They should be versatile for skirts or pants. I recently decided I'm done with heels, so I should send you my heels and you can send me your flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135732 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 16:52:37 +0000 cciele 135732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I broke down and ordered a pair -- I was having troubles getting dressed today because I don't have much in the way of footwear that's not a sandal, boot, or Converse! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135625 Thu, 18 Mar 2010 08:58:46 +0000 Katiepea 135625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are gorgeous and even better, are on sale!

I hope you go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135340 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:58:52 +0000 agrace 135340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tricia - I have to laugh because I identify so much with what you said about hating the way your feet feel flat on the floor and the way flats look on yourself. I feel EXACTLY the same way! I try and try to make flats work for me but they just do not feel 'natural' to me at all!!! So these types of shoes really would be perfect I think. I actually just ordered the pair Leehovey is talking about from Target that look very similar to these. I think I will wear them a lot. I saw this pair you are talking about at DSW, but like Maya - they didn't have my size. </p> <p>So yes, I think these will be a perfect substitute and I think very wearable with everything. And I know Angie has the beige snakeskin pair and loves them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135333 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:46:47 +0000 Lee Hovey 135333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a similar pair in all black snakeskin from target that I adore and wear with everything. Ok, thats a lie, I haven't worn them with skirt/dress yet because I don't wear those much. But I have worn them with trousers, skinnies, straight legs, boot cuts. I think they make a good substitution with ballet flats because the tiny wedge heel is there but not big enough to be a pump. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135328 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:33:39 +0000 RoseandJoan 135328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would wear them with all of the above Tricia. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135324 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:30:11 +0000 Tricia 135324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So they're not too chunky for skirts, then? Also, what about skinnies or cigarette pants? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135323 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:27:54 +0000 Maya 135323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are indeed in the YLF store. Angie has them in snake. We looked for them at Macys when she was here but couldn't find them. I did try a VERY similar pair at DSW though and they were comfy, but as always, would not stay on my foot even with the elasticized topline. The next half size down wasn't in stock. They did make my feet look a little clownish though, but they are not exactly the same shoes. The Lawris look sleeker. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135321 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:23:35 +0000 RoseandJoan 135321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are they the shoes from the YLF store? I love them and would wear them in the same way as a ballet flat. Good choice Tricia. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-these-sub-for-ballet-flats#post-135319 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:21:27 +0000 Tricia 135319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I realized today that I hate flats. I hate the way they make my legs look in skirts, I hate feeling my foot flat on the floor...but I do like the LOOK of ballet flats with certain things, and they seem practical for this in-between weather when it's too hot for boots or my big retro Taipei pumps, and too cold for sandals.</p> <p>So, I was thinking about these...would I be able to wear these with skirts as well as pants? Are they low enough to function as a ballet flat rather than a pump? I was thinking about getting both the black and the snakeskin, for something a little different...</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3068137?Category=&#038;Search=True&#038;SearchType=keywordsearch&#038;keyword=guess+shoes&#038;origin=searchresults&#038;siteId=fV7QgDWUWe0-e4L2cNwRTu0bBPPL_Px2.g" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....BPPL_Px2.g</a> </p>
