The footbed is very comfortable for extended walking. I have average bordering on wide feet and I find the width of the foot perfect. They are nice because of the stretchy upper portion of the boot hugging your ankle and calf. I have pretty "meaty" calves and these stretch enough no problem to fit. They work equally well with skirts/dresses or skinnies tucked in. I know they didn't work for Rita (hers fell apart) but other on the forum have them and like them as well. Plus they're waterproof! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-798279 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 21:14:46 +0000 CocoLion 798279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The sweater, skirt and bag together = so stylish!</p> <p>How do you like the Blondos?

I'm finding that this outfit is super comfortable but I don't feel sloppy, which is a concern sometimes with builky sweaters for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797917 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 15:20:48 +0000 Angie 797917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a happy striped outfit!

Modern and graphic. </p> <p>Your outfits ALWAYS make me smile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797900 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 15:05:42 +0000 Sara L. 797900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blue stripe on the bottom of the skirt with the striped top. The tall boots look good with the outfit. I still wear my tall boots because they're warmer and I run really cold. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797866 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 14:14:36 +0000 Suz 797866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a nice pairing! You look great in that sweater. And this is fun colour blocking. How kind of you to show some love to those tall boots of yours! It is pouring rain here today so I might have to give some love to mine as well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797850 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:53:03 +0000 lyn67 797850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Claire said, I thought it was a dress! Soguess I don't have to explain my opinion anymore, so welldone, just LOVE! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797839 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:45:32 +0000 Anonymous 797839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice! At first I thought your sweater was more like a dress and went all the way down to the blue stripe, lol! Then when I clicked on it I saw the line where your sweater ends. It was genius that you paired these two items Shannon. It shows what a good eye you have. Love the Blondos! The texture they lend is especially nice. You look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797829 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:35:54 +0000 Jaime 797829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great mix! I really love those boots and think they look perfect here, but blue booties would be fun too. And the sweater is just great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797817 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:13:24 +0000 Anonymous 797817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this look! For fun I think next time you should wear your cobalt booties with it.</p> <p>I love the stripes mixed with the colourblock skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797816 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:12:59 +0000 glam on the inside 797816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The blue on the skirt really makes the outfit. Nice work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797814 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:11:30 +0000 Atlantia 797814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That works beautifully! Love that colorblocking. Because booties are so on trend this season, the tall boots make it look more classic. Love it! Do I even need to mention how I love how you matched your bag? I think not....you know I am in awe of your matching skills. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797809 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 13:08:21 +0000 Raisin 797809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the turtleneck. It fits you great. Love the blue colorblock on the skirt too, you look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-stripes-for-debombshelling#post-797802 Mon, 17 Dec 2012 12:32:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 797802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thrifted this cream and black striped loose turtleneck sweater a month or so ago and have worn it quite often with jeans, but thought today to pair it with a pencil skirt, not only to act as a debombshelling item, but also to bring in the stripe trend. I tried it first with a plain black pencil skirt and I liked it but it was lacking a wee something. Then I tried it with this black skirt with the cobalt blue wide stripe at the bottom and loved it! Just something a little unexpected, you know?</p> <p>With the sweater and skirt, I'm wearing black microfishnets (it's quite warm here today - at least by Winnipeg standards!), and my Blondo knee high boots. Anna had started a thread about choosing short boots over long boots and I thought I'd give my knee high boots some love today. To further play up the cream and black in the sweater, I've chosen my cream and black leather handbag. Jewelry is a black/purple/gold bangle.</p> <p>What do you think? Does this sweater and skirt combination work? What about with the taller boots? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Sweater: Pria (thrifted)<br /> Skirt: Jones New York<br /> Microfishnets: Hue<br /> Boots: Blondo<br /> Handbag: Danier Leather (thrifted)<br /> Bangle: thrifted </p>
