I have bad knees (shoes must be stable and not "hard" on footfalls) and my feet require arch support, so it sounds like we need the same things. I can wear the Taos sneaker all day. The support is very good. I'm not sure about the heel padding. I find them comfy.</p> <p>Hope you find the perfect pair to replace your beloved purples! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727567 Thu, 15 Sep 2016 16:26:08 +0000 jacquez 1727567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Linda, LOVE those sneakers.

When I wear bright tops, I tend to wear black shoes, or leopard, to highlight the bright and that I'm just snapping with color that day. My pewter shoes are more subtle and so I pair them with softer tops.</p> <p>I have no idea if what I'm doing has any fashion logic. I just like how it looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727532 Thu, 15 Sep 2016 14:26:16 +0000 Thirkellgirl 1727532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been trying on black shoes to wear with dresses that have a lot of black in them, and I can't bring myself to pull the trigger.

My favourite is with bottoms that reveal a flash of ankle -white crops, white and faded rolled jeans, pale blue ankle pants. I also have a skirt with silver threads running through it that is a slam dunk. </p> <p>Frankly, when I can't figure which footwear goes best with an outfit I'll default to the silver - they never let me down. Oh! They also happen to be made of super soft Italian leather and are very comfy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727294 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 23:59:32 +0000 Joyce B 1727294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's great, Sterling!

I think they elevate a blah outfit just as K. Period said. I did hesitate with my really really bright silver Fitflops, but I got used to them. I'm not sure if I like people mentioning my shoes or not. And they will with silver. If they say nice shoes, I'm okay with that. But I don't like it if they say something like wow those shoes are really silver. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727290 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 23:48:54 +0000 K. Period. 1727290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too wear silver or pewter as a neutral. &nbsp;The funny thing is that you may initially scratch your head about how to wear them, but once you start wearing them, you'll find yourself always reaching for them. I like them to add a little extra oomph to an outfit that would seem blah with black. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727287 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 23:40:21 +0000 Anonymous 1727287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Joyce</b>&nbsp;-- I tried them on when I got home. &nbsp;They are a little tight across the right foot, but I think they will loosen up nicely. &nbsp;<u>I love them</u>. &nbsp; I am going to search for a gunmetal clutch now. &nbsp;YAY. &nbsp;So HAPPY. &nbsp;</p> <p>I noticed that a lot of Forum Members collected this particular shoe. &nbsp;I would like to add my voice to Angie's. &nbsp;They are indeed fabulous!!!!!! &nbsp;I have wide feet and I think they will be perfect for me. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727281 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 22:58:46 +0000 Traci 1727281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Echoing what Joy said...I find metallic shoes softer and that they tend to go with everything. &nbsp;I have several pairs of shoes in a lighter pewter than you showed here and I wear them with anything and everything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727274 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 22:38:04 +0000 Anonymous 1727274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also use silver and pewter shoes as neutrals, but like to sometimes use a silver/pewter belt or bag with them, although I don't think it's needed. I have come to prefer a dark metallic like these to the heavier look of black footwear. They seem to go with everything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727272 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 22:36:00 +0000 Joyce B 1727272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's the same color I got for my daughter. She will wear them (if they fit and if she likes them) with a light blue bridesmaid dress, I think they will go nicely but the boss will decide. She is also more comfortable with black shoes although she has medium brown hair and can look fab with light colored shoes.<br /> I like your post as we can get more ideas on how to wear silver shoes.<br /> How did they fit you? Are you pleased with them?<br /> I got for myself the black and the snake print but may only keep one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727265 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 22:19:25 +0000 Jenava 1727265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear mine with white or colors, typically. &nbsp;They get the most love in outfits that would otherwise looking heavy with dark accessories. &nbsp;</p> <p>That said, my favorite outfit this summer was a white off-the-shoulder blouse, fluid black linen wide-leg trousers and my mirror-finish silver slides. &nbsp;</p> <p>So, I guess it has more to do with the style and "vibe" of the shoe for me, than color coordination. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727256 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 21:55:20 +0000 Suz 1727256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think what El Cee said is really true. The first time you wear any colour of footwear you're not used to, it can feel peculiar. Also, you might find yourself gawking at your own feet for the first few wears. Sometimes in shock and sometimes in awe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-how-do-you-wear-silver-footwear#post-1727255 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 21:53:44 +0000 deb 1727255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that gunmetal color and have had several pair over the years. The bright true silver like Angie wears I am not fond of. Too much upkeep for me. the gunmetal or pewter does not show scuff marks. </p>
