The struggle is real! I go thru boot searches every year and it is so difficult! I am 5 feet, 103 pounds, and I have skinny calves and ankles...A 14 boot shaft works great for me, and the only pair I love that I have owned forever was from Aldo! Every year I cant seem to find a good replacement. They were 13.75 shaft, with 13.50 circumference. :)

The struggle is real for sure. I didn't even imagine to be able to own pair of over the knee high boots or knee high boots before. I managed to find with bigger budget (over 130e) and days of research pair for this autumn. My struggle is that im short (165cm), plus size and have super wide calves (48cm). 😅 I still could find 100 % leather pair from a company from Germany. It was like made for my calves with exact measurement! The excitement when i tried them on first time and feeling of them fitting... ☺

I like the boots a LOT

I love pointed shoes.been long years i didnt wear long boots bec i dont feel comfortable its too long for my legs.i’ll follow your idea i might get luck finding a comfortable one for me.

I’m 5’1” so this is very good advice. Thank you 😊.

You are spot on. I am not petite but my legs are short compared to my torso. Lug soles and mid length boots are the worse. Refined, slim fitting, hard ware free knee-high or ankle boots are the only boots I can wear. I also require a small heel as flat styles do me no favors. For the toe shape, I go for almond or, oddly enough, a slim elongated square toe. I really don't look good in pointed toe boots/or shoes and I don't know why. Any theories ?

I have to go with the almond shaped toe, pointed toe just looks weird on my legs so I don't wear them. But almond shape is close to pointy and looks fab

amazing thanks!

This is a great video! I have narrow size 6 feet and ankles, a low wider calf muscle that's around 14.5" around, and my calf length is only 14" long. Plus, I live in Canada. I've had decent success with some styles of Blondo winter boots that come in 13" shaft height. But I can't buy most knee length boots, full stop.

I measured the circumference of my calf recently, to see is a pair of boots online would fit, and the website said around a 15 inch circumference. My leg measured a little over 11 inches, and I still haven’t found a good boots for thinner calves. any suggestions? I have long legs but a shorter torso so I don’t even know if I’m considered petite. I love your channel by the way, very funny, well done, with great taste!

The struggle is real !

I’ve had looked everywhere for boots where the shaft is 14 inches or shorter and the calf width at least 16 or 17 inches. I found some that I can get zipped but they hit me in the back of the knee where I bend my leg. They are really 1 inch too tall. They are not real leather. I wonder if I could have them cut down?

Is the same for square toe boot. If you choose one that’s thinner in the toe it will work as well as the slimmer rounded toe boot. I got the Women's Dasha Block-Heel Booties, Created for Macy's and they look amazing.

I am 5.2 and i tried pointed toe shoes to elongate my legs, but the effect on me is absolutely terrible: my feet are a 39 EUR size (8.5 US), if i wear pointy toes they make my feet look sooooo long, they are totally wrong for me. So no, unfortunately these kind of shoes are not a good advice for EVERY petite person 😅

Is it ok if the boots are bit wide than your shaft? I have thin legs and I just bought a pair of suede boots go right under my knees and from the front they look great but from the side you can see a small gap. I wish they were a bit tighter.

@PetiteDressing

If they are not too “slouchy” looking, you might be ok. I have the same “issue” sometimes cuz my legs are thin.

takeaway: measure ankle length for boots(bottom of foot to under knee), slender and lean

I have wide calves and skinny ankles so it's really hard finding boots that cover my calf but not bunch up. I'm also 5'4" so I'm really having problems finding a boot that actually fits me. I found boots on shein size 41 that have an elastic shaft top but the foot size was a bit small. Now I have to order another pair in a bigger foot size. I'm waiting for my winter boots from Amazon size 9 that zipper up and the shaft is 16 inches and the calf is 16.5 inches these boots will be worn with dresses and skirts only. Usually I'm a size 9 but shein shoe sizes are usually 2 sizes smaller than sizes here in Canada.

What if I have skinny legs?

Love how you wear boots without socks Enjoying leather your bare feet is blessed

I hate being small it seems so much easier being tall

Get those pant garters that make your pants into stirrup pants.

I cannot wear a pointed toe due to my feet issues.

Ladies buy and wear boots only of they feel good on your bare feet. Many of you wear no socks with boots

Booots belek. Mau men

Pointed toes or slender ,rounded toes deform women’s feet and cause bunions and all manner of foot problems. Heels and deforming your feet are not worth trying to LOOK taller. I am 5’3” and have very short legs. I wear only ‘barefoot’ footwear that are completely flat, with no heel at all ( zero drop), a thin flexible sole and a wide toe box that do not deform/ squish my toes together but let them spread out they way they are naturally supposed to. I think footwear that does not deform our feet or cause our entire body ( hips back, neck) to be out of healthy alignment from wearing heels….THAT IS WHAT LOOKS STYLISH, SMART AND SEXY. Taking care of my body and health and NOT literally deforming my body because some ( usually male) CEO of fast fashion brands or ridiculous high fashion designers are supposedly saying this is what we are SUPPOSED to try to look like. Guess what I’m 5’3” and that is short! I have short legs! AND I AM BEAUTIFUL! SHORT LEGS AND ALL! All of this ‘trying to look taller’, “trying to elongate the leg, trying to trick the eye” it’s fine to apply it to some degree but not at the expense of the health of my body and healthy movement and function of my body. I only hope that some day you too can accept the height and proportions of your body and consider them beautiful just as they are without damaging/ deforming your body. A good resource for the importance of ‘ barefoot’ footwear is the book ‘Whole Body Barefoot’ by Katy Bowman. Please consider reading this.

Stop complaining for being Short Asian and Bowlegged. Love yourself and stop trying to be someone else, you are who you are. Short.

Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️ *What is the Gospel?* The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Romans 10:9 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. JESUS CHRIST can come anytime! Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS
