They should be called Bad-Ass boots if you ask me. Thinking that they are the perfect answer to all summer footwear. Somehow boots seem so much better this season with cut-offs or a pretty summer dress no? Bad tan lines - hell ya. (Alternate with K.Jacques sandals pls.) Also love the fact that these don't have a towering heal. I'm a little more into comfort these days... trying the air at a different altitude if you must. What about you?
