If you don't wear slippers, let them go and make some space for something you love.</p> <p>And if the brown boots are uncomfortable AND high maintenance, I wouldn't keep them if it were me. I don't mind some maintenance/shoe care, but I don't have the patience for finicky shoes, and i don't have patience for uncomfortable shoes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962232 Sun, 07 Oct 2018 01:06:57 +0000 JAileen 1962232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Get rid of the uncomfortable ones. The first pair looks really nice. Keep them. Ballet flats? If you normally wear socks inside, then get rid of them, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962224 Sun, 07 Oct 2018 00:28:47 +0000 kerry 1962224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very decisive!

I like the first ones although I know it's a tough colour to style. Looks good with denim, though, and could work with skirts.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962176 Sat, 06 Oct 2018 20:52:59 +0000 kkards 1962176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>being in the middle of my own footwear assement, i can honestly say the one thing i'm really good about getting rid of is footwear that is uncomfortable...so those go...<br />i like the pair in picture #1,2,3...like that the color is very&nbsp;neutral and seem to change color depending on what you are wearing them with...but then i'm a neutral on neutral wearer... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962170 Sat, 06 Oct 2018 20:34:22 +0000 Anonymous 1962170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going shopping with Cardiff.

Basically, I'm trying to expand my wardrobe away from skinny pants and into dresses and skirts for winter. I am on the fence with the heel height though. Another option would be a lower-heel tall boot, but I feel weird wearing tall boots inside. Is that weird? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962156 Sat, 06 Oct 2018 19:39:39 +0000 Sal 1962156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first boots - a useful colour and shape. I do have a pair of very flat ballet shoes that I only wear rarely - but occasionally they are useful as house shoes or for slipping in a bag. I would pass on 3 - uncomfortable is not great for a casual shoe.</p> <p>Nice collection!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962155 Sat, 06 Oct 2018 19:36:02 +0000 LaPed 1962155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've tried demoting ballet flats to house shoes before but they're not comfortable enough to fill the "dressy slipper" niche. I've finally learned my lesson and dont buy them anymore!</p> <p>The pointy suede boots like they might have some water/salt staining on the toes, or maybe it's just my screen? Colour seems a bit here-nor-there. Not really, brown, not really grey<br /> For me, that's a hard colour to style.</p> <p>I really like the dark brown Chelsea boots but if they're not comfortable why bother? Perhaps they're a little too RATE/menswear for your style (probably why I like them)? </p> <p>The navy Boden boots in Finds look great for your style; the heel won't be too high for any of your pants' inseams? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962154 Sat, 06 Oct 2018 19:31:42 +0000 nemosmom 1962154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your point toe booties are cute! If they feel good to your feet, maybe try a little TLC to see if you can save them. The brown booties sound like a pain - both to wear and to maintain. I think I would pass them on along with the ballet flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/challenge-closet-edit-footwear#post-1962150 Sat, 06 Oct 2018 19:23:41 +0000 Anonymous 1962150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The last picture (8) shows my entire collection of shoes (but I missed my nikes, which are in my gym bag!).</p> <p>I purge fairly often so that’s why I have a fairly tight collection.</p> <p>I am getting rid of the Brown LLBean snowboots on the left as I have not worn them in about 4 years.</p> <p>The ones I’m in the fence about are:</p> <p>- tan/olive/khaki pointy toed boots (1, 2, 3). They’re comfortable. But they seem a bit worn. Perhaps I just need to clean them. They’re the only bootie I have that is close to my ankle, so currently the only ones I can wear with skirts. I actually do not own any winter skirts, but plan on some! I am considering a pair of boden booties as a replacement (see Finds).</p> <p>- black ballet flats (4, 5). Too flat to wear outside. Demote to slippers? I usually just wear socks indoors though.</p> <p>- Brown booties (6, 7). These are strangely a little uncomfortable. The leather quality isn’t great. Still and very hard to keep polished. They immediately get scratched and start looking ratty. I would like to get rid of them but maybe I’m just being lazy about the upkeep and care. They look alright when polished. </p>
