…so far.

these fabienne boots had my eye the instant i saw them in j.crew’s new pieces for fall. i had such high hopes that these were, in fact, the perfect fall boot – that elusive cool-weather staple.

alas, that black trim that was all set to make these the perfect fall boot has instead turned them into something sad…for that trim is not regular leather, but patent. i don’t think that pulls these squarely into the realm of streetwalker…but it’s not a positive thing.

what do you think? can you overlook the shine for the overall chic?
