Yay or Nay Wednesday

lattice-boots.jpg

You gave an 80% 'Nay' to last week's pair of "sock boots", and I have to say, I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one who has no love at all for this particular style!

We have another boot for you to cast judgement on this week. These suede peep-toe lattice boots are $125 from Urban Outfitters, who say "There is a lot going on with these soft suede boots and all of it is awesome." There's no disputing the first half of that sentence, but I'd venture to suggest there may be some dissent over the second part. What do you think, readers? Vote Yay or Nay after the jump!

Yay or Nay Wednesday

yay_or_nay_sock_boots.jpg

Looks like most of you agreed with my assesment of Office's slightly witchy-looking shoes last week - 65% of you said 'Nay' to them, and only 1% were undecided, which confirms their status as very much a love or hate item!

What about this week's shoe - or boot, rather - though? Now, sock boots are one of those things that have always puzzled me. I just can't imagine wanting to wear them myself, yet designers keep on churning them out year after year, which makes me think that someone must like them. Is it you? Do you like these Patrizia Pepe sock boots, which are £356 at ASOS? Vote yay or nay after the jump!

Yay or Nay Wednesday

office_daphne.jpg

You didn't have a whole lotta love for alice + olivia's red boots for Payless Shoe Source last week, although, to be fair, quite a lot of you (over 8%) were undecided. Over 60% of you said "nay" to the red patent numbers, though, so let us banish them from our minds and move onto this week's shoe...

This week, you see before you Office's 'Daphne' - a low heeled, point toed shoe with - count 'em - a total of six buckles to fasten them with. Not a shoe to buy if you tend to find yourself leaving the house in a hurry then, but what do you think of them? Vote yay or nay in the poll you'll find after the jump!

Yay or Nay Wednesday

payless_shoe_source.jpg

Last week's Yay or Nay was a close-run thing. In the end, the Yay votes emerged victirious, with 53% of you saying you loved Dorothy Perkins' metallic jazz pumps, but 40% of you didn't care for them at all, and the rest were undecided, which makes me think this is probably one of those shoes that splits opinions.

What of this week's selection, though? These red patent wedge ankle boots are by Alice + Olivia for Payless, and although you can't see it in this picture, they also have a peep toe. That makes them very "this season", of course, but would you wear them? Vote Yay or Nay after the jump!

Yay or Nay Wednesday

It was a clear "Nay" vote for last week's high heeled Doctor Marten Boots, with 58% of you saying you couldn't stand them, while 28% loved them and the rest were undecided.

This week I want to ask you about the jazz shoe trend that's been taking over the high street, and specifically about these jazz shoes from Dorothy Perkins. This is a style that's going to be inescapable this winter, but will you actually be wearing it, or will you just say "nay" to flat lace-up and reach for the stilettos instead? Vote yay or nay in the poll you'll find after the jump...

Yay or Nay Wednesday

After an early surge of popularity, the "nays" just scraped it in last week's Yay or Nay, with 46.9% of you loving the boots, 50% hating the zebra print boots and the rest undecided. The boots in question were by Hale Bob, and if you were one of those who voted "Yay", you can find them for $139.99 at Heels.com.

This week I'm not even going to try hiding the identity of the designer. These are very clearly Doctor Marten boots, but they're Docs-with-a-difference, the difference being that high(ish) wooded heel. What do you think of them? Does the heel change the way you feel about Doc Martens in general? And are those feelings "Yay" or "Nay"? You'll find the poll under the jump, and the boots at Browns...

Yay or Nay Wednesday

Well, I think it's safe to say that last week's shoe didn't go down well. 74% of you said 'Nay' to Sugar's 'Princess Leia' shoes, so if you are going to be getting into the tartan trend, you're certainly not going to be doing it with these shoes, that's for sure?

If you don't like tartan, though, what do you think about zebra? I have a feeling I already know the answer to this question, but will you say Yay or Nay to the zebra print boots above, which come complete with bow decoration? You'll find a poll under the jump so you can tell us what you think!
