Definitely slightly alabaster. Enjoy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1892995 Thu, 22 Feb 2018 21:08:51 +0000 Murph11 1892995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've always liked mules, and these Naturlaizers are really fab! They just arrived and I'm already wearing them around the house (on this bright, snowy day). The Medium width works really well for my average foot -- much better than the less-secure Halogen ones I have from NAS. I was, however, surprised that they are alabaster (slight tint of gray) and not white. Not at all a deal-breaker for me, but may be for others.&nbsp;Thanks, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1891594 Mon, 19 Feb 2018 18:27:47 +0000 Suzanimal 1891594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have two pair and wear them more than I thought I would. I have one pair in snake and another black with a gold metal bar across the top. They're great spring/fall transition shoes when it's not warm enough for sandals and too hot for closed shoes. I also grab them in the summer when my pedicure is chipped and I'm too lazy to do a touch up. Very useful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1891592 Mon, 19 Feb 2018 18:23:26 +0000 mtnsofthemoon 1891592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is brilliant!&nbsp; I feel the same about mules and am going to copy your idea and try them in a narrow also.&nbsp; Fingers&nbsp; crossed they work as I really love the styling of the shoe (feminine) and I am hoping since they are by Naturalizer they will have enough support in the&nbsp; arch (I have a very high arch).&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1891317 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 21:33:39 +0000 Gigi 1891317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I wouldn't have thought to try something in a narrow size! I have only one pair of mules that seems to fit OK, but I have low-volume feet too and may run into issues like yours the next time I try to find a pair of mules. I will keep this post in mind! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1891239 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 16:48:03 +0000 Janet 1891239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are sleek and classic yet modern and very you! </p> <p>I like them in theory but haven’t worn them in years. I had a pair many years ago that were cognac suede flats and they were soooo comfortable, even though I have a tendency to walk out of them (a hazard of narrow, low-volume feet in this style). I tried some on last year but didn’t find the right fit and style. If the right pair at the right price came up, I would consider them. I like the idea of a metallic like these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1891234 Sun, 18 Feb 2018 16:29:47 +0000 Angie 1891234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Lisa p,</b> you are a "Moody Sophisticate" to a tee...and crack me up.

I am glad you found yours. Mules are fab and un-fussy when you have the right ones for your feet and needs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890884 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 16:11:51 +0000 Carla 1890884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hello ... these are so sleek and perfect for narrow feet - I am curious to know if one needs to size up in the narrow cut due to the pointy toe? what size are you in? thanks:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890863 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 15:34:42 +0000 Angie 1890863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Lisa p</b>, makes sense. You either like the high contrast or you don't. Got to go with what makes you feel fab.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks ever so much, ladies. You're all sooooo nice. Also fun to have opened "the mule doors" to those who have the same foot issues as me. The right mules are out there.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890820 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 14:31:22 +0000 cindysmith 1890820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, I might have to at least open my mind to the possibility of something like this. I had given up on mules because they aggravate my sciatica. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890729 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 06:42:43 +0000 Bijou 1890729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see this as a lesson in being patient for the 'right' mules to come along. I have similar foot issues to you, so mules do not fit my feet easily. However, if the right pair came along, I would definitely snap them up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890710 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 05:08:25 +0000 Echo 1890710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for patience and perseverance! I like the look of mules on others, but sadly I have not yet found a pair that I am not afraid will fly off my feet. It may not be a rational fear, and I have high-volume feet, but grace is not my middle name, and I can be surprisingly clumsy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890709 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 05:03:57 +0000 annagybe 1890709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dang those are nice &amp; very you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890661 Sat, 17 Feb 2018 02:09:37 +0000 Windchime 1890661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are beautiful mules and will look wonderful styled with your new dresses and jeans.

I don't care for high contrast footwear -vis a vis the pants or jeans or skirts worn with. &nbsp;When I wear white jeans, there is no way I'm wearing black shoes, unless the shoe is open toed and shows a lot of skin and polished toes. &nbsp;Silver is my shoe solution there. I don't wear white or light &nbsp;bottoms enough to want light coloured shoes. &nbsp;And the same holds true for black bottoms, dark jeans etc - not going to wear high contrast shoes . &nbsp;Just cannot wrap my head around that look &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890592 Fri, 16 Feb 2018 23:23:02 +0000 Angie 1890592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Got it, <b>Jenn</b>. I'll wear loafers for you....</p> <p><b>Lisa p,</b> I like the look of mules too - I could never get them to fit until now, so bonus. Good that you remembered the silver, and I thought you had a pair of those actually. Unlike you, I've always worn white shoes, and wear white/cream shoes throughout the year. I had a problem in the '90s when 90% of footwear was black.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890589 Fri, 16 Feb 2018 23:14:27 +0000 Anonymous 1890589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm surprised that so many people are not fans of mules.

Never have, really. &nbsp;Not sure why. &nbsp;Pale grey, pale blue, those are ok, but white - no. Too short a season for them maybe.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eating-my-words-about-mules/page/2#post-1890587 Fri, 16 Feb 2018 23:10:51 +0000 Jenn 1890587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I have average width feet and average (not high) arches. I’m a pretty easy shoe fit...I just don’t much like the look of mules for myself. Not as bad as my poison eye for loafers, but not my favorite. The pair I had were a Mary Jane style, at a time when that was my go-to. </p>
