It's great as it can mix with both warmer and cooler tones. I find your legs super long and beautiful, and you can totally rock these booties. Since low heels are new for you, you may need to play around with your tops' bottom hems to re-adjust proportions. Like tuck, untuck, fitter, looser, etc.&nbsp;&nbsp;These would look gorgeous with your bomber jacket for example.&nbsp;</p> <p>These are totally in and a VERY good buy. Please keep. You didn't pay a fortune for them, so you won't feel bad;&nbsp;&nbsp;you may grow into the style, slowly. Give yourself the time. It is very understated chic, which is even more chic than chic. Without being over the top chic, YKWIM? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941683 Sat, 25 May 2013 21:24:51 +0000 Sveta 941683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excuse me, what do you mean by "short and stumpy"? Your legs are proportionally long so not stumpiness I can see.<br />I like the booties very much so if they are comfortable&nbsp; - keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941662 Sat, 25 May 2013 20:43:33 +0000 Debra 941662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these look great on you, no they really fit with your style.<br /> For anything metal that's sticking...graphite powder is the way to go, it can be messy though, you only need a dot. Great for door keys too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941654 Sat, 25 May 2013 20:35:08 +0000 Nicole D 941654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the colour is a classic. &nbsp;I have a couple of sticky zipper boots, they are something I can deal with. &nbsp;KEEP! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941636 Sat, 25 May 2013 20:06:46 +0000 CocoLion 941636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for commenting Angie. &nbsp;You know, I've always thought the cap sleeve widened my shoulder line. &nbsp;And maybe with a bateau neckline it works, but you are right, with a deep scoop neck like this one I look droopy.</p> <p>Still considering the booties. &nbsp;Still not sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941528 Sat, 25 May 2013 16:19:05 +0000 Angie 941528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>#1 and #3 are NOT STUMPY</b>. You created a lovely long line by half tucking. KILLER looks to my eye. Well done :)</p> <p>I like #2 a little less because I don't find that style of sleeve and neckline the best match for a dainty shoulder line - which you and I both have. The palette is pretty though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941314 Sat, 25 May 2013 04:49:47 +0000 rae 941314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them, too! I don't see any stumpification. Maybe the pointy toe helps with that? I second the idea of waxing up the zipper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941268 Sat, 25 May 2013 03:01:50 +0000 Janet 941268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I honestly see no stumpifying whatsoever. If you can get the zipper sorted out, I say these deserve a spot in your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941265 Sat, 25 May 2013 02:56:08 +0000 Sarah A 941265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these looks great. It's about my favorite heel height and i see no stumpyfying. Like others, I think the zipper need to work properly all the way to be a keep. I am off to check the link for my size though! ETA: which isnt available boo :(</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941238 Sat, 25 May 2013 02:22:07 +0000 Adelfa 941238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them on you, a lot. Aren't you saying that the zipper zips when your foot is not in it? So it's not that the zipper is broken but that the shoe is cut too narrow for your foot for the zipper to zip? If that's the case then you don't have a breakage issue but a fit issue. Then it would be up to you if you want that. I sometimes get sandals that are a touch too narrow. </p> <p>How stumpy do you feel in them? If the answer is "really stumpy" then it may not matter that the rest of us think you look great in them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941218 Sat, 25 May 2013 01:47:44 +0000 Anonymous 941218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, with the caveat the zipper has to work properly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941213 Sat, 25 May 2013 01:39:06 +0000 Karie 941213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the booties look great, but the zipper would be a deal breaker for me. I would take them to the cobbler for an opinion, but if it can't be easily fixed, I'd return them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941102 Fri, 24 May 2013 22:29:04 +0000 Glory 941102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them and think they could work well. I would try some home repairs for the zipper to see if you can budge it. If not, I vote return </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941098 Fri, 24 May 2013 22:18:26 +0000 ElleH 941098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them, including the colour but if you don't &amp; if you have more time to use the credit another way then maybe you should wait for PPP. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941088 Fri, 24 May 2013 22:09:07 +0000 Caro in Oz 941088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look great on you &amp; work well with your hair imo. You do NOT look&nbsp;stumpy - honestly. I'm with the others though on the&nbsp;zipper - if it&nbsp;can't be fixed return them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941087 Fri, 24 May 2013 22:08:32 +0000 Missey 941087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Particularly love the third look...no stump!&nbsp; Have you tried rubbing candle wax or bees wax on the zipper to lubricate the zipper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941083 Fri, 24 May 2013 22:07:59 +0000 Missey 941083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Particularly love the third look...no stump!&nbsp; Have you tried rubbing candle wax or bees wax on the zipper to lubricate the zipper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941080 Fri, 24 May 2013 22:03:13 +0000 Lyn D. 941080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them Denise, and the pointy toe is leg lengthening and flattering! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941078 Fri, 24 May 2013 22:02:16 +0000 rachylou 941078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ya, the zipper thing would eat away at me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941069 Fri, 24 May 2013 21:53:16 +0000 Suz 941069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1. I see no stumpage.&nbsp;</p> <p>2. They look like elf boots. In a good way!</p> <p>3. If the zip can't be fixed, good looks aside, that is a deal-breaker. But take them to a cobbler to see. It's worth it for the quality/ price/ looks combo you have there.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941031 Fri, 24 May 2013 21:09:22 +0000 Anonymous 941031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Umm. deal breaker for me. I vote return unless you want to take them to the cobbler for an opinion. What about a little home based fix?</p> <p><a href="http://voices.yahoo.com/tips-lubricating-sticky-zipper-3451598.html" rel="nofollow">http://voices.yahoo.com/tips-l.....51598.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941030 Fri, 24 May 2013 21:08:05 +0000 annagybe 941030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them on you. Can you walk in the OK with the zipper only partially done? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941027 Fri, 24 May 2013 20:57:30 +0000 CocoLion 941027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zap, &nbsp;I can pull 3/4 of the way up but find it's better to leave that left shoe partially unzipped so I don't have to struggle. &nbsp;They don't have any others left in my size. &nbsp;I can zip them shut when not wearing them. &nbsp;I guess I'm afraid to force the zipper. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941022 Fri, 24 May 2013 20:46:56 +0000 Anonymous 941022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute, I really like them. Is the zipper damaged or just hard to zip? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---joes-jeans-rocker-booties#post-941021 Fri, 24 May 2013 20:42:29 +0000 CocoLion 941021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1). &nbsp;They were an impulse purchase, using up a store credit.<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.djpremium.com/shop/G1-V68492-R54334-P1445713/joes-jeans/dahlia-bootie.html">http://www.djpremium.com/shop/.....ootie.html</a><br />Is this a mistake.</p> <p>2). &nbsp;I never wear such low heels! &nbsp;I think I look short and stumpy with a heel this low (.5 inches). &nbsp;So -- this is out of my comfort zone.</p> <p>3). &nbsp;Is this a weird color? &nbsp;It's neither light nor dark, so in a no-mans-land as far as styling goes.</p> <p>4). &nbsp;There is a sticky zipper on the left shoe.</p> <p>5). &nbsp;VERY high quality for $60 (had a 20% coupon) plus tax. &nbsp;Leather soles. &nbsp;Very good fit and comfort. &nbsp;Love the pointy toe.</p> <p>What say you? &nbsp;Do these deserve a place in my wardrobe? &nbsp;Should I go outside my comfort zone and risk a bit less figure flattery with these no-heel shoes?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
