I so don't want to feel like this given the fact that:
A) These are really, really comfy. As in 'these boots are meant for walking' level of comfy. As in 'I would wear this while being a tourist in NYC' comfy.
B) They are quirky and unique AND a different color from what I am used to.

BUT I'm not sure they are me. I could still return them (well, exchange them, they don't do refunds), so if I can't make them work for me, I don't have to keep them.

This is not the best outfit because I have issues with fall-outfits in general, and most of my cold-wardrobe is stored somewhere in my apartment, so I had to make do with the little available right now. I also quite dislike this skirt because it is too long (makes my thighs look too slim) and somehow that leather jacket, which I used to love, doesn't fit me so well anymore. I like #4 much, much better.

I found #5 in the same image folder and thought it could be useful for style references. #6 is me with my old-and-cheap knock-off of Dr Marteens (the patent pleather is not that shiny anymore, I tell you that).

For other style references, I feel my style leans towards those of fellow members Suz, Sveta or Lyn*, but feel attracted to the toughness of Rae, Janet and Aria and the cutetsiness of Nicoleb, if that helps any.

ETA: I went back to the store today and returned the boots. It was just too much work for me. I could deal with the roughness of the style but the color killed me. As beautiful as the greenish blue was, it worked with no bottoms in my wardrobe, except for my black pants (and tights). I just can't spend 100 euros in a pair of boots I can wear only with black. And I know, I know, so many people would pair that color with so many other colors, but I am not those other people, I am myself, and I know myself well enough to accept that I just can't get past too many color combos that are commonly liked by the rest of the population but not by me (like, say, black and dark brown). And I have too many shoes that were supposed to work with everything but they didn't, and they have gone unworn.

The good thing is, it seems like they are ordering the same style in black, and they are to call me when they get them so that I can go and see. SA said they have a glossy finish that will take away some of the darkness of the color (not patent though). Hopefully these will work for me in black. I'm planning on maybe getting some colored laces (like, say, teal? lol) to add just a tad of easy fun to the combo.
