These are 98% cotton instead of having a lot of stretch, and I like that.<br /> Okay Beth Ann, the semi- tuck is winning, and I can probably use the Keds some for casual knocking around in shorts type wear, but not for the BF look. I think that is good advice.<br /> Suz, the Guything that was offered in suede and leathers this winter looked much more flexible in the demo. I was so tempted. This one has a very rigid sole and hard leather. This is a Medium width, and ginormous in the heel as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1193003 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 02:45:42 +0000 Sveta 1193003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think semi-tuck makes all the difference here - it makes proportions better wit the same roll height.<br />I also prefer them rolled a bit higher with flats, especially that they are not very tapered... BUT I am very particular about BF jeans fit so here we go! :-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1192994 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 02:35:31 +0000 Jaime 1192994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans look great - I like them rolled with a semi-tuck best. Too bad about the shoes, they are great looking, but the laceless sneakers look terrific!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1192965 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 02:05:23 +0000 Suz 1192965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a pity about the GuyThings. They are so nice-looking. I guess it is good news in a way...I can stop wishing for them. :)</p> <p>I am with Beth Ann. My faves here are 4, 6, 9, and 10. 9/10 is especially pretty and fresh! I do think the slight wedge helps with the proportions overall, and the jeans look comfy and easy to wear! If they feel good, I'd say they're keepers. I think the Hardy sneaker is fun!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1192951 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 01:48:42 +0000 pil 1192951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans look great and the stylings are really nice too! My favorite shoes are the Roxy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1192949 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 01:42:11 +0000 shiny 1192949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say YAY! I like all combos and think the jeans are keepers.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1192946 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 01:37:33 +0000 Beth Ann 1192946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4, 6 and 9/10 are my faves.&nbsp; I love the Hardy sneakers.&nbsp; While I have a life-long love of Keds, I think they seem most modern these days with more refined silhouettes and aren't quite bold enough to anchor a BF based outfit -- just my 2 cents!</p> <p>Don't you love the way the BF's open up new outfit combinations?&nbsp; And they're super comfy, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1192929 Thu, 13 Mar 2014 00:50:12 +0000 kellygirl 1192929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 10. It looks so fresh with the light contrast belt. I understand your comfort level though and think 9 looks good too. I really like the casual sneaks--the white and the grey Roxy. I'm not crazy about the Keds--they look kind of like gear to me but that's just my "read." &nbsp;It's hard to see the oxfords in 4 but they look like a good winter shoe. Love the slipper flats too. I like the higher roll on the BF's. I think you need one more roll in 7. The BF's look great--relaxed and stylish! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bf-on-trial-shoe-review-stuart-disappoints#post-1192862 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 23:22:15 +0000 unfrumped 1192862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Possible BF candidate and summer shoe review. Lot of pics.Angie's tricks employed or not, with results.</p> <p>J. Jill slim BF jean—same in all pics. Not slouchy or super relaxed,. I wanted to try a size up for comparison, but was not in store. I did not keep the Kut Catherine blue denim jean last year (kept the white). I actually really like these as a not-skinny slim jean, and I like the amount of taper. </p> <p>Shown with footwear I already have and still like; to review: </p> <p>1-2 Striped slipper flat—Loft sweater, CK blazer<br /> 3- Khaki Keds! So comfortable, but are they too...something ?<br /> 4--KC oxfords--love this style; look huge; sized for socks in winter. VC sweater<br /> 5-6 --Don Hardy sneaker. Still like! Too weirdo? AT silk shirt. Semi-tuck is more schtumpifying to me than untucked. Could try a blue or gray belt or self-color shoe.<br /> 7-8 Roxy laceless sneaker—a black&amp; white stripe that I like because it reads kind of in-between as does #1. Topshop top.<br /> 9--Tan wedge with wide ankle strap—Etienne Aigner from TJM 2 years ago because they fit my foot shape, bunion-friendly, reasonably walkable. 10--Same sandal in coral !—was about to toss; maybe new life with BF. The cream belt, semi-tuck, and strap sandal are too much all together for me. Happier with low-contrast belt.</p> <p>11--Bonus Stuart Weitzman Guything loafer in a two-tone. Strategy was mixing light and black to wear with nude hose and black skirt. Fit is wrong and they are as stiff as a board and not comfortable so not trying another size. But, I am keen on the style of the shaped vamp instead of straight high vamp. </p> <p>I find I prefer a low-contrast belt with the BF's. The low rise with my long torso also poses top challenges--it takes a really long top to allow for bending etc and a couple of these barely make it.</p> <p>Not styled for different rolled lenghts. I tend to like longer lengths. Can roll to low calf but too tight for higher--hence Angie noting cropped style needed for shorter stylings if tapered.</p> <p>What say you? Too ice-cream cone for pear? Jean and shoe comments welcome. </p>
