Cowboy Boots: A Girl Can Dream

No cowgirl gets very far without a good pair of boots.

Yesterday my parents and I made the trip down to Great Falls, Montana (a 3 hour drive) to do some shopping with my sister Jocelyn and her boyfriend Travis. For my dad and Travis, the trip entailed looking in old western antique and tack shops. For mom, Jocy, and I, it was a full day of shopping at the mall and Big R. I went with the mission to find new cowboy boots, and thankfully I found just what I was looking for at Big R in the Ariat Quickdraw boots.

I was desperately in need of a new pair, as you can see.

New boots!

Old boots- getting a little worn out

 I decided I'd outgrown the round toe and went for a square toe, as well as a higher shaft for a change. So far they're super comfortable and I'm pretty pleased with myself for the purchase! These boots will be great for everyday uses or riding. But I can't help but have a wishlist for the one day when I become a rich and famous ag tycoon. Here are my "someday" boots:

 These are both M.L. Leddy's boots. My mom told me about them after seeing them on display in Fort Worth, Texas. I'm still drooling. Unfortunately, I don't have $900 kicking around to finance these babies.

 Gorgeous boots from Old Gringo. I love how many boots now have embellishments on the toe- that's the part everyone sees anyways! The pair on the right may be my favorite. These two pairs are between $500-600.

These Dan Post boots are only $200! I love the turquoise.

Tony Lama boots for $570. Gorgeous detailing.

 One day, I will have enough boots like these for every day of the year. But, until then, I'll pinch pennies and continue to stare at these in awe. Hope you enjoy these as much as I do. Feel free to share some of your favorite wish list boots!
