I have to say reading reviews from all over different sites, I was skeptical about these boots. Some said the material was cheap, or some said that it didn't look good in general for some despite the majority of good reviews. I am extremely picky and very careful so I needed to be sure before I decided to order these. I took the chance and am I glad! I have been looking for over the knee boots for a while and because I'm especially short (5'1), it is very hard. But these are very cute. I have to say that for a short girl, I do not have especially short legs, they are proportioned if that helps to make the decision. Because I have read reviews warning short girls not to buy these in case. So for me, these boots worked fine. Even so, some outfits I cannot pull off in these boots but come on, what shoes really go with every outfit? You need variation.
