Living in a city doesn't always allow for wearing the high-heeled boots I often admire. However, flat boots are now at least comparable in terms of looks. I have owned a pair of cognac Steve Madden riding boots for two years that have provided me the ability to walk the streets of Chicago with ease. With so many types of flat boots out there I figured I'd share some cute ones I've seen (most around $150). Note: most of my selections are for those like me that need a little extra calf room so you can actually tuck in jeans without permanent lines on your legs.

2. http://piperlime.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=51759&vid=1&pid=719618&scid=719618002 (these are almost identical to the ones I have and they have lasted two years)

6. http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=402971&CategoryID=25439 (I included these specifically for my tall friends because sometimes with longer legs, the regular tall version looks short on the calf. Also, over the knee boots look awesome if you have long legs)
