So, so gorgeous and would be perfection for work.

I think I might be crippled inside of an hour, and I'm only half joking. I have some booties with a bit of a heel...</p> <p>So like Una, my question is: are jeans and booties an acceptable substitute? I don't think it's quite the same.</p> <p>(Thanks for sharing pics, everyone.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333401 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 16:37:45 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1333401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not buying these at the moment, but I bet they'd look good with jeans:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.colehaan.com/bradshaw-pump-%2840mm%29---pointy-toe-black-suede/D42064.html?dwvar_D42064_color=Black%20Suede&amp;dwvar_D42064_width=B#cgid=womens_shoes_pumps&amp;start=11">http://www.colehaan.com/bradsh.....r_D42064_c</a></p> <p>Now if they came in a narrow width .... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333367 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 15:57:44 +0000 ironkurtin 1333367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really loved those looks.&nbsp; I really wish I could look like that, but my body proportions are different.&nbsp; As for heels with jeans... maybe if the weather let me?&nbsp; I cannot pull off those wee skinny heels, but I could do something similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333355 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 15:46:28 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1333355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do jeans and booties with heels all the time. And I will do work pants with pumps on the infrequent occasions in which I show my face in lower Manhattan. It's just the jeans - pumps together that gives me pause. But I think I'll give it a run sometime before October must have hosiery rolls around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333304 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 15:02:25 +0000 catgirl 1333304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always admire this look but I don't wear pumps!&nbsp; Both because of what Suz said, plus I don't find pumps to fit my style.&nbsp; What is an acceptable substitute, or is the whole point that there IS no substitute?&nbsp; Heeled booties? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333295 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 14:52:51 +0000 Helena 1333295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto what Suz said about the weather window, but jeans with pumps are my go-to for date night ... I love the look, esp. with a button-up or fluidy-fitting t-shirt. Not practical for date-to-date so I will often sub the pumps with ballet flats for warm weather or knee-high riding boots for cooler (we'll forget about the Sorels for now thank you!!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333207 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 10:42:45 +0000 lyn67 1333207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wore it all the time when&nbsp;&nbsp;bootcuts were mainstream, but since then&nbsp;&nbsp;I couldn't get me some&nbsp;other style jeans&nbsp;that are fitting me good enough as R&amp;J said&nbsp;to make me as confident as I ususally am in lower heeled/kitten&nbsp;pumps. But I do wear my rolled up &nbsp;BF khakis wth 1-1.5inch wedged leather pumps all the time, never with sneakers(I actually don't have city sneakers for myself at all, only gear).</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333176 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 07:28:55 +0000 rute 1333176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All the time! I love the mix of a casual piece (jeans) with a Classic pumps! I never wear jeans with sneakers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333174 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 07:18:48 +0000 RoseandJoan 1333174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my go to look for casual nights out with girls and lunches uptown. I think to pul off the look you have to be as confident in your pumps as you are in your jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333160 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 06:27:45 +0000 Alexandra 1333160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look! That said, my feet are like Suz's so keeping those pumps on is a struggle. I think this look also requires pants that are hemmed to the ankle or just above. Mine are all longer. Hmm... I think you just helped me identify a wardrobe hole, hehe. Must sew shorter pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333136 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 04:42:41 +0000 dashielle (Ann) 1333136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a go-to look for me (pumps + jeans) because I work in a semi-casual office but like to inject a little interest into my outfits AND elongate my leg line, since I'm 5'2". I have my favorite pair of black patent pointy toe pumps, with a chain across the vamp, under my desk since I bus to work, then I change in the office. I almost never post wearing them, since I take my photos at home in the morning...so you get the commuting shoes mostly :-). Here are a couple of outfits with jeans and other pumps that I enjoyed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333127 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 04:21:29 +0000 Deb 1333127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my everyday style of dressing to a tee. Simple, classic, stylish, I don't think you can go wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333120 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 03:56:28 +0000 Neel 1333120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite look too!! But I find it too dressy for my day to day casual MOTG life. But when I need to dress up, I go for the pumps with casual items and it always works. Not overly dressy yet dressed up. Perfect for my lifestyle! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333093 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 03:21:20 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1333093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've tried jeans with pumps and without a blazer it always feels a little forced in my environment, like I'm trying to dress up somehow but went about it in an odd way. I wish i felt more comfortable wearing that kind of look because it would work well with my lifestyle and climate pretty well. i think it's because heeled shoes are becoming less and less common in my area, at any level of dressiness. Classic pumps are so rarely seen with anything other than suits or other formal business wear or dressy evening looks, at least around here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333027 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 02:33:31 +0000 Suz 1333027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have trouble fitting pumps (they rarely stay on my feet due to narrow heels). But I really like the pumps and jeans look and do attempt it occasionally. </p> <p>The problem for me is that the "weather" window and the "occasion" window are both so narrow. Pumps are often too hot for our summers. And pumps with bare skin are <b>way </b>too uncovered for my winters. That leaves September, June, and possibly a few late May or&nbsp;August evenings for wearing this combination. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>LOL at Ms. Mary saying it is her "cool" weather fave. Oh, to be a California girl!!</p> <p>Meanwhile, I live in a super casual town where I do a lot of MOTG errand type walking -- and pumps are not often the natural choice for that.&nbsp;</p> <p>Still, whenever I get a chance, I'll wear something like that, for sure.&nbsp;</p> <p>A wedge pump may not be as glamorous, but it does make the look a bit more wearable. My current HEWI is a wedge pump with a pointy toe that will stay on my foot.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333024 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 02:30:47 +0000 Jaime 1333024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Her look is pure&nbsp;Emmanuelle Alt (which is a compliment). As long as the wearer can walk well in the pumps, it is fantastic.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333022 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 02:30:16 +0000 Sal 1333022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love the look....</p> <p>But I rarely wear it even though I have the components....</p> <p>In my head it is the juxtaposition - if I want to be comfortable I might wear boyfriend jeans - so I want comfortable shoes to match. &nbsp;If I want to be dressy I might choose a pencil skirt or sheath dress - and I wear pumps to match. &nbsp;It is a bit like wearing a winter coat with pumps - if it is cold enough to wear a wool coat I need socks and boots. &nbsp;</p> <p>This is holding me back fashion wise!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333020 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 02:29:44 +0000 viva 1333020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE that woman's style!!! I think about wearing pumps and jeans more than I actually do it . I have one pair of fab black pimps that I need to wear this fall. You have inspired me!!! And my new okalas. Both will be perfect with jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333018 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 02:25:37 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1333018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're speaking to me, aren't you, Ummlila? Whenever I buy pumps, I think, "These would look awesome with my jeans!" Especially since I'm usually wearing jeans when buying said pumps. And then I don't get the pumps out to wear with the jeans ever again. But I really want to do it this season, before it gets too cold. Why don't I just go ahead and wear them on a piano lesson day? I need to remove my shoes at the piano teacher's studio, and there's no shoe easier to take off and put back on than a pump. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/french-fashion-editor-jeans-with-pumps#post-1333004 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 02:08:03 +0000 citygirldc 1333004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that style.
