When we talk about habits or routines, we use the present simple tense. In the first sentence, «She always wears boots in winter,» the verb «wears» is in the present simple tense, indicating that it is a habit or routine for her to wear boots during the winter season.
When we talk about actions happening now, we use the present continuous tense. In the second sentence, «She is wearing a raincoat now,» the verb «is wearing» is in the present continuous tense, indicating that she is currently wearing a raincoat at the moment of speaking. This tense is used to describe actions that are happening right now, at the present moment.
