I want...

I want to buy these:

(in the black PU, not patent--oh dear.)

Thoughts?

Too slutty? Workable? Can I tone them down easily?

I don't know. That's why I'm asking. :\

I danced for five years, and was on a swim team for three. I have calves. Of course, because everything in my life has to be so difficult, natch, the circumference of my said calves are 15.75". I missed the boat by 3/4 of an inch! An inch, damnit! Therefore buying boots, though I adore them, is usually tragic. Wide calf boots are too big, and normal ones, too small.

Blargh.
