The tall Taos boots are on my wishlist for this fall. The Chloe boots are indeed pretty and your outfit is stunning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2129143 Tue, 23 Jun 2020 04:31:06 +0000 Brooklyn 2129143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shevia. I take it as very high praise. The skirt has bands of blue, yellow and burgundy underneath it, which allows me to pair it with teal, gold and burgundy. That’s my matchy matchy trick!</p> <p>Thanks Jenna and Rachy.</p> <p>Thanks Suz. I love glowing :)</p> <p>Thanks Sally. Love those boots. I’m thinking about something similar but not sure whether I can justify any heels at the moment. Yes to lunch in Sydney. But BYO handbag :)</p> <p>Thanks Angie. I hope things go well with the easing of restrictions. We are having some issues with increasing cases in Victoria (one of our states) since easing restrictions. Still a very low case rate at this stage but obviously the rest of the country is watching with concern. It’s going to be a long road.</p> <p>Thanks NM. Teal would suit you too!</p> <p>Thanks Lisa. Yes, The Bridge does have subtitles. That means I have to fully engage with it - step away from my phone! That is good for me at times! But it is a great show too.</p> <p>Jenn, thanks. My jeans are cotton, which I find comfortable. Some versions of coated jeans are high in poly or viscose - I don’t like those so much. That said I still feel a bit more precious about these jeans than regular blue jeans. They are not quite as soft and feel a bit less knockabout, if that makes sense.</p> <p>And thanks Star, TG and MJ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2129129 Tue, 23 Jun 2020 02:49:37 +0000 Jaime 2129129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My Serbian and American cum Finnish friends love The Bridge but I had never realize it was for the fashion inspo! Anyway you look gorgeous, as usual. I always am inspired by your choice of colors and themes. You always look integrated. Sounds like a compliment generated by a robot but really I mean it as very high praise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2129097 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 22:54:07 +0000 Anonymous 2129097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything looks great. Outfit #2 is crazy good. I immediately noticed the earrings and fishnets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2129072 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 21:11:50 +0000 Suz 2129072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Brooklyn</b>, you look amazing in both looks. How smart of you to get the taller Taos boots. I have the Crave boots in the shorter version and enjoy them.&nbsp;</p> <p>You look absolutely glowing in the teal top! The burgundy is terrific, too. So glad you are able to be out and about more and things remain pretty good in Australia.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2129069 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 21:01:29 +0000 rachylou 2129069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2129062 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 20:46:02 +0000 Sal 2129062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both of these Brooklyn but especially no 2.&nbsp; I haven't seen that show (I watched The Tunnel which I think was based off it - not sure).</p> <p>That lace midi is stunning - and I always love any outfit with that teal bag&nbsp; (watch out when I get back to Sydney if we have lunch- it is my favourite handbag on the forum!!)</p> <p>I saw these boots yesterday online and thought of you.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.beaucoops.co.nz/products/banks-black">https://www.beaucoops.co.nz/products/banks-black</a></p> <p>NZ thought we had got rid of Covid19 but there are a few cases at the border and lots of media complaining about the border protocols etc&nbsp; (two women were granted permission to attend a funeral, not tested and then had Covid19).&nbsp; But we are pretty lucky as there does not appear to be community spread at the moment.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2129004 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 17:46:40 +0000 Angie 2129004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER x2 - just as I expect from super stylish you. You wear burgundy and teal with the best of them! Good alteration job on the jeans. Creative! &nbsp;</p> <p>It's wonderful that you found a stompy brand of boots you can wear all the time, and that you like the look of too. Taos goes down well with my clients. A good Seattle Winter shoe.......</p> <p>In Seattle, WA, we have JUST entered phase 2:<br /> <br /> <div><b><i></i><i></i></b><i>"The second phase allows restaurants and taverns to operate at half capacity with seating restrictions; hair and nail salons, barber shops, tattoo parlors and pet groomers to operate at half capacity; and retail stores to allow in-store purchases at 30% capacity. Domestic service providers such as house cleaners and nannies can return to work, with restrictions, as can manufacturers, construction workers and real estate agents. Phase 2 also allows additional outdoor recreation, indoor religious services with restrictions, and one gathering per week with no more than five people from outside a single household".<br /> </i> <p><i></i></p> <p><i></i>In the US, the COVID-19 pandemic all still quite hectic. Many states are only peeking now in their first wave.&nbsp;</p> <p>Downtown Seattle shopping area is still boarded up, although the Flagship Nordstrom is opening very softly tomorrow. I will attend.&nbsp;</p> </div></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128986 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 15:56:45 +0000 nemosmom 2128986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow how gorgeous is that teal on you?!?!?! Great alteration on the coated flares - I can see how they will be way more useful to you now. Love those boots! I have a pair of Taos sneakers that I love. I like how their styles have just a nice bit of extra flair/detail without being over the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128964 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 14:40:14 +0000 Anonymous 2128964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've watched a bit of the Bridge, but couldn't get through it. Subtitles, maybe? &nbsp;Anyways, I love a good combat boot, and these are great on you! &nbsp;Your styling is fantastic here, as it always is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128962 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 14:16:58 +0000 Jenn 2128962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm about halfway through watching The Bridge, and agree with Bijou--your take is much more polished, which is true to your own style. I have been sort of interested in coated jeans recently...as laid-back and natural as my core style is, I always feel a pull towards urban edginess. Are they comfortable?</p> <p>The second outfit is pure Brooklyn. You rock that teal color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128960 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 14:10:16 +0000 Star (Lise) 2128960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both outfits, especially #2, so cool and edgy yet polished.&nbsp; What I aim for, you nailed it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128956 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 14:00:28 +0000 Helena 2128956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Masterful - you managed to retain your highly polished and pretty look while adding this 'tough' element in a way that is both statement and seamless. A++!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128953 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 13:58:27 +0000 Mirjana 2128953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Combat boots are beautiful, and you look fantastic with skirt, love, love so much. Color combo is great. But all outfits are perfect as usual. I also bought combat boots at the end of this winter inspired by YLF and I like them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128937 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 13:00:25 +0000 Brooklyn 2128937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ST. And more working from home too! Good for pets. I used to hate going to work all day, everyday, and not getting home until dark. It was such a long day for my dog. Now we are rarely apart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128936 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:56:27 +0000 Brooklyn 2128936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Bijou. I love the Chloe vibe, pity it’s so spendy. Saga’s style is very minimalist. She would not understand the size of my wardrobe. I can imagine the puzzled look on her face now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128935 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:52:59 +0000 Anonymous 2128935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your version more than the inspiration too!<br /> I'm so glad for the pet adoption increases Hopefully more landlords will end their no pet policies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128934 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:48:33 +0000 Bijou 2128934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is such a treat to see your outfits and what inspired them. You look more polished and luxe than Saga, but have captured her cool and edgy vibe. Chloe is such a great label for you, your bags and boots are the perfect support act. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128930 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:33:27 +0000 Brooklyn 2128930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Chris. I haven’t tried their sandals but I’ll keep an eye out in the Spring. Their sneakers and boots are great. They have some sort of memory foam insert that makes the comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128927 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:30:54 +0000 Brooklyn 2128927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks DL. One or eight pair of boots... sounds like me!</p> <p>And I agree about foster pets. Pets are for life. Hopefully foster organisations are keeping their re-homing standards high. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128925 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:27:09 +0000 Chris987 2128925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! I love the way you put dark colors together.&nbsp; I recently became a fan too of Taos footwear, although for me it's been sandals. I'll have to keep them in mind for boots...I've not been a fan of stompy boots but who knows maybe I will be this year.</p> <p>There has been an increase in pet adoptions here too...I bet that is worldwide.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128923 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:18:23 +0000 delurked 2128923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it, of course. If I’m in need of boots (which I am not), I would definitely have tried out the crave boot. Luckily I’ve got some coated jeans waiting for fall in my closet, plus one or eight pair of boots. And I love the pop of color the teal bag provides. </p> <p>Brooklyn - I so hope many fostered pets are foster failed and that they are part of the loving family they deserve. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128920 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:09:31 +0000 Brooklyn 2128920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks RobinF. We cross posted. I hope you are keeping safe and well too.</p> <p>ETA: And I’m glad you agree combat boots can be pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128919 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:08:06 +0000 Brooklyn 2128919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet: Yup, same here. Apparently here there was a surge in demand for pets during the lockdown. Which is not surprising, we need company! I just hope they keep the pets now that we are opening up again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128918 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 12:05:36 +0000 RobinF 2128918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, fabulous! I love both of these, the boots are gorgeous. I love combat boots - just tough enough and just pretty enough.</p> <p>Regarding the virus - ugh. Around here many people don't take it seriously. So frustrating. And scary. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128914 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 11:54:39 +0000 Janet 2128914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Brooklyn, I totally get that. My husband and I were just talking the other day about how hard all of this must be for someone living alone. I have hugged exactly one person in four months, and that’s my husband. I don’t know where I would be if not for him. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128912 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 11:50:07 +0000 Brooklyn 2128912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Janet. The no-hugging thing is hard. I feel particularly bad for single people. My mum (who is single) took a long time to understand it was for her protection and was very sad about it. But now I do feel safe enough (with our case rate) to give her a quick hug. We still distance while talking, which actually feels pretty natural now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/combat-boots-3#post-2128909 Mon, 22 Jun 2020 11:39:16 +0000 Janet 2128909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I like your version even better with the burgundy moto! And the skirt outfit is fab too. </p> <p>We are still sheltering in place for the foreseeable future. Hubs is in Texas right now, and he says his brother is mad at him for not getting close enough to give a hug. A lot of people in certain states are not taking this thing seriously so rates are spiking. Sigh. </p>
