Yep, I have 5! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-808053 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:05:34 +0000 catgirl 808053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Duplication is in the foot of the beholder! Because I would see these two pairs as duplicates in my own wardrobe, whereas every one of a million pairs of black boots would be uniquely individual and much needed in my eyes. </p> <p>They are both beautiful, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-807972 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 20:38:23 +0000 Scarlet 807972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see it, Angie, but I wish you could explain it to my husband </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806783 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 17:07:38 +0000 Angie 806783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are the same height. No need to duplicate the same pants though if your hems are tapered </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806595 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 10:53:29 +0000 merwoman 806595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them both! Are the heels similar in height - they seem to be. I think it would be useful to duplicate favourite pants - with different hem lengths to accomodate footwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806498 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 02:31:04 +0000 Jaime 806498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am all for duplicating, but these seem quite different. The art is knowing which one to choose with which outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806470 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 01:09:26 +0000 Angie 806470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jules, as long as your style journey is fun and meaningful to you, there is no need to worry too much about the accuracy of labels and descriptions </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806463 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 01:00:22 +0000 Jules 806463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's probably just me, not the pics I have quite a bit of trouble labelling styles including my own or rather where I would like to go with it and what I admire in others. Still figuring it out and learning lots from your posts as well as everyone here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806416 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:17:16 +0000 Angie 806416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your husbands make me laugh :)</p> <p>Jules, the lizard boots are not distressed in the slightest. Quite sterile actually. Definitely crisp and not arty or RATE. I guess pics can be deceiving </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806405 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 23:57:28 +0000 Mochi 806405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just for the record, I showed the pics to my hubs and he COULD tell them apart. But then he started questioning why women like wearing patterns of "dangerous" animals like tigers, snakes and leopards when they probably wouldn't want to be around the actual animal :). Well I guess he has a point.</p> <p>ETA which also means that if I ever get these booties, he'll be making cracks about them. :-p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806381 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 23:08:35 +0000 Deborah 806381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thanks so much for this post. I wasn't implying that they were a duplicate but I couldn't put my finger on exactly what the differences were. Seeing them side by side is wonderful and the differences are much more obvious, and yes I understand your response on the blog about one being 'cool' and the other 'warm'. I also agree that with something you love and wear frequently a duplicaton of the same or similar item can be a very wise choice. I adore both of these! I am actually waiting on my bootie order (the black and white animial print)... they have arrived at the post office but wont' be ready for collection til later today.... and it's summer... and Im going to HAVE to wear them lol.</p> <p>Laura, love your comment...our hubby's could be brothers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806363 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 22:07:40 +0000 Laura 806363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This makes me chuckle. I am quite sure my husband would stare at this for a full minute and not see one iota of difference between the pairs. We stylish women, however, see two completely different boots. Vive la difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806343 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 21:32:50 +0000 Atlantia 806343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've always liked the look of the snake, but I adore the lizard! I think it is the extra dose of dark, and the way they come up just a touch higher on the ankle.<br /> Ooooh, I should not have opened this thread. My budget is done for shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806341 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 21:31:22 +0000 Mochi 806341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am madly in love with the lizard booties. And I'd only just said here that I was done with shoe buying for the winter season (I have one more pair on its way to me). If I could afford these I'd be seriously considering them, and will definitely stalk. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806340 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 21:31:15 +0000 Jules 806340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think they are duplicates for you, but perhaps similar from the perspective of someone with a much more limited wardrobe such as myself. But for you I totally get it. It helps that I think they're awesome.<br /> But I was surprised at the words you used to describe them such as 'crisp' - to me, and maybe it's just the photos, they look almost distressed ie/ ripped in an artful way - and combined with the bold graphic pattern infer a slightly downtown even RATE vibe, compared to the snakeskin that are more refined. Anyway - love them, and am always learning from your eye and experience where I have none! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806323 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 21:12:49 +0000 Suz 806323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have only had my snake booties for five days and it is too snowy to wear them outdoors, but I can already TOTALLY see duplicating them!! Love them! And these lizards to me are just enough different not to qualify as duplicates in the first place. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806321 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 21:09:49 +0000 texstyle 806321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think there are times when a similar item or duplication are exactly what is in order - esp. when you have great items like these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806306 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 20:16:23 +0000 Anonymous 806306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Day said it well. I've also been thinking of duplicating the snake and probably will if I can find a good discount. I've been not wearing mine when it's wet out to save them, even though they would be the best outfit choice. They have been sprayed for waterproofing but I still don't want to take a chance on shortening their life. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806301 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 20:05:25 +0000 RoseandJoan 806301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are not duplicates one pair is graphic and bold and the other muted and soft. </p> <p>I can see the conundrum in the morning though when deciding which boot to slip into. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806300 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 19:56:38 +0000 Kirti 806300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both! The lizard booties are a little more funky though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806294 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 19:47:46 +0000 Anonymous 806294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I see, we got our reptiles mixed up!<br /> Both booties are amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806279 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 19:20:30 +0000 rae 806279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, I love the lizard ones! Makes me want a pair despite my already having dalmatian booties, now that I see it is not a duplication. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806276 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 19:15:53 +0000 cheryl 806276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are both gorgeous and I want them lol! I couldn't pick a favorite as they both rock! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806268 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 19:01:00 +0000 Day Vies 806268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I purposely buy duplicates when I know I love something. It extends the enjoyment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806265 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 18:56:11 +0000 Angie 806265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) good observations. </p> <p>Just clarifying again that duplications make complete sense in some situations. I almost duplicated the snake skin by purchasing another exact same pair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806262 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 18:49:58 +0000 Day Vies 806262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the graphic detail on the snakeskin bootie is a bit more subtle. From a distance they read gray. The lizard, is boldly graphic -- and will always appear spotted. I think they echo one another but the lizard makes a bolder statement. They are both in the same vein but not a true duplication in my opinion. Love them both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806261 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 18:47:30 +0000 Sveta 806261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie for clarifying this for us. Yes, they are different enough to justify having them both.<br /> Jonesy would love these new ones...:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lizard-versus-snake-skin-booties#post-806255 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 18:39:25 +0000 Angie 806255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The question came up on the blog post this morning - that the booties were a duplication. As you can see they are quite different. That said a duplication would not have mattered either. I'm wearing my snakeskin booties into the ground. </p>
