Get them out of your main closet pronto.</p> <p>If you're still waffling about whether you actually like them, make yourself use them in several outfits starting right away. I've been impressed at how that little exercise often shows me something I really don't like--may not fit as well as I thought, or, suddenly when seen in light of day on the street they look weird, or, sometimes, wow, these are fine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-editthe-dress-shoes#post-1130551 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 19:18:25 +0000 April 1130551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them too, but you're the one who has to love them. &nbsp;I like Isabel's suggestion. &nbsp;If you're not ready yet, put them in a shoebox in a slightly inconvenient location and if you at some point want them enough to get them out again, then they've earned their place in the closet. &nbsp;</p> <p>If not -- black trash bag charity pile. &nbsp;;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-editthe-dress-shoes#post-1130509 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 18:29:07 +0000 Isabel 1130509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL...yes, it is a first world problem, but it is what we got, right ? &nbsp;We just need to be thankful that we don't have those other problems.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you are not ready, then don't let go. Put them in a box and see if you get through Spring without them. If you do, then give them away or sell them. I LOVE them, but it they are not you, they probably won't be come spring either. I don't think that you will change and I am pretty sure that they won't either. &nbsp; : )&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-editthe-dress-shoes#post-1130504 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 18:24:20 +0000 Missey 1130504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need a pair of dark pumps. The three pair of Frye oxfords on the left get worn with trousers. The far left pair is worn with skirts too. The Cole Haan slipper flats get next to no wear. They are lovely but I think not me. They are a spring/fall shoe so I don't know if I should wait until spring to give them a second chance.</p> <p>Not pictured are my sandals, converse, and supergas because I'm keeping them all and wear them regularly in nice weather.</p> <p>I think the Cole Haans should probably go but I'm not quite ready. Thoughts on being a caretaker of shoes? What a totally first world problem. </p>
