				<description>&#060;p&#062;OMG. Is this even a question????&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Angie brought these boots to our attention one day on a thread. I think they are awesome. They're the cousins to a pair of ink blue pointy toed boots that she, I, Shevia, and Susie all bought in the fall (and adore).&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;They look unbelievably good on you. Okay, so I have a major sugar eye for chelsea boots, especially cool ones. But these are fab.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;And &#060;b&#062;SO ARE YOUR LEATHER PANTS!&#060;/b&#062;!! I love that they are not skin tight on you but fit so nicely.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;C'mon LL,&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;You're telling me that someone who rocks dog sweaters, orange leather,&#038;nbsp;snake necklaces, and AMAZING looks from head to toe is thinking about this?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Please know,&#038;nbsp;I'm not being dismissive of your concerns. I have my own issues  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-wink icon-emoticon-wink "></span>  .&#038;nbsp;I just want to reassure you that the boots are GREAT and I don't see what you see.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I know exactly how you feel (I'm 5'4&#034; with size 9s...). I would not have thought anything about how your feet looked if you hadn't said anything. If the pointy toe isn't hindering your gait (I tend to trip a lot), then go for it! And if you still feel uncomfortable, you might also try the size down... I don't know the shape of your feet, but I very often size down in pointy shoes because the length of my foot is in my middle toe.&#038;nbsp;
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;They look good! I don't think they make your feet look excessively huge.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;They look good to me and not even- ultra pointy from what u can see in the pics, which is actually a plus in my book.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;No clown-like banana feet from where I'm standing either. I think they look great!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think that they are great! The only pics where I could kind of see what you are talking about are with your jeans, and only showing the lower half of your body, so there is a lot of contrast between the jeans and the shoes, but I suspect that in a full length photo of you in the same outfit, it would be just fine. I definitely don't see your feet as too big in any of the full length shots with the leather pants. Everything looks well balanced to me, and you look amazing!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Nope, they don't make your feet look ginormous. I think they look great on you...a statement shoe for sure, but a good one!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;So I recently bought these Zara boots online. They were EXACTLY what I've been looking for for quite some time:&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;High polish leather&#060;br /&#062;High ankle style&#060;br /&#062;Ultra pointy toe winkle picker style&#060;br /&#062;Chunky heel with a bit of height but not much (the heel is 1.75 inches)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I own a couple pairs of vintage winkle picker flats (and one kitten heel in two tone eggplant and beige)&#038;nbsp;and find that the slim profile type work fine for me even though they elongate the foot. These have a wider visual profile with the more loafer like styling of the seams up at the top (the boots themselves are not too wide for me they just have a wider visual profile). They also have a chunky architectural heel that it's hard to tell in the photos angles slightly backwards and outward from the heel base of the&#038;nbsp;boot.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So, when I first took them out and put them on my foot I said, holy cow! These make my feet look ginormous compared to my height. (mind you, I was wearing pajama bottoms and just holding the pant leg up to check them out). Even my boyfriend said they are definitely a statement boot in that regard.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;This is the style for the most part but I have a hard time when I feel like a shoe makes me look like I have giant clown feet. Being not even 5 feet tall and having a shoe size (on my left foot anyway) that is already considered a bit large for someone my height (my foot has recently changed size&#038;nbsp;and I now wear between a 6.5 and 7 depending on maker. I used to wear a size 6) I fear I'm probably hyper-sensitive to this and may simply see giant banana boat feet on any shoe that I feel makes my feet look big, even if it doesn't to others.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So this morning I tried the boots with a few different pant styles I'd be wearing them with (I didn't fully style them I just threw on a leopard tee and tried them with my cuffed, slightly slimmer cut AG stilt crop BF jeans as well as my Isabel Marant cropped leather pants (recently shortened and tapered). I also tried them with black leather skinny fit pants&#038;nbsp;and regular dark wash skinny jeans&#038;nbsp;(not shown. My photo-taking BF was still asleep when I started this whole analysis so I was doing a crappy job of trying to shoot into a mirror, while dark out, and not having the flash blow out the picture too much).&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;By the time I was wrapping up, though, he was up and took the last couple shots in the marant leather pants --I think those give you the best view of a full length profile so you can compare proportion of foot to overall height.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I just can't decide whether they work or I'm being hyper-sensitive.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;In every other regard I'm happy with them.&#038;nbsp;The boots are much higher quality and better made than I expected. Once I put an innersole in them they were rather comfy, too. The size is correct (my toes aren't squished). So it really is the profile I can't decide on.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So please be honest. Do these make my feet look ginormous? Is the profile unflattering and too &#034;clown-like&#034; in size?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Forgive the utter crappiness of the pics and my grayed out face. I was not even remotely caffeinated and looked a mess so didn't want to scare anyone.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I've included a product shot of the boot from the website so you can see a better view of the style of boot.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Opinions and thoughts would be very greatly appreciated!
