I hope the Fluevogs fit and I like the cardigan too. Nice choices, way to go! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/changing-this-for-that-aka-girl-math#post-961757 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 17:13:41 +0000 Transcona Shannon 961757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the validation Sara!</p> <p>Una - :)</p> <p>MNsara - we don't have any Fluevog stores in my province. I have heard their sizing is all over the map but decided to risk it and ordered them in my usual size based on the reviews I read. They didn't have it in a half size up anyway. Decided it was worth the risk as they can be returned if they don't fit. Thanks for the advice though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/changing-this-for-that-aka-girl-math#post-961748 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 17:06:49 +0000 MNsara 961748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, and I heartily recommend calling one or two Fluevog stores to ask about sizing (Fluevog sizing is all over the map, and hopefully to get it right the first time).</p> <p>We have one here now, in Minneapolis!, and I could sure call for you, but they're are only open a few months and didn't seem very knowledgeable when I stopped in there late spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/changing-this-for-that-aka-girl-math#post-961739 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 16:56:41 +0000 catgirl 961739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YGG!&nbsp; I love the shoes, and the kimono jacket seems fab but a potential orphan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/changing-this-for-that-aka-girl-math#post-961736 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 16:55:15 +0000 Sara L. 961736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these purchases sound very carefully thought out both from a buying standpoint (returns), but also from a wardrobe hole standpoint.&nbsp; It sounds like they'll fill established holes and be worn frequently. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/changing-this-for-that-aka-girl-math#post-961724 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 16:45:58 +0000 Transcona Shannon 961724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to Una's recent post with those lovely Fluevog pumps she's thinking of purchasing, I started browsing the Fluevog website and just posted about these gorgeous shoes I found&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/una---why-did-you-have-to">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ou-have-to</a>.&nbsp;They are right up my alley...well, my new alley of refined footwear and no heels.&nbsp;</p> <p>And yesterday I posted about this lovely kimono jacket&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-re-do">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....cket-re-do</a>&nbsp;which I will admit to popping into my cart but not yet pressing the "buy" button.</p> <p>So doing some girl math and thinking about what I will really wear and what makes more sense, I've taken the kimono jacket out of my cart as I don't see me wearing it a lot although I'm sure I'd love it the few times I wore it. Plus I'm less sure of fit on this and it cannot be returned as there is no return policy.</p> <p>Instead I'm ordering the shoes which although on sale, can at least be returned for exchange or online store credit and will be worn much more frequently if they fit. I have a few shoe holes for fall/winter that need filling and flat black oxfords are #1 on the list. These could fill that hole. Plus my experience with Fluevog based on the one pair I have that Suz gave me, is that they are extremely good quality and very comfortable.</p> <p>I have gone ahead and purchased the Eileen Fisher cardigan I posted about here&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/could-you-see-me-in-this">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....me-in-this</a>&nbsp;also for fall/winter. It can be returned for a full refund should it not work out.</p> <p>What do you think? Do these purchases make sense? </p>
