    Black will make your legs look slimmer, I don't think Taupe will, though I could be wrong.

    As for being suitable for 5"3 - I don't know tbh, as the boots are over the knee, they could make you/your legs look shorter than they are.

    They are lovely boots, have you got a link to them on the website you saw them please? Thanks.

    I like the taupe colour the best but black might be easier to match with things.
    I don't think they will make your legs look shorter if you wear similar colour tights/trousers underneath the boots. eg. black skinny jeans with the black boots, or taupe tights with the taupe ones.

    If however you are wearing blue jeans, they might possibly make your legs look shorter, as it will be splitting your leg into very different 'blocks' of color, instead of a long streamlined look. I think only very tall people can pull that off the best, although I don't always follow this rule myself and I am only just about 5 foot.! :)

    Thanks,I found in internet answer to my question,so you was right,they not for me....

    1. Make sure the knee length boots have a heel. Heels help make your legs look longer.
    2. The hem of the skirt should be near the tops of your boots when you are standing.
    3. Wear tights, stockings or pantyhose that is the same color as your boots.

    If done right, knee length boots with a dress can look very pretty!
