1
Prepare to try on a lot of boots. If you're serious about finding a comfortable pair that compliments your wardrobe and makes you look great, you might want to go to several stores before making your final pick.
-
2
Wear the socks or stockings you normally use when trying on boots. The thickness of your hosiery may seem like a small detail, but it can greatly effect fit.

Give your toes some wiggle room. Any part of your foot that feels cramped in the store will be aching after you've had the boots on for an hour or so.

Think about how you plan to wear your women's fashion boots. If you would just like a pair for holiday parties and hot dates, then it is probably fine to sacrifice some comfort for style. If you plan on wearing them on a daily basis, then the boots had better be made for walking.

5
Inspect the quality of the boots. Supple leather, solid soles and a firmly attached heal may cost a little more, but be worth the price. Check to see that the lining of the boot is firmly attached and will not easily tear.

6
Model the boots with the outfits you would like to pair them with. Seeing the full effect will save you the uncertainty of guessing.

Tips & Warnings
Women with thick calves tend to look best in knee length boots.
Women with skinny legs are flattered by a slim heel.
The wider and lower the heel, the better the boot is for walking.
Don't buy a pair of boots thinking that the leather will expand to better accommodate your foot. A good fitting, quality pair of boots may feel better over time, but you should feel comfortable wearing them right out of the store.
