@shubharamani:
Are these OK ? (Clarks Wallabees). They're my type of shoe. I hear that they're insanely comfortable and they do have Women's. Let me know if you think they're hideous (or not).

Do the Wallabee, Desert, or Alden Indy!!! I think you would look best in some Wallabee's!
-
My priority would be Indy, Desert, Wallabee. If you have the funds, I think an upscale desert boot be it Alden or whoever would really be nice. But in your size that might be difficult. Not sure if it's worth the bother when you can get a Clark desert or wallabee off the rack for little money.

Wallabee wins ! Zappos does have a Clark Desert model for women in my size (6.5), but they're not boots :

And, Zappos does carry a nice Clark Desert Boot for women, but not in my size (6.5) ! They're sold out.

As for the Men's Desert boots – forget it. The smallest size available in those is a size 6 Mens, which is too big for me.
The Wallabee boots do come in my size (6.5), Women's, so I'm going for them !
Plus, I prefer the Wallabees because they're chunkier. Being a clogs person, I prefer chunky on my feet. I think LandoCal is right...Wallabees would suit me best.That said, Till...I'd love a pair of the Clark Deserts too. I'll keep an eye out for my size coming back in stock. Zappos is pretty good about that.
Thanks all for your helpful tips and suggestions !

Got my XS IHSH-08 and IHSH-17 shirts from Giles ! OH MY GOD ! I AM IN TOTAL FUCKING LOVE ! They fit me perfectly Giles. I mean, they're so flattering it's ridiculous ! I'm insanely happy about them. Looks like Men's XS was custom-made for Shubha, after all.
I just opened up the package and laid the shirts out on my futon (you'll recognize Giles's telltale aqua blue plastic packaging). I'll get fit pics in later on this week.
Check em out !

Shub's, Awesome pick ups! I can't begin to tell you how much you are going to enjoy the IHSH-08 16oz Super Black Western Shirt. It is right up your alley with the weight and stiffness. As far as the IHSH-17 Heavy Chambray Quilted Western Shirt, I am so jealous!!! Had to pass on the Chambray Series all together this year. The quilted ones look amazing. I'm sure these items would love to be posted in the "Recent Purchases" Thread…
-
LandoCal, I will post these on the "Recent Purchases" thread. Thanks for reminding me.
I can't tell which is my favorite of these two shirts. They're both so beautiful and perfect in their own way ! They're lifetime keepers – impossible to destroy or damage. I mean, you can put them in your Living Will...though in my family, nobody is small enough to receive them, when and if I croak !

Here I am, wearing an XS IHSH-08, Black Denim Western Shirt in XS, sent to me by Giles. I LOVE IT ! The picture is taken right in front of my favorite Oakland Cafe – "The Old Coffee Mill", on Grand Avenue/Elwood. Admit it...I look amazing in this shirt !

OK, OK, you look fucking amazing.

Yes, it's amazing! The fit looks perfect in the shoulders and chest but the sleeves look a little long. Have you tried cuffing them? It seems that many guys do this with Iron Heart (see for example Peterock).
This is the IH shirt I'm most upset about missing out on.
