It also looks like you are sorted with high heeled black booties. </p> <p>I look the liberty: </p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/product/8002420/color/113049" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/product/8002420/color/113049</a></p> <p>I know I'm pushing my luck with the blue stripe :)</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/product/8032030/color/6" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/product/8032030/color/6</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/frye-lois-oxford-grey-soft-vintage-leather" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/frye-loi.....ge-leather</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/product/8013520/color/10484" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/product/8013520/color/10484</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-740710 Sat, 06 Oct 2012 00:16:01 +0000 bj1111 740710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>elle,</p> <p>thanks for the search. </p> <p>i just ordered and returned these zanotti ones. they were amazingly lovely, but i just don't like the shaft around my ankle. </p> <p><a href="http://www.theoutnet.com/product/339062" rel="nofollow">http://www.theoutnet.com/product/339062</a></p> <p>i guess i would prefer the a high vamp shoe/almost bootie=shoetie (TM rachel zoe). which is why i liked the lucchese. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-740631 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 23:10:50 +0000 ElleH 740631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Luchesse ones. I don't know how they would look with a dress though. I prefer those with jeans &amp; pants but maybe that is because I wore them that way in the 90s. There are so many black options out there with a chunky heel. I could start posting links but not sure exactly what you want. Leather, suede, patent, lace up, zip up, fitted ankle, high or low vamp. I know you want a lower chunkier heel &amp; more casual.</p> <p>ETA: <a href="http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&#038;rls=en&#038;q=black+booties+low+heel&#038;oe=UTF-8&#038;um=1&#038;ie=UTF-8&#038;hl=en&#038;tbm=isch&#038;source=og&#038;sa=N&#038;tab=wi&#038;ei=JmpvULbTNaGyiQLsv4HIDA&#038;biw=1280&#038;bih=592&#038;sei=LGpvUOvTKIK4iwLWiYDADg" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.com/search?c.....iwLWiYDADg</a></p> <p>ETA: Angie comes up a couple of times in this google search:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-740571 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 22:22:53 +0000 bj1111 740571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>the lanvin shoeties were too big. i have two black high heeled booties. one closed toe platform high heel with a suede back and another woven open toe also with a heel. both shoes feel like a production to wear. i wanted something more casual less dressy with a shorter or chunkier heel.</p> <p>i ordered these lucchese shoeties in walnut. it seems to have a reddish tinge. what do you think?</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/lucchese-i6151-walnut-bomber-calf" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/lucchese.....omber-calf</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-740498 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 21:44:24 +0000 Angie 740498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>bj1111, you absolutely need BLACK booties before you venture out into blonde booties. Do you have black booties? </p> <p>Don't know if you bought them, but those Lanvin shoeties were saw at the Rack together in Chicago could have been your black booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-740482 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 21:36:11 +0000 Scarlet 740482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess it's the wrong answer but I really love 2 but not 1. Sorry, BJ they would work with your new pullover wouldn't they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-740111 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 16:57:48 +0000 bj1111 740111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i do love #2, but i think not enough. it's not versatile enough and i'm not fond of light colored feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739977 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 14:49:38 +0000 shiny 739977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE #2, but I am looking for booties in that color -- to bookend my blonde hair, but also because I want light booties for use in the Spring, when I'll be tired of darker boots. Are they comfy? What is the brand?</p> <p>Here's how I'd wear them: either with bare legs, OR with nude micro-fishnets. Can you try that for us, with the outfits you want them to go with? The key here, I think, is that the color of the booties should compliment your skin tone. I can't tell if they compliment your skin, because you are wearing them with dark tights. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739878 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 12:50:53 +0000 Janet 739878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Zap and am not particularly feeling either one. #1 does look oddly long, and I find shoes as light as #2 challenging as a brunette -- I just don't particularly love my feet being that light colored unless it's a sandal, especially in boot weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739861 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 12:27:56 +0000 missvee 739861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think 1 would look great with jeans or super casual skirts with tights,. I love 2 and agree the the light colour won't be that practical for everyday wear, but do you need them for heavy duty wear? They really are a stunning pair of boots ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739815 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 08:58:10 +0000 Deborah 739815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Send me #2 he he...they are stunning but I just don't know if practical for you particularly given you are a brunette:(. Sorry but not loving #1. I think it's worth a continued search. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739806 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 08:41:33 +0000 fashionista 739806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like no 2 more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739773 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 07:41:09 +0000 ElleH 739773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like number 2. They would be leg lengthening without hose. I'm not sure how they would look with that dress with or without hose without a picture of the whole outfit though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739726 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 04:44:09 +0000 catgirl 739726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'm the weirdo who likes #1. But I have a whole bunch of purple Arche shoes bookmarked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739699 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 03:58:18 +0000 rae 739699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My vote is also #2, because I don't like the looks of #1. But the chalk might be hard to wear with the brown dress... would you be wearing hose? Zap makes a good point about that. Did I miss a leather jacket decision somewhere? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739684 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 03:30:53 +0000 Anonymous 739684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not feeling either one, the first ones are rather long, as Angie says, and I think #2 might be too light for what you want them. Also, finding tights or hose that is not too stark becomes a huge issue. I'm on my 5th return of a taupe leather jacket, so frustrating, I know.</p> <p>ETA: Just comisserating on how hard it is to find the perfect item, Rae. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739679 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 03:25:44 +0000 bj1111 739679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>suz, hair is black</p> <p>angie, how versatile will #2 be with my wardrobe? color seems light. it's pricey even for me! should i hold out for a darker bootie?</p> <p>ps, i noticed that i looked like i had extra long feet in #1! my toesies sure are comfy in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739666 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 03:03:43 +0000 Angie 739666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE #2 :)</p> <p>Your feet look overly long in #1, and I know you have small feet! What is going on? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739657 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 02:55:10 +0000 Suz 739657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bj - what colour is your hair again? (Apologies....) </p> <p>I really like #2. And with light hair, you get a bookending thing. But I don't know if either of these will go with all the items you mention. I know it's a pain, but can you show us? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-kr-the-highlander-boot-off#post-739652 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 02:52:13 +0000 bj1111 739652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>the most box o' booties didn't pass the hubs test...ie. the boots didn't hold my heart enough for me the brave the snickers every time i will pull them out.</p> <p>the ones that he liked and the ones that he tolerated are for your deciding pleasure. </p> <p>#1 (yay): purple suede flat lace-ups. pros--sooooo comfy; cons--suede</p> <p>#2 (nay): "chalk" low heeled booties. pros--cute; cons--not practical color.</p> <p>i need to be able to wear these boots with the chocolate leather dress and with the new leather jackets and with the beige-y taupe suede pullover.</p> <p>ETA: angie asked about booties that i own. these are posted in #3. i want something less dressy, easier to wear with a chunky heel. </p>
