I like.

Don't get me wrong - I most often shop at thrift stores.

What I really want is to make stuff.

Very pretty.

When I think of "boots for wearing", I'm thinking winter in Park City. Timberland. Lol. A pair of shoes like this would be done in, in one walk from my car to the door of the office.

Lol. Ideally, they are for crisp fall days. At least in my imagination...

just me wrote:Okay. Lemme know what you think and feel free to post links. I have a thing for boots. I need a cowboy boot, knee high black dressy boots and brown riding boots. I do not like spikey high heel boots. Must be leather. Oh, and I have a rather narrow calf so side zippers work best if I have to have it taken in.

just me,
I also have a "thing" for boots (luckily so does my husband and doesn't mind at all how many pairs I continue to buy....ha!)

I know you said basic colors, but can't red be a basic? These are my favorite cowboy boots that I own:

I also love boots with buckles:

But, not too many:

(Plus these heels would be awful to walk around in!)

Nice!

These boots have the perfect heel (for me at least)....I own them in both black and brown and have almost worn the soles off both pairs!

Time to go shopping for more.... :smile:
