So. I bought some gorgeous mid-calf boots last week, and today I had a few free minutes and a web browser in front of me, so I looked up tips on good outfits to wear with the gorgeous boots. The dozen tips I encountered on one website were just surreal. Here's why: the website said that mid-calf or ankle-length boots will make one's ankles look chunky, so nearly all of the tips were designed to combat this. This is just so weird to me! The tips that weren't specifically about looking thinner were about keeping legs looking long.
When did people decide that looking thin and tall was the only ideal? It's odd because some people will always look short and stout, no matter how slim they manage to make their ankles look. By the same token, some people will always look tall and thin, even if they (gasp!) wind up wearing chunky socks and ankle boots at the same time.
Weird.
