After seeing Beth's comment (a fellow modern classic gal) on Pheobe's fab outfit today (featuring the leather version of the Aquitalia 'royal' booties) I'm thinking these might work for me after all...but I'm always torn when a boot is offered in both leather and suede. I guess it boils down to personal preferences...I know that getting suede introduces another texture in what could be an all-black outfit, but black leather is just a nice classic. With Aquitalia, you know the suede will wear well, too. Thoughts??
