I love your grey Fryes too. Hoping the ROM continues to improve. It’s gotten a lot better already. I still have several pairs of boots that I can’t get on yet--keeping my fingers crossed.</p> <p>@Tex: I keep going back on the short vs. long but now I kind of want something that will hide the ugly leg for awhile!&nbsp;</p> <p>@Una: Lol!&nbsp;</p> <p>@Denise: I wore out my grey skinnies last year and gave away a lot of my colored jeans. I’m hoping these will work with olive and blue denim. What I’m really hoping is that I can tuck BF jeans into these.</p> <p>@Anna: I’ve never had a problem getting my feet into boots until this injury. I hope they pull on just like my Frye Carsons. Fingers crossed I think my feet are pretty average--average size, width and arch.</p> <div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001812 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 21:12:27 +0000 annagybe 1001812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you have an high instep or arch? Even after stretching I could never get Veronica's on my feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001807 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 21:07:06 +0000 CocoLion 1001807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love any and all shades of grey and silver so I am loving these. &nbsp;Do you have lighter wash jeans you can wear with these? &nbsp;Wait -- maybe you NEED a pair of cute grey skinnies to go with these! &nbsp;It might make a good alternative to blue, blue and more blue. &nbsp;I think they'd look great with shorts or skirts or dresses as well, being they would look cool against your skin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001753 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 19:23:23 +0000 catgirl 1001753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Drooling over this color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001728 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 18:46:22 +0000 texstyle 1001728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got the shortie version of this style in the Tan Burnished color last year and I really like them - but this color looks fantastic for you.&nbsp; I ordered both sizes and ended up keeping the 1/2 size up to accommodate thick socks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001672 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 17:55:17 +0000 Mo 1001672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these! &nbsp;But being that I own some grey Frye's myself, I may be a bit biased &nbsp;<br />Hope your range of motion comes along quickly. &nbsp;I still have a bit less in my sprained ankle these years later. &nbsp;I wonder if I'd have pushed more at the end of healing if I could have gained that little extra bit . . .&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001663 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 17:46:44 +0000 Glory 1001663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ceit you lovely enabler!!! which ones are you after? I bought and returned the brown combat boots from softmoc last year because I just couldnt get brown working in my wardrobe. Kind of regretful...but now looking for new ones. Do you love your engineers? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001661 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 17:45:43 +0000 kellygirl 1001661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the affirmation! I've wanted Veronica's forever. I liked the tall ones, then thought I'd get the Shorties, now I want the tall ones again. I had a break through the other day and was able to get an unzippered boot on my bad foot. Finally! I can only get my Carsons on but I feel like range of motion is only going to improve from this point on (fingers crossed.) I need a lower heeled boot and find the soles of my Docs too stiff. Hoping that the Veronica works out in terms of color, fit and comfort. If not, I'll send them back :)&nbsp;<br />@Glory: I know, that's my only worry. I am able to get my Frye Carsons on so I hope that is a good sign.&nbsp;<br />@Ceit: Thanks for chiming in on size. This color does look like you, btw!<br />@Lisa: I remember your grey boots with the buckles. I coveted those!<br />@Ingunn: I can totally see a rich chocolate brown Veronica on you!<br />@Suz: As soon as you mentioned Ceit, I thought they would be perfect for her! I hope they suit me too.<br />@Karie: Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001639 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 17:37:02 +0000 Anonymous 1001639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glory -- stalk gravitypope.com -- they are having a 30% off sale prices now, that is where I got mine from. Mine are black, but they get different colours in each year. I am definitely going to keep my eye out there. SoftMoc sometimes has the brown ones on sale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001628 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 17:27:32 +0000 Glory 1001628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a huge fan of the veronicas - I have the black ones and they just keep getting better everytime I wear them. I now want a second pair so am stalking sales - tough to find in Canada.<br />These ones are fantastic. My only concern based on my experience is they are hard to get on - tugging required.&nbsp;<br />I hope this won't be the case for you - worried about that achilles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001475 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 13:25:39 +0000 Lisa 1001475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are gorgeous.&nbsp; I picked up a pair of grey Cole Haan buckle boots at my first year of NAS and wore them until they wore out.&nbsp; So I vote yes, the lighter color can be quite versatile.&nbsp; You can wear the light color with lighter bottoms or bookend with a lighter top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001432 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 11:56:26 +0000 Karie 1001432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also a HUGE fan of boots, and these are gorgeous - go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001430 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 11:52:47 +0000 Anonymous 1001430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will definitely keep this colourway in mind when I replace my grey boots </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001416 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 10:50:05 +0000 Suz 1001416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heh! I just looked at the photo and thought: Those have Ceit's name written all over them!&nbsp;</p> <p>They are gorgeous, Kelly, and I am pretty sure they could work for you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001405 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 10:05:26 +0000 Anonymous 1001405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them!! I just bought some Veronicas in black suede on the shaft and smooth leather on the foot. They are kind of addictive and I want to replace my grey buckle moto boots that are falling apart.</p> <p>I got my normal size and they fit perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001371 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 07:30:38 +0000 Ingunn 1001371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck with these, Kelly! I really like them for you. For myself, I'd love to find these in chocolate brown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001343 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 05:49:52 +0000 kellygirl 1001343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Firecracker. I tried on several at NAS but none of them were "the" boot (kind of like your coat experience.) I've got rugged black and browns and kind of wanted something a little different (plus I need a lower heel.) Hopefully, they will look like they do in the picture and hopefully I have gained enough range of motion in my ankle to get them on!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001341 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 05:43:41 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1001341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I look forward to seeing them on you! They are gorgeous, and personally I love the color. Goes with black, brown, gray, navy, sage or olive greens--all the neutrals I tend to mix up in my own wardrobe. I can definitely see them on you, too; they're a softer color to match with denim, for a fun change. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001337 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 05:24:43 +0000 kellygirl 1001337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Rae: I was almost going to chime into your no more online ordering thread but I know myself too well!<br />@Marley: Yes, let's blame Rae!&nbsp;<br />@Cathy: Thanks! I was going back reading posts on the Veronica's. &nbsp;I know you ordered a half size up--but most of the review said they were true to size. Geez, I wish shoes were cars--I'm finding car shopping to be excruciatingly painful! I'm thinking slate will bookend my hair soon. This injury is aging me!</p> <p>ETA: Okay, they are ordered. Stay tuned for&nbsp;K/R, assuming I can get these on the injured leg!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001330 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 05:17:43 +0000 cciele 1001330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it from what I can see. I have regular slate Veronicas and it is a versatile color. I can only imagine the burnished version would be extra special, with that worn-in effect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001325 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 05:04:01 +0000 Marley 1001325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly - lets blame it on Rae - she's got me looking at boots too!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001322 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 05:00:55 +0000 rae 1001322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They do look awesome in the pic! I know... This boot thing is a Sickness, lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001317 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 04:43:43 +0000 kellygirl 1001317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Marley. Rae's post&nbsp;has me looking at boots again--lol!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001313 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 04:37:31 +0000 Marley 1001313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't seen these IRL - but there are absolutely gorgeous in the picture!&nbsp; I love the looks of them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-veronica#post-1001309 Thu, 08 Aug 2013 04:28:01 +0000 kellygirl 1001309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Quick question about the versatility of this color. I struck out at NAS and am considering these. Initially, I wanted a dark brown boot but now I think I&nbsp;want something different. What do you think? Too light for me? I pretty much live in denim. TIA :)&nbsp;</p> <p>(It's called Slate burnished antique. Has anyone seen this IRL?)&nbsp; </p>
