These boots have an 18th century look with a 20th century zing! I bought the blue and the color is kind of dimensional. You can wear them with dark navy or a lighter blue.  They look great with jeans, skirts, dresses or dress pants.  The toes are not totally exposed.  It's a good height heel and platform to walk in. They are high but they are comfortable if you are used to it. Very true to size. All in all it's a great boot.  I was born in heels and these are part of my collection now.
