I've gone ahead and ordered the Sam Edelman Lisle booties in red. They not only had the most votes here, but are an Angie recommended item (that alone carries alot of weight!) and I think will be the most versatile. Plus they are a slightly different style for me and I'm looking forward to trying something new.</p> <p>I ended up ordering them from Amazon - the price is the same as that listed by Nordstrom but the shipping is significantly less. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713663 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:05:19 +0000 Carole 713663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a little late to the party, but thought I'd throw in my 2 cents...I vote the SAMs. I like the simpler style, but that's me. I'm not an expert on your color question, but I'm thinking it might almost look a little better and not so matchy matchy if the reds were slightly different, can't wait to see you post pictures in your new boots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713661 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:58:07 +0000 modgrl 713661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How's about these cuties:<br /> <a href="http://www.zappos.com/born-lisandra-black-leather" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/born-lisandra-black-leather</a><br /> in the rust leather </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713605 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:28:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 713605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Diana - must you torture me (lol)?</p> <p>Yep, those are gorgeous alright. </p> <p>Here's another question to complicate matters: once I get back my tomato red Gap blazer from Wonder Woman, I will want to wear it over the Bailey 44 dress as one of my topper options. Does the red of the blazer need to match the red of the booties? Would it look weird if the blazer is a true red but the booties are more dark red/grenadine??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713596 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:21:06 +0000 Diana 713596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seychelles! They push all my buttons, I love them so much. </p> <p>Just to complicate things... I spent a long time a couple of days ago trying to figure out if this "grenadine" color is actually just the same red photographed differently, or if modcloth somehow has an exclusive color. If it really is this dark burgundy color, then it's perfect!</p> <p><a href="http://www.modcloth.com/shop/shoes-boots/dearest-boot-in-grenadine" rel="nofollow">http://www.modcloth.com/shop/s.....-grenadine</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713577 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:11:38 +0000 April 713577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Edelmans -- for the selfish, evil reason that if you get the Edelmans, I can get the Seychelles in black without feeling like a copycat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713565 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:04:38 +0000 Transcona Shannon 713565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Been looking again and I think those of you who have voted for the Sam Edelman may be on to something here - the colour is rich but not too red, you know? and I don't have any booties in this style (a bit more western looking) Maybe the lace up Seychelles are TOO similar to my Docs? Plus I could tuck skinnies into the Edelman's easily. Plus we already know from Angie's clients that they are comfy. Getting closer... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713561 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:03:44 +0000 annagybe 713561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also vote Sam Edelman's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713558 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:00:09 +0000 rae 713558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote Sam Edelman! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713556 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 14:56:07 +0000 Transcona Shannon 713556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That time worked - thanks!

I love the height, the heel shape and colour, the almost vintage hue of the red, the flap, and the fact that they lace up which suggests I can get a reasonably tight fit around the ankle.</p> <p>So how about we take the Cobb's out of the equation and make it between the Seychelles and the Sam Edelman's - which one??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713528 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 14:38:02 +0000 JAileen 713528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Sam Edelman's - a bit of a Western influence.

I kind of wonder about the height and shape of the shaft on the Cobb Hills. To me, they look like the kind of boots to be worn under jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713475 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 14:05:25 +0000 pil 713475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm partial to the Seychelles too, if only because the flap makes them more unique. But, is that a plus or minus in that the side angle of the flap kind of mimics the banding of the dress? Or maybe it doesn't even come into the equation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/battle-of-the-red-booties#post-713445 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 13:41:11 +0000 modgrl 713445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Sam Edelman's but I also like the idea of the lace ups.

I do have blue suede booties that work well with it too, as well as my Doc Marcies. But I'm still lusting after red.</p> <p>These are the three candidates up for review - 1) Seychelles Dearest <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Seychelles-Womens-Dearest-Ankle-Boot/dp/B007IOE9U8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1346937075&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=seychelles+red+boots" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Seychell.....+red+boots</a>; 2) Sam Edelman Lisle (Angie pick) <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Sam-Edelman-Womens-Lisle-Bootie/dp/B006WCNI9K/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_3?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1346937359&#038;sr=8-3-fkmr0&#038;keywords=sam+edelman+red+booties" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Sam-Edel.....ed+booties</a>; or the Cobb Shannon bootie <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/cobb-hill-shannon-boot/3314846?origin=keywordsearch&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=Red&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/co.....sultback=0</a></p> <p>One of these is a pretty clear front runner - curious to see what you like. The other option is no red booties at all because I don't need them.</p> <p>Let's see what you think... </p>
