I was thinking about ordering the dark brown Booker boots and was a little disappointed when I saw them in the store. However they only had the black and lighter brown.
They looked nicer online and seemed to run big. Has anyone seen the dark brown, and how are they?
I'm curious, why were you disappointed? And were these the ones with the buckle or without? I was looking at those online and considering trying out the light brown ones.

It was the plain ones without the buckle. When I saw them online I thought they were very rich looking and looked like very good quality for the price. IRL I didn't think the leather looked as nice as I thought it would. Maybe they would fit better with socks, but i also thought the ankle part was big and so it wrinkled a lot.

Oh, that's disappointing. And you also thought they ran big? I am still considering trying them because I think I need extended calf size for boots to wear over jeans, and there aren't that many attractive and affordable options for bigger calves.

I would try them. I tried on the black leather and it just looked a little flat to me, but maybe the light brown will be better. It is so hard to find nice riding boots at that price.
 
I had the opportunity to try on these beauties this weekend. At first, I was like :nuts: at the price. Thinking to myself, 'they're very similar to Prada, I could get some this similar by Prada on sale'. So I left the store without them. Then last night, I bit the bullet and ordered them, afraid they'd sell out

Depending on the shoe, I'm an 8, 8.5 or 9in J Crew. I purchased these in. An 8.5, perfect fit, perfect pitch and just beautiful :love::loveeyes:

hi ladies

just wondering how you all find the no2 skirt in double serge wool compares with double serge cotton in terms of sizing, im a loose-ish size 2 and never tried a 0 - should i stick with a 2 or does it run large?

thank you!

PS: still lusting after the heartthrob blouse if anyone sees it!

Check eBay for the blouse, don't think it's in stores anymore.

The wool one will run big as well so make sure you size down. Trust me! I'm a 4/6 but because of J.Crew's vanity sizing, I'm always a size 2 in their skirts. Also keep in mind that the pencil skirt will stretch a bit with wear.
