I happen to have very slender calves, actually bordering on chicken legs. I have a hard time finding knee high boots that don't make my legs look even skinnier. This knee high and thigh high sock thing is starting to sound like a pretty good alternative to knee high boots. I just hope they don't make me look like I rode in on an ostrich!

My wife is the oppisite, I bought her some tall boots for Christmas, and she can't even zip them up. Sorry for the Hi Jack.

Well I can't comment on this because I never noticed your legs, since you were there with your husband, and it would just be wrong to look. Especially if you were wearing a black mini-skirt. But I'm just guessing because I never looked.....

Well, let's see here. Unless those pictuers posted by Beuth et al purporting to be of you were doctored or mislabeled, then "skinny thighs" will not be a problem for you to worry yourself about.
Wear whatever you like, dear, and everyone will appreciate the effect. Trust me. Everyone will appreciate the effect. (Well, maybe the lassies won't appreciate it quite as much as the lads.)
Now, wasn't the gentlemanly?

Skinny calves. All the boots I try on stick out away from my calves because they're so slender.

Skinny legs? They're perfect! I'm really liking the knee-hi idea!
