It’s officially boot season, which means I’m breaking out my Doc Martens pretty much nonstop. I’ve always loved how they can completely transform an outfit, adding that perfect touch of edge.
Whether you’re a long-time Docs lover like me or are just trying out the trend, you’ll love these cool and stylish outfit ideas I’ve gathered below.
1. Cropped Sweater and Light Wash Jeans
For a laid-back daytime vibe, this is a combination I’m constantly reaching for. Pair your Docs with a cropped beige sweater and some light wash jeans. Adding a black belt really makes the look feel complete. It’s such a comfy and cool outfit.
2. Fuzzy Jacket Over Sweater Dress
If you thought you couldn’t wear dresses with Doc Martens, I’m here to tell you that you absolutely can! Just try them with a fuzzy pink jacket worn over a white turtleneck sweater dress. All you need are some black leather leggings to finish it off.
3. Strapless Crop Top and Mini Skirt
I am obsessed with an all-black outfit. It’s always so sleek and stylish. For a look that shows a little skin, pair a black strapless crop top with a black mini skirt and your Doc Martens.
4. Graphic Tee and Slit Skirt
Take your graphic tee and Docs to the next level. All it takes is an edgy black maxi skirt that has a thigh-high slit. I just love the mix of masculine and feminine elements here.
5. Crochet Cardigan Over Maxi Dress
Here’s another amazing way to style your boots. Grab a black maxi dress and a cream or white crochet cardigan. That chunky knit texture is the perfect piece to balance out the dress.
6. Graphic T-Shirt Dress
Let’s talk about one-and-done outfits, because they are a lifesaver on busy days. Your Docs are the ideal complement to an edgy graphic t-shirt dress for a look that’s totally effortless.
7. Cozy Sweatshirt and Lace Skirt
You can create such a cool look from the contrast between edgy boots and a feminine skirt. Style your black Doc Martens with a long-sleeved black sweatshirt and a pretty white lace maxi skirt for an easy, cool-girl vibe.
8. Striped Top and Blue Jeans
Sometimes you just want to keep it casual. This timeless combo always looks cool, so you can’t go wrong. Just wear a black and white striped long-sleeved top with some blue straight-leg jeans and your go-to Docs.
9. Polka Dot Midi Skirt
Why not have a little fun with prints? I think this look is so preppy yet edgy. Wear your boots with a black long-sleeve top and a red polka dot midi skirt.
10. Wide-Leg Trousers
If you’re going for a more androgynous look, this is a great option. Style your crop top and Docs with some gray wide-leg trousers. A black belt will pull the whole outfit together.
11. Leopard Print Midi Skirt
Let your wild side show by pairing a black long-sleeve crop top with a leopard print midi skirt. Add in your white Doc Martens for a look that’s both fierce and feminine.
12. Blazer, Crop Top, and Leggings
For a dressier approach, try a beige cropped blazer over a black crop top and leggings. When you finish it off with your trusty Doc Marten boots, it adds just the right bit of edge.
13. Leather Jacket and Pants
Pairing leather pieces with Doc Martens boots is a move you can never go wrong with. For ultimate biker-chic style, try your Docs with a black leather jacket and matching black pants.
14. White Tank Top and Distressed Jeans
Let’s boost the edge factor of a classic combination. Start with a white tank, distressed light wash jeans, and a leather jacket. Finishing this look with your Doc Marten boots is the perfect final touch.
15. Plaid Mini Skirt
You can switch out the solid black mini for a brown plaid one. This simple trade adds a fun, schoolgirl vibe to the strapless crop top and Doc Martens outfit.
16. Oversized Blazer and Hoodie
Another way to work dresses into your Doc Martens outfits is to get creative with layers. Try wearing an oversized blazer on top of a light gray hoodie, black leggings, and your boots.
17. Oversized Button-Up and Leggings
You can make your boots the main event by keeping the rest of your outfit simple. An oversized sage green button-up shirt, a black crop top, and leggings really let your epic boots shine.
18. Turtleneck and Leather Pants
Turn your Docs into the star of a monochromatic outfit. I love this gray turtleneck sweater and black leather pants combination. It’s so effortlessly chic.
