23. Which is why I voted Boots.
If I'm gonna look silly, I might as well look sexy.

2. The Boots
They're more kick-ass, imo.

:) :hi:

6. I wouldn't buy either one
because me and high heels don't get along
but if I were you, I'd go with the boots.

7. I like them both. BUT. I have never spent $100.00 on a pair
of shoes, ever.

The mary janes are nice.

32. Sheesh, hubby (BrotherBuzz) and I have been on & off the computer, he's waiting to get on
and I'm rushing and making mistakes!!! :blush:
Anyhow, here's what I meant to post-

If you walk a lot, the boots look a bit too pointed and high-heeled.
Sorry to be a nay-sayer all the time about fashionable shoes, but having had bunion surgery in my early twenties, I cringe when I see women wearing those pencil-pointed stilettos they hobble around in!
I have wide feet, too, so soft leather or material that stretches are best.

These are kind of in between your two choices-
(I like Zappos, because if you click on the photos they show all the different views of the shoe)

9. The first ones
The second pair would make you look old.

12. You are not old!
My sister was born in '72 and she wouldn't touch those.

And sorry I haven't heard it used.

Who makes the Mary Janes? They are really cute and I love the non-slip grippy soles.

22. I love really good shoes.
I am light on my feet, so they last for me. Even if I walk a lot I can make shoes last a long time. I voted for the Mary Janes. They are too cute and I don't think they make you look old (I'm 36). I think you have great taste in shoes. I loved the Carlos Santana shoes you posted a while ago.

17. I just got similar (but different) boots the other day.
Mine zip up and have a buckle.

I have a "thing" for shoes.

I love them both though.

29. Well, neither on me.
:-)

They're both a gorgeous pair of shoes. If I DID buy either, I'd choose pair number 2.

31. Go barefoot, you shoe elitist.
Don't you know there are people starving in the world? :eyes:

:hide:

I like either, although I truly do prefer barefoot-ness to anything else. :D

33. I voted #2 because they look like you might be able to wear them more often then the other pair.
But, I realize that, at least with the women I know, shoe shopping isn't about practical.
