When we talk about practical, everyday boots, the conversation inevitably turns to Dr Martens. They're a top-tier boot, always reliable (once you’ve broken them in, of course), and their sleek leather, yellow stitching and lace-up style make them both timeless and instantly recognisable.

When it comes to styling them, you’re spoilt for choice, and there is lots of inspiration out there, but we’ve found an easy look to recreate thanks to Amanda Seyfried, who stepped out in a pair earlier this year.

Get Amanda Seyfried's Look

If you haven’t yet dipped your toe into the world of Dr Martens, there’s no better first pair to invest in than the classic 1460 boots. They’re the brand's classic style and, in sleek black leather, are a versatile addition to any wardrobe. This style never goes out of fashion and remains highly sought after.

The boots’ sleek silhouette and timeless lace-up style mean they pair effortlessly with everything from your best skinny jeans and leggings, to midi skirts and dresses, and, as Amanda proves, tailored trousers too. Her choice of smart trousers over a more casual pair of jeans gave her look a sophisticated edge that was also striking, thanks to the monochromatic palette.

Selecting a tailored, slim-leg pair of trousers meant that Amanda could treat her smart trousers like a pair of leggings or skinny jeans, tucking the leg into the shaft of her Dr Martens boots, adding a practical and directional feel. Amanda left the laces loose at the ankle so there was no awkward bunching of fabric either. A casual and cosy look that delivers on practicality sounds exactly like where we're at right now.
