Petite Friendly Fall Boots Under $50

Finding petite friendly boots has always been a struggle for me when fall comes around. Most of the super popular boots every year from Nordstrom, for example, come up to high and hit my leg in an awkard, unflattering place. I think I ordered and returned 2-3 pairs of boots last year trying to find a nice flattering pair.

I finally found that I have the BEST luck with boots from Target! Most of their taller boots have around a 15 inch shaft which is perfect for my short legs. For reference, I’m 5’1 and have a nice (yet short 🙂 ) balance to my legs and torso and wear my normal size 6 in Target shoes. Target came out with a ton of new boots this season and I’ve tested them out and wanted to share my favorites along with some outfit inspiration for y’all!

***All of the boots hit right below my knee**

Universal Thread Tessa Heeled Scrunch Boots

Size: 6

Color: Cognac

Shaft Height: Approximately 15 inches

Heel Height: 3 inch block heel

Price: $39.99
