Fall 2013 Fashion Trends: Over-the-knee boots

One of the biggest trends in footwear this season are over-the-knee boots.  I love this trend, and it is surprisingly more versatile than you might initially think.

Over-the-knee boots can completely elevate a casual jeans and t-shirt outfit.  They can be worn to work with a dress or skirt that skims over the top of the boot.  With brocade, chiffon, or velvet, they are a stylish way to stay warm while still looking festive this winter.

I am on the hunt for a pair that works for me.  Buying boots is one of the great footwear challenges I have encountered being so petite.  The shaft of boots never hits in the correct spot, making it difficult to find boots that work.  Also, boots tend to simply too long for my legs.

If and when I find some boots that work for me, I'll be sure to share the info. with you all.  In the meantime, here are some possibilities:
