Over the Knee Boots: Hooker or Haute?

When I heard over-the-knee boots were going to be a trend for Fall, I wasn't too surprised. What more could they do to sexify the knee-high's of last year? I just wondered who would really go for this trend. Sure, Charlize Theron can throw on 3 ft of leather gloriousness and look classy. But, can the mom at the mall pull it off, or me for that matter? I can't help cringing, thinking about the looks of disapproval I would get if I showed up somewhere in these bad boys.

Is that going to stop me?? I think not :)

You can find less extreme versions from Joie, Steve Madden & Guess. I'll be putting these on my Christmas list.

    Well, you have great legs so I think you can definitely pull these off. Just go with some that aren't so super high. Like just barely over the knee. Steve Madden has a lot of cute ones.
