They might work out if you tuck your jeans in. Otherwise, I'd keep looking. I get a lot of compliments on mine. They were so hard to find; not sure if they're still available. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859470 Thu, 09 Nov 2017 18:09:42 +0000 harmonica 1859470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smaller size grey dress is fab on you! Goes well with the grey boots too. You could try some over-knee socks if the gap is bothering you. Tall boots are hard to fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859452 Thu, 09 Nov 2017 16:26:25 +0000 The Cat 1859452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The small size dress fits perfectly. You look fab!</p> <p>The navy boots may seem a bit wide, but where I live, people wear all kind of boots many months of the year, and unless the boots look VERY wide, I don't notice. Choose whatever width you are comfortable with. Both pairs look nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859349 Thu, 09 Nov 2017 05:31:57 +0000 Dianna 1859349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One more vote for keeping the dress in the smaller size.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859121 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 15:04:56 +0000 Angie 1859121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No worries, grey boots work just fine, sweet <b>Janet.&nbsp;</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859117 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 15:00:08 +0000 Sara L. 1859117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The navy boots have too big of a gap if you're planning on wearing them with bare legs or tights.&nbsp; They might be okay with skinny jeans though.&nbsp; I have narrow calves and a hard time finding boots.&nbsp; Sometimes I compromise on that gap depending on how I intend to wear them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859115 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 14:52:27 +0000 JAileen 1859115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thank you.

Then I lost some weight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859095 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 14:04:13 +0000 Angie 1859095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smaller dress for sure. FABULOUS.&nbsp;</p> <p>Navy boots are ill-fitting. Grey boots are a little wide too - but you have those already, right?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859027 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 06:34:54 +0000 JAileen 1859027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for taking the time to offer your opinions. I'll return the larger dress and, sadly, the boots. </p> <p>Paula, I don't think my calves are particularly narrow. I have big feet, and manufacturers think I must be big and tall with these feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1859007 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 04:16:35 +0000 kellygirl 1859007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just gorgeous! Keep the smaller dress.

Love the idea of the navy boots but I think you should keep looking until you find ones that fit like the grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858981 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 02:52:53 +0000 karen13 1858981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Echo the consensus - smaller grey dress looks great! I think the gap at the top of the navy boots will bug you if you are planning on wearing agains les or hose. It might be okay if you were tucking in heavy tights or jeans </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858980 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 02:52:36 +0000 Anonymous 1858980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the grey boots as they are a little higher - and it's a little more interesting of a look than the darker ones - although now I see they are navy and not black. &nbsp;But I'm with whoever suggested above that you keep looking for boots - these look too big around your knee area. &nbsp;Dress is gorgeous on you - I'm so envious ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858976 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 02:46:48 +0000 krissy751 1858976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totes smaller dress...with the navy boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858969 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 02:29:38 +0000 Paula 1858969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm echoing everyone who thinks you look great in the smaller size. &nbsp;I don't care for the gap at the top of either pair of boots, and would suggest another choice. (I envy your narrow calves! :))</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858964 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 02:18:17 +0000 Suz 1858964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the grey dress on you! Go for smaller size. The boots are beautiful but for myself I would not like that big a gap. If it is any consolation I have had the same issue with Born boots.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858954 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 01:38:19 +0000 Carla 1858954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Grey dress in the smaller size with the grey boots, and grey tights. Navy boots are delicious, but not my first choice to go with the EF dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858952 Wed, 08 Nov 2017 01:33:58 +0000 Zibbets 1858952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smaller dress and gray boots are fab together! Those navy boots are gorgeous. Not sure about them with the dress, but it might be the lighting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858931 Tue, 07 Nov 2017 23:41:55 +0000 Jane 1858931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m in agreement, as I think the smaller dress too. I like snug fitting boots, so I would keep on looking. I really like the suede with the knitted dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858929 Tue, 07 Nov 2017 23:33:01 +0000 Nomad 1858929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for the smaller size. It looks great on you</p> <p>I echo rachylou's vote against gaps at the tops of boots if possible... but I've yet to find tall boots that don't have a gap when I wear them, so I'm fully sympathetic. Tights, tall socks, or boot cuffs might help fill the gap, though some options may make it look more casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858928 Tue, 07 Nov 2017 23:31:09 +0000 Elle 1858928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep the smaller size unless it feels uncomfortable when you move or sit.&nbsp; It looks great on you.&nbsp; I like the navy boots - a wonderful color.&nbsp; There is a gap but if you wear dark hose/tights, it won't be that noticeable.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858924 Tue, 07 Nov 2017 23:24:39 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1858924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Third vote for the smaller size dress. Wear it with the navy boots </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858889 Tue, 07 Nov 2017 19:19:10 +0000 always trying 1858889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bigger dress is definitely too big. the smaller size is a great fit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858882 Tue, 07 Nov 2017 18:50:16 +0000 rachylou 1858882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely the smaller size dress. Fits like a dream.</p> <p>Ps: I personally don’t like a gap at the top of my boots. It feels funny to me, when I walk. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-x-2-grey-wool-dress-navy-boots#post-1858878 Tue, 07 Nov 2017 18:38:38 +0000 JAileen 1858878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is EF, in grey wool. I was concerned that it would turn out to be brown, since that was how Nordstrom classified it, which I didn't realize until after I ordered it. The boots in question are Born navy suede. I'm also wearing a grey boot (Via Spiga) I bought last year for comparison.</p> <p>1-3 is the smaller size<br /> 4-6 is the larger size<br /> 7-9 shows the boots<br /> 10 is the dress and grey boot in sunshine. The dress is obviously grey.</p> <p>A.) What do you think of the dress? Which size dress should I keep, or should I return both?<br /> B) What do you think of the navy boots? Are they too big at the top?<br /> Please advise. Thank you!</p> <p>Here are the two items. Unfortunately, the dress is no longer on sale.</p> <p><a href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/eileen-fisher-ribbed-wool-sweater-dress/4668720?origin=category-personalizedsort&#038;fashioncolor=BARK" rel="nofollow">https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/e.....color=BARK</a></p> <p><a href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/born-avala-knee-high-boot-women/4716239?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&#038;fashioncolor=BLUE%2F%20NAVY%20WOOL%20COMBO" rel="nofollow">https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/b.....OL%20COMBO</a> </p>
