Do they fit well around your ankle? With lace ups I tend to have trouble with the tongue slipping. I always have it sewn in place. It only takes a small amount of tacking to get the job done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-courtneys#post-1400905 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 06:43:54 +0000 Deb 1400905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good choice!! These are beautiful boots Tania. Classy, classic, feminine with edge and a practical heel height. Great colour and a nice change from ubiquitous black that nearly everyone wears. They must look good with your hair colour too. I don't think you can go wrong with these Frye's and I'm sure you will enjoy them for many years to come. You can make them work in lots of ways. I'm confident in my style of dressing and never feel the need to try to emulate what others do on YLF, but I'm personally, and unusually, tempted to buy these boots too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-courtneys#post-1400815 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 01:42:13 +0000 Tania 1400815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have much of a wardrobe since I'm pretty much starting from scratch, but I gravitate towards red.&nbsp; </p> <p>My tall boots are maybe expresso brown.&nbsp; My docs are black and cherry red.&nbsp; My hair is dark brown.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-courtneys#post-1400811 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 01:36:09 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1400811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How are they working for your wardrobe in terms of color? That is, what colors are in your shoe collection compared to what's in your clothing collection? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-courtneys#post-1400801 Sat, 22 Nov 2014 01:19:49 +0000 Tania 1400801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to the store to look at ankle boots.&nbsp; I brought home the Courtney lace-ups in dark brown.</p> <p><a href="http://www.thefryecompany.com/courtney-lace-up/d/71065C9604" rel="nofollow">http://www.thefryecompany.com/.....71065C9604</a></p> <p>For non-utility boots, I&nbsp;own a pair of tall suede Aquatalia riding boots in brown and two pairs of Docs.&nbsp;&nbsp;These are working well for me in my mostly MOTG&nbsp;life, but I wanted a slightly more refined bootie for&nbsp;occasional use.&nbsp; I almost got sucked into the Veronica combat boots...very predictable for me, but maybe&nbsp;for another time, if I decide the Docs are too clunky for me.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>I like the Courtney Fryes&nbsp;but I can still return them.&nbsp;&nbsp;The store was out of the Veronicas in my size, but the salesperson brought out the Courtneys and they fit perfectly.&nbsp; My hesitation is that I would like to keep my wardrobe somewhat minimal.&nbsp; Since I'm still sorting out a "style" direction, I worry that I will spend money on something that doesn't really work for me.&nbsp; But if these are long-term keepers, I don't mind the investment.&nbsp; </p> <p>They seem to work under my existing bootcut jeans and a pair of white straight leg jeans, and I can tuck my tight skinnies into them.&nbsp;&nbsp;In fact, when I did that at the store, at least 3 different women took long looks at my boots, and one came up to me and told me that I should take them home.&nbsp; lol.&nbsp; I would like to try skirts with them too, but I don't know when I'll get to that experiment.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thoughts?&nbsp; </p> <p></p>
