Tried on some of the other ones and they did fit me but they had a big elastic gusset at the back and looked a bit weird. Happily I picked up a pair of tan low wedges anyway so at least my trip wasnt wasted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135933 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 03:39:25 +0000 Theresa 135933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks girls - will definitely post pics when I get them! (You'll probably be sick of seeing them LOL).</p> <p>I feel like my winter wardrobe might be slowly coming together!!</p> <p>Katiepea there were lots and lots of boots there!</p> <p>Oh and as an added bonus, I just received the email telling me my new spec frames have been shipped from the US and should be here late next week!!!! then just to get the script checked and lenses put it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135912 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 03:12:58 +0000 bella 135912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a bit late but I am glad that you decided to get them. they are very pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135909 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 03:05:34 +0000 cciele 135909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad you got them! They fit you really well, and are classic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135859 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 01:07:56 +0000 Katiepea 135859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - they are fabulous! I may have to go in and have look - all the boots that I keep seeing that are leather are around the $120-$200 mark. That's a bargain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135852 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:26:32 +0000 Kristine 135852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like them! Simple is good, they're elegant and they'll last a long time without being dated. It's nice to have classic riding boots, then you can get a fun pair when you can swing it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135848 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:17:35 +0000 puffenstuff 135848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay Theresa!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135844 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:06:13 +0000 Theresa 135844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'm SUPER excited - I just went and put them on layby!!! They were the last size 7's in my little local Big W, so I'm really pleased I went today :D</p> <p>Puffenstuff they did have quite a few other pairs of shorter ones there (I didn't look too closely at them though), and there were a lot for around $40 ish... I'm quite surprised how many pairs of Big W shoes I have/like... Actually, a few years ago I bought a pair of the biggest possible kids shoes and they are still going strong 5 years later and often complimented LOL</p> <p>Thanks for all your opinions - at first I thought they were a bit plain, but now I realise that is a good thing because they will go with so much more.</p> <p>Can't wait... hopefully I should get them next week or the week after </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135835 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 23:01:56 +0000 puffenstuff 135835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them Theresa cant beleive they are from Big W! They have some nice shoes there in general at the moment and looks like they have some similar boots made by Grosby and they look a little shorter (may be more suitable for my 155cm height). I think I might have to go there this weekend......... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135684 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 13:56:56 +0000 rae 135684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them! The clean, simple design will go with everything, and I feel good about the elastic vents. You never know until you try them with some skinnies, but I think chances are good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135671 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 13:05:51 +0000 Dusty 135671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're great. They fit well and I think that vent will make them work with skinnies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135656 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 11:35:53 +0000 Lee Hovey 135656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love them!! I think they are great... the leather is plain, but I think there is enough other detailing to keep them interesting (like the curve at the top and the pull tabs), and that really is a great price for leather! I think you would get alot of wear out of them for sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135637 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 09:51:53 +0000 Inge 135637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Get them when you can Theresa! They look simple and elegant (something I very much appreciate in boots;-) and I think you're going to find them very versatile.</p> <p>Smiling about the picture taking process:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135631 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 09:26:24 +0000 Theresa 135631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://www.bigw.com.au/images/2010/women/Ladies-Leather-Boot.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.bigw.com.au/images/.....r-Boot.jpg</a></p> <p>This is the one from their website - not really front on, but you kind of get the idea - they are fairly plain.</p> <p>I didn't think to get a front on pic - cranky 3 year old with me and getting the two I got was enough trouble LOL</p> <p>The more I think about them, the more I like them though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135629 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 09:07:27 +0000 Inge 135629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them;-) How do they look from the front Theresa? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135621 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 08:28:43 +0000 Louise 135621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those look like they fit great x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-new-winter-boots#post-135619 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 08:12:00 +0000 Theresa 135619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have worked out I need a pair of flat boots for winter - I have black and brown boots with heels, but flats are far more practical and a definite hole. I've also decided Black is the best option because it goes with more in my wardrobe.</p> <p>Having said that though, I definitely want a pair of brown flat riding style boots eventually - but I like super nice leather for brown, whereas black I'm not so fussy about, so they are going to have to wait until my budget isn't so tight...</p> <p>Today I found this pair at Big W for $80, they are real leather which I think seems pretty good value for money (especially considering all the others in stores that I really liked are $200+...).</p> <p>What do you think? They fit really well, so my only concern was that they may be too tight with skinnies, but then I realised they had little elastic vents, so assume there is enough give there to accomodate skinnies... maybe?</p> <p><a href="http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/theresastales/New%20Purchases/P3170003_01.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i294.photobucket.com/al.....003_01.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/theresastales/New%20Purchases/P3170004_01.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i294.photobucket.com/al.....004_01.jpg</a></p> <p>I couldn't afford this straight away but I could layby them - I kind of feel like these will be my best chance of getting flat winter boots due to my budget, but don't want to buy them if everyone thinks they suck LOL</p> <p>THANKS!!! </p>
