These boots are the PERFECT accessory for any outfit. They dress up beautifully and dress down as well. The thread detail on the side is gorgeous but somewhat hard to see in the pictures - check out the very last photo for the maroon and white threading in the best light. These were not worn often. I fell in love with the boots but they didn't have my size, so I sized down mistakenly. I want to find them a good home! You will love them.
