Women’s Tall Dress Boots

Round Toe Tan Boots by Born “Yvette”

This boot style is somewhere between fashion and western. Women’s tall dress boots like the Born “Yvette” falls short of being an authentic cowboy version. Yet, there is a fashionably cute country element to this equestrian design. We really like the mocha tan color offered here. With it’s rounded toe and leather overlay on the vamp, this makes a sophisticated fashion statement. The heels are under 2 inches and the height is about 16″. They’ve used a stiff leather material in crafting this footwear. We rather like this feature. Others don’t care for it too much. Born is a great shoe manufacturer and we’re on their side with this.

The leg width is definitely for those who want a wider fitting calf. So if you have longer, athletic legs, you can pair these with dresses, pants or wrangler jeans. Born has created tall dressy boots in the “Yvette” that almost crosses over to a casual dress western boot. Either way, we like them.

Wide Calf Dress Boots for Women

Black Patent Boots by Type Z “Anna Maria”

These wide calf dress boots for women are a great example of practical footwear that is exciting at the same time. The Type Z “Anna Maria” is practical because of it’s 16 inch circumference large calves. They’re perfect for women who require extra big fitting boots. For ladies with thick, athletic legs there is no way they can comfortably wear a boot that rises above mid calf height. Even a pair that’s worn over the knee will not fit correctly without extra space around the calves.

So now we know this Type Z is functional. But they’re also fashionable too. The shinny black leather has a cute toe and heavy heel that fits the overall design. We should also note that the shoe or foot width is available in medium M and a wider W size too. If there’s too much room for your feet, try an insert to help correct any slipping that might occur. For hot looking footwear, we like these women’s dressy boots.
