What Colour Jackets And Coats to Wear with Tan Ankle Boots
The best jacket colours to wear with tan ankle boots are navy, black and brown. Tan against navy gives strong contrast and a relaxed, warm-weather feel. Charcoal, olive, dark brown and burgundy also work. Be careful with light blue: a denim jacket is more casual than ankle boots, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: light blue is cool and bright against warm tan; it works, but white or grey would be crisper.
