I just bought myself these boots. I haven't been able to get them off my mind since spotting them a few weeks ago. I haven't bought myself a present in months and these were at an amazing price ($60!), and my birthday is coming up...
What do you guys think? My friend told me they look a bit S & M ![]() Any ideas what to wear them with (colors - tights - leggings - jeans- dresses) ?? |

That's too many buckles for me. But considering they are flat and brown I don't see them being S&M at all, if that is your concern.

I'm not a fan of all the buckles, but as I always say - you never know until you put them on!

I like them. A little busy you can easily play them down by keeping the rest of your outfit simple.

I really like the color but maybe one or two too many buckles for my taste

Hi everyone!
I was a little discouraged by all the dislikes, but I do appreciate everyone's honesty! Thank you girls! Even with the nays, I still looooove them and can't wait to receive them and try them on - hopefully they look great on and in person. I normally wouldn't like so many buckles either, but for some reason they appeal to me so much and I think the flat heel grounds them and I like the slim shape of the ankle - keeps them feminine in my opinion. I like how it mixes riding style with biker style. The boots also come in black - which I think looked more S&M when my friend mentioned them... (pic posted)Keep your opinions and styling ideas coming... I may post modeling pics but I'm kind of shy! |

Jeneen, I think it's hard to tell by this pic only, so please post the mod pics and maybe we can help out more. BUT, the most important thing is that YOU love them.

lots of buckles for me, but if you like them and can work them well with your wardrobe/look go for them

It's so funny how opinions differ. I agree that the #1 concern is how you feel. Personally I guffaw over the fact your friend thinks they look S&M, because I think they're pretty mild. I am not a fan of the gold tone buckles, but I don't wear any gold, ever, so again.. my opinion. I like them in black a lot more.. but it goes with my aesthetic. I think they're pretty versatile, honestly.. skinny jeans, some skirts..
