he sensational Queen of Hip-Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige has done more than captivate us with her soulful voice. M.J. also reigns as a true trendsetter with her impeccable and daring fashion choices. From the stage to the streets, she has left an indelible mark on both the music industry and fashion landscape. If there’s anyone in Hollywood who slays the best in boots, Mary J. Blige has proved time again that she’s the reigning Queen of Boots.
Here are 10 times Mary J. Blige’s Boots gave what they should give…
#1. Met Ball
During the 2023 Met Gala, M.J. opted for a custom Burberry blue floral dress with matching thigh-high boots. The long sleeve dress, with its high slit and plunging neckline, was unbelievably magical. Pair that with the matching floral boots and you see why this was one of the unmissable coordination at the gala. The blonde hair, neutral makeup, and minimalist yet luxurious jewels gave us everything we’ve ever looked out for at Met Balls.
#2. Boots and fur
Mary J. Blige makes boots a sight to behold. The fact that there’s always a boot for every style and occasion is enough to acknowledge her slay prowess, and this look is a great example. The off-white thigh-high boots worn over her fitted jeans added a dash of edginess to the offering. Then her fur jacket and over-the-top jewelry brought a heavy dose of luxe hip-hop vibe that only she can pull off. Indeed, a master of the craft.
#3. Brown boots on brown skin
Without words, Mary J. Blige steadily shows us who’s queen. Here, we see her flaunt her royal baddiness in a knitted cropped top paired with a maxi knitted jacket, fitted jeans, a brown handbag, and of course, boots! What makes this take a beautiful sight is that she opted for boots that corresponded with her rich complexion. Her chunky hoop earrings, oversized sunglasses, and animal skin belt endeavored to sing in unison with the ensemble. Kudos M.J. I’m definitely recreating this look!
#4. Blondie and blues
In these cooler months, take a cue from M.J. and slay in blue boots. Grab a blue sweater, black leather pants, and a black fur vest for a casual day out with friends. Then complete the look with chic blue boots that are sure to make a statement when you show up. Yup, even the dipped temps wouldn’t stand the heat.
#5. All shades of brown and gold
Back in Easter, Mary J. Blige blessed her fans with a stunning ensemble to celebrate the resurrection day. She showed up in a golden-brown jumpsuit that perfectly accentuated her curves and spoke volumes. For a more figure-enhancing effect, a statement Valentino belt was called upon, adding a touch of drama to the look. But what stood out were her shiny gold ankle boots that elevated the ensemble to a whole new level.
#6. Three-piece crush
Oh, this one steals the show! The Queen of Boots stole attention in a three-piece handmade coordination by Bronx and Banco. While the high-waisted shorts and corset top were undeniably stunning, the third piece – her thigh-high boots – made the most noise with their unique flair. Her ability to wear any offering with grace plus her fashion-forward sensibilities were well displayed in this outfit. She once again demonstrated that she’s a true trailblazer and monarch when it comes to fusing daring outfit selections.
#7. Animal attraction
If there’s a word that best describes this fashionable take, it’s fierce. Back in March, the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul rocked this Dolce & Gabbana leopard-print midi dress to perfection, pairing it with matching gloves and boots. The figure-flaunting piece revealed her wild side as her chunky Schiaparelli gold earrings added a hint of chicness only she could pull off with such finesse. Meow!
#8. Sexy shimmers
Long ago, we came to the realization that Ms. Blige is like fine wine — only gets better with age. But if you ever doubted, this look is sure to convince you. Here, the vocal powerhouse wows in an embellished black dress by Matthew Reisman adorned with strategic cut-outs. She continued the sexy affair with boots peppered with rhinestones, effortlessly embodying a captivating charm that leaves everyone in awe.
#9. A lemonade affair
If you’re ever in a style rut on an elevated causal day, try jeans, a fur coat, and boots; Ms. Blige proves that it always works. The music sensation was a vision of lemon-green delight in this cool-weather appropriate getup featuring a relaxed lemon tee from Balmain tucked into fitted jeans and elevated with lemon below-the-knee boots and a matching fur jacket. Her ability to seamlessly marry textures is a testament to her fashion know-how.
#10. Leather it up!
With this look, Mary J. Blige embraced the urban vibes of New York City, leaving a lasting impression with this fusion of street style and high fashion. The upbeat leather tracksuit found its soul mate in her block-heel boots, oversized sunglasses, and statement jewelry that further proved her appetite for a daring slay. With each step, the Queen proves that fashion is what you make of it and her genius is a fearless approach.
