By Thursday next week (payday, yay!) I'll officially have enough to buy them anyway, without it being a huge chunk out of my pay, so its like they are for free......right?? hehe twisted logic or what!!!</p> <p>But I'm also worried that if I delay on the EMs too much I'll miss out completely as the only place to get them online in my size is Nordies atm. Plus its northern hemisphere summer, so online boots are few and far between at the moment.</p> <p>.....any more votes??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-155505 Wed, 12 May 2010 03:28:11 +0000 Jenava 155505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Frye, but I also like the ideal of the OTK boots...although I kind of agree with Angie that they might be more wearable in a color other than black. I have a pair of Weitzman boots similar to the Frye and they are very versatile. So I guess my vote is for the Fryes, but to keep a look out for OTKs in gray. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-155486 Wed, 12 May 2010 02:55:57 +0000 Anonymous 155486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Frye! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-155474 Wed, 12 May 2010 02:41:02 +0000 yublocka 155474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok so cute as the FL booties are, I'll ignore them for now.</p> <p>So flat boots it is.

There is one way to get over the coveting and that is to try them and buy them or try them and realize they aren't for you. I think they are gorgeous though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-155137 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:14:22 +0000 Queen Mum 155137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm lost... where are the EM boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-155136 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:14:22 +0000 Maya 155136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam, the links are showing the same boots but holy cow I LOVE them! That is not much of a heel at all. They are the same height as your Vidal pumps and you wear those right? You have me lusting after them now. I might have to get them later in the season. I normally don't even like colored boots but that red is delicious.</p> <p>However, if you think the EM boots would be more versatile, maybe go for them? It's just so hard with boots. A good fit is tricky and postage is expensive for you. The FL's would be a virtually guaranteed fit if you order the same size as your pumps (maybe 1/2 size bigger since you would presumably wear socks). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-155130 Tue, 11 May 2010 14:07:26 +0000 yublocka 155130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*bumping thread*</p> <p>Trying to decide whether to go with the EM boots or forget about the whole thing.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154506 Mon, 10 May 2010 06:22:56 +0000 yublocka 154506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So ezibuy boots are officially sent back. Suprisingly postage was only $10 for such a large parcel (boots + 4 dresses!) I'm a bit sad they didn't work out - so close! - but glad I tried them otherwise I'd always be wondering if they'd have been perfect for me!</p> <p>Angie I've just done some internet browsing and not seen any cream/grey/lighter OTK boots at all that are a) flat, b) not suede, c) come in my size. Do you think the EM boots would look too harsh in black as well?? I am tempted to give them a go since Nordies has size 41, but international postage would work very $$ if they don't work out either.</p> <p>Another option if I forget this whole OTK malarky is to go for either of these cute Fly London booties. </p> <p><a href="http://www.endless.com/dp/B0025KVQYW/ref=asc_df_B0025KVQYW1109017?tag=endlesscj-20&#038;creative=380333&#038;linkCode=asn&#038;creativeASIN=B0025KVQYW#__asin=B0025KVQN8&#038;ref=dp_sbs_1" rel="nofollow">http://www.endless.com/dp/B002.....f=dp_sbs_1</a><br /> <a href="http://www.endless.com/FLY-London-Womens-Vegas-Ankle/dp/B0025KVQYW/ref=dp_sbs_1?fromPage=sims&#038;asins=B0025KVQYW,B0025KVPVQ,B0025KVTJ4,B001M5SSQA,B0025KVQBA,B002PEW8Y0,B002H9VXSU,B0025KVQ06,B0025KVS5O,B002PHMF54,B001J2Z1MA,B002PEW836,B002PEW246,B0025KVTMQ,B0025KVPSE&#038;contextTitle=Customers%20interested%20in%20this%20item%20also%20viewed" rel="nofollow">http://www.endless.com/FLY-Lon.....o%20viewed</a>...</p> <p>But cute as they are, I don't know how much wear they'd get given they have heels. I like the idea of flat boots that I can just throw on much more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154484 Mon, 10 May 2010 05:03:44 +0000 Angie 154484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam, I think that a lighter OTK boot is more versatile. Mine are light grey and a little lower than yours (they come half way up my knee). I wear them both over jeans and with shorter dresses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154460 Mon, 10 May 2010 03:02:08 +0000 Maya 154460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the EM boots would work with both a dress and pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154371 Sun, 09 May 2010 23:44:59 +0000 yublocka 154371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi st4rrgrrl I plan to wear them with dresses/tights and over jeans as seen <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-order-help">in this thread</a>. Not sure what other ways there are to wear them!</p> <p>Angie do you mean these boots in particular look harsh, or the colour looks harsh? I was thinking black for over-the-knee, and brown if I got the under the knee Frye ones. Here are the (roughly) knee-length boots I already have:<br /> - black Camper spirals<br /> - silver doc boots<br /> - <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/3644784975/in/set-72157608225256166/">scrunchy tan boots</a> that I bought 2nd hand last year in SF</p> <p>Do you think the EM ones would look better with a dress or is it this style that doesn't??. I would really like to wear them with both dress and jeans.</p> <p>Inge, I thought about grey, but not cream. The EM boots come in smog on endless &amp; amazon, but my size there is sold out and I can't see them anywhere else online either I haven't really seen any cream boots in my travels. Maybe I'll try googling some :)</p> <p>Maya I'm tending towards the EM myself. Hmmm. I really liked the fact these were actually the right height for me. Even the Spiral Campers and 20 hole docs I find a bit too short to be properly knee-height on me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154228 Sun, 09 May 2010 19:01:36 +0000 Maya 154228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for the EM boots! They will fit your calf and be tall enough. If I were taller I would probably have gone for them. As yet I have not found a pair of OTK boots that are short enough for me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154183 Sun, 09 May 2010 17:25:05 +0000 Inge 154183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I have to agree with Angie here Tam, sorry. Have you considered a lighter grey pair, or maybe bone or cream?</p> <p>Oh and I just wanted to say I love that colour blue on you, quite unexpected, and gorgeous!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154089 Sun, 09 May 2010 15:04:57 +0000 Angie 154089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for taking the pictures, Tam. That was glorious effort. </p> <p>I think the boots look great over jeans, but not as great with a dress. They look harsh and actually come up a little too high I think. So I vote return. Are you set on a black pair? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154069 Sun, 09 May 2010 14:21:10 +0000 florida 154069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that it depends on how you are going to wear them. These look cute for casual, but if you're going to go for dressier looks, I would say try the more fitted pair.<br /> I've been browsing over-the-knee boots in anticipation of Fall (months away, I know) and am curious what you plan to wear them with? I love the way they look but I'm not sure how I'd wear them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154061 Sun, 09 May 2010 13:40:35 +0000 Louise 154061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep I think expensive boots should may you smile every time you see them and no doubts if they are keepers x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-154042 Sun, 09 May 2010 13:21:11 +0000 yublocka 154042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Louise &amp; Queenie. I'm leaning towards returning and going for the side zippered EM pair. If they work, they work.

I think if they were more fitted they'd be difficult to put on &amp; take off. But is this amount of sagginess acceptable?</p> <p>Katiepea thanks for the welcome back. I have had a rough week actually - got a bad case of strep throat the very day I started work in a new place. Thanks to antibiotics, prednisione and lignocaine syrup I made it through the week but felt very sorry for myself!! I know what you mean about the gape, from some angles I love them, then from others I think they look all wrong.

Nice to read you - hope you are feeling refreshed after your little holiday!</p> <p>I'm going to be difficult in this instance and say I'd like to sit on the fence (sorry, I know you wanted a decision). </p> <p>I can say that I really, really liked these boots on you when I saw the front shot - my reaction was yes, yes, yes, Keep! However..... then I saw the side shot and I really didn't like the way they gaped. That sort of made me wonder if the other boots may be a better fit? I'll be fascinated to see what the other ladies say! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-153964 Sun, 09 May 2010 04:56:44 +0000 Misia 153964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look great, but I don't know how they should fit. One thing I'm going to say, if they are much more fitted, then how are you going to pull them up?<br /> I'm not sure if I missed the side zipper, then they could be more fitted!<br /> OK, I just had the second look and there is no zipper, so I say KEEP! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-boots-help-please#post-153949 Sun, 09 May 2010 02:50:25 +0000 yublocka 153949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I promised I'd <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ezibuy-order-help">take more photos</a> of these ezibuy boots to get the final veridct, and here they are (<a href="http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=ezibuy+boots&amp;w=12755470%40N00&amp;z=e&amp;s=rec">all on one page</a> if you prefer).</p> <p>Front body view: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590862454/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590862454/</a><br /> Front closeup: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590863256/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590863256/</a><br /> Front closeup #2: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590862924/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590862924/</a><br /> Side view: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590863582/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590863582/</a><br /> Closeup showing gape at front of boot: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590243297/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590243297/</a><br /> Closeup showing gape at back of boot: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590243889/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/yublocka/4590243889/</a></p> <p>What do you think?
