Sorry if this was already covered in other boot threads! I just saw these boots on clearance at DSW.

Yay or nay?

These can be worn cuffed:

Or these booties:

I'm sooo close to my next $10 rewards certificate...must.stop.shopping!

ETA: I have the issue of not being able to wear skinny jeans. I can wear straight-leg, but I think mine are just a little too loose at the bottom to tuck into boots. I would have to do the cuff over the tall ones I guess (or just wear my boot cut over them).

I was at the Museum of Science today and saw some people with the sweater boots. I have no idea if they're fashionable, but I don't care for them myself.

I can't get over that they look like slippers. Sorry I think they could be cute if the jeans tucked in but not sure of the odd bulkiness with cuffing. If they are comfy and you'll get wear out them though go for it and wear them with confidence!

I know they are in style, but I do not care for them. I think they look like slippers, and feel like the fabric would get dirty outside/not be a readily cleanable as leather.

I was happy to see all the equestrian and cowboy styles this year as well.

I wouldn't buy those. They're not my style at all.

I tried a pair like them on today and didn't like them on me. I love sweaters, so I like the look of the boot, but they didn't look right on me.

On to the next pair!!!

i have the ugg cardi boots, but dont really wear them. i usually wear them to walk around the neighborhood on nice days (better then sitting in my closet), but they were an impulse buy and i refuse to wear leggings.
