I just wasn't inspired to go out walking and shooting, and I ended up spending most of the day processing images on my computer. Nonetheless, my Fitbit tells me I walked about 2.5 miles in these boots. I would definitely keep them for days like this -- my feet were not hurting at the end of the day, but I was glad I wasn't walking more by the time I got to my car in the evening, after walking to grab some dinner. They're not bad, but they're not the most walkable thing in my closet. The thought occurred to me that it would be difficult to run in these (hey, I walk around downtown Baltimore a lot, even at night, so you can't help but think of these things). </p> <p>So bottom line, the boots are staying. Good thing, because I do still like them.</p> <p>Thanks for all the lovely compliments, friends! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1389128 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 01:17:57 +0000 Elly 1389128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this on you-- of course, your pendant is gorgeous and so are the boots (although they do look high)-- but I love the navy turtle on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1389103 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 00:51:44 +0000 Jeanie 1389103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why did this turtleneck not look like this on me! &nbsp;It looks great on you and the fabric is so cozy, isn't it? &nbsp;I bet the turquoise will look really great on you. &nbsp;I get you on the jaw line thing. &nbsp;I try not to emphasize that area on myself but I can't resist wearing my cozy turtlenecks. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1389072 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 00:27:23 +0000 Style Fan 1389072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!&nbsp; What jaw issue?&nbsp; Love this colour palette on you.&nbsp; You have the best jewellery.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1389064 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 00:19:09 +0000 Meggie 1389064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed! Very Nice! Also, love your hair and make up. The boots are great. Very sassy heel. Were you able to wear them all day?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1389058 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 00:07:14 +0000 Jjsloane 1389058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are gorgeous and only you see the flaws.

You look sensational.&nbsp;</p> <p>And as for going around all day smiling like an idiot, if it will take 10 years off my face, I will do it. I share a horror of my unsmiling face in the mirror. I do not recognize it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388957 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:07:32 +0000 Astrid 1388957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look stunning!

Hope the boots work they look great </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388879 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:48:06 +0000 ElleH 1388879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfit &amp; the turtle neck on you. I don't see your jawline as a problem, though I do see what you're talking about in the non-smiling pic. Did you used to like yourself in turtle necks? I've never like myself in them, even when I was very young so perhaps it is not an aging thing at all. I even have a long neck, which should be suited to this style. I do have a wide square jaw though, which you don't, so maybe that is why I don't like it on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388848 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:27:28 +0000 CocoLion 1388848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Edited --&nbsp;You look gorgeous in navy and in this turtleneck. &nbsp;I'm glad you got the turquoise one, do not worry about jawline issues, they're in your head.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388845 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:10:58 +0000 Jem 1388845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look beautiful in *all* of your pictures! &nbsp;And, I love your outfit. &nbsp;You may feel more comfortable in a lighter color turtleneck because then it wouldn't be as much of&nbsp;a contrast with your face? &nbsp;Black can be a little harsh right up close to your face for a lot of people (although I still think you look fab!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388808 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 19:26:19 +0000 texstyle 1388808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit looks fantastic on you Janet. Katherine Hepburn and many other beautiful ladies like you wore t-necks their whole life - a slight jawline change is just something most everyone will have as we age - and it's in no way unattractive to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388807 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 19:26:11 +0000 Gracie 1388807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are beautiful, smile or not, but I agree that a smile is our best accessory to uplift our features. The outfit looks great, I like it with that mot jacket. I'm slowly trading my turtlenecks for softer necklines, like cowl or turtlenecks that stay away from the neck a bit more, otherwise, they pull on my softening neck skin and jaw – not pretty! For warmth I then rely on scarves.&nbsp; I'll be following your high-heels tests as I've been discarding some of mine, slowly. My highest right now is 3" – stacked is good, stilettos, iffy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388801 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 19:18:58 +0000 Janet 1388801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, I pulled the trigger and bought the turquoise turtleneck too. I love the color, and this is such an easy, comfortable top! And a good deal as well.</p> <p>Aw, you all are too kind. If I post a totally unsmiling pic, you'll see it, trust me. Smiling takes 10 years off my face, despite the fact that it crinkles up my eyes. But I can't exactly go around grinning like an idiot all the time! Pic is below -- it will self-destruct shortly. :-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388785 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 19:02:46 +0000 columbine(erin) 1388785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote get the turquoise, too! You look fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388767 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 18:38:59 +0000 Keturah 1388767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely perfect on you!!! You look gorgeous. It's an easy and relaxed look, but still beautiful and polished. </p> <p>Those boots are heavenly!! I hope they make it all day long on your feet </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388747 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 18:14:37 +0000 catgirl 1388747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're off your rocker, lady!&nbsp; This looks fantastic.&nbsp; No jaw issues at all to be seen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388741 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 18:01:57 +0000 Sal 1388741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this very much, so flattering on you. I can't see the jawline issue at all. What is the verdict on the boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388715 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 17:28:38 +0000 jackiec 1388715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What?! You look amazing! I do not see any issue with the neckline. In fact I'm drooling over that tneck b/c I missed it on JCrew. Thought I had it, then they cancelled my order. Boo!</p> <p>Your entire outfit looks amazing. Fun boots, love the pendant, and the jacket on top is edgy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388661 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 16:26:46 +0000 Anonymous 1388661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not at all fond of my jawline in turtle necks. I walk around with a fixed grin to negate the effect !&nbsp;You, however, look great! I love the strong elegance of this outfit and your boots look great. Good back up plan though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388656 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 16:21:54 +0000 Inge 1388656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab outfit, Janet, and I really see no problem at all with the turtleneck styles on you. I have this pullover in navy and in turquoise, and love them too. The turquoise would be stunning with your eyes, I vote go get one;-)<br />Oh, and I like the necklace length as is (beautiful piece, by the way), but understand that this is very much personal preference, and shorter length will be good too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388629 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 16:00:16 +0000 kellygirl 1388629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! This is gorgeous. You guys are killing me with your "real" life outfits. So stunning. I think you look terrific in the t-neck. I see no drooping whatsoever. Totally hear you on the heels. I picked up a couple of booties with lower heels precisely because my feet aren't tolerating heels like they used to. I am slowly weeding out the pairs that aren't all day comfy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388622 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 15:55:00 +0000 Angie 1388622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Simply Stunning. K-word worthy for sure. And good job having back-up boots in the car. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388621 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 15:53:40 +0000 PalmFronds 1388621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh I LOVE this palette on you! Another of your looks I am going to have to copy The turtleneck looks fab I think, and the color is wonderful next to your face.I don't think you have a drooping jawline, what are you talking about lovely lady?!? You look truly fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pmwiw---navy-turtleneck-tall-boots#post-1388617 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 15:50:52 +0000 Janet 1388617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As per Denise's WIW challenge...</p> <p>I'm also on a bit of a self-imposed challenge to see if my higher heels are working for me for an active day. These Frye boots are on the high end of my walkable heel heights -- about 3.25". They have a sturdy, chunky heel, which helps, but it's still quite a bit of heel for all-day wear. I'm throwing another pair of lower heel boots in my car, just in case I go shooting photos and walking a bunch, and my feet start talking to me. </p> <p>Debuting the JCrew merino turtleneck. It's really comfy and a nice weight, and I love the drape. I fear turtlenecks are not my best neckline because they seem to call more attention to my drooping jawline. I smile in my photos so it's less obvious, but it's a sad truth of my aging process. I was thinking of ordering this in the turquoise, thinking a lighter color may be more flattering too, but maybe I should stick mainly with other necklines. What do you think? JFE or to be avoided in the future? </p> <p>I love this necklace but I want to shorten the chain - it's a bit long for my preference.</p> <p>Just throwing on my old Theory navy twill moto for outerwear today. </p> <p>Feedback welcome! </p>
