I am looking at knee high boots, and can only find them online. What the heck do they measure the shaft height from? The ground? Some part of the boot? And the same boots are listed as having a different shaft height on different websites...

If I am short with short legs am I going to have a hard time finding boots?

I kind of like these right now:

Are they too rugged for skirts?

Oh - I don't want to go over my knee.

And how many inches need to show between skirt hem and top of boot in order to not look goofy?


arrgghhh!!!
