Hi, Mom!!!</p> <p><b>Cerinda</b>, I am sorry these didn't work for you. I was also tempted by the AGL but went with waterproof instead. I agree with you that these are cut quite a bit narrower than the other Aquatalia boots I have; mind you, those are moto boots, so a totally different style.&nbsp;</p> <p>I loved the AGLs also, though, so hopefully you'll be happy with them!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704442 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 17:59:06 +0000 Anonymous 1704442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're killer diller.&nbsp; I'll bet they'll look wonderful with the new gilet.&nbsp; But wait, didn't you mean to say booTEEES?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704428 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 17:18:44 +0000 Cerinda 1704428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jealous. &nbsp;But happy&nbsp;<i>someone&nbsp;</i>can love these beauties. &nbsp;I went to the store intending to grab these as Aquatalia usually fit my high volume feet and wide ankles well. &nbsp;Nope. &nbsp;The AGLs proved a reasonable alternative, but just don't have this amazing look. &nbsp;Lucky you, Suz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704341 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 15:21:29 +0000 JAileen 1704341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shoes v booties: that's how I feel, too. It feels like 4 1/2 months of sandals, 4 1/2 months of boots, and the just 1 1/2 months of shoes in spring and fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704333 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 15:08:06 +0000 Suz 1704333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is true -- they do show the tops!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Alas, they do not deliver to Canada. Ditto for 6 pm. It's a shame.&nbsp;</p> <p>I did see the Yasmines. They are very cool. I think all Aquatalias are weather proof whether they say so explicitly or not.&nbsp;</p> <p>I wish I could wear shoes (understood as oxfords, loafers, etc. -- anything that shows the foot a bit) for longer in my climate. The window for wearing them is super short. We go from boots to booties to sandals almost instantly. No joke.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have one pair of oxfords that I love but I wore them 3 times year before last and not even once last year.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704330 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 14:56:07 +0000 JAileen 1704330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, have you seen these?</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/aquatalia-women-shoes~1#!/aquatalia-women-silver-shoes/CK_XAUIC-ARSAq8CwAEB4gIEGAEKCA.zso?s=brandNameFacetLC/asc/productName/asc/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/aquatali.....tName/asc/</a></p> <p>None are on sale and apparently none are waterproof, but they are cool looking.</p> <p>I was puzzled by the comment about Zappos.

So bizarre.</p> <p>Suz, these are fantastic and I see see them getting heavy rotation in your closet. Two thumbs (toes?) up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704307 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 14:26:48 +0000 Suz 1704307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh -- I am sorry you missed out, <b>JAileen</b>. But you never know. They do keep floating back into stock, I think. So keep your eye on things. And yes, I definitely need for my winter. Actually, I can't wear them in my winter because the conditions are too rough -- these are a fall and spring (or indoor) bootie for me.&nbsp;</p> <p>Now for the snow boots, hehehehe.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sorry the oxfords did not work for you...that is frustrating. We will have to search for the silvery shoes together. I definitely want a pair of silver or pewter booties as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704293 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 14:16:54 +0000 JAileen 1704293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, so I had to look these up, and they're completely sold out! I had ordered the silver oxfords which did not work on my feet (at all!), and then stalked the AGL oxfords which came up in my size finally, but when I realized these booties were grey (!) I'm a little sad that I missed out. Particularly since booties are probably more practical in my climate than oxfords. However, I'm glad YOU have them because you have real weather up there at the North Pole and my winter is only considered real by people in the SF Bay Area. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-booties-ever/page/2#post-1704244 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 12:53:22 +0000 viva 1704244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such bootie excitement!

The ankle fit on these booties is actually a bit looser than it may appear in these photos, partly because of the photo angle, and also, I was wearing socks that I had folded down so they wouldn't show over top. In other words, the socks were taking up some space. But I still consider the ankle fit superb even though there is a bit of space, because I have to move in them after all. They follow the lines of my bones very smoothly without that flower pot gap.&nbsp;</p> <p>I wear socks with my boots so tried them first with socks. I tried them later without socks (not that I will ever wear that way) and certainly didn't feel that they were rough. And today is another sticky day here, so if they were going to rub me the wrong way, you'd think they'd do it now. My feet must be super swollen in the heat. So I really do wonder if the fit was wrong in the ones you tried, or the pair was a dud.&nbsp;</p> <p>Having met you in person, I would say that you have a much daintier frame than I do. We are close to the same height and maybe even weight, but my bones seem bigger overall. You have the prettiest wrists and ankles and collar bones (if it is not too weird to say so!) In contrast, my frame is actually a bit bigger than Angie's even though she is 2 inches taller than me.&nbsp;</p>
