The laces on the boots makes it more original. I's keep them for sure. It would also be a good match with a spring dress and a jean jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49656 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 19:32:41 +0000 Kellee 49656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tarzy,<br /> In your picture your legs do not look short to me.<br /> It must be that you have the correct length of boot for your leg.<br /> Nice talking 'horse'with you.<br /> Bellacville I think you are right. It never occurred to me to look at it that way.I am still thinking there is something underneath these new boots that smells..I guess I have to take the look out of the stable- in my mind. Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49646 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 19:08:40 +0000 Ariadne 49646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those boots are awesome. I want them! I think you'll have a hard time NOT wearing them all the time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49625 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 18:29:03 +0000 tarzy 49625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good idea - you should start another thread! I'm sure other long-legged ladies have the same problem. Those boots look great on you, though. Good score! </p> <p>(I have the opposite problem - short legs.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49624 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 18:27:53 +0000 bella 49624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You mentioned that you do horseback riding, right? Perhaps that's why you are having a hard time seeing this as a casual look. Again, as an impartial bystander, I can tell you that this is a great look and you pull it off so well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49622 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 18:24:15 +0000 Kellee 49622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Tarzy.<br /> I just read your (giddy yap) too funny..</p> <p>I have such a hard time finding a boot that is tall enough for me.<br /> If they go lower than a few inches below my knee they look weird with my curves.<br /> I believe I loose the best proportions for my shape. The longer the boot the longer the look of the leg.<br /> These boots have that extra tab of leather at the top<br /> which give it the appearance of going up to the knee (that dressage thing)which is why I bought them. </p> <p>Do you have the same problem with finding tall boots?<br /> Or has anyone else found a solution to finding a taller boot other than the "pirate" boots that I have seen that fold over at the knee? Not a good look for me.<br /> Maybe this question should be another post or has it been asked before? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49608 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 17:49:32 +0000 hanna 49608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the boots! definite keepers. i can see them working in all sorts of outfits </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49602 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 17:14:35 +0000 tarzy 49602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great in all these outfits! I personally don't think they look too equestrian at all.</p> <p>I posted a very similar question a while back and the general response was that it was fine.<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/giddy-yap?replies=12" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....replies=12</a></p> <p>I refrain from wearing my Irish hacking jacket with my riding boots, although I would love to! Your second outfit (with the long cardigan) is how I usually wear my boots and I think it looks perfectly fine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49599 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 17:01:12 +0000 Kellee 49599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for you feedback.</p> <p>My concern is the "lace up" area at the ankle .<br /> The picture may not be clear.<br /> I have added a picture of the boots .</p> <p><a href="http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo354/4seaglassgirl/Fashion/picresized_th_1234584918_001SteveMa.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i391.photobucket.com/al.....teveMa.jpg</a></p> <p>They were inexpensive, under $50 each, but if they are not going to go with me towards the more polished look I am trying to hit I should close the barn door on them. :)</p> <p>They will be a staple for me.. daytime “dress” casual boots.<br /> I can fall into the horsy, L.L. Bean barn coat look very easily. No offence to anyone. I have 4 Barn coats and love L.L. Bean.<br /> A friend of mine said she would inflict harm(ha) if I dare by another Barn coat. She is a YLF member too.<br /> My return to her is about my reaction if she dares to buy another jean jacket, in any other possible material that exists :)</p> <p>I like things in their original design/format. I almost bought paddock boots(riding boots).The lace up is for tightening your ankle area(great for someone like me who has had damage to that area while riding).<br /> But those boots ..aren't made for walking (Nancy Sinatra!) Love that song.</p> <p>Here is another outfit with the boots.<br /> Can the horse run with the daily "street casual" look I am going for?<br /> <a href="http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo354/4seaglassgirl/Fashion/picresized_th_1234582742_007_2Horse.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i391.photobucket.com/al.....2Horse.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49596 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 16:30:30 +0000 bella 49596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This style suits you so well, definitely keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49595 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 16:18:43 +0000 Anonymous 49595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look for you. I love the look for anyone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49593 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 16:09:00 +0000 Sarah 49593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the boots! I don't have an "equestrian" style personally, but I bought black boots similar to those (Aerosole Ride Lines 'riding' boots). I liked them so much I quit wearing my dressier boots. I wear my riding boots with dresses, skirts, and jeans. So I think these boots can expand beyond the obvious style, if that makes sense. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/equestrian-boots-should-they-stay-in-the-barn#post-49591 Fri, 13 Feb 2009 16:04:21 +0000 Kellee 49591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I saw these boots Steve Madden boots at the Rack on sale and bought them in black and brown.<br /> My question, do you think I will get enough bang for my buck with them? I can do the horsy look easily, Burberry quilted jacket etc. Maybe not a YLF thing, but it will always be a look of mine.<br /> But how do you think they translate with these outfits?<br /> Thanks!</p> <p><a href="http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo354/4seaglassgirl/Fashion/picresized_th_1234542746_016_3Horse.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i391.photobucket.com/al.....3Horse.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo354/4seaglassgirl/Fashion/picresized_th_1234542572_009_2Horse.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i391.photobucket.com/al.....2Horse.jpg</a> </p>
