But fwiw I agree with the group consensus, and think they really suit the sophisticated edginess of your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1878685 Sun, 14 Jan 2018 17:54:44 +0000 hgr 1878685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, yes yes!!! &nbsp;These boots look great and I feel they can be worn with anything (pants, skirts, dresses). &nbsp;Please wear them. &nbsp;Don't observe them from afar. &nbsp;I bought a pair of low heeled Blondos (ankle boot) and only wore them with jeans. &nbsp;One day I tried them with tights and a wrap dress. &nbsp;Very cute and very comfortable.</p> <p>&nbsp;Regarding the weather: &nbsp;I live in a snowy climate. &nbsp; If my hubby is driving then I will wear a heeled boot.(he can drop me off at the door) but if I am driving myself then I will wear snow boots to my car and change my shoes at my destination. &nbsp;</p> <p>Also, I'm starting to mark how many times I wear my clothes/shoes/boots in 2018 so I have a much better idea of whether I have made a wise purchase. &nbsp;</p> <p>Enjoy your boots</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1878672 Sun, 14 Jan 2018 16:32:28 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1878672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa P, one more thing... I just watched Wonder Woman last night, and Gal Gadot is wearing a pair of boots like your CKs (but in leather), in the outfit she's wearing in the opening scene, in Paris.</p> <p>I kind of feel like, if it's good enough for Wonder Woman...&nbsp; &nbsp;:D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1878618 Sun, 14 Jan 2018 11:11:09 +0000 jussie 1878618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them. Personally I think they'd look pretty interesting with some jeans rolled up a bit too. Or maybe it's just me.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1878515 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 22:53:28 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1878515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, the Steve Madden version of these booties turned out to be very comfortable when I wore them for an event. I got a lot of compliments, because I don't think anyone around here would do the bootie and dress look other than me so I was all cutting edge and stuff. ;-)</p> <p>Because they are fabric, you couldn't really wear them for any kind of extended period outdoors in the winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877479 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 23:04:59 +0000 Anonymous 1877479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>The Cat</b> - considering the source of that comment , I laughed. &nbsp;All is fine. &nbsp;And thanks for your thoughts on the boots - they will be a once-in-awhile thing , not really for outside wear .&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877425 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 19:56:39 +0000 The Cat 1877425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sad to hear that someone here gave you such a nasty comment.</p> <p>The boots look great. You ask if WE wear them, and as for myself, the answer is no, because I don't like pointed toes for myself, and because I need and prefer more sturdy heels, particular in winter. However, I do enjoy seeing others sporting footwear I can't wear myself. The boots look current, and if you love them and are able to walk in them, please wear them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877336 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 16:24:21 +0000 Marilyn 1877336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like a skinny heel when I want a dressier vibe as well.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The only issue is the heels get torn up on the ice and rough snow.&nbsp; Definitely show wear and tear more than my block heels. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877335 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 16:23:41 +0000 Anonymous 1877335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have that style in leopard print. &nbsp;I feel meow when I wear them LOL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877332 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 16:21:58 +0000 Suz 1877332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wear them!

I have three different colours (red, black and taupe) of the SW cling boots and they have been my favourite and most worn footwear over the past year. I'll keep on wearing them in 2018 too. Apart from loving the look, they work so well with cropped and wide leg pants, cropped jeans, midi dresses and skirts, the works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877184 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 03:48:39 +0000 Sal 1877184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LBD - she does</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://doesmybumlook40.blogspot.co.nz/">http://doesmybumlook40.blogspot.co.nz/</a></p> <p>(Kat is from the UK so not sure why it comes up with a NZ suffix).&nbsp; She is pretty funny too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877179 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 03:39:45 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1877179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 'em!&nbsp; &nbsp;They're Lady Pirate boots.</p> <p>I have block-heel OTK boots, they're awesome, and I feel very trendy and very comfortable when I wear them.&nbsp; &nbsp;But seriously, I don't feel 1/5 as fierce as when I wear boots like your CKs.</p> <p>Victoria from In The Frow has been wearing pointed-toe microsuede and fabric boots all over the place.&nbsp;</p> <p>Ummlilla, I can't wait to see your outfit!</p> <p>Sal, thank you for sharing those links with us!&nbsp; &nbsp;I love her pictures - does she have a blog? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877177 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 03:20:13 +0000 Sal 1877177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That will look stunning Ummlila!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877169 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 03:00:57 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1877169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought the cheaper trend in version of these and am rather pleased with them, as they’ve arrived today in the post. Not feeling too high. Not looking too cheap. I think I’ll wear with this dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877147 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 01:50:52 +0000 Sal 1877147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I follow Kat from Doesmybumlook40 and she wears these boots well.&nbsp; Here are some links.</p> <p>Her style is a bit different to yours (bit more boho, more pattern) but she shares a love of trainers, jackets and neutrals as well.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BdpTgfOFdWv/?hl=en&amp;taken-by=doesmybumlook40">https://www.instagram.com/p/Bd.....ybumlook40</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BbzaQaiFf8K/?hl=en&amp;taken-by=doesmybumlook40">https://www.instagram.com/p/Bb.....ybumlook40</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BblnifDFhmq/?hl=en&amp;taken-by=doesmybumlook40">https://www.instagram.com/p/Bb.....ybumlook40</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BbL-E-GluSO/?hl=en&amp;taken-by=doesmybumlook40">https://www.instagram.com/p/Bb.....ybumlook40</a></p> <p>I think they would really work with volume/drape to provide some structure - can't see them with a pencil skirt or skinny jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877133 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 01:26:16 +0000 Anonymous 1877133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KM - I see them that way too , which is why I bought them in the first place . But I seemed to have done a complete about-face with footwear and went away from a sophisticated look like this . You’ve convinced me to go back </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877121 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 01:06:41 +0000 K.M. 1877121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I sure hope these are not outdated, because I have several similar boots (slightly lower heels) and they are my absolute favorite look. I find the slim shafts, pointy toes, and skinny heels so elegant. I hope they count as timeless classics </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877113 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 00:49:36 +0000 Anonymous 1877113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smittie : my thoughts exactly . I have a tall block heel boot but the heels are a little higher than I’m comfortable with on ice and snow . Block heels give a totally different vibe , don’t they ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877110 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 00:46:08 +0000 Anonymous 1877110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are far more plugged in on trends than I am, so you know best.<br /> I’ll say, though, that for me, I prefer a skinny heel for dressy occasions and a block heel for everything else. </p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877109 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 00:45:48 +0000 Anonymous 1877109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you , Angie . I appreciate your time tonight . I think I’ll give these boots a whirl tomorrow </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877107 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 00:41:13 +0000 Angie 1877107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(Quick chime in as I am supposed to be resting).&nbsp;</p> <p>GO RIGHT AHEAD AND WEAR THEM IF YOU LIKE THE LOOK. <b>Not dated</b>. Total classic, flattering, and perfectly structured for midis and culottes. I would wear them if I could manage the heel height.&nbsp;</p> <p>My clients are hauling out this style of boot again too - like you. Very handy for dresses and skirts in Winter.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sorry---one-last-post-these-boots---are-they-still-ok#post-1877074 Tue, 09 Jan 2018 23:36:09 +0000 Anonymous 1877074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry for clogging up the forum today - as one &nbsp;member recently said " lisa p &nbsp;yr (sic) an idiot". &nbsp;(rim shot). Anyways.....yes, I may well be an idiot, and I have never disputed that &nbsp;<br />We have discussed this boot silhouette here before, and I'd like to do it again. Can I still wear these without fear of looking like I'm tuned out? &nbsp;Brand new (I think I wore them once) mid-heel, stretch micro suede CK boot). Pointed toe. Not the extended pointy toe of the 90's , but a newer &nbsp;pointy toe from about 3 years ago. &nbsp;I still feel wrong wearing them but they would be so perfect in our dodgy weather and with my new cheap wide leg culottes (see other post) . &nbsp;If these SW red suede ones were not the price, they are, I would be owning them in a hot minute, but somehow new from SW does not equal 3 yr old CK boots. Know what I mean (like CK &nbsp;not exactly being the arbiter of style) ? &nbsp;Are these so back in that I can wear them now? &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> </p> <p>I don't want just "ok", I want "great". &nbsp; &nbsp;Please share your thoughts!!&nbsp;</p>
