the boot dilemma…

…does exist for some…what could that dilemma be? you might be thinking…boots are still a big trend for fall…and there are SO many choices…from ankle booties…to over the knee…but the dilemma comes for some women in the riding boot…

you see that perfect pair of riding boots…you try them on…zip zip…zip up that zipper…and it stops mid-way…the zipper won’t get past the calf…what is a girl to do? i have this same issue…always have…and i have found the best selection at zappos.com – in fact…you do a search by wide calf – and the lovely assortment of choices that comes up is actually rather encouraging…this is how i found 2 pairs of riding boots last year…the best thing…is that they zip zip zip all the way up…even over my jeans…score!

the other dilemma that some women have…is that the boots are too big around the calf…and for this i say…second skin boots…these stretch leather boots (sometimes in a stretch fabric) are a great solution for those that have a hard time finding a boot that fits snug…the second skin boot can provide a closer fit while giving a streamlined clean silhouette…and sometimes…depending on the cut…these second skin boots work for those with larger calves…because they stretch to fit around the calf…

do you have a boot dilemma?  do you need to look for wider calf boots or smaller?  do you have a brand that works for you?  please share your findings!
