I think this is PERFECT deployment of the boots and suits you to a T. The more I look at it the more genius it is. And if you'd showed it to me "in theory", with the same pieces laid out on the bed, I probably would have said "nope". Goes to show how YOU are an integral part of your outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243708 Tue, 06 May 2014 18:51:12 +0000 rebekahphoto 1243708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the contrast of the warm terra cotta with the turquoise a lot. also looks very good with your hair!&nbsp;I am inspired to break out my turq boots...I love the boots on you and vote keep</p> <p>also we are bracelet twins today!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243667 Tue, 06 May 2014 18:05:07 +0000 Elizabeth P 1243667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You never cease to amaze me.&nbsp; I think this is wonderful... and with all that turquoise jewellery, you NEED the boots!&nbsp; Don't you?</p> <p>I think there are some great "how to wear them more" styling suggestions already in this thread, I probably can't add much.&nbsp; </p> <p>PS.&nbsp; Not cowboy boots, but I do have these.&nbsp; Waving to Janet too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243576 Tue, 06 May 2014 16:21:26 +0000 Karie 1243576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this outfit - I like that you kept it from being OTT by keeping the top and jeans the same color. I would keep the boots - they're vintage and gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243568 Tue, 06 May 2014 16:12:51 +0000 rachylou 1243568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like this colour combo.

My favorite look of yours so far!</p> <p>As an alternate look you could substitute black for the terra-cotta.</p> <p>Plan C: an outfit with the boots, blue jeans, and lots of other blues. Really pile them on. I think it'll work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243437 Tue, 06 May 2014 13:58:30 +0000 jackiec 1243437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow your outfit packs a lot of punch! Lots of matching details and fun energy! Nicely done. No advice on the boots but you sure know how to make it work here!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243429 Tue, 06 May 2014 13:50:17 +0000 Meredith 1243429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep them! They are gorgeous and I love them paired with the terra cotta color. I would wear them with a skirt or dress with bare legs or with light pants as Janet suggested. This might be one of those times when lengthening the leg takes a backseat to the opportunity to wear something just plain fun. I see how you might worry about the look, but my eyes go right to how great the boots look, not to the contrast between boot and leg. Now I just might have to wear my boring brown cowboy boots today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243370 Tue, 06 May 2014 12:26:17 +0000 MuseumGal 1243370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ARE YOU KIDDING ME THOSE BOOTS ARE AMAZING.<br />Ahem, sorry to shout.&nbsp; How about pairing them with a short(ish) leather skirt?&nbsp; Or a flowy maxi? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243332 Tue, 06 May 2014 11:10:36 +0000 Janet 1243332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I love those boots, but I'm probably the only other person here who owns turquoise cowboy boots! </p> <p>However, I find that mine play really well with my wardrobe -- I wear a lot of shades of teal and turquoise. I also like how they look with regular denim, and I wear them with flares too, so the turquoise just peeks out from the hem of the jeans. So for me they're very versatile, but admittedly, I also don't worry as much about leg lengthening. </p> <p>I would give them a try with a tonal look in white or grey before you let them go. They really are fab and you have the turquoise jewelry to complement them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243330 Tue, 06 May 2014 11:00:53 +0000 fuzzylogic 1243330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another truly Leopardluxe look! I am constantly amazed and inspired by your creativity!</p> <p>These are statement boots for sure! </p> <p>I am intimidated like heck by them, but I kind of like them!!!! I would put them through their paces before I let them go. Have you paired them with embellished white/off white? Perhaps in a loose, floaty dress or boho inspired top?</p> <p>You have such a great sense of your own style. I am certain you will know what to do. Waving!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-terracotta-with-turquoise-python-skin-boots#post-1243320 Tue, 06 May 2014 10:02:13 +0000 leopardluxe 1243320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A couple of months back I asked Fabbers for some help deciding on whether to keep, sell or DIY a couple of pairs of vintage python skin cowboy boots I own but find I don't wear much anymore.</p> <p>One pair was these turquoise leather and python skin cowboy boots. So yesterday I decided to give another shot to wearing them before making a final call on whether to sell or keep.</p> <p>The vibe is most definitely southwestern with the antique turquoise jewelry but I kept things very simple by pairing them otherwise with a basic column of color via a loose weave&nbsp;terra-cotta sweater and distressed terra-cotta jeans so the attention stays focused on the boots and the jewelry. No pattern on my body other than the kilim in the vintage bag.&nbsp;So it's southwestern feeling without being too OTT in it's "cowgirl-feel."</p> <p>It's not one of my favorite outfits but I did like the excuse to pull out some of my antique Native American and Moroccan jewelry (which it seems comes in and out of being "on-trend" every few years).</p> <p>What do you guys think? Now that you've seen one way I'm likely to style the boots should I sell them or hang onto them? Funny thing is it was the color of the boots&nbsp;that drew me to them all those years ago but in practice I've found styling them somewhat of a challenge because of the color --I don't particularly care for the turquoise against the blue of faded blue jeans and any leg covering that is too dark or light&nbsp;(or not the same value-range as the turquoise) to me looks like it cuts off my legs visually.</p> <p>So I guess I haven't really made the call on whether to keep or sell which means I'll likely toss them back into my closet with a promise to myself to decide later :-)</p> <p>p.s. day after haircut hair came out pretty decent.&nbsp;It's still semi-wet in the photos so once it was dry it did have more definition and lift, like how the stylist had done it.</p> <p><b>Terracotta wool loose-weave sweater:</b> Theory (via consignment store)<br /><b>Distressed terracotta jeans</b>: True Religion (via Nordstrom Rack in Seattle)<br /><b>Bag</b>: vintage kilim (via ebay years ago)<br /><b>Python and leather cowboy boots</b>: custom made&nbsp;vintage (via estate buyout)<br /><b>Left hand rings and bracelets</b>: antique sterling and turquoise native american (various tribes, one bracelet is Zuni the other is navajo) all c.1920's-40's<br /><b>Right hand bracelet</b>: Vintage Moroccan sterling, turquoise and red coral (bought at a little antique jewelry bazaar in the old city in Fez, Morrocco when I was there about 7 years ago)<br /><b>Earrings</b>: Vintage turquoise and sterling hoops&nbsp;<br /><b>Belt buckle</b>: Vintage large single turquoise chunk set in&nbsp;sterling by Choctaw artist Gale Selt.</p>
