Cowboy Boots!

There was a fantastic sale at Amazon.com and I may have bought some amazing boots! These boots are handmade by Old Gringo in Mexico. They are the most beautiful boots I have ever owned. Ever.

In the photo from left to right, the boots on the far left are called "Sozey" and are rust coloured with genuine Swarovski crystals on them. They have a snipped pointed toe and a medium heel. They're totally hot!

The middle pair of booties is shorter with an angled cuff that comes to a point on the outstep of the boot. The cuff is beautifully embroidered with blue and silver thread and there's a zipper in the instep for easy on and off. The heel is also medium height on these boots and the have the exact same toe as the rust Sozey boots. These boots are called "Minisora" and are grey in colour even though it would be easy to mistake them for black.

The third pair of boots, on the right side are called "Tabetha" and are probably my favourite of the three. They have a different toe than the other two pair. The toe is called a southern toe and it's more squared and less pointy than the others. These boots have some beautiful embroidery and metal studding along with a bit of cutwork in the overlay. The boots are aqua in colour with a brass coloured (brown) overlay that is also embroidered and has some cutwork detailing that is lovely. These boots also have embroidery at the top near the side pulls making them very ornate. The heel is lower on these boots and the fit of the boot is a little less snug overall. I love the way the two-tones of leathers go so beautifully together. These boots rock!
