I'm glad you love them and it does seem that is a good epiphany--these are certainly "wardrobe essentials" and worthy of being very good quality and stylish for you, so that it seems effortless and fab to wear them.</p> <p>My big step up recently was Munro ankle boots at full price--I needed that kind of footwear for this season, I ran into them, they fit and looked good, so I leaped.<br /> What helped me most was I had not actually found other types that fit, looked good, but were cheaper, so I decided it was time to just do it. </p> <p>So for me that fits into the idea of, save time and energy by having some idea of what something ought to look, feel, or fit like, and when it happens, get it and just move on. That's off my list now and I don't need a duplicate and I'm wearing them rather than finding them in June when I'm wearing lighter/cooler footwear.</p> <p>I did almost order SW ankle boots from ? Pendleton catalog and there I did quake at the price. I may still want to try on SW brand at some point and make a comfort comparison. If it were somehow really better--I mean, heaven for feet--then I might do it, especially if it eliminated the need to wear, or keep buying, other pairs of footwear for the same outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792544 Mon, 10 Dec 2012 06:12:46 +0000 ManidipaM 792544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love how the sheer simplicity of them highlights the great shape. And it's practical on top of its elegance?! Score! Congratulations, Suz. This looks like an excellent investment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792419 Mon, 10 Dec 2012 02:13:13 +0000 JR 792419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am seriously jealous. I love Chelsea boots too and am keeping half an eye open for something good. Although I'm glad I haven't seen these. I've spent enough on boots this year, and it would hurt to leave a beautiful pair of boots like that behind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792303 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 22:26:16 +0000 Charmian 792303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear Suz, I believe you shipped them to the wrong address. They are <em>clearly</em> intended to be an early holiday gift for me, so if you'd be so kind as to remedy the shipping problem immediately, I won't hold this tiny little mistake against you.</p> <p>:P</p> <p>In all seriousness, these will be perfect for your climate (unlike my adored but weather-impractical first pair of SW ballet flats), and are exactly the foundation that a minimalist wardrobe is built upon: beautiful, well-made, not-boring classic pieces. Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792250 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 20:30:02 +0000 Janet 792250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them and would wear them in half a heartbeat. SWs are awesome. Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792239 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 20:19:31 +0000 Vix 792239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Suz --</p> <p>Sleek and beautiful and a great add to your closet given what you've been wearing and your climate. You'll get years of use with these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792188 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 18:57:06 +0000 Ariadne 792188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those booties are perfection. I'm so glad you bought them! I've been looking for something like that but sadly SW shoes are too narrow for my feet (and too $$$ for now). I will love them vicariously through you. </p> <p>You know what I love even more, though? Your OUTFIT. Those jeans are amazing but I love the whole getup. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792158 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 17:59:30 +0000 krishnidoux 792158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great, and they look great on you. I suspect these will become workhorses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792075 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 15:12:53 +0000 Thistle 792075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Suz, these are teh boots I fell in love with but were sold out in my size!!</p> <p>I am SO glad you got them!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792019 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 12:37:47 +0000 Mona 792019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, these are fab. I love the almond shaped toe. These will be the workhorses in your wardrobe. What jeans are u wearing in the pic? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-792018 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 12:35:35 +0000 Mander 792018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ooooOOOooooh.

I do so love SW shoes. So glad you got them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-791963 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 03:49:09 +0000 Isabel 791963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG ! Those are beautiful and anything but basic. I also love the shape of the toe. THIS is how to buy "everyday" wear. Something elegant and classic with an edge. Niiiiice !</p> <p>ETA I just looked at the boots online. They are swoon worthy. They are made in Italy. Hand stitiched and not glued. Beautiful, fine leather. They are the type of boot that you polish and re-sole and keep for 20 years and they ALWAYS look fan-tab. They are like a fine tiramasu...but enjoyable for so much longer....Congratulations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-791952 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 03:30:03 +0000 Suz 791952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And won't they look great with that Rag and Bone shirt, Shevia? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought/page/2#post-791939 Sun, 09 Dec 2012 02:54:24 +0000 Jaime 791939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh these are so perfect! I love the shape.

I personally think a sleek sharp pair of black booties is a wardrobe essential (for me anyway lol) and while these are so stunningly simple, they will add something quite special to your outfits. Great investment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought#post-791744 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 21:18:52 +0000 CocoLion 791744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations!

I went browsing the site after you posted! But truly, it was an impulse to buy these, yet the best kind of impulse, and I know I won't regret it for an instant. </p> <p>Shoes/ boots and coats in our climate, right? Those are the items worth spending on. Shop for your dominant climate, as Angie always says. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought#post-791683 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 19:36:32 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 791683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the Stuart Weitzman first time buyer club. It took me an hour to break the bank on my SW shoes but I have no regrets. I am sure you will not either. They are lovely booties and shoes and boots are really the place to put money. They are the equivalent of kitchens and bathrooms in the home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought#post-791675 Sat, 08 Dec 2012 19:14:48 +0000 cheryl 791675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these and you look fantastic! </p>
