Very comfortable, and they won't restrict you when lying on the floor building blocks etc!&nbsp;<br /><br />Love the shoes! I hope they work for you! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892844 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 22:57:08 +0000 catgirl 892844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Gentle Souls is really nice brand, I ogle them in the Garnet Hill catalog. &nbsp;And i love the boots. &nbsp;But i would not pull the trigger on anything&nbsp;unless they are both a need and a love. &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892843 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 22:55:32 +0000 Caro in Oz 892843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'd give the shoes a miss (not stylish enough for you imo).<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892654 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 19:16:34 +0000 Thistle 892654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ If a pair of Aquatalias dropped in my lap, I wouldn't say no!&nbsp; :)<br /><br />Been doing some thinking, and maybe I haven't pulled the trigger because they are kind of bland. I am liking some Sam Edelman shoes out there, but and their booties are comfy . . . . https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892648 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 19:07:37 +0000 Glory 892648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Maybe a pair of western style boots for wrangling? LOL<br />I would also wait on the boots unless you have had one in mind and are waiting to pounce on a good price. That is how I got my Frye's after waiting several years.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892637 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 18:52:59 +0000 pil 892637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You wild thing, those shoes almost have a pattern!<br /><br />I was looking for boots too but have decided to put it off now that spring (or something like that)&nbsp;is on its way. The boots in #3 are especially attractive.&nbsp; I wonder if a style like that has a longer shelf life than the distressing and&nbsp;heel detail in #1? Not that it's the same, but that concept kind of reminds me of my mom's approach to shopping at someplace like Kmart, back in the day when there was a stigma attached.&nbsp; Buy plain so others won't recognize the pattern and where it came from.<br /><br />Have fun wrangling that toddler of yours.&nbsp; My husband and I were at Wendy's for lunch yesterday and saw a cute little fellow about 1.&nbsp; It made me yearn for grandkids, but I'm afraid I'm going to be an old grandma because there doesn't seem to be&nbsp;a chance of that happening anytime soon. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892590 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 18:08:04 +0000 Thistle 892590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I am looked for polished with some feminine thrown in. I prefer versatile pieces that can work with a lot (don't we all!), but my two pair of knee high boots are basically just for skirts and dresses. <br /><br />So, passing on the boots. <br /><br />Returns are easy, so maybe I will give the shoes a try. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892561 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 17:31:59 +0000 rachylou 892561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You know, I think of your style Thistle as being more... polished. Do you want to go in a more gritty, RATE direction?<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892547 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 17:23:42 +0000 missvee 892547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I second Shannon - hold off buying boots right now. The Amalfis are excellent quality shoes. They are very classic - is this where your style is heading? I know you've been trying to add some interesting footwear, and these may not give you the look you want. &nbsp;If returns are easy though they might be worth trying to see if you like the quality and fit of this brand. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892521 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 16:34:25 +0000 Transcona Shannon 892521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ "Toddler wrangling" - LOL!<br /><br />Is the weather in your area now in full blown spring mode Thistle? I think if it's really warming up, I would personally pass on buying any boots at this time as you're going to want to be in shoes as it will be too warm for boots.&nbsp;<br /><br />I like the shoes you've linked to in #2 but don't know the brand so cannot speak to quality or fit. Are you wanting the shoes to work just with your dresses or with both dresses and trousers? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-and-boots#post-892414 Fri, 29 Mar 2013 14:24:55 +0000 Thistle 892414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So, I found the following couple of items as I have been looking to update my footwear.<br /><br />I am finding I like dresses and skirts more and have gone from wearing them never to about 50% of the time at work. Not at home as toddler wrangling really requires jeans. <br /><br />Anyway, looking for YLF thoughts on these. I like them, but I am worried I may have sale goggles on. Also wondering if I should just wait on boots until next fall. I am not familiar with the brands:&nbsp; Gentle Souls, Amalfi and sixtyseven.
