I noticed the toes first. They are kinda neat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808640 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 15:59:03 +0000 cjh 808640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haven't read a single response above, but you asked for first response. Mine is "nasty." ???? Some people might like that, and it might look good on them. Nowhere near my own style or taste. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808635 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 15:56:42 +0000 cheryl 808635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't read any other responses yet but my word is "witchy" Thats not necessarily a bad thing. I think they are very interesting and I could have fun wearing them, lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808513 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 11:35:34 +0000 Mochi 808513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like them, by the way, and don't find them too out there. (And screw the whole soccer mom aesthetic). And most importantly, your hubs is totally behind you here! How could you go wrong! I like the black and burgundy equally, so whichever color works for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808455 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 07:12:15 +0000 Hil 808455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like what Deborah said - they're statement shoes. And I think they're very cool. If I wore them, then I would make sure the rest of the outfit is kinda understated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808451 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 06:58:53 +0000 Deborah 808451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Statement! I think these will look much better on the feet in a outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808436 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 05:54:51 +0000 krishnidoux 808436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Unusual, avant-garde, unique. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808434 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 05:50:54 +0000 Ginkgo 808434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Every time I look at the shoes, I like them more. Since you wear a lot of navy, gray and denim, the burgundy ones would be versatile.</p> <p>And referencing the other thread about "cuteness", these shoes would definitely take care of that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/3#post-808401 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 04:29:00 +0000 Aziraphale 808401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, "kind of trannie". You are SO RIGHT! That's the other thing they remind me of. Hahahaa!</p> <p>More positive reviews. Interesting. Thank you all for chiming in -- your first impressions were what I was after!</p> <p>Ariadne, sorry, I don't do pictures, I'm just not comfortable with it. Often I'm tempted, and I definitely enjoy looking at other people's WIW, but I feel weird about having pictures of myself out there. I'm uncomfortable enough when I get tagged on Facebook.</p> <p>Maybe one day. I've toyed with the idea of just posting WIW drawings, but that kind of thing takes time, so it hasn't happened yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808395 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 04:22:34 +0000 Girl X 808395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In case it's unclear, vampire pirate is totally a positive thing - go for the heroin!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808386 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 04:11:21 +0000 Anonymous 808386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your drug argument on page 1 won me over.

Period. 808242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Suz: Wicked! </p> <p>I like them and I bet they look softer on. I've notice that often Fluevogs are hard to pin down. Some look better in photos, some look bleh but look thunderstruck awesome on. Any chance of an on the foot photo? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808217 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 01:09:54 +0000 Aziraphale 808217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mick Jagger and Keith Richards? Still not a turnoff...</p> <p>Maybe I *should* try the burgundy ones. Just to see. I'm not actually paying for them, as I have a gift certificate (generous in-laws!) so the money has already been spent. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808210 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 00:58:07 +0000 DonnaF 808210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hammertoes, Mick J., &amp; Keith R. came to mind when I saw the black ones. IMHO, the burgundy ones are more interesting (as long as you're paying that much!) and actually might *go* with just as much. I'd love to see them on, as I've heard that Vogs are more flattering on than one might expect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808203 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 00:49:32 +0000 Aziraphale 808203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Reminiscent of Darth Vader and Edward Scissorhands....hmm, neither association is a turnoff... :-)</p> <p>Although, hehe, Alicat, "orthopedic" is not the exact look I'm going for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808191 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 00:38:17 +0000 pil 808191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not an adjective, but Edward Scissorhands comes to mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808185 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 00:26:45 +0000 Anonymous 808185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, "hammertoes" isn't an adjective. That's just the first thing that popped into my head. I could imagine someone with hammertoes finding them really comfortable! I have terrible feet, though, so my perceptions are skewed. I guess they look vaguely orthopedic to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808145 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:35:55 +0000 Aziraphale 808145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No worries, Julie. Do you not have something similar in the UK?</p> <p>So, I think the bottom line is, these boots are polarizing. Most of the responses have been in the "urgh, awful" category (weird, contrived, reminiscent of hooves, hammertoes, or vultures! etc), but the ones that were positive were enthusiastically so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808136 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:30:34 +0000 Susie 808136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I seriously looked at them recently. I love everything about them, except the toe. But I think I could grow to like even that part. I would love to see them on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808132 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:26:51 +0000 moira 808132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Odd. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808120 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:11:00 +0000 RoseandJoan 808120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Elisabeth! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808115 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:07:17 +0000 D'Ellen 808115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Darth Vader-esque </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick----first-adjective-that-springs-to-mind/page/2#post-808085 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:33:05 +0000 Caro in Oz 808085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Contrived - too much, too stiff looking. </p>
