I have two other pair of Frye boots, and they are the best boots ever.  I had my eye on these boots for awhile, and when they went on sale, I bought them.  They are beautiful, but that is exactly why I returned them.  I am not a girly girl, and I would destroy these boots.  I own a pair of the tall Engineers and the Jenna inside zip.  They are both classic boots with soft leather, and the more I wear them, the more character they get.  Unfortunately with the Felicity, these will not improve with age or wear.
I wish I could have kept them, and if you aren't rough on boots, you will love these.  I only tried them on, but they are comfortable and beautiful.
