So a few weeks ago I realized that I had been in the state of Texas for over a year and I had yet to find some boots. I will admit that I thought I was too cool for boots when I was in school at A&M, turns out I was wrong. It took me a while to decide what I wanted, actually it took me a while to figure out what I could afford. I would have loved a pair of ostrich boots, but those are like 700 a pair. That is insane.
My friend Sarah and I went one Sunday after church to see if we could find something, we went to Pink's Western Wear (website). I didn't really know much about them but they were close to my house so I figured why not. I definitely scored big on that one. The guy that was helping us was amazing. He showed me how to determine if the shoes fit right or if they were too big or small. I will admit that I was doing it all wrong in the beginning so I am glad that he was there so that I didn't buy the wrong boots.
I will admit that I am in love with these boots and I try to wear them as often as possible! I opted for taller boots that look good either over my jeans or under them. I have worn these with a dress and they looked good then too. I paid about $175 for these which is expensive for shoes but they should last about 10 years since they are cow leather. I mentioned my desire for ostrich boots and the guy told me that they weren't worth the money since they wear out quicker since bird hide isn't that good. Fun fact.
I am looking forward to wearing these all over the world and showing that I am officially proud to be a Texan!
