Opinions on this pale blue boot

annagybe

So I LOVE the color. I wanted to try it on when I was Portland, but they didn't have it in the boutique yet. I'm a little hesitant on the square toe.

I like the color too, but I understand the hesitation on the square toe.

Is it kind of a periwinkle or cornflower blue? I really like those tones. Hard to tell in the online photo.

I like it. The square is rounded off enough at the corners that it looks modern to me.

Beautiful! I understand your hesitation, though. My first thought was, "Ooooh beautiful!" My second was, "How are these going to hold up to scuffs?" They look like they are softly buffed leather, so if you do get them, definitely get them treated prior to wearing. A single black scuff on the toe would be heartbreak. I would pass personally, but only because I need a pair of $300 boots to wear for a few years for the investment to work for me. They are delicious, though! And the square toe doesn't bother me at all. Makes them look like motorcycle boots, which I love for their Chrissie Hynde sexy-tough-chick appeal.

I love them but I think they will get filthy. Although they're doing some good stuff with leather these days, maybe they're treated?

Those are really cute booties! The only reason I would hesitate is because I think a light color like that can really make your legs look cut off - unless of course, you wear it with a lighter colored pant/jeans or tights.

I love them for you Anna - with your newfound love of pastels. Spray them with protectant and go forth. I think the square looks modern in these almost like the square of real ballet shoes (snubbed?)
