Boots

When we went to the concert Friday, we arrived ahead of time; there were some things going on outside Sprint Center that we figured might be of interest, and I was provided with some excellent people-watching opportunities.  Now I'll admit I don't get out much, and I'm as far from being a fashion diva as one can get.  But I noticed something I consider a travesty:  Women wearing cowboy boots with dresses, skirts, and shorts.  

Seriously, doesn't something seem to be wrong with this picture?  Notice the girl in the yellow top looking at me, wondering, "Why is the old lady in jeans and a T-shirt taking our picture?" 

Same boots, different angle.  Come on, people, cowboy boots are made to slip easily into the stirrups of a saddle.  Yes, there are dress boots you can wear when you go out to dance.  But with a dress?  When did this crazy trend start?

Ugh.  

Now, what sort of socks do you wear inside those boots?  Tall ones?  Short ones?  Panty hose?  


I imagine all my readers are thinking I'm hopelessly out of touch; I know I am not one to comment on fashion trends, but this just seems so WRONG!
