If not, I vote black for sure, because the taupe will not be as comfortable or supportive without a a strap. And I quite like the black ones, anyway, and think they can work with quite a lot that you are bringing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-the-shoe-race#post-945400 Fri, 31 May 2013 02:12:12 +0000 Carole 945400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>me too, like the black best! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-the-shoe-race#post-945398 Fri, 31 May 2013 02:12:01 +0000 sarah 945398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it all depends on what "wardrobe hole" you'll be filling - how will you want to wear them most?

But I'll still have to wear a belt, and it makes me less certain of what belt to take.</p> <p>I can easily walk all day in either pair.&nbsp; What do you think?&nbsp; Is one more polished than the other?&nbsp; Which shoe should win the race to come to CA with me? </p>
