I kind of wanted some really sexy looking boots on my character, but I have yet to find any real high heeled boots. :(

I guess your best best would be the 2B boots from the Copied Factory raid.
2B's boots or the Ishgardian Thighboots from the Gold Saucer are the only ones I can think of that even have heels, or if you don't mind a more....armored look, there's the Bonewicca fending/aiming/healing thighboots
There are quite a lot of thigh high boots, and quite a lot of high heeled boots. Some are even thigh high boots with high heels.
But stiletto heels? I think the only set to qualify would be the No. 2 Type B Boots. You can get them by completing the Copied Factory raid and rolling on/winning one of the coffers given at the end. Three coffers will always drop and there's a good chance most people already have them, so it shouldn't take too many runs to get. That said, it's a level 80 Raid and can only be unlocked after completing the 5.0 Quest "Shadowbringers".
The reason you won't get huge stilettos is because of how much they change the character height. That's the reason we have sandals instead of being barefoot, so the character height doesn't change
No 2 Type B boots are stiletto's. Perhaps a little shorter than you might want but still very nice boots for sure.
Not many good ones. 2B ones are pretty good. But honestly you have little chance of getting many good high heel boots, as the higher the heel, the shorter your calf is. If you don't believe me, find someone wearing the Edda boots from the Mog Station. They're horrendous. They lose you like a third of your calf so you can have heels. Makes tall races look like they have little midget calves. Once I saw it, I couldn't un-see it, and Ive never worn them since. Its very unfortunate, I like the rest of the outfit. But for now if it isnt 2B, it isnt for me. Maybe some day we'll get more good ones. ^^
Thing I don't like about 2B boots is your morphed legs, giant foot size, and dirt texture. Wish we had more good thigh high alternatives.

Yeah the foot shape really ain't great.... They look even worse when the foot is flexed at any remote angle as well.

It'd be nice if we could eventually get a proper thigh high stiletto that didn't make me question if the designers had ever actually seen a real foot before.
I assume the feet (and butt) look the way they do because that is the art style of the Nier characters. It'd be like if they added Kingdom Hearts footwear and suddenly we had giant mickey mouse feet. Just the gear staying true to the style of the game it came from, for better or worse.
Oh God yeah.. And that shot really shows that nasty dirt texture.
Viera do have pretty nice thigh high stiletto boots, but obviously locked to the race, and it has some other features that don't make it look good with a lot of glams, at least anytime I've tried making one using them whenever I am a viera. I'd like some fairly neutral thigh highs that dye well, and don't have the glaring issues 2b's does. The only other neutral thigh high boots I can think of off the top of my head are the ishgardian thighboots, I use it in a fair few of my glams. However, those just have a low heel.
For tanks there are also the Bonewicca Protector's Sabatons.
A couple alternatives from the mogstation are Far Eastern Maiden's Boots, and Eastern Socialite's Boots. Also, deepshadow caster/healer boots These are not thigh highs though.
Well it took a totally different team to bring us such high heels lol so maybe in about 3yrs.
Many good suggestions, but none of them seems to be tradeable. Either you need to do a raid/dungeon, or you need to win at the Gold Saucer. :(
That's... nightmare fuel, that second pic. Though from memory, I think they might be the only stiletto thigh highs in the game. (small edit: and the more I look at them, the more the heel shape actually bugs me.)
My go-to are the Ishgardian thigh boots, from the Gold Saucer. I may even overuse them. There's also the lvl 58 crafter boots you get from moogles (I forget the name), you can wear them on all jobs lvl 58 and above, but like the Ishgardian boots, they're not actually stilettos.
Oh, my. How could I have missed these? So pretty. Am buying now, like the shoe-obsessed woman I am. :o:D
The best heels are of course, on the Mogstation and always part of a set that usually only has a couple of truly versatile pieces in it. Since the 2B boots are so popular despite their issues, you would think that the developers and fashion style designers of the game would take note. All of the Copied Factory gear (for females anyway) is popular. The casting dress is one of the best fashions in the game, as is the maiming, striking & scouting sets. I love the maiming headband and the caster/healer hat (looks like a pillbox style). All of the fashions have been nice. Let the team that created the NeoIshgardian dresses loose to make some heels. Those are also some amazing dresses. But in the actual game itself, heels are sorely lacking.
I was really irritated that the healer top from the Copied Factory is the exact same as the tank top. I thought it was the caster design, which frankly would have made more sense. The shoes, while not high like the 2B heels, don't morph as badly as the 2B heels.
