Often the hardest part of putting together an outfit for me is finding the shoes in a narrow size to go with it. How I wish the Me Too Swans came in narrow! I still haven't found a comfortable pair of ballet flats that will stay on my feet. That's next on my list.</p> <p>I think it was Niva who said she was looking for a similar pair of T-straps. I really like the Kendra patent T-straps on the jcrew link. Thanks for the help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65930 Mon, 18 May 2009 05:26:49 +0000 lwc 65930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that you're okay. And Lord knows that I know how hard it is to find narrow shoes, and that they are quickly becoming extinct. Good times...</p> <p>I think that your chunky heeled t-straps, while not on the cutting edge of fashion, are streamlined and simple enough to hold their own in the midst of what's out there in the market. I found these to give you an idea of various chunky heeled t-strap offerings:</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/shoes/http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod78200056&#038;parentId=cat17930733&#038;masterId=cat15470740&#038;index=138&#038;cmCat=cat000000cat000141cat13030734cat15470740cat17930733heels/PRDOVR~15325/15325.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../15325.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2966152/0~2376778~2372808~2372949~2383591?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=2383591&#038;P=3http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3014228/0~2376778~2372808~2381853~2381854?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=2381854&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....4&#038;P=1</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3017198/0~2376778~2372808~2381853~2381854?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=2381854&#038;P=2" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....4&#038;P=2</a></p> <p>Looking forward to sharing more shoe stories in the near future... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65913 Mon, 18 May 2009 03:05:27 +0000 Debora 65913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I appreciate your input and will be feel more confident wearing them now. I actually found the receipt in the box and I bought them in 1999! Glad to hear they still look current.</p> <p>Angie -- Thanks for the kind words. I'm thrilled to be a part of the forum and maybe next time I'll be braver and show above the knees :)</p> <p>Maya -- Yes, the straps are made of a stretchy/elastic material and the heels are patent leather. They were made by Van Eli and are so, so comfortable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65897 Mon, 18 May 2009 02:18:02 +0000 Maya 65897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love chunky heels! Keep! Is the upper made of a stretchy/elastic material? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65890 Mon, 18 May 2009 02:08:46 +0000 Vani 65890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great. In fact I have been looking for sandals similar to those, the chunky heels are always so comfortable. And the T-strap style looks very current. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65882 Mon, 18 May 2009 01:51:02 +0000 Angie 65882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good to have you onboard, Debora and fab job posting your first post.

If you ever stumble upon an updated replacement, then toss/give away. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65826 Sun, 17 May 2009 21:48:44 +0000 cciele 65826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The t-strap looks current, but I haven't seen that heel shape in awhile. However, they look really cute on you and if they comfortable, I say keep them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65821 Sun, 17 May 2009 21:14:49 +0000 Louise 65821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think they look outdated. They look great with that skirt x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-outdated#post-65803 Sun, 17 May 2009 17:19:14 +0000 Debora 65803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Everyone!</p> <p>I've been a fan of YLF for over a year now and have decided to join in. I love this site! Angie is amazing and I am impressed by readers' friendliness and great sense of style.</p> <p>I'd like to know if these shoes are outdated, specifically the chunky heels. I've had them about 10 years but am hesitant to toss them because they are comfortable and I have narrow fussy feet. It's getting harder and harder to find narrow shoes.</p> <p>This is my first time using Photobucket so I hope this works.
