Nancy, that's exactly why I haven't yet pulled the trigger. I am having trouble imagining outfits. I have this idea that they would be great for bookending my hair (or yours, of course...even more so!) but then, as someone who does not generally wear browns, tans, or beiges, I come up blank. What would I wear them with? What, in my current or foreseeable fall/winter wardrobe, would be low-contrast enough? Answer: Nothing. MAYBE my grey skirt and some grey or nude fishnet or low contrast nude patterned tights. Maybe I could wear with skinnies (though that would be high contrast.) And there I am stuck.
The celebs wear the real Isabel Marant booties with everything, of course. High contrast, whatever. But they are young and very slender. http://blog.dianiboutique.com/.....nt-booties
As for me, I just can't get my head around wearing booties with summery outfits. Perhaps that is yet another style hurdle I will cross when the season comes round....but given my climate, I sort of doubt it. If it is warm enough to wear bare legs here, it is TOO warm to think about boots, for crying out loud!
Sveta, thank you for the warning. I have not gone so far as to make any inquiries yet. One pair of boots I liked is no longer available. Maybe this is the way to save money...
