Honestly, I wouldn't advise against it. There's really no harm that can be done wearing bell boots. It never hurts to be safe either.! Not to mention that there are a million colors, shapes, and sizes of bell boots to choose from. That way, you can either get a refined look, or a funky fun look, or whatever look you want. Grays are especially fun to shop for, because they look good in almost any color.
I love shopping for tack... That's what I do when I get enough money from working.[:
Good luck and have fun.!
