Of course, this comes right after I read Mo's post about animal prints. xD

I really like these booties in theory, but I don`t know if they would just look tacky on. They're pretty cheap, but its an online order, so of course I have to fill up my cart to get to free shipping. xD

What do you think? To buy or not to buy?

I love me some zebra but these are maybe too much of a good thing. I would love them more if the platform was a solid color. I say pass.

Ha ha - just because I'm over it doesn't mean anyone else has to be!! But FWIW, I think they are a little over the top.

That is a lot of shoe. How do you plan to wear them? They are a bold statement!

I'm thinking I'll probably wear them with skinnies or leggings and probably a solid top and possibly with a cardigan or blazer over top. The one outfit I have actually in my mind is wearing them with red skinny jeans and probably a black tank or tee. I might also try with black tights and a neutral dress, likely black or cream. I probably wouldn't wear any other prints or anything that's not pretty basic with these since they're so loud by themselves.

I love the zebra print, but what about the height? Are you okay with that? There is a lot of shoe going on there.

I think they're fun shoes but how high quality are they?

I think they could easily look cheap and tacky if they're made of low quality materials and scuff easily.

If they're higher quality materials, I think they could be quite the statement with a more subdued outfit.

Mine were very hard to style, but I do still love them. What's return shipping like if the quality or comfort are not up to snuff?

@Vicki: I'm ok with the height. Most of the newer shoes I've bought have been around 3-4 inches in height, and I'm pretty comfortable with that now.

@Sylvie: Not high quality. They're from F21, which is low quality, but it's kind of hit and miss as to whether it'll *look* high quality; sometimes stuff from there does, sometimes it doesn't in my experience.

@rae: *waves back*

They're not final sale, so I can return by mail for a refund or in-store for credit or exchange.

They're cool! But would they sit in your closet?

Thanks Angie! I think they're cheap enough to just try. Also paying student fees at the same time really puts this purchase into perspective (as in: what's another $60 for something fun? xD).

@taylor: I'll make sure to do some WIWs!

@rachylou: I think they would. More covered up shoes are always ok for me, since I live in a colder climate, and my style is pretty broad, but I think mostly built off simpler pieces and layering, so I feel like they would probably work in that regard.
