Do I see Blue Dovers in your future?????
Not blue, no. Suede of some sort if anything. Although I think 4 Dovers may be silly and I might move on to another model.

Suede sounds like a good option considering the ones you have already, although I can see why you might want a different model at this point. Any ideas as to which other model you might want to look at?

I am looking pretty hard at an all suede Harrogate on the 202.

Different strokes for different folks. Personally I needed no convincing, but then again these boots matched my watch. Besides blue goes well with a lot of things, typically I wear mine with jeans, and besides I have a number of other burgundy options already.
I get a lot of use out of my blue shoes and expect I would do likewise with an awesome pair of blue boots like these. That said, it's probably not the ideal first or second pair purchase for most.

Good point, I certainly wouldn't have made this choice as a second pair of boots. But now that I have more than just a few I can afford to have a bit more fun.

I will at some point have a blue Galway. Need to get at least one more "normal" makeup out of the way, first.

Remember the best way to avoid buying SC is to not look at SC. LOL
Haha. Better not speaketh it's name, either.

(pretty sure I unsubscribed from the thread for this reason)
