This is my sad tale of boot love gone wrong. My love affair with the Michael Kors Kincade (Buy Direct) was brief, but quite passionate. Everything about this slouchy suede pair of boots was perfect: reasonable price ($202), cute hardware, made for skinny jeans. I had to own them immediately, so I had the boots overnighted and tried them right away. The only flaw? A sky-scraping (for me, anyway) 4 1/2 inch skinny heel which puts me somewhere around the 6 foot mark. For days, I’d try them on, admire them in the mirror and then wobble down the hall. My husband, who is not amused at my antics in high heels, wondered whether it was possible to put training wheels on them. The final verdict? These boots, although perfect, were just too tall for a klutz like me. So I sorrowfully boxed them back up to return. Surely I’m not the only girl out there who has had her heart broken by a pair of stilettos. How high is too high for you? (Photo Credit: Zappos.com)
