    My friends and I are doing the vampire theme this year....I get to be Anna Valerious from Van Helsing (yay!!) but I don't think I'm going to be able to swing those boots. I could do spats, but I'd REALLY rather have the boots.....at a reasonable price (as in, NOT $1,000!! Yikes!). But maybe $200 (preferably, less). Any suggestions? They don't have to be perfect, but NOT 4 inch heels, either!

    TIA!!

    Making them is probably your best/cheapest bet.

    This has a pretty decent explanation of how she put together her costume... I would think using low heeled riding boots (english riding boots, not western cowboy boots) or regular calf height boots you either already have or could find for cheap would be a good base.
