Maybe if you did a navy knit tee and white jams and carried a big taupe purse and wore gold buttons earrings to go have surf 'n turf, that would be frumpy. But now if you went for peanut-base vegan ice cream, this would change everything. Lol. I kid and yet I'm serious. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1679050 Tue, 14 Jun 2016 19:38:16 +0000 DonnaF 1679050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Believe it or not, both photos are actually the same sandal color which makes shopping online so frustrating.&nbsp; The sandals haven't come back in stock at Nordies, and I'm not willing to pay full price.&nbsp; Thanks to you all for reminding me to listen to that little voice in the back of my head.&nbsp; Besides, I run too cold (Reynaud's in toes) to wear sandals as often as I'd like and don't really *need* these.</p> <p>For a warm (covered) nude sandal, I prefer the Fly London ones below (lots more $$$), but the color may be too cool for my skin tone.&nbsp; I am drawn to the cognac flatforms, but I have to remind myself that my feet would freeze and that much platform is disproportionate to my height and would overwhelm me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1678616 Mon, 13 Jun 2016 20:56:50 +0000 texstyle 1678616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have them in navy. They are pretty comfortable - I've only worn them a couple of times so far because I also feel a bit hesitant about the style for whatever reason. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1678593 Mon, 13 Jun 2016 19:04:07 +0000 Jenava 1678593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd be afraid the color is too "bandaid", but worth a shot...you can always return! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1678515 Mon, 13 Jun 2016 14:19:18 +0000 Chris987 1678515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you need to get them home and try them on to know for sure. Clarks like many comfort brands &nbsp;have some shoes that are very stylish and lovely, and others that&nbsp;are&nbsp;frumpy...and we each have our own view of where that line is. Try them with clothes and that will inform you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1678438 Mon, 13 Jun 2016 07:44:35 +0000 Ledonna N. 1678438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a very fine edge to walk. Comfort wins every time.for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1678421 Mon, 13 Jun 2016 05:36:34 +0000 ma 1678421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you seen them in person? I have. The thick rubber wedge make them very heavy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1677445 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 23:36:27 +0000 Cococat 1677445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it depends how you wear them. They look nice and comfy to me, a bit like my croc wedges which are beautiful to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1677438 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 23:25:44 +0000 Aida 1677438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(Hah to Lisa ^^)</p> <p>I think they have potential. I like the lighter shade more </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1677390 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 22:31:59 +0000 Anonymous 1677390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Could really go either way. &nbsp;The colour is a tad dodgy to my own eye - but that's totally personal. &nbsp; Just don't wear them with capris &nbsp;</p> <p>I"M KIDDING.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1677371 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 22:13:46 +0000 minimalist 1677371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You rang? </p> <p>Oh, it's about sandals. My first reaction to these is "gardienne," better described here:<br /> <a href="http://www.vingtparis.com/unspoken-rules-of-paris/the_gardiengard/" rel="nofollow">http://www.vingtparis.com/unsp.....rdiengard/</a><br /> <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/commentators/john-lichfield-our-man-in-paris-5333536.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.independent.co.uk/v.....33536.html</a><br /> but I suppose you'd be styling them differently than the image that came to my mind. Also, according to the articles linked, my memories are decades out of date. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1677356 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 22:02:12 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1677356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's hard to say. They look a bit Pedro Garcia-ish in the vamp, but with the low wedge they could come off otherwise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/frumpy-2#post-1677352 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 21:58:22 +0000 DonnaF 1677352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do I have my sales goggles on?&nbsp; Is my hesitation a sign that they're frumpy?&nbsp; Sandals tend to be the footwear most likely to fit me, but my feet run cold and unlike most sandals, these look supportive and warm.&nbsp; </p> <p>Ah!&nbsp; In the time it took for my to type this, they popped in the Out of Stock, but maybe they'll come back.&nbsp; </p>
