You sound like someone who can definitely pull these off, Lady!

Well, if anyone cares what an olde mom thinks, I think they are great!!!!
And the BEST part is:
They are different (important sometimes! )
and
They are 60 bucks!!!!!!!
Please!
You are gonna get your money's worth outta those if you only wear them a few times!!!!! Gotta love it!
and happy birthday

Only keep it if you can get away with wearing them over jeans or tights. Otherwise, useless if they are going to be covered by pants, and the buckles will look bulky under pants and snag/get stuck to your pants.

Thanks ahertz - I'm still loving on the boots and waiting for them to get here - the website took 3 days after I ordered them to ship them and I will post pics as soon as I can.

marbella8 - Yes I think I will only wear them over tights,socks, or jeans - I think the buckles would look kooky and bulky under pants!

uab*mom - thanks for the vote of confidence and the birthday wishes . I had a pretty terrible birthday, actually, but hopefully the boots arriving this week and my dbf promising me a nice dinner and relaxing weekend is helping to soothe things

I like those! I think you should try with an horse-riding style (dont know the exact name,sorry). They will look good even with jeans,but keep the outfit simple oh,and happy birthday!

Thank you Letyina for the birthday wishes and for weighing in and thanks for the tip on dark skinny jeans Adore

I just read on the tracking website that the boots were delivered! It looks like my neighbor or the front office signed for them - hopefully I get my hands on them tonight. I'm glad I bought them when I did b/c the sizes are selling out fast online.

^ Will do Coachgirl!

I just have to find my camera charger - I lost track of it when I moved a few weeks ago - I'll be on the hunt tonight.

I have small calves, but I read a review that they were a little tight in the calves - I may hit up Express or TJMAxx for some leggings and tights as well.

Gosh I'd give anything to have small calves!

i think modeling pictures would help....sometimes it really depends on how you wear them and how you match them with your clothes.
they look fine to me so far...

^ Very true juneping

The boots are being held hostage at the front office
They open after I go to work and close before I come home I tried to sneak in there this morning and convince the office cleaning lady to give me the package, but she couldn't. LOL - what a girl won't do for her shoes!

I may have to wait to pick them up this weekend, but dbf said he may take a break from work to pick them up for me today - bless him - he is doing everything he can to make sure I have a better week and weekend!

I think they are really cute. I saw a girl on campus the other day and she had those boots in the brown color. What website did you order them from? I was thinking of ordering me a pair.

^ I got them from Piperlime - they are Michael Antonio "Miga" - I would post the direct link but the website is having tech issues right now.

Edit: here you go: http://piperlime.gap.com/browse/prod...scid=704317012

^ boo sorry babe! try googling the maker and model and see what you come up with. They sold out of sizes just this last week. When I ordered them on the 6th, they had all the sizes.

So - my darling bf picked them up from the office and they are AWESOME! I'm thrilled! Too tired to try on with outfits now, but pics tomorrow. They are fitted in the calf, and my calves are 13" in circumference at their widest point (I think that's below average? I've always been told I had small calves even though I was a ballet dancer for years) - I'll have to find some skiiiiny jeans and leggings... more shopping - DARN!
