Are these ugly?

BobLoblaw

I'm so fashion clueless.

Ugly? No.

I don't love them, though. I think because that faux sash looks like a bow and I despise bows on grown ladies' clothes.

BobLoblaw

"Grown lady" is making me chuckle.

Remember I don't dress up for work.

I don't dig them. I don't like is how round the toe is, nor do I dig the bow thingy.

oklagirl

The heel seems frumpy to me. And I'm also not a fan of the bow-ish thing. And I don't have an edict against all bows on grownup clothes.

Not ugly but not attractive enough to be worth that much dough

I like 'em but I'm not so sure about the stretchy panel on the back.

BobLoblaw

UGH. Boots are HARD. I have $95 store credit to Dillards and they have crap in the way of boots.

They're not ugly, but they seem somewhat frumpy to me. For that money, you could do much better. 

_Fenton

UGH, i missed the stretchy back.  Yeah, those are not good.  Not for a hundo.  Maybe if they were $30 from Target when you need to find something to wear within 48 hours.

I have gigantor calves so I understand why the panel is there. Try White Mountain boots, they sell that brand at DSW. Their calf widths are pretty big, plus mine stretched out even more as I wore them.

BobLoblaw

I'm blessed with gigantor calves too. Blows.

Since you guys are critiquing boots, what do you think of these?

I'm hoping you don't think they're superfug because they arrive today.

Those are cute Cali.  

 Bethie are you wanting to wear them outside of pants or with skirts or will you be wearing them under your pants??

I'm much too fat to wear them out of my pants right now. Maybe next year...maybe next year.

FallinAgain

I like them a lot.  But I'm a Clarks fan girl.

Chattermonkey

I'm fat too and refuse to wear them over my pants, so I feel ya.

noisy_penguin

I don't like the over the pants look. Even on skinny people.

Really? I think it looks nice. I am NOT a fan of the "boots over leggings" look that Verona is so fond of.

CaliopeSpidrman

I was against the boots over pants look, but it's grown on me to the point that I want to join in the trend.  I hate the look of boots with no heel, but I assume they'll grow on me and I'll get on board in about 2-3 years.

modb1rd

I like those Cali

noisy_penguin

I'm not terribly fashionable, so my opinion means very little, but I just don't like it. I'm weird.

Chattermonkey

I think it looks nice too.  I just hate leggings, period. 

 

I have these and they are super comfortable.

BobLoblaw

Oooh, thanks Monkey. Those are cute.

modb1rd

I love Born shoes and I think those look nicer.

CaliopeSpidrman

Well, I got my boots and I have to say that their measurement LIES.  They're on now and I hope it stretches them out, but I'm disappointed.

shanollee

I actually really like them, Bethie.  I'm no fashionista or anything, but I don't think they're fug.  Plus every pair of Clarks I've ever had have been SUUUUPER comfy, and I'm always a fan of that

_Fenton

I wear knee high boots over pants, jeans, leggings, jeggings, and tights. And just what the fukc are any of you going to do about it???

noisy_penguin

I'm going to destroy your clothing when you stay with me. Even though you probably won't be wearing boots in San Diego in July.

Jen&Joe06

I have chicken legs so boots never fit me. It makes me sad.

pdxmouse

I like them, but I also spent like 3 minutes looking for the polka dots. There are no polka dots.

HappyTummy613

I don't really like boots over pants because I'm vaguely reminded of Nazi uniforms.  I also don't understand boots over leggings because I can't imagine wearing something comfortable (legging) and then shoving your foot and lower leg into an uncomfortable shoe prison.
