Lower heels are definitely harder to find than higher ones in "current" styles.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-lower-heeled-snakeskin-booties#post-2075998 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 17:12:46 +0000 slim cat 2075998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lower heeled booties are tough to hunt - still looking for more refined combat boots ( low heel, padding, not wintery warm ). Budget issue limits options too - probably will wait until more sales start happening in mid winter. Thank you everyone for posting info with pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-lower-heeled-snakeskin-booties#post-2075987 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 15:57:22 +0000 Greyscale 2075987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Madewell has a new low Chelsea boot. I committed to the Sam Edelman boots with a higher heel than I like - they’re ok but I might regret not looking for a lower heel.<br /> <a href="https://www.madewell.com/the-carina-boot-in-snake-embossed-leather-AE357.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.madewell.com/the-c.....AE357.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-lower-heeled-snakeskin-booties#post-2075966 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:45:17 +0000 Chris987 2075966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good to know <b>tammyw!</b> Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-lower-heeled-snakeskin-booties#post-2075965 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:44:51 +0000 tammyw 2075965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn’t think the pointed toe would work for me either but my stylist convinced me to try. Now I wear them often (I got black). I seriously love them enough to consider another color. I went up half a size. I have worn for hours without a complaint and I have finicky feet so I really had my doubts. They seem to be on big sale at Nordstrom right now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-lower-heeled-snakeskin-booties#post-2075957 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:35:22 +0000 Chris987 2075957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>tammyw</b>, I think I've looked at them online, but pointy toes like that usually don't work for me and their online descriptions say nothing about any padding at the insole so I've moved on. Maybe I should see if they are carried in a local Nordstrom and try them on next time I'm in the store. Good idea!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-lower-heeled-snakeskin-booties#post-2075955 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:30:35 +0000 tammyw 2075955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you looked at Marc Fisher Yale? I love them and they have multiple snakeskin colors! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-lower-heeled-snakeskin-booties#post-2075941 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 13:56:32 +0000 Chris987 2075941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Many of you may remember the recent fabber-love for the<u> <b><i>Blondo Elvina bootie</i></b></u> in a white/grey snakeskin. It's a top pick and the find was collected 34 times!</p> <p>I too love Blondo boots, and own three pairs. They are super comfortable, waterproof, warm, just perfect for my cold snowy winters. However, the 2" heel on the <i><b><u>Elvina</u></b></i><u>&nbsp;</u>is too high for me; I need a heel no more than 1-1/2" these days. The only Blondo booties I've seen this fall with&nbsp; that low a heel is the <u><b><i>Lidia</i></b></u><b><i>,</i></b> which I tried, but it did not fit right.&nbsp;</p> <p>So, I looked at other brands. I was a bit surprised at the slim pickin's of white/grey snakeskin booties with a lower heel. First I tried <u><i><b>Miz Mooz Belgica</b></i>.</u>&nbsp;It didn't fit right, and the outside zipper rubbed on my ankle bone which is an absolute deal breaker. I had some booties a few years ago with this issue and attaching a moleskin strip did not resolve it. It might work for someone with a slightly differently placed ankle bone. <i>Wow, talk about picky anatomical discussions! I know you fabbers get it :-)&nbsp;</i>&nbsp; The <b><i><u>Miz Mooz</u></i></b> is also a bit high at the front. </p> <p>I then went to the <i><b><u>Lucky Basel</u></b></i>, which I knew would fit because I have them in a cognac color. They are very comfortable and almost workhorses. I sized up in hopes of wearing socks with them, but after playing with several combinations of insoles I gave up and ordered my "usual" size to wear with nylon knee highs. This bootie can be found at Nordstrom, Macy's, Amazon, and Zappos, and if you do a google search you'll find other online sellers. It comes in several snakeskin colors (white/grey, taupe/grey, burgundy/black, olive/black), a leopard print and a camo print, plus several solids. Zappos seems to have the largest number of color/print choices. </p> <p>I'd love to find a bootie in a more Chelsea boot style, a little less western, but so far that's been a HEWI. I've tried a lot of different brands but nothing works so far. </p> <p>I tried three different snakeskin colors, but ultimately decided on the grey/white one. Once the right size arrives I will do some outfit creation. I found a bunch of things I already have that I think will work.... </p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/finds/collections/?collection=7936">https://youlookfab.com/finds/c.....ction=7936</a></p> <p>Finds: </p> <ol> <li>The <i><b><u>Lucky Basel in white/grey snakeskin</u></b></i></li> <li>...in dark red/black snakeskin</li> <li>...in taupe/grey snakeskin</li> <li>Miz Mooz Belciga</li> <li>Blondo Elvina (2" heel)...the one that started it all :-)</li> </ol>
