I'm a big fan of that 12" calf! I need the calves as small as humanly possible if I'm going to wear them with skirts, since I don't have the added bulk from my jeans.</p> <p>Nicole, those are the ones Ana and I were talking about. The black crinkle patent is pretty spectacular and I love the mary jane illusion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20268 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 15:27:54 +0000 Sarah 20268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely. Let's go boot shopping together....like in November. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20266 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 15:18:58 +0000 Ana 20266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, I was planning on buying the Tahras in black and brown (eventually, hee hee) to wear over jeans, since I wear pants most often, and then buying the Tailors in crinkle black patent to wear with skirts and dresses. I think the LCs will be perfect for Austin's very rainy winters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20263 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 15:14:17 +0000 Sarah 20263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have had my eyes on the Tahra. I'm afraid that I'll need two pair if I plan on wearing boots over jeans as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20235 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 14:11:36 +0000 Ana 20235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray Nicole! You found my boots! Thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20231 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 13:55:35 +0000 Tanya 20231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Maya, maybe you'll like these:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2992912/0~2376778~6017238?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6017238&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....8&#038;P=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20220 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 11:02:17 +0000 Nicole 20220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, how do you feel about waterproof suede?</p> <p>These are VERY similar to your favorites:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2942634/0~2376778~2372811~2382930?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=2382930&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....0&#038;P=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20218 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 05:39:08 +0000 Ana 20218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's great, Maya. Thanks for the update. I'll also let you know if I see the Trixie anywhere else. The Tailor in black crinkle patent is my plan for a skirt/dress boot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20217 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 05:33:16 +0000 Maya 20217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just noticed this little note on the front page:</p> <p>Upcoming La Canadienne new styles:<br /> - 20 new styles arriving in August 2008<br /> - 42 new styles arriving in September 2008<br /> - 31 new styles arriving in October 2008</p> <p>That's a lot of new stuff! So I'm hoping the Trixxie and Tailor will be among those new styles. I'll let you guys know if I see them. It's never too early to start your Christmas list </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20199 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 04:04:23 +0000 amy29 20199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>those boots are so cute. good luck finding them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20195 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 03:51:54 +0000 Anonymous 20195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Maya for showing us the website. La Canadiene certainly has a beautiful line up of boots and shoes for the season. I'm going to keep my eye on them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20185 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 03:00:00 +0000 Patience 20185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't seen the new season of La Canadienne anywhere yet, so maybe they just haven't come out? There may not be the same boots as last season but I bet there will be some good new ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20183 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 02:52:37 +0000 Maya 20183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lot of shoes seem to have mysteriously disappeared from Zappos. They have really gone downhill lately Their customer service is still great, but I find myself ordering shoes from other sites a lot more these days. </p> <p>Ana, I really like the Tahra but they're just too big for my chicken calves. I saw the tailor too and loved them, and I also remember seeing them on Zappos. I wonder what's going on. I guess even they are suffering some backlash from slow sales. I have the ankle boot version of the Tahra and they are super comfy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20179 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 02:39:10 +0000 Ana 20179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These have a 2" heel, but I have them on my fall/winter wishlist:</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/28454016/c/72.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/28454016/c/72.html</a></p> <p>Zappos used to have more of a selection of LC boots. There was one pair I had my eye on:</p> <p><a href="http://www.lacanadienne.ca/en/collections/fall-winter-2008/footwear/tailor" rel="nofollow">http://www.lacanadienne.ca/en/.....ear/tailor</a></p> <p>and now they are gone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20171 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 02:23:13 +0000 Tanya 20171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Maya, I've tried searching all over but nothing. I'll keep my eyes open for these or similar boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saving-my-pennies-for-boots#post-20169 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 02:13:57 +0000 Maya 20169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There's a void in my boot wardrobe: a pair of dressy, skirt-worthy boots. Am I right in thinking boots have to have some sort of heel to look good with dresses and skirts (bearing in mind that I am short)?</p> <p>I am IN LOVE with these but I don't know where to buy them! Not even Zappos had them and Googling returned nothing. The similar Tahra style would definitely be too big for me in the calf, so I don't have high hopes, but it would be worth it just to try them on and make sure.</p> <p><a href="http://www.lacanadienne.ca/en/collections/fall-winter-2008/footwear/trixxie" rel="nofollow">http://www.lacanadienne.ca/en/.....ar/trixxie</a></p> <p>Anyway, the point of this post is that if you happen to see any tall boots with a heel height of around 1.5"-1.75" and a round toe, please let me know! They can be slightly below knee-high since I'm short, and do bear in mind my extremely picky feet. I'm saving now so I can get them around November. I might even just ask for them for Christmas. So there's plenty of time for you guys to look for me :p I'm not going to be particular about color or details. I love brown but black will definitely accommodate more of my wardrobe, and little details like buttons or cuffs would be really awesome...but as I said, these are just bonuses.</p> <p>Thanks girls. </p>
