Story of the Sparrow’s life. Ugh!

If you have a “wider calf” as in 14” or above, shopping for cute knee length boots can be a search filled with angst and agitation. While the invention of the stretch boot was pretty close to that of sliced bread, the styles have remained the same from season to season, offereing very little variety for fashion savvy shoppers like……well like me!!! I mean, how many pointy toe, round toe, low, medium, high heeled boots can a girl own? I won’t answer that; but to keep from possibly going down that road again, I set out on a quest to overcome the knee boot obstacle once and for all, and landed on some fabulous finds!

Here’s a bird’s eye view of some serious fly finds!

Grey, Platform Slouch Boots by Pour La Victoire

Brown Suede with Gold Embellishments by FitZwell

Black Patent Leather with Buckles by Promiscuous

For more styles, check out Zappos, 6pm, or Nordstrom and search via the ‘wide calf’ option. It’s about time designers start catering to the big legged girl!
