don't fail me now.

ugh...just when i thought these boots were perfectly dinged, scuffed, and worn-in. i shrieked this morning when i put them on and thought my right foot touched ground. the 11" shaft height is proportionate to my height, and the smallish 13" circumference is just wide enough for tucked in jeans but slim enough where my legs aren't swimming. this alone makes finding boots an impossible task. the color is close to my skin tone helping to elongate when worn with shorter hem lines. add to that the chunky, lower heel, which makes them very wearable, and you've got my perfect boot. so until another one comes along, these will have to last.

Cute boots! You're right, the perfect pair are almost impossible to find, so when you find them, you've got to hang on to them!

Urgh I'm exactly the same - I spend so long searching for the perfect boots than when I occasionally find them, I get so attached and can't bear it when they start to wear out and literally wear them to death.

Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog too!

Oh I had to find a perfect replacement boot. I always regret not buying two pairs when one of my faves are on its way out. Fingers crossed you find a great replacement before the soles of these ones peel off.

oh I hate it when you get such a perfect pair of boots and they start to die! I had a pair with a wedge heel which were the only absolutely comfortable boots with a heel I've ever had and even though I re-heeled them, put in insoles and everything they still eventually just collapsed and I still havnt found a worthy replacement for them!
