I do also have trousers that I think will work well with these, if I don't run amuck of PPL's, &nbsp;and that is part of the appeal--I really would like&nbsp;&nbsp; dual-purpose-fitting booties.</p> <p>Ahoy, Firecracker! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-kr-booties--update-vs-missed-the-boat#post-1541214 Mon, 17 Aug 2015 21:54:58 +0000 Brooklyn 1541214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these a lot. I am similarly timid about wearing booties with skirts and bare legs, but these look&nbsp;great (good colour, good fit around the ankles, nice texture). I vote keep.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-kr-booties--update-vs-missed-the-boat#post-1541204 Mon, 17 Aug 2015 21:45:04 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1541204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the booties on you, unfrumped. They look equally good with bare legs and tights. I think you've found a pair that will work for you! Welcome aboard. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-kr-booties--update-vs-missed-the-boat#post-1541198 Mon, 17 Aug 2015 21:38:37 +0000 Angie 1541198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the booties - especially in #1 and #2. Nice fit and colour. No need to bookend. Great with trousers too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-kr-booties--update-vs-missed-the-boat#post-1541188 Mon, 17 Aug 2015 21:08:02 +0000 unfrumped 1541188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear Angie and all:</p> <p>I would appreciate input on whether these tan/gold booties would be "modern" &nbsp;or whether I've missed the boat on this look and should move on. Or should find other booties.</p> <p>I wasn't <u>lookin</u>g for these, but when shopping for wedding shoes in June, saw these Crown&nbsp; booties and thought the bootie shaft looked less flower-potty, which is something that has kept me from more bootie-skirt looks, so tried them. Also, I am not a pointy-toe person due to fussy feet issues, but these were comfortable- wide enough through toe, and maybe the suede helps. The heel height is at the upper limit&nbsp;for &nbsp;me, but chunky rubberized, and okay for some days.<br />Next, the color doesn't bookend, but because it's lighter, it's what allowed&nbsp; my timid self to consider nude leg + bootie look. Plus the color works well with summer-autumn palette. This brand had an updated style in a cool taupey brown, but the style change was more flowerpot and had an extra zipper, so they didn't do what these do, for me.<br />Next, when I did the Find I saw the name, Western boot, I wasn't sure--not&nbsp;a goal&nbsp;to be Western, really, but hey.</p> <p>So, I've held onto them so far and finally did some pics, though some of my cooler garb is still packed away. just to see if they have potential.<br />1. Nude leg look with YB animal print skirt. Pushing my envelope--not many examples on the homefront here; I might stand out too much! Can try more styling&nbsp; &nbsp;when have more time with more tonal looks.<br />Next up: <br />2-3 Tights looks are more in my comfort zone. I love the look of gray ribbed tights with light brown boots in mag photos, and so have tried that here. &nbsp;Something about the ribbing, gives a 2-tone effect, lower contrast with boots&nbsp;. But,&nbsp;ribbing makes it tougher&nbsp;as have to watch too much&nbsp;texture-mixing (the gray skirt is lace). Can try flat gray tights, or heather.</p> <p>What do you think? Any comments and suggestions appreciated. </p>
