They're ordered : ) Now I just have to find the outfit to go with them LOL. I don't think showing up nude to the wedding would be appropriate. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907790 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 20:17:53 +0000 Angie 907790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Earthy is right, Sarah :). They are *quite comfy* as far as pointy toe pumps go. The leather is soft. Certainly a great option for dressy occasions. Dance all night! <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907789 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 20:15:45 +0000 sarah 907789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, Denise. It's funny - I ordered the Munro's and put them on and felt like a nurse or something - definitely too conservative. But I'm so bad at choosing shoes on the dressy side that still match my style that I couldn't figure that out from the pictures. Yikes - it's a steep learning curve. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907785 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 20:13:09 +0000 CocoLion 907785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The Vince Camuto Ryssa doesn't look dressy enough to me.<br /><br />The Munro is a little conservative for your style. &nbsp;As is the Geox.<br /><br />I like the Isaac Mizrahi as well! &nbsp;In silver. &nbsp;That way you don't have to go the nude route. &nbsp;Although I do love the Cole Haan Air pumps.<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907783 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 20:11:48 +0000 sarah 907783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Angie, thanks a million. Those and the mint green ones are actually my faves of the bunch, and you're exactly right - the basket weave makes them more "earthy" (or at least "down to earth")&nbsp;(right for me). I'm so relieved to hear that you've had them on your fussy feet and they passed. My feet are equally fussy. I'll order them! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907782 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 20:08:38 +0000 Angie 907782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Okay! Then I vote the silver pumps. I have had them on my feet and they are quite comfy. Their basket weave texture also makes them more playful and "Sarah" to my eye. You are not a severe pumps wearing gal :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907767 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 19:52:53 +0000 sarah 907767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The colors will hopefully be as pictured, Angie (white, navy, and some color) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907726 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 18:50:58 +0000 Angie 907726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Is the outfit dark, Sarah? Or in the colours you have shown the items in here - white jacket, coral top, navy pants? <br /><br />I vote the silver Issac Mizrahi weave pumps with nude hose. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907685 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 18:14:20 +0000 Anonymous 907685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the metallic IM Grisel (2nd on the third page). I find a silver or pewter as versatile as a nude shoe most of the time. If you wear golds more, make it gold or bronze. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907681 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 18:10:40 +0000 Isis 907681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the snakeskin air tali's.<br /><br />Here's some nude wedge air tali's:<br /><a href="http://www.zappos.com/cole-haan-air-talia-wedge-40" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/cole-haan-air-talia-wedge-40</a><br /><br />ETA: Or these sequin black slipper flats:<br /><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/cole-haan-sabrina-loafer/3423977?origin=keywordsearch&amp;contextualcategoryid=6013096&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=104" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/co.....er/3423977</a><br /><br />I think shoes are the hardest!<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907679 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 18:09:16 +0000 sarah 907679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ There are lots on the web, so I can look for them there. I'm just wondering if they are too casual for a wedding and I should at least have the semblance of a heel. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907676 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 18:05:25 +0000 Suz 907676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ah. Got it. Yeah, you are right. It is better to have a pair of shoes. What about a slipper flat? Not that I have seen one, in my neck of the woods. But that's not surprising. You can't even get an oxford in this town.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907668 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 17:59:44 +0000 sarah 907668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LOL, Suz. If you'd asked me LAST year I would have yes to sandals, but it's in Boston in 3 weeks. Looking out my window, I'm pretty certain that sandals won't be an option.<br /><br />I do have Cole Haan air tali sandals that would work, but I think it will just be too cold. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907665 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 17:56:21 +0000 Suz 907665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Can it be a sandal? Or will the weather still be too cool? Because you have some possible sandals, right?&nbsp;<br /><br />Don't you have a Cole Haan Air Tali shoe, too?&nbsp;<br /><br />I like the mint Ivanka Trumps if the colour works. But nude would also be useful over time!&nbsp;<br /><br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dressy-shoes-at-a-loss#post-907660 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 17:52:20 +0000 sarah 907660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ As I <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quandary-how-to-dress-up-when-your-style-is-not-dressy">posted recently</a>, I'm trying to put together a wedding outfit that feels like me. #1 shows the direction I'm heading (thanks to advice from Angie and many of you). I've bought and returned 4 pairs of pants so far and have 4-5 more on order, but am hopeful I'll find something. But what about shoes? I'm not "pumps" gal, and am trying to find a low heel that might look appropriate and still feel like me. #2 and 3 show some that I've come up with. I have to admit the nude pumps feel the least like me, but I'm sure would "work" in a pinch. What do you think? Other ideas?
