But here are a few thoughts -- if you semi tuck your top, that extends the leg line (so you can wear a contrasting shoe without as much a sacrifice in height.) Also, PPL flares come down lower to the ground (vs. skinnies or straights) further extending the line. So I honestly think you can wear these with any colour shoe that works with your overall outfit, without losing much in the way of "looking taller." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227920 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 13:53:38 +0000 kkards 1227920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>sveta, i usually like to match my shoes to my pants (i.e. column of color) because i like to believe it will make me look taller. that's partly why i was having trouble with these pants.</p> <p>i appreciate the feedback.&nbsp;i think i'll start with the mushroom shoes, since as carter pointed out, they are currently PPL.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227640 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 01:40:38 +0000 Sveta 1227640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they all work depending on the other outfit details and your hair color and also your style preference. I prefer my shoes "pop" but others prefer them to blend in - what is your preference? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227637 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 01:36:03 +0000 Suz 1227637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them with the mushroom and those will more or less bookend your hair, right? I'd try with those first and see if they are wearable. If not, then hem for the lighter shoes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227612 Sun, 20 Apr 2014 00:17:08 +0000 Lantana 1227612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All three will work when the hem is taken up. I really like the light shoes but honestly, the others work too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227596 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 23:41:30 +0000 kerry 1227596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooooh, I tried these pants too but didn't bite. Now you're making me want to order them! The grey is more flattering for me but I'm in love with the yellow. I agree to hem for the shoes you're most likely to wear. I prefer the lighter but then I have light coloured hair so often like to bookend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227368 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 18:00:39 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1227368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Color wise I like the third, but don't hem for them if they're too high and you'll never wear them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227322 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 16:35:25 +0000 EveningMood 1227322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer 2, but they all work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227294 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 15:47:24 +0000 carter 1227294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since they are PPL for the mushroom shoes, I would probably style and wear them at least once with those. Then launder, if you haven't already, before deciding which shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227274 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 15:30:26 +0000 Angie 1227274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have to assess which heels you'll actually wear with the pants the most. Then go with that height.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love the light coloured pumps. They pop.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227273 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 15:29:50 +0000 Adelfa 1227273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the mushroom if you can tolerate the heels. Subtle and interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227272 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 15:29:21 +0000 Catnip 1227272@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go with the shoes in pic #1 since they are the least noticeable.&nbsp; Your pants appear to be flares, and will therefore be very long.&nbsp; The shoes won't show much in any case.&nbsp; The shoes in pic #3 would also look good, but since they are higher you would be limited to wearing the pants with these shoes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/before-i-hem-what-color-shoes#post-1227267 Sat, 19 Apr 2014 15:24:33 +0000 kkards 1227267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i bought these new pants, and need to get them hemmed, but 1st i need to figure out what shoes to wear with them. i don't know why, but i'm kind of stumped. i bought the dark grey, but black feels to heavy, do you think&nbsp;the nude feel too light? or should i go with the 3rd pair, which i would call mushroom, but are about an inch higher than almost every other pair of shoes i own.&nbsp;<br />(also, apologizes for the wrinkled pants, this have been sitting, folded for the last 2 weeks while i debated with myself, before i decided to just ask for help and advice)</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/30375901.jsp?cm_vc=SEARCH_RESULTS">http://www.anthropologie.com/a.....CH_RESULTS</a></p> <p> </p>
