Are these ugly?

[krisim]

I'm looking for black boots to wear to work with skirts this fall/winter. I need a low heel or wedge (up to 2.5 inches) since I walk alot. I have relatively thin calves and I've had a hard time finding anything that I like that fits well. (I've ordered a few pairs and the calves have been too wide to wear with skirts, and look like clown boots!)

These are 40%, please give me your honest opinions!

I don't like the heel. I would go for a wedge.

Here's a wedge that I've been eyeing, I'm just not sure if the calves are going to be small enough because I really can't find any review of them anywear. And these are cheap, which is a bonus!

I like the original pair. I think the wedges look cheap.

I am not crazy about these.

I love a hidden wedge boot. These are $79 but are P/U.

I like those, have you seen them in person?
I wish that VS would list more details on their website, like the heel height and the calf dimensions!

I haven't seen the boots in person, but the shaft looks more on the narrow side to me. The website is not helpful, at all. I was trying to look at the heel height and circumference for you.

Thanks! I sent an email to their CS, hopefully I'll hear back! It looks like they list the heel height for some of their boots but not all of them, that is just so random!

I love this style of boots. It's based on the Lanvin boots that I have lusted after for 3 years.

I can't believe I missed this boot for you. This one is leather!!

Hmm, I may get the taupe pair.

Oh, it's available on Amazon and it lists the heel and circumference. They are too tall, 2.75 inches and 15" circumference.

I can work with that heel height, as long as they are comfy when I wear them! The shaft height might be too tall...I ordered a pair of nine west boots with a 18.5 shaft (2.75 inch heels) and 15.5 inch opening and they came to the middle of my knees and were too wide!

They are so ugly. The heel is terrible and the boot looks rreally cheap
