Have Your Say: Black or beige?

When I spotted these Esprit boots over at Spartoo, I knew they were just the thing for the transitional season (or summer, as we like to call it here in the UK!). But then I realised I had a dilemna... which colour? I can't really justify buying both pairs, so do I get black or beige?

Or alternatively, do you think they are ug-ly and I should get neither!!?
