Try one color (I also vote for the more brown color) first. If you love it, then I say go for the other color, too! Who knows how long it will be before another style fits as well? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415672 Sat, 03 Sep 2011 13:12:21 +0000 modgrl 415672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Di, I love these boots! I have a 2 pairs of identical boots in different colors form last winter. One pair is one of my workhorses, the other doesn't get worn as frequently. If they were both going to be everyday boots, I would want more variety. How high are they? They look kind of tall, at 5'4", you might be looking for a slightly lower boot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415666 Sat, 03 Sep 2011 12:46:53 +0000 Di 415666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>tarzy, those are darling-- but I definitely don't want ankle boots! Somehow, that's what all the cute cognac ones I'm finding are, but at 5'4", I don't have enough leg to shorten! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415567 Sat, 03 Sep 2011 02:43:12 +0000 tarzy 415567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you ever want an ankle boot, this cognac might work well for you:<br /> <a href="http://www.zappos.com/frye-taylor-short-tan-leather" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/frye-tay.....an-leather</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415547 Sat, 03 Sep 2011 01:52:14 +0000 Sveta 415547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will be the odd one here - I like the sand ones! they will look great with skirts and dresses and bare legs - they should be pretty low contrast to your skin, right?<br /> While it is wise to have a pair of boots to bookend your hair you should have other options as well- especially as it looks you are really in love with these sand boots.<br /> I bought a pair of grey boots last fall because I fell in love with them. They are darker than yours but still not bookending my brown hair. They were my favorite boots last winter and worked virtually with everything!<br /> Follow your heart... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415516 Sat, 03 Sep 2011 00:52:19 +0000 Di 415516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, I think I'm buying the sandy ones first, ignoring the fact that they're not as dark as my hair, and hoping that the grey ones are still there to squeeze into October's budget! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415472 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 23:01:25 +0000 Anonymous 415472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! I love the sandy ones for you. In fact, if you could only get one pair, those would bookend really well (and of course you can wear them with grey clothes). Just my two cents. Your hair is beautiful, you're smart to think of bringing out it's color with boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415470 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 22:58:41 +0000 Di 415470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're all lovely, thanks!</p> <p>tarzy, you'd be surprised how many cool-colored clothes I have (I think it works because I'm so pasty). So really, the question is, do I buy the grey AND the sandy ones, or just the grey. Sounds like I'm hearing the sandy ones are a win. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415463 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 22:46:13 +0000 san 415463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh those are pretty boots and you are beautiful. What a glorious head of hair you have. I would love to see you bookend that lovely halo with the light brown/chestnut color boots. And what a hunk there on your arm too.<br /> No I do not think it is bad to buy the boots in 2 different colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415461 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 22:43:16 +0000 tarzy 415461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair is absolutely gorgeous!<br /> I love the second pair - the Tuscany.<br /> I worry the first might be too cool, depending on your wardrobe. I'm assuming you might tend to wear warmer colors? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415459 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 22:34:54 +0000 Anonymous 415459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the light brown. To me they look like they match your hair pretty well, they have darker brown with high lights. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bookending-boots#post-415450 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 22:26:34 +0000 Di 415450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was looking for a pair of gray boots, and found these, which are pretty much exactly what I was looking for: <a href="http://www.luckybrand.com/Hibiscus-Leather-Riding-Boots/LBA01692,default,pd.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.luckybrand.com/Hibi.....lt,pd.html</a> .</p> <p>But I'm also looking for a pair that will bookend my hair, and the light brown version is ADORABLE: <a href="http://www.luckybrand.com/Hibiscus-Leather-Riding-Boots/LBA01690,default,pd.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.luckybrand.com/Hibi.....lt,pd.html</a></p> <p>So here are my questions:</p> <p>1) Is it totally unreasonable to buy two colors in the same boots?<br /> 2) Can I pretend my hair is lighter than it is, and use the light brown to bookend? And if not, can I pretend that this color will be just as versatile as a cognac (that really would match my hair, and thus effectively bookend)?</p> <p>Oh-- and one more question: Can I wear such light colored footwear in the winter?</p> <p>And, a pic attached that pretty accurately shows the color of my hair.</p> <p>Thanks, ladies! </p>
