I don't think they "steal the thunder" from the rest of your outfit per se. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77908 Fri, 10 Jul 2009 02:09:14 +0000 Sihaya 77908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dani, funny you should say that I totally thought of *you* when I bought both my shoes and my bag!!! Thanks for the compliments everyone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77866 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 21:59:44 +0000 Dani 77866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sihaya, you know I will defend the orange shoes I really like them with the outfit and I love the turquoise bag (shocking, I know), but I feel as if another element is missing. I agree with Maya that another small element of orange would be nice. I am in fact on the hunt for a nice understated necklace with orange to offset my orange sandals and give my outfits a little more pulled together look. That being said, I think you look wonderful and I would take the critique you received with a grain of salt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77861 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 21:53:04 +0000 hederka 77861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the shoes are fine as is, but if you wanted to incorporate more color maybe you could find a necklace, earrings, or pin that has a brighter color (orange, yellow) to wear with the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77777 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 17:34:02 +0000 Patience 77777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the shoes look fab with or without the bag. They are a pop of color for the outfit but not distracting. In fact, I think the pattern of your top balances the color perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77743 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 15:54:42 +0000 Sarah 77743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Psh, orange shoes are fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77741 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 15:53:01 +0000 Sihaya 77741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everybody. At the very least it sounds like it's not an eye sore or too much of a distraction in the wrong way. And Maya, I agree with you, I'll try to find a bit of color elsewhere to tie it in - in the future. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77652 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 10:19:57 +0000 rute 77652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those shoes are great! I love to do the same (a neutral outfit and a colorful shoes and bag) love to have them as the focus of the outfit!<br /> Love your style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77648 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 09:48:28 +0000 Kristen 77648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That person is crazy and those shoes look terrific. Wear them with pride! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77613 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 04:52:27 +0000 Maya 77613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, the way that person made it sound, it seemed like your shoes were glowing in the dark. They don't look *that* bright and even if they do, I think they're great. But I find that I'm more comfortable with more than one pop of color...even if it's small, like in a necklace or headband. Having just ONE color makes it seem like you just added it for the sake of having color somewhere...y'know? </p> <p>The whole outfit is really cute, and the bag definitely adds a nice complementary pop. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77607 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 04:13:04 +0000 shell 77607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i LOVE it! im a big fan of the "pop of color", so i think it's great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/attention-in-the-wrong-spot#post-77605 Thu, 09 Jul 2009 04:05:38 +0000 Sihaya 77605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I recently bought a pair of orange Arcopedico shoes that I love for their comfort and color. However, someone made a comment that when I wore these shoes with this outfit, all they could "see" were my shoes because of the bright color and it took away from the rest of me. I think what might be happening is that if the rest of my outfit is mostly neutral, it needs some pop of color to tie in the shoes. For example when I have tha bag along with me. Do you think so too? Are the shoes too distracting? Any feedback welcome. Thanks. </p> <p><a href="http://cid-5333dbd44da303c0.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/Orange%20shoes%20no%20bag.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://cid-5333dbd44da303c0.sk.....%20bag.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://cid-5333dbd44da303c0.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/Orange%20shoes%20with%20bag.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://cid-5333dbd44da303c0.sk.....%20bag.jpg</a></p> <p>P.s. you can't see this in the picture but the bag has some orange piping. </p>
