FRYE BOOT MODELING & REFERENCE THREAD! POST YOUR PICTURES! *Please Read First Post*

[just1morebag]

Haha, okay, so I tried and failed at taking pictures of a couple pairs of my frye boots. I just don't have a good mirror to reflect in, and can't get a good angle or my hand far enough from my body to take a good shot, but here is what resulted. Not very good, but you will get the idea.

Here are my new frye Carmen woven short boos in camel. These will be good for spring and summer. They seem like they will be quite comfortable, though I have really only worn them for a few minutes so far and my bf doesn't yet know I have these!

Hey ladies! I'm new to frye. Any recommendations for a first boot? I'm looking for a flat boot for work and weekends. My office is business casual and I'm tired of wearing my heeled boots. Im drawn to the shirley but have never seen it in person. also, I'm wondering if there are some other styles to look at? Any modeling pix would be great! Thanks!!!

i would suggest the veronica slouch,, kinda like a riding boot,, sorry no pics at the moment but google it,,, theyre hot!!

Aww...I'm sorry some people have treated you that way. I know how it feels. I have gotten the same treatment from a few also; even when I have spoken to them or in a reply about their awesome items. Yeah, it sucks because I see them replying to other people!
But screw it, I'm not going away because there's nice people who do take the time to talk to me here, even though at times I could probably be somewhat of an outcast. I don't buy luxury brands; I refuse to spend over $400 on a bag. It's just not my style and I have a style that's all my own. I think everyone has a place here, if they love getting nice stuff from time to time.
I'm so glad to hear that you love your Frye's though! Oh, how could one not? I'm usually 9 or 9.5 and 9 is perfect perfect perfect for me in Frye. Yeah, they won't be your last pair, LOL. What color did you get? Are those the ones with the lug sole? I got the Carson Lug; my first Frye. I LOVE them.

Try not to worry to much about the "mean" girls,, i think alot of times everyone rushes in to do their posts not really taking alot of time to do responses except if they just happen to see a friend or familiar poster,,, its not a personal thing... hopefully most of the time,,, but yes there are going to be some prima donnas just as there are anywhere else,,, so dont let it discourage you,,, keep at it

Triple strap Carmens!!! mmm LOVE!!

 

[whoops]

Any opinions or any model pix of the Shirley riding boot or Lindsay plate???

I see a lot of the same names repeated like Melissa, dorado, Shirley, and Lindsay. Do these refer to the toe? Or anything specific ? I'm new to frye so sorry if its an odd question.

You might take a look at the Melissa Button style. Beautiful, low heeled riding style. I tried them on because they were the only pair of Frye boots the store I was in had close to my size. I needed to find out what size I took before ordering online. (I hate sending things back). If I didn't already have a similar pair in another brand, I would have left with them. SO comfy and gorgeous boots. You might try going to Zappos.com as they carry a lot of Frye styles to look at.

I also think the Melissa Button boot would be perfect for a business casual situation. I own a pair and they are soooo comfortable and versatile. A couple of styles are on sale on Zappos right now. I haven't been able to figure out how to take a good modeling shot but if you just google Melissa Button Frye you'll find tons of pics from fashion blogs. Good luck in your search. You really can't go wrong with Frye.

I LOVE the look of the Lindsay plate. I tried to buy a pair, at a steal, but my order got canceled because they were out of stock. As far as the style names go, sometimes they vary by height (e.g. the Harness 8R, 12R and 15R are all the same boot, in different shaft heights), other times the styles are slightly different (e.g. Dorado riding vs. Dorado low vs. Dorado shortie, etc. etc.) but have a similar toe and foot shape.

Thank you!!! I'll have to check out the veronica. They seem so cute! Even if I buy just for weekends.

I've seen this style around and been meaning to try it! I saw 6pm has a great sale but that no free returns

I love the dark brown Lindsay plate! Definitely want to try on in person. Thank you for the explanation. In the beginning I kept saying how cute the Shirley is not realizing there are several versions!

Here are my new Frye Campus 14G's. I have more dressy tall riding style boots, but I needed a nice casual pair of boots to wear both under straight leg or boot cut jeans, and also to wear skinny jeans tucked into the boot. These are perfect...I LOVE them!

Here is a full length shot my husband took as we were walking out the door to go to lunch. Love these boots, even on an old fat lady like me.

Geez, I hate having my picture taken! (I HATE my hair ...I'm trying to be patient while I'm growing it out from a short cut that I didn't like as much as I thought I would, and I'm getting over an eye injury to my left eye which is why I have a slightly black eye. I'm a wreck! So, just focus on the nice boots... LOL!) I should have held my new Kooba Jonnie bag in front of me to hide my hips...

Awww....thank you. I rarely pose for pictures unless they are dog show win photos with my dogs. I always feel the dogs are the main focus of the picture and most of the time people looking at them are more interested in the dog and not paying much attention to the handler.

I know what you mean; I am semi-retired from showing (don't have any prospects at the moment)
