Not me certainly!&nbsp;</p> <p>I think if you wear boots a lot, then have the variety you need to flex your wardrobe muscle. &nbsp;This is not a waste of money by any means. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080253 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 23:47:28 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1080253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Pame - I have pretty fussy feet, and these are all very comfy for me. If I was going to run a marathon, or even spend all day on my feet&nbsp;at a theme park or something, I'd probably wear some nice Danskos instead. But these are all definitely comfy enough for a long shopping day, a walk to the coffee shop and back, etc.&nbsp;</p> <p>@bj - Macy's!

Looking forward to seeing them take center stage in some outfit posts! I don't remember wearing boots all that much before finding YLF, but now I can't imagine my wardrobe without them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080204 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 22:21:28 +0000 Pame 1080204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Holy crud! I pay well over two hundred just for one pair of boots! You are a definite bargain shopper! The boots are super cute, how comfy are they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080197 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 22:13:08 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1080197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@mtgirl - thanks! that's super cute!&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, I couldn't resist wearing the grey&nbsp;boots on a quick run to the grocery store, with my new winter coat. No makeup face edited out for your own good. Ha ha.&nbsp;</p> <p>Am I delusional to think there really isn't appreciable leg stumpifying happening here? I mean, I guess my legs have looked thinner/longer, but I don't think this is horribly unflattering.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080193 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 22:05:22 +0000 Anonymous 1080193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't wear OTK boots, but I think this outfit is cute!</p> <p><a href="http://www.kendieveryday.com/2013/11/calypso-cares.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.kendieveryday.com/2.....cares.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080188 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 21:55:21 +0000 gryffin 1080188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well you are preaching to the "boot" choir over here!!&nbsp; Awesome score at that price.&nbsp; Also boots will last longer if they get a rest between wears so you should feel virtuous for switching them out!!&nbsp; I really like them all and I hope you really enjoy wearing them!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080175 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 21:39:42 +0000 shedev 1080175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the boot candy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080157 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 20:59:03 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1080157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@DonnaF - the 2 OTK pairs were on sale from $100 down to $60, add a 20% off coupon, and they were only about $50 a pair. The motos were on sale for $20 a pair, and the riding boots were on sale for $35. &nbsp;I got both pairs of&nbsp;motos at Wet Seal, since&nbsp;the last pair of motos I got there 5+ years ago has&nbsp;finally started showing cracks, after constant wear 3+ days a week. I was shocked to find that they wore like iron (I paid $7 for those), so I took the gamble on these 2 pairs even though it's not a "quality" brand.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hooray for bargains!&nbsp;</p> <p>@Lisa - ohh, I'd never considered tucking a fuller pant leg. Do you have any pictures of that look? I'd definitely like to see if it's something I could wear.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Una - yes, you are one of our reigning boot queens. I was actually trying to remember when I posted this if you have any OTKs. I don't recall seeing any.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080141 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 20:38:42 +0000 Lisa 1080141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous new boots.&nbsp; I like tall boots tucked into skinnies best.&nbsp; But shorter boots I find work well both with skinnies and bootcut jeans.&nbsp; But a new favorite pairing I've seen is them tucked into a baggier jean suck as a boyfriend jean.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080130 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 20:30:13 +0000 DonnaF 1080130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FIVE for $175?!?&nbsp; How does that happen?&nbsp; Those moto boots are quite different:&nbsp; One has silver studs and the other has gold ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080098 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 19:09:19 +0000 catgirl 1080098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hold on, you got all 5 pairs of boots for that price?&nbsp; I was ready to say you got away cheap for one pair!&nbsp; Amazing.&nbsp; Let's see them in action!</p> <p>Just about all my WIWs with footwear are boots... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080091 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 18:53:26 +0000 LACeleste 1080091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic! &nbsp;You are ready for anything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080085 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 18:41:55 +0000 Kristin L 1080085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice.

Congratulations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-spent-175-on-boots#post-1080070 Sat, 09 Nov 2013 18:07:56 +0000 FlorenceFearne 1080070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>... and came back with these! I had a boot-a-palooza, a boot binge, a boot-stravaganza! I'm pretty sure I need to cut myself off now. But I came to the realization that I strongly prefer boots to shoes, all year round. I wore my last 2 pairs literally to pieces, so I decided to get an actual boot wardrobe with some variety. (Yes, for me 4 kinds of black does constitute variety.)&nbsp;</p> <p>I know the fact that I bought 2 pair&nbsp;of the identical boots and then 2 nearly identical pairs will raise some eyebrows, but I also know they are the styles I wear constantly. Finding the right combination of cute, budget friendly, and flattering to my non-existant calves is not easy,&nbsp;so when the stars lined up, I pulled the trigger.</p> <p>Now that I have a boot wardrobe, I'm wondering if anyone else wants to chip in with their favorite way to style their boots, especially the OTKs. Or even just post&nbsp;pics wearing their boots, since I love to see the variety of different styles represented here. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>#1-2, OTK boots in black AND grey, #3 studded motos, #4 slightly different studded motos, #5 riding boots&nbsp; </p>
