BOOT IT UP WITH THESE STRETCHY STYLES

I love Fall. It means that boot season is here. And boot season means I no longer have to look at people's gnarly, poorly-kept toes peaking out of sandals. Seriously. Get a sander and grind down those hooves, will yah?

Actually I just love boots in general - covering people's toes are just a bonus. There's something sexy and sophisticated anabout boots. That's why I sometimes spoon with them at night.

My favorite boots are the super sleek tall ones, that you can wear with skirts, dresses, or outside your favorite pair of jeans. But the problem is - most of these knee-high wonders are made for women who have calves the size of Popsicle sticks. And let's face it - most of us don't fit into this category.

The key is finding stretchy-boots that can fit a variety of calves without having to lather them with butter before sliding them on. Here's three that I found that fit the bill - and the budget. Use coupon code BTS08 and get 15 percent off the regular price on shoes.com - an even greater deal!

Also, if you want a wider selection of wide-calf boots, many sites allow you to search for them specifically now. Check out these searches on shoes.com or Zappos to find the stretchy-style that suits you.
