Great purchase! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27809 Fri, 26 Sep 2008 06:08:35 +0000 Sihaya 27809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, I know you've been looking for a long time. I'm really glad you found these and they look so perfectly you. I can't wait to see pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27744 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 23:23:57 +0000 Anonymous 27744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh those are perfect!! I love them. They sound like a dream for comfort too.<br /> I already bought my pair of boots for the season. They are the Born Thicket. I haven't worn them yet. They are much more causal than these, being a riding boot style. If I were going to get a second pair I certainly look for these 'Cuties'. Good shopping Antje! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27713 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 20:37:13 +0000 marianne 27713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great boots, Antje! Congratulations on successful mission, boot search is so frustrating. Sorry to hear about your camera, but I still hope to see pictures soon.</p> <p>Sounds like a fun business trip! (I am jealous :)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27711 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 20:30:35 +0000 Antje 27711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Weird. San, I searched for them online just now but all the links to the "Mello Cutie" style go back to the Nordstrom site. I see them there. If this link doesn't work, either, have you searched for "Gentle Souls Mello Cutie" in this exact spelling? (It's such an odd style name...) It should work.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2979644/0~2376778~2372808~6007659~6007695?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6007695&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....5&#038;P=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27709 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 19:12:46 +0000 Anonymous 27709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's funny that I am getting a dead link, it's just black lettering. I want to see the boots too. I searched the Nordy's website but didn't see them there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27696 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 17:55:55 +0000 Patience 27696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boots are wonderful, Antje. I can't wait to see them on sassy you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27683 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 16:27:23 +0000 Sarah 27683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful boots, Antje. They look as smooth and soft as butter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27677 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 16:18:18 +0000 Antje 27677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicole, yes, we did indeed lose all of our vacation photos. We lost the camera (or rather, it fell down a waterfall at Glacier National Park) on the third to last day of the trip. We had taken all these amazing photos at Yellowstone and in Montana, it was quite heartbreaking. But hey, we have our memories... Fortunately, we spent part of the trip with extended family, so we can share some of their pictures.</p> <p>I'm going to Munich day after tomorrow for a quick business trip and will start on my fall-outfit-photo-session project after I get back, weekend after next. I also plan to capture some fashion notes from Munich, although I'll be there at the height of Octoberfest, so I might be surrounded by more Dirndls and Lederhosen than high style </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27643 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 14:34:07 +0000 Amanda 27643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking forward to the photos! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27627 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 13:30:56 +0000 Tanya 27627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Antje, the boots are totally gorgeous! And they look so you as well, I can picture you in my head wearing them with all of your funky outfits. Can't wait for the photos! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27612 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 11:13:48 +0000 Nicole 27612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, not only are those boots beautiful, but they are very you. They definitely have that Funky edge--but without being punky or too juvenile.</p> <p>Can't wait to see them on you! Did you lose all your vacation photos when you lost your camera? I hope not! That would stink! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27608 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 05:02:15 +0000 Antje 27608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea! I have a halter dress that I didn't even wear once this summer. I'll pack that for the Austin week.<br /> You can bring your layers, but don't forget an umbrella... (I have a hunch that you'll hurry back to Austin before the week is over ;-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27607 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 05:00:47 +0000 Ana 27607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We should institute a YLF exchange program. All you Seattlites can come down here for a week or two in August and wear all your summer stuff, and then we'll head up there and finally have a chance to layer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27606 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 04:55:57 +0000 Antje 27606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yippieh. Ana, yes, I will totally post pictures of the boots, as well as of some of the fall outfits I can't wait to wear. We lost our camera on vacation and finally got a new one this week, it's not even come out of the box yet... But I'm eager to have one again and look forward to posting outfits soon! The boots look great with my new pencil skirts, now I finally don't mourn the end of summer anymore </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27603 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 04:52:42 +0000 Angie 27603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER. I saw them on Antje when we tore around in her cupboard today. We had SUCH fun :-)</p> <p>The boots are an absolute no-brainer, perfect Seattle purchase. I can’t think of a frock or skirt you can’t wear them with, Antje. Bravo darling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27601 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 04:48:03 +0000 Ana 27601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those boots are beautiful, Antje! I really like the look of them, and the heel height is great.</p> <p>Will you post a photo of you in them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-found-the-perfect-pair-of-black-knee-high-boots#post-27595 Thu, 25 Sep 2008 04:40:43 +0000 Antje 27595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been searching for new black knee high boots to wear with skirts and dresses for weeks, and I think I found them: Gentle Souls "Mello Cutie" boots, available at Nordstrom (I got them online): (<a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2979644/0~2376778~2372808~6007659~6007695?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6007695&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....5&#038;P=1</a>)</p> <p>They are the most comfortable pair of boots I've EVER put on; I feel like I'm wearing socks, and I don't even feel the heel (which is pretty low anyway). Amazing. And best of all, they look super stylish. They are pull-on boots, very sleek and snug, and while they are quite simple they still have just enough of a funky edge to them to not make them boring. I'm absolutely thrilled. Angie was here when I tried them on and gave them a big thumbs up.</p> <p>I'm 99.9% sure that I'm keeping them (I'm still waiting for a package from Piperlime with 4 other pairs of black boots, but it's hard to imagine that another pair could trump the Gentle Souls in comfort and style.)</p> <p>At $350 they are not cheap, but the price seems absolutely worth it given the comfort level (I need 8+ hour boots and plan to wear these several times a week) and given that they are not "trendy" and will not go out of style. </p> <p>I'm very excited that the search will be over (either with this pair or in the offchance that there is something even better in the Piperlime stuff...) and wanted to recommend them to anyone who is looking for a pair of comfortable black knee high boots for dresses and skirts or under non-skinny pants. Yay! </p>
