Thanks for your help with the cargo skinnies. My next decisions:

1. Military booties: do these cut my legs off too much? I want them to add a bit of edge to some more conservative outfits. One thing I like about them is you can wear them lower (with a bigger cuff) or higher (with a smaller cuff). I have included photos both ways, both close up and with the outfit. I think if I am going to send them back I have to do it by Saturday. (I bought these from Amazon and then they immediately got cheaper at Endless, but I don't think Amazon pricematches.)

2. Faux fur coat: does it overwhelm me? Does the fur look scraggly? When I put this on, I can make it look good (at least to my eye) but as I wear it the fur seems to get staticky and then I start looking like a mangy cat. I'd want to wear it both with jeans and with dresses (to keep warm). The first shot is a bonus shot of a dress that my tailor and I redesigned. (I wouldn't wear it with these tights and boots, of course.)

Thanks for your help!
