I use an iPad and I think it doesn't work? Or maybe I am just TI.<br /> They are Unisa from DSW<br /> Relatively inexpensive . I thought a good way to try out the trend!

I have never been comfortable with being objectified. I think it is one reason I tend to carry extra weight, protection from unwanted attention..as I get older though I don't think it is as much of an issue,<br /> Thanks BrieN!<br /> Tanya - i guess it depends on the boot and the outfit ?<br /> Thank you summer old chic and shevia!<br /> And all the others who commented earlier. I am sorry I didn't respomd individually,<br /> I got overwhelmed </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759421 Sun, 11 Dec 2016 02:02:52 +0000 Jaime 1759421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the boots and the belt and both outfits look fantastic. I totally relate to the self conscious feeling but remember as soon as you wear it, it becomes the new normal.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759396 Sun, 11 Dec 2016 00:02:42 +0000 old chic 1759396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Add another you look fab in these.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759269 Sat, 10 Dec 2016 11:50:20 +0000 Summer 1759269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done for pushing the boundaries, Momo.&nbsp;&nbsp; Your doubts are unfounded as both outfits look fabulous, and not provocative&nbsp; at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759171 Sat, 10 Dec 2016 00:23:45 +0000 Tanya 1759171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, your risks payed off because you look stunning in both outfits.&nbsp; Your boots are gorgeous.&nbsp;&nbsp; I too have felt similarly about OTK boots for a long time and don't own any despite having a very large wardrobe.&nbsp; Recently I have managed to break out of that mind set, primarily because I was exposed to a couple of women at work wearing at them in a fairly casual and relaxed manner. Now I really want a pair and am hoping to find one at a deep discount or get them the next season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759162 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 23:45:22 +0000 BrieN 1759162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am nodding my head to what Smittie said. Those pieces add interest -- very stylish. &nbsp;These are some of my favorite outfits on you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759134 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 22:07:11 +0000 Bennett 1759134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sexing up my outer appearance does not match who I am on the interior. It is distressing to be seen as an object, for me anyway. I shoot for looking interesting and approachable. </p> <p>You have done exactly that with these outfits. If we crossed paths at an event I would definitely stop to complement you on your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759126 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 21:31:34 +0000 Momo 1759126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for the feedback. Yes firecracker they are dark blue. So comfy too!<br /> I am glad to hear it isn't sexy. Not sure why I am so nervous about that. I mean, these were at work so I sure don't want to look sexy there but there is more to it than that!<br /> But as I get older I am feeling so much better in myself. I have realized I have much more strength than I thought . It is kinda awesome! Yay to being 45 . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759063 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 17:57:46 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1759063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits are great! Bravo for pushing a little outside your comfort zone. These outfits look true to your style, to me. The OTK boots are stunning. They look dark blue in the photo--is that true or an illusion? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759053 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 17:33:21 +0000 LaPed 1759053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of examining your own aversions and taking small risks. You look so confident and comfortable in your own skin! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1759001 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 15:35:58 +0000 Tamara G 1759001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You really do look stylish, and confident, in both outfits. Appreciate you sharing your concerns about looking "sexy," I feel the same way. Thank&nbsp; you for saying that you did feel comfortable in these, you've inspired me to look for my own small risks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758848 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 01:20:06 +0000 bj1111 1758848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on getting out of your comfort zone and surviving in fab style. Both outfits are really well put together and flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758841 Fri, 09 Dec 2016 01:06:10 +0000 Bennett 1758841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also do not want anyone to think "sexy" because of the way I'm dressed. I want to look stylish and interesting, and that's the way you look here. Job well done! Wear in confidence, YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758691 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 18:36:46 +0000 Sal 1758691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these looks- well done on pushing the comfort zone. You look smart, well presented and confident. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758688 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 18:33:00 +0000 Anonymous 1758688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Momo, these two items are exactly what you need! They are the "next level" type of pieces.<br /> As Janet, Eliza and others have said, You do NOT look sexy.<br /> Just really stylish.<br /> I would definitely give you admiring looks if I saw you on the street. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758676 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 17:27:08 +0000 Emily K 1758676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two cute outfits!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758650 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 16:01:26 +0000 Angie 1758650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Janet said, and I love your smile.

You look great in blue, really fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758642 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 15:17:14 +0000 rachylou 1758642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes to belt and boots </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758637 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 15:13:31 +0000 cindysmith 1758637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see a bit of sexy here, but not from anything provocative or overt. What I see is someone who looks well put together and confident, and confidence is sexy. I think you look great!</p> <p>Edit: fix typo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758627 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 15:03:47 +0000 Anonymous 1758627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both looks are wonderful on you and neither looks revealing or sexy. The belt is not tightly cinched around your waist. The OTK boots blend with your outfits and look more like a pair of leggings than boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758609 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 14:16:11 +0000 Suz 1758609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits look terrific on you, <b>Momo</b>, and I hear you about taking small risks. Great strategy to expand your style.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758607 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 14:14:18 +0000 Sara L. 1758607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both outfits look great on you. &nbsp;The boots are especially fab - I love that color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/small-risks#post-1758598 Thu, 08 Dec 2016 13:39:00 +0000 Eliza 1758598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look good and the boots are amazing! To my eye, you look put together and ready to go almost anywhere with style. Not seeing anything vaguely provocative here. Sometimes what makes me a little self-conscious is just the fact that I put some thought into my outfit, as I live where casual and traditional reign. YLF has made me more comfortable with that. &nbsp;Well done!&nbsp; </p>
