Full stop. The boots aren’t even remotely “too much”. They make the outfit sing.  But I know what you mean. I have some slightly blingy footwear that I love in theory, but about half the time I take them off before I leave the house because it doesn’t feel right - they feel “too much”. I think Angie’s post today is very timely. But I also think we over judge and over think ourselves to a crazy degree. Because in truth your boots are FAB. P.s. nice bag score!

Rachy, thank you.  I bought the jacket at NAS in 2016.  It’s been a real workhorse. MsMaven, thank you. Jenni, thank you.  Since it’s summer, you can wear statement sandals.  Or jandals!  :) SW Ann, so interesting, there are several of us who bought these boots and then were reluctant to wear them.  I’m glad you feel comfortable in them now. Nemosmom, I’ll try them with an all plain outfit, and see how it goes.   Slim cat, thank you. Joy, I remember the SE booties.  I loved them!   Shevia, thank you. Bijou, ha ha!  You know, a third of them are white, and look like Westies! Jane, thank you.  Yes, I just need to get used to them. Adriana, thank you.  I think you’re right.  But I wanted a scarf for warmth. Notsaf, interesting.  White sneakers didn’t faze me at all. Angie, thank you.  It’s so nice getting the Angie seal of approval.  :) Suntiger, for me it’s vintage Coach.  Only vintage.  And only extra special ones.

For me, it was bright white sneakers. Takes a wear or two to adjust, and then enjoy! Adriana on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095232 Mon, 27 Jan 2020 12:27:23 +0000 Adriana 2095232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ They bookend your hair and I think you don't need the scarf. Lovely. But I have the same feelings you have about a trendy piece or strong colors. And the strange thing is, after wearing it for a while it gets normal. Jane on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095216 Mon, 27 Jan 2020 07:26:17 +0000 Jane 2095216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The boots look super! IKWYM though and I think maybe the only way to ‘crack’ it is to wear them.

And what Joy says.  Anonymous on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095203 Mon, 27 Jan 2020 04:08:18 +0000 Anonymous 2095203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I had a hard time at first wearing my snake SE booties.  One gets used to them after a few wears.  Just keep wearing them.  Now I don't think twice.  The same thing happened with shiny silver shoes.  NOw I love them.  Yours look wonderful on you and with your outfit. slim cat on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095201 Mon, 27 Jan 2020 03:30:35 +0000 slim cat 2095201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Lovely look all together - perfect combo! nemosmom on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095193 Mon, 27 Jan 2020 01:48:13 +0000 nemosmom 2095193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <div>I think your boots look GREAT with the scarf (heck, even without the scarf!) </div><div> I felt awkward the first time I wore my snake boots, too. I agree that they felt 'in your face', but when paired with otherwise plain pieces, I have grown to love them.  I also discovered something else about them - they make a great focal point/distraction when my face and hair look bad :)  No one noticed how tired I looked! </div> SW Ann on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095191 Mon, 27 Jan 2020 01:13:48 +0000 SW Ann 2095191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I  had the same issue; loved the blondo reptile boots, but struggled to wear them....I finally, just last week, put them on and wore them.  I got compliments all day long....Now I've worn them three days this past week, and they are becoming easier to find things to wear with them.  I knew I could, as have lots of black and white in my closet, but hesitated because they were "different".  However, I think that is initially why I bought them!!!

I WANT to wear statement boots! But it’s summer here so I have only worn boots once in about 3 months, on one cooler day. MsMaven on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095185 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 23:26:58 +0000 MsMaven 2095185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The boots and the scarf really do make this outfit. Great look! rachylou on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095182 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 22:27:21 +0000 rachylou 2095182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is very natty! Have I seen this jacket before? I like the way the scarf and boots complement the coat. kellygirl on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095181 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 22:21:56 +0000 kellygirl 2095181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is lovely!! IKWYM because I haven’t worn my Blondos either. Every time I put them on I change my mind and I’m way past the return window. They look fab on you and I think I just need to wear them to get over the initial hesitation. I bet they will be workhorses—given the chance. You look fab. That grey puffer is awesome with the Scottie scarf! Carla on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095180 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 22:21:53 +0000 Carla 2095180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Brilliant no problems here!  Brilliant bookending with the scarf.   kkards on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095179 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 22:15:32 +0000 kkards 2095179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ They are statement shoes, and I love them, but then I use statement shoes to create interest all the time. I love the way you’ve bookended them with your scarf. The total outfit is fab! Love the way your jacket accents the whole outfit. Have you tried the boots with white or lighter blue jeans? Might be a way to make less “in your face”. Cardiff girl on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095176 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 22:04:38 +0000 Cardiff girl 2095176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Coach  Bags are always excluded from a no shop!l know what you mean about the busyness of the boots ,they are a statement piece but I think they add a certain chupatzh to a plain outfit and teaming them with your scarf was a genius idea. JAileen on "SYC: For church" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/syc-for-church#post-2095175 Sun, 26 Jan 2020 21:34:48 +0000 JAileen 2095175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I’ve gone over three weeks without buying any clothes or shoes.  I wanted to wear these Blondos, since it was wet this morning.  I bought them at the same time as NAS, but this was the first time I’ve worn them.  I put some Dr Scholl insoles in them the other day, and they’re a lot more comfortable.  I think I hadn’t worn them because they seem kind of in your face.  I wore this familiar Scottie scarf to bookend the black and white busyness.  Does anyone else feel this way?<div> </div><div>I did buy something:  a vintage Coach bag.  When I decided to do a no shop year, I specifically excluded them.  :)</div>
