That 3 are leather is a bonus. I hope they fit well and feel wonderful! And happy birthday! Say 49 out loud and jump for joy!&nbsp; (I don't feel bad about being 50, but now that I am 50, I think I might have celebrated being 49 a little harder!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1272032 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 09:50:12 +0000 bella 1272032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a pair of grey boots in the exact same shape as #3 (they were very popular a few years ago), and I wore them with everything, from leggings and skinny jeans to dresses - very very versatile! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1272005 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 06:25:36 +0000 trying... 1272005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.aerosoles.com/eng/product/lasticity/lasticity">http://www.aerosoles.com/eng/p...../lasticity</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271989 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 05:15:50 +0000 Deborah 1271989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Caro, thank you, yes I'm sorry I didn't respond on that thread.&nbsp; Really nice boots but I can't spend over $200.&nbsp; Also so many boots are 'almost' what I want but so many have too much embellishment and a lot of the sleek boots are very 'riding' boot style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271911 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 02:57:59 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1271911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 and #1, stylewise, and I lean toward #3 because it's leather. My preference for leather is based on your comment about your current boots. I think leather will be a nice change; it will wear well, be comfortable, and handle the elements (if maintained well). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271873 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 02:17:21 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1271873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried to keep your picture and wardrobe in the forefront of my mind and #3 was the only one that I could picture on you. It is beautiful and simple! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271800 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 01:10:25 +0000 Caro in Oz 1271800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd go for the leather too Did you check your other thread, I popped a link on it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271777 Sat, 07 Jun 2014 00:56:44 +0000 Deborah 1271777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies! #3 appears to be in the lead and that was my preference:).

But you'll really have to try them on and see the quality IRL.&nbsp; But I love boot shopping!!&nbsp; Are there enough boots/booties in the world?!!&nbsp; I think not!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271605 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 21:37:24 +0000 Catnip 1271605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer #3.&nbsp; At first I liked #2, and then noticed it's not leather.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271294 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 16:06:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1271294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the simplicity and sleekness of #3 - and being real leather is a bonus IMHO. I would love to see you try these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271293 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 16:04:38 +0000 Suz 1271293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb, in my experience it all comes down to the fit and it's all trial and error. Any of these could work, or none of them, and the only way to know is to give them a go. And good luck!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271291 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 16:02:24 +0000 Angie 1271291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #3.&nbsp;</p> <p>When is your b-day Debs?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271025 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 11:10:20 +0000 Claudia 1271025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271023 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 11:10:06 +0000 Jaime 1271023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is difficult without seeing them on. I am going to go out on a limb and say for a tall boot I would prefer leather. I have seen some great quality non-leather items recently but still, given how a boot bends and moves as you walk, I would have to see the non-leather to be convinced it looked as good.&nbsp;</p> <p>Putting that aside,&nbsp;I think I prefer the shape of #2 for you. You already have a suede wedge so a shiny heel makes sense to me!&nbsp;<br />Final thought: truthfully you always look so stylish you should go with your instincts, they have served you well so far! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271019 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 10:56:43 +0000 Astrid 1271019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1271016 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 10:50:57 +0000 Helenedith 1271016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1, I think the shape fits in with your style especially with the angle at the top and the pointy toe.</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1270977 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 08:33:53 +0000 Lyn D. 1270977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 for you Deborah, dependant on actual fit etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1270967 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 07:49:01 +0000 Debra 1270967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I like #3 best. I like that they don't have much going on, a little wedge heel is comfy and the high buckle for adjustment to calf size is a bonus.<br /> My second choice would be #1, they have a very modern look and a nice finish </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1270966 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 07:46:40 +0000 fuzzylogic 1270966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of the three options, I vote 1- I like a little hardware.....! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-opinions-please-1#post-1270963 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 07:40:16 +0000 Deborah 1270963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Fab Ones,</p> <p>I apologize for yet another boot post. Our cold weather is setting in and I actually find I have a wardrobe hole for a nice, simple pair of tall black boots that will worn with everything. My attention has been on ankle boots so tall boots have been neglected. </p> <p>Last night I perused 12 online shoe sites with very little success. I did find some amazing sleek leather boots but completely out of my price range:). So I have to work with what is affordable. </p> <p>For your info I have 1 pair of black suede flat over the knee boots, and a pair of wedge heel suede knee high boots. These are great bit no good for wet weather and not always the look I want particularly for dresses. I do have am very cheap pair is non leather black knee high boots but they are awful and I need to pass them on.</p> <p>So these are the three contenders and I would appreciate your thoughts. I will hold my opinion so as not to sway anyone.</p> <p>#1. I Love Billy "Molene" boot - not leather<br /> nice shape, almost pointy toe but has buckles</p> <p>#2. Gamins "Amazings" boot - not leather<br /> Very sleek, drawback is the there is visible stitching at the top of the boot</p> <p>#3. Bob Bons "Holly" Boot.<br /> Remind me of my Hush Puppies ankle boot (that's a postive). - these are<br /> leather</p> <p>I am prepared to go without rather than buy something for the sake of it, but a tall black boot is a bit of a necessity for me in winter. These are all modestly priced and I can keep my search up for the perfect pair (which I may need to save for).</p> <p>Do you think any of these would a good choice for me?</p> <p>Thanks so much. I really appreciate your input.</p> <p>xxxDeborah</p> <p>Ps...I know it's difficult not seeing them actually on. </p>
