I like the color better and the style. They seem like they'd be more versatile if that's a consideration. I think they look better with your skin tone also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632262 Wed, 30 May 2012 04:31:37 +0000 Mo 632262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ooh, grommet Julia's!! My vote too! I can vouch, as a fellow skinny legger, that the knee high Julia's lace up tight enough on my leg. I did find mine tight in the forefoot for the size, but that might be the reason why they were an open box wearhouse deal to start with? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632238 Wed, 30 May 2012 04:13:11 +0000 Kari 632238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooooh.

Must be a common size. I have lots of ankle boots and booties too (my faves). I *have* had to kiss plenty of frogs though to find all of these princely pairs!</p> <p>Anyhoo, I am with Rae in that I don't think either of these are fab, make-your-heart-go-pitter-patter boots, and that's what you deserve, darn it!</p> <p>I like the idea of lace-ups. What sites can you buy from (cheap shipping-wise)? I could keep my eyes peeled for you.</p> <p>Nordstrom? A couple from there, below. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632079 Wed, 30 May 2012 02:11:44 +0000 Kari 632079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the Anetlopes as well. I rather like the color on you - even though it's not an exact match to your skin tone, they still can function as a quasi-"nude" shoe that still extends your leg line. (I use my yellow shoes in the same way, and they certainly don't match my skin tone exactly, either!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632078 Wed, 30 May 2012 02:09:43 +0000 catgirl 632078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Diana, those are perfect, but I can't find anything like that in my size (5.5 or 6). I've been looking for a couple of months now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632071 Wed, 30 May 2012 02:05:31 +0000 Diana 632071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not crazy about either option. Both seem too gappy to me. I prefer the color of the Antelopes even though they are less "nude." The Fryes seem too warm and orangey to me. </p> <p>My ankles are actually the same size as yours but my calves are way bigger. I prefer mid-calf boots (higher than both of these options) but this may not work for you given that your calves are so slim. On me, the higher opening means a smaller gap at the top. I don't like most ankle height boots on me because of the gapping. I adore lace-up boots too.</p> <p>What about something like these?<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Dolce-Vita-Womens-Jasper-Boot/dp/B0050ARG1G/ref=pd_sbs_shoe_5" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Dolce-Vi.....sbs_shoe_5</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632069 Wed, 30 May 2012 02:04:42 +0000 rae 632069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My Julias do fit under pants, and mine go all the way up to the knee. My guess is they'll probably work under dress pants cuffed or uncuffed.</p> <p>ETA: since you hava a wider foot, you may want to size up. I sized down, but my foot is narrow, and Mo said her regular size was a little tight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632067 Wed, 30 May 2012 02:04:20 +0000 Janet 632067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, Frye Julia's! You can be Rae's and my boot triplet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632066 Wed, 30 May 2012 02:02:53 +0000 Janet 632066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know what? I have mostly taller boots! I have also found it frustrating to find something in a shortie boot unless it zips up close to the leg (i.e., my black Fuevogs - they fit around my ankle perfectly!)). I have pair of short Miz Mooz cowboyish boots that are a mustard-y color, and I only wear them with bootcut jeans. I feel like I look like I'm standing in a pan if I try them with anything like a skirt or shorts. </p> <p>I would love to find something neutral like you're looking for to wear with skirts and bare legs. I gave up last year and defaulted to my tan cowboy boots. If you don't go for the Antelopes and I see something promising, I'll keep you posted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632063 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:58:30 +0000 catgirl 632063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, they have the grey in my size for $125! The only issue is that I was looking for ankle boots to wear under work pants, but these might work because they are fitted. Do you wear your Julias under jeans and pants? I seem to recall seeing a couple of WIWs like that... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632060 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:55:11 +0000 catgirl 632060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Janet, that makes me feel better.

I'm pretty slight-boned, but I just thought you might like to know that your ankles are not freakishly tiny! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632046 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:47:43 +0000 catgirl 632046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, I don't want suede so the Report boots are out. I am trying the DV boots in orange but those haven't arrived yet. </p> <p>Perhaps I should be looking for a lace-up? I feel like I've seen EVERY boot that is out there right now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632042 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:44:11 +0000 rae 632042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm, mine are the same. I guess I just have a massive calf in comparison... but the point of my story is that if you decide to take a break, I will keep my eye out and snap a pic on my ankles if I see anything likely. </p> <p>I'm thinking you already rejected the Report booties, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632025 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:31:22 +0000 catgirl 632025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just measured them at a whopping 9 inches, and that's around the bone. 8 inches above the ankle. Ridiculous, I know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632015 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:24:21 +0000 rae 632015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hate to say it, but I think you can do better than either one. :T</p> <p>How big are your ankles, Una? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632009 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:20:40 +0000 Jaime 632009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely prefer the antelope. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-632007 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:19:29 +0000 Deborah 632007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I much prefer the antelopes. I prefer the color, the shape, everything really. I think they would be more versatile too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-631988 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:10:54 +0000 jen 631988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ps I meant the antelopes, not liking the Fryers at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-631987 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:10:24 +0000 jen 631987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look fab, if they were hugging your ankle they would look weird. I'd certainly wear them, can see them now with my skinnies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-631986 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:09:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 631986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I much prefer the Antelope boot. I love the shape, the different tones within the taupe/grey colour and the height of the shaft. There's something about the orange tone of the Fryes that doesn't work to my eye - it's like they tried to be orange but didn't quite make it all the way, you know? I also think the Antelopes look very nice peeking out from underneath your trousers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-631983 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:05:59 +0000 catgirl 631983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jonesy, these would be for work under trousers, or for casual with skirts and jeans. </p> <p>I don't think I can order from yoox with the shipping costs, which is a shame since they have more fab stuff than I can stand. I'm not necessarily looking for a nude, just a lighter "summer" boot color. </p> <p>(Is greyish-taupe anyone's nude? I hope not!)</p> <p>If we're assuming nude is not the deciding factor, would you like these? And thank you for your honesty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frye-vs-antelope-you-be-the-judge-6-photos#post-631976 Wed, 30 May 2012 01:00:56 +0000 Jonesy 631976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, did you see all of the yoox.com boots I posted on your last thread about looking for a nude boot? I think I like the shape of the Antelope better, but the color certainly doesn't read as a "nude" for you. </p> <p>Are you thinking you'd wear these strictly for weekend or casual looks? </p>
