It does not matter if you have never been astride a horse in your life and have no intention of ever doing so either. The same holds true if you have never ridden or been a passenger on a motorcycle or a scooter and if you are deathly afraid of them. Knee high boots are still an essential item in every fashionable woman's wardrobe.
Riding boots are not just for riding and despite the name you do not have to love horses or motorcycles or ride them regularly to own a great pair of stylish riding style boots. Most women who wear this style of boots around town do it as a fashion statement and have no intention of ever riding anything with four legs or with two wheels.
As any woman who likes to dress fashionably and look stylish will tell you, shoes are a very important part of the wardrobe. They are one of the most important accessories if not the most important one. You can even go so far as to say that great shoes are an essential building block of the wardrobe of any woman whether she is a painfully trendy fashion victim who spends a lot of time and effort and even money in always keeping up with all that is hot and all that is cool in the world of fashion or just someone who likes dressing well and who does not follow the fashion industry with any great interest at all.
Shoes styles come and go and most women have a huge collection of shoes to rotate as the styles come back into fashion again as they always do sooner or later. But just like there are quintessentially stylish pieces of clothing that are always fashionable and always in style like the little black dress. There are some pieces of footwear that will always be cool to wear and are an essential to have in your wardrobe.
Pieces like a pair of black stilettos and a pair of tall black boots that go all the way to the knee. These shoes also known as riding boots can be paired with a number of different clothing ensembles and then teamed with accessories to achieve a number off different looks. Everything from a gothic to a punk style and every look from a rocker chick, a biker girl and even a cow girl are possible with a great pair of this style of boots.
