tights, with jeans tucked inside, or with a mini skirt paired with tights.
  • I would say these work best with a simple outfit. Color is certainly not forbidden, but let the thigh-high be the wow factor and the ultimate accessory.

Check out other chic over-the-knee styles at Jildor.

And now that you're a convert, enter to win your very own pair of this season's must-have item -- the Stuart Weitzeman "HiLo" boot.

Here's how to enter:

  • To enter, leave a confirmed comment telling us what you'd wear the boots with.
  • The comment must be left before 5pm ET December 15, 2009.
  • You may enter only once. One winner will be selected in a random drawing.
  • One winner will receive a pair of "HiLo" Stuart Weitzman thigh high boots (valued at $650).
  • Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, the District of Columbia and Canada (excluding Quebec) who are 18 and older.
  • Click here for complete official rules.

I would wear these awesome boots with my black tights and a faded denim mini skirt and a brightly colored soft shirt to accentuate my tan. Even though I reside in Florida, it gets really chilly here sometimes!!

I would love to pair those gorgeous thigh high boots with a pair of black tights and a long bright blue sweater that I just bought from Mango last night! Then I would wear it with a floral dress and tights that I havent worn yet! I've never thought to own thigh high boots because I'm turning 30 in 2 weeks and thought maybe not but those are a great, classic pair!!!!

I think I'd wear these awesome boots with skinny jeans and then a burnt peach colored short sleeve sweater. Or an awesome T shirt like one of the Cast t's for a more laid back casual look.

I'd wear these boots with a soft white tunic dress that hits at the thigh, and leggings. The innocence of the white would balance out the sexiness of the boots.

Ode to Stuart Weitzman's "HiLo" boots

How would I wear you Stuart Weitzman boots?
Let’s start with my black tights, a staple from my youth.
Next, I’d add my favorite black & white wool mini, in Houndstooth.
For the top, I’d go with a black turtleneck, an absolute;
Layered with a black button down jacket, from my skirt suit.
Doesn’t that sound really cute?
