Steven by Steve Madden -Harness- Riding Boot

When fall is in, two-tone is in, and that’s certainly true of this functional, yet stylish riding boot by Steve Madden. I can just see the ads now – beautiful girl striding across the windswept field in cowboy-chic skinny jeans, leather jacket, and peasant blouse. To tell the truth, this boot truly makes anyone’s legs look longer, but the rounded toe isn’t something you’d want to wear out to the club. If you’re someone who doesn’t like a lot of heel, this boot’s for you – with a one and a half-inch heel, it gives you enough height to be stylish, but you’re not going to break your neck on those slippery leaf-covered streets. As well, everyone needs a pair of comfortable shoes; why not let these boots be yours?

The shaft height is fifteen inches with a fourteen-inch calf circumference. The upper and sole are made of leather, and they’d better be to keep up with this boot’s style. Pair it with some skinny jeans, riding breeches, kicky skirt or anything casual and comfortable – this boot is equally at home on an urban city street as it is on the dirt paths of the farm. Don’t like the two-tone brown? It comes in a rich all-in-one black, too (which I personally like better). The boots also come with a side zipper so that you can get up and get going without having to tug the boot on and off (or worse, use those boot jacks!).

Steve Madden’s done it again! Looking for boots that won’t kill your feet and will stand up to the weather? Yee-haw! Harness your inner farm girl and pick up a pair of these boots – only $229.95 (and you really can’t beat affordable leather) at Nordstrom.com.

Want a cheaper version of ranch-chic? We found these beauties by Gabriella Rocha, called Noelle, for $159.99 at Zappos.com. They’ve got an asymmetrical collar and silver side buckle to change it up just enough to get noticed.

Or try a different take on the style with Me Too Women Barton Boot at Endless.com. Although it’s a bit more simplistic style-wise, this boot has a shinier exterior and a slightly pointier toe to add a little style to your casual look. The boots are weatherproofed, too, so don’t be afraid to actually take them for a ride if that’s your weekend hobby!
