I have an odd question- Do any of y'all wear your boots just on a daily, out to run errands, to the office, out to dinner kind of basis? I do when I have a nice pair that are super comfortable and nice looking, or when I have a brand new pair... it's all I can do to not wear new boots out of the store! (I'm that girl lol). I hardly see any girls around here in boots when they're not at the barn.
given we're in FL, so I'm in boat shoes or flip flops most all summer, but still, just out of curiosity, am I the only chick that wears boots sometimes to town just because I wanna wear my boots? :)

I'm cool and from South Dakota.  I have a closet full of about 10 - 15 pair of boots.  They get worn on a daily basis no matter where I'm going.

I'm an oddball in MI and wear mine all the time, except at work. My kids wear theirs too, lol. It may not be cool, but they feel better than slippers!

I wear boots every day. I don't own any other shoes. I keep one our two pairs for nice occasions like a wedding or something like that but all the other ones are fair game for daily use.

I wear my boots everywhere. I almost never wear shorts, even in the summer, and when I do, its only to workout in, so I always have my boots on and a pair of comfortable jeans. I live in Wisconsin, so it's a little different than living in Florida.

I wear my boots almost all the time. If I plan on walking far, I wear tennis shoes, or if I'm going out I'll either wear nice boots or dressy shoes. But to work, if it isn't snowing or I'm not wearing shorts, I wear boots.

I have LOTS of boots, and I wear them all the time! Wore a great pair of Twisted X on my wedding day even. I have a bit of a shoe fetish, but 99% of the time I'm wearing boots. Ariats for everyday and I have a couple of pairs of Corrals for "good". Unless its deadly slippery out or 95 degrees, then I put on my Nikes or flip flops.

I don't.  I won't even wear a nice pair to town, in the office on jeans day, etc.  I look like a Californian living in Texas and I am fine with that.  Shoot I am going to ride tonight in sweats and tennis shoes and I don't care!

I think I am a bit of a hybrid-there is a lot of country in me but I have some city in me too.  And boots are one of those things that I just don't do.  I went through a tiny phase early this year of riding in boots and wearing them a good amount around the horses but I am back to tennis shoes and flip flops again (yes, I know how dangerous that can be and I am sure after 32 years of wearing flip flops around my horses I am bound to get stepped on sooner or later-I recognize that).

What's even more funny is I asked my hubby to buy me a new pair of boots for Christmas.  Yes it is early but that is ok.  Anyways, they are sitting in the back of my closet.  I took a picture with them on when they first got here, took them right off and wrapped them back up and havent put them on since.  My California friends are begging me to wear them when I go out there in January.  I probably won't but I am considering it.  I actually have no idea what I am going to wear them for but I have them!!!

They are a fancy pair of Johnny Ringo's BTW.

Me too, except I can't wear mine to work.  I wish I could though, maybe then I wouldn't have taken the header out on the sidewalk on main street.

I wear boots about 95% of the time, I do have two nice pairs that I don't ride in but just go out and work in so I dont' smell like horse poop lol. They are too comfy not to wear them and I work in an ag based job so it's acceptable.

I LOVE Johnny Ringos!  Almost bought a pair but didn't, went with old trusty Luchesses instead :)
I already had a wedding dress so I bargained with my dad to buy my wedding boots!  LOL, it was a $7,500+ savings on the father of the bride situation so he didn't put up much of a fight!  I AM SO EXCITED for thier arrival!

Yep, I wear my boots ALL the time except when asleep lol. I am an Ag Teacher so I wear them to work on a daily basis also. If I happen to wear shorts at home in summer when I am working on the farm, I STILL wear my boots. Neadless to say I only get about 12 months out of a good pair. I think I will cry when my current Justin, George Straight waterproof boots die. They are the most comfortable pair of boots I have owned.

I also wore a pair of boots at my wedding. Everyone thought I was going to wear white jeans lol. I had a very pretty, sparkly white gown and my boots just topped it off. :-)

I've worn my boots to college, but it is a rare occasion. However, I REALLY want a new pair, but the pair I like are too expensive to let near horses or mud. IF I get this pair they will be for town and school only. My current pair only gets worn -outside of horse related activities- after I take time to oil and condition them.
Here is the pair that I want:
