So fab. I was eyeing the navy. But I like how these are an almost nude for you.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love #2 as well, but I am a sucker for that taupe!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-985102 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 16:14:20 +0000 AviaMariah 985102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae - I'm determined to give #2 a good try before I decide whether to keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-985101 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 16:12:20 +0000 rae 985101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, love the first ones on! Great pump alternative. #2 are really fab casual boots, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-985098 Fri, 19 Jul 2013 16:10:43 +0000 AviaMariah 985098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bumping this up for rachylou who wanted to see pics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-984255 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 21:09:58 +0000 Susie 984255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been guilty of that too! </p> <p>I had been looking for a navy shoe in the spring and tried several that didn't work so I was excited when I saw these.&nbsp;I love booties. I think they will work well for jeans </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-984231 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 20:47:12 +0000 AviaMariah 984231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susie - I impulsively put them in my cart &nbsp;after you said you ordered them!! &nbsp;Yes my regular size worked. &nbsp;They are a little loose in the heel for me but I don't think that will be a problem since the bootie shape holds them on and I can always add some padding&nbsp;to the heel. &nbsp;I have not worn them around the house yet but I was immediately impressed by their comfort and that is not an easy feat for me. &nbsp;I added the navy to my wish list.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-984107 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 18:49:09 +0000 Susie 984107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered the Vive bootie in navy so I'm glad to hear that you like it. Did your regular size work for you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-984032 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 17:41:05 +0000 AviaMariah 984032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>rachylou - I'll try to post pics by this weekend for sure. &nbsp;I think they could really go either way as far as dressy/casual. &nbsp;I'd say they are a little more refined that a lot of boots out there so that dresses them up a little and also the gold detailing. &nbsp;I think they'd work well with boot cut dress slacks for work which is probably why I will keep them if I do. &nbsp;I think some boots look to "clunky" for more basic work wear. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-984015 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 17:33:36 +0000 rachylou 984015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to say, I really like Vince Camuto booties in general and esp. the ones you picked. What a lovely soft caramel.</p> <p>It would be cool if you get around to pics of the Renton. I like the shape but am unsure about the suede aspect. I'm not sure how casual they read. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-984013 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 17:32:26 +0000 CocoLion 984013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just ordered these by DV because I wanted double points before they end tonight.<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/dv-by-dolce-vita-carlin-boot/3540209?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=497&amp;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-searchresults-_-1_2_B">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/dv.....onalizedso</a></p> <p>Does anyone have any experience with them? &nbsp;I wanted a pair of lower vamp booties with a chunky heel to replace some old ones.</p> <p>Aside from some accessories and a bra, this was my only NAS purchase. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-983993 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 17:20:04 +0000 nancylee 983993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the rundown, Avia (and the hint&nbsp;at your list, Angie!). &nbsp;Vince Camuto has done no wrong in my book over the past couple of years, so I might have to check out those "Vives." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-983954 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 16:56:55 +0000 AviaMariah 983954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie! &nbsp;I think I'm actually going to be able to slip into a Nordie's this evening so I may try those!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-boot-review-from-nas#post-983934 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 16:46:03 +0000 Angie 983934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first two booties you linked to - the VC Vive and the Renton - are on my top picks list.
