They are very comfortable and very forgiving. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-683101 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 10:46:46 +0000 Anonymous 683101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a beautiful color on you! Love the boots too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-683098 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 10:42:44 +0000 April 683098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MPJ -- I may have missed an earlier conversation, but may I ask what brand your jeggings are? I have been interested in a pair only if they were fairly substantial, and it sounds like you're happy with these in that regard. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-683059 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 22:52:34 +0000 Vicki 683059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was doing a search and came upon you NAS post here. You did well with both items it's great hearing about the sweater size in comparison to your regular size. I loved seeing this color on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679554 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 17:02:07 +0000 JulieJohn 679554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks a bunch Pickle and Sarah for the encouragement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679521 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 16:24:00 +0000 rae 679521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray, a NAS score! It is so interesting to see how differently the boots fit our various forum members - they look like they were made for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679485 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 15:37:46 +0000 Ginny 679485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>great items, def. keepers!! I too glad to know jeggings are ok to wear with shorter tops too. I am with you I thought they were for bum covering too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679343 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 13:14:55 +0000 Lisa 679343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all items here and I even like the outfit as is, bum exposed and all. That bright color is divine on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679342 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 13:14:33 +0000 Anonymous 679342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent outfit! I love the sweater colour on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679324 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 12:47:14 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 679324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Transcona Shannon, cjh, Jamie, Jenava, Amy, Sarah- Thank you! I'm so glad the color is getting a good reception. I was prepared for the brightness by Angie cautioning me that it was not just a bright coral, it was "Angie-bright" - lol! Even so, I'm not used to wearing such a bright color. I think this will be most welcome on a chilly day. I am also pleased about the sizing - relaxed without looking sloppy. Angie was dead-on with her assessment of fit. The TTS size is snug and the size up is relaxed. Kind of nice to be able to choose which fit you prefer.</p> <p>christy, Janet, JulieJohn and Angie - I'm so relieved that these jeggings are not "leggings as pants"!!! I've always worn them with my (very small collection of) tunics, but now that I can wear them with shorter tops, my wardrobe possibilities are so much greater!!!</p> <p>sarah, KathyL - sarah, I went back and saw your k/r post - the boots look fantastic with the skirts, thank you for showing me! KathyL - thanks for the styling encouragement! :)</p> <p>Angie (again) - Yay for 10s! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679141 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 03:51:30 +0000 christy 679141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both items are fab! And honestly, this entire outfit is fab. These jeans are thick enough that they don't look at all like "leggings as pants". You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679140 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 03:48:02 +0000 Makrame 679140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice finds! Both items look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679096 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:55:48 +0000 KathyL 679096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are all so cute on you! I think these boots would look great with the halogen skirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679094 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:53:27 +0000 sarah 679094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MPJ - I posted them with a Halogen skirt - I most definitely plan to wear them that way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679083 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:42:23 +0000 Janet 679083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the top, jeans (well, they just look like skinnies to me!), and boots all look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679069 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:31:14 +0000 sarah 679069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous! If I had a bum like yours, I'd bare it too : )</p> <p>@JulieJohn - I have very muscular calves (15") and the boots work GREAT for me - they stretch, so give them a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679068 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:30:59 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 679068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JulieJohn - Haha - you made me laugh! I probably misspoke (or miswrote) - it's more the fact the jeggings have a faux-fly that bothers me than the rear view. They are a substantial fabrication, unlike some lighter weight denim-like leggings, or just plain old knit leggings, so I don't feel "pants-less," mind you!</p> <p>I have 13" calves, but I hear the stretchy material is a boon to a lot of different calf sizes. Try them!!! </p> <p>I guess I should try these with hose if I plan to pair them with skirts.</p> <p>Will these go with the Halogen pencil skirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679057 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:25:24 +0000 JulieJohn 679057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! May I ask if your calves are curvy? I am jonesing for the Blondo's, haven't made it yet to try them on. I have very muscular ballet calves 16". Just curious.</p> <p>Love the look, coral is your color. And never apologize for your bum, it's a good one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679056 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:25:20 +0000 Amy 679056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679051 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:22:47 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 679051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all! :)</p> <p>Angie - I always thought jeggings (with the stitched down fly) were to be styled with tunic-length tops? I'm not sure where I picked that up. I would happily pair the pullover with traditional skinnies (if I had any), but didn't realize it was okay to pair with my jeggings. Now that I know, my jeggings will get a lot more wear this winter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679048 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:20:37 +0000 Jenava 679048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them both. The color and fit on the sweater are great on you, and the boots look perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679043 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:14:07 +0000 Jamie 679043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in both - keep!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679042 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:13:33 +0000 cjh 679042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote is keep both. The sweater is lovely on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679041 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:13:04 +0000 Angie 679041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeggings are perfect with the pullover! *waving at my sweater twin*</p> <p>Both items are 10s. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679039 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:10:28 +0000 Transcona Shannon 679039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like that bright coral colour on you and the fit looks good. The boots are fab on you. I vote keep for both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-kr---blondo-boots-and-valette-sweater#post-679032 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:02:51 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 679032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are the Blondo boots and the very "Angie-bright" coral Valette sweater in size M.</p> <p>I compared the Blondo boots (size 10) to my size 9.5 Charles David 'Regiment' boots from last year's NAS, and they look to be the same size sole. I think the Blondos might just have a roomier toe box, but I think these are probably the right size for me.</p> <p>I am committing a slight faux pas in pairing my jeggings with a bum-baring sweater, but I really just wanted to throw on a few NAS items in one photo for expediency.</p> <p>Is the coral too bright for me? I tried a small as well, and they do fit snug. I thought the small was a tad skinchy through the arms. The medium has a nice relaxed fit, I think, and would allow me to layer a woven top underneath.</p> <p>What say all of you? </p>
