I have ordered #1 and #4 to see how they look on my foot/if they are comfortable. </p> <p>Marley, I love the idea of d'orsays but of the half dozen pairs i've tried they look horrid on my feet. Like the front emphasizes the width of the ball of my foot by making my toes looked pointed in and pigeon toed. Does anyone else have this issue?</p> <p>(And upon coming to this conclusion i realize the one pair of d'orsays i had in the early ninety's did the same thing, even when my feet were smaller and a narrower width... strange? ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156396 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 14:33:52 +0000 AJ 1156396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156364 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 13:52:43 +0000 Jaime 1156364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey as I was scrolling down to say #1 definitely I saw that Una beat me to my own point! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156346 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 13:24:05 +0000 Anonymous 1156346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have tried 1 on before and love them. I am going to pick up a pair this summer. My mum bought them in black last summer, and I borrowed them to try them on a couple times. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156324 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 11:34:27 +0000 kkards 1156324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>another vote for #1, especially in that color. i like #4, but i wonder if they would be comfortable. i also like marley's idea of a d'orsay flats.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156322 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 11:12:44 +0000 krishnidoux 1156322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's difficult without seeing your feet in them. I would go for 1 or 4-5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156295 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 08:11:59 +0000 Greyscale 1156295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 but I'm not in love with the others. The Sorel sandals are cute, casual, and hipster (or at least, the sort of thing that young-ish people in my city wear). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156293 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 08:07:56 +0000 Kiwibird 1156293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for #1 and a first vote for #4!! &nbsp; I'd wear #4 in a heartbeat in spring/summer, especially if they're metallic&nbsp;- I like the "funkiness" of the style&nbsp;and it's different without being totally off the wall. &nbsp;Maybe that's&nbsp;because the majority of us Kiwi's wear jandals (thongs), dressy ones or casual, with practically everything! &nbsp;It's really down to personal preference tho' as the oxfords look a bit on the frump side to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156288 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 07:31:24 +0000 Gigi 1156288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 the best.&nbsp;I don't quite know what to make about the last one--I'd have to see it on, as I've never seen anything like it. I think the *idea* of the second one is good--a laceup with cutouts--but there's something about the shape of the shoe and the design of the cutouts that reads a little frumpy to me.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156201 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 03:52:21 +0000 Marley 1156201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about considering some D'Orsay flats?&nbsp; That way you'd be showing skin (to add structure to your more oversized/fluid/avante gard pieces) - they are flat - so wouldn't hurt your feet, you could dress them up or down, and they are very on trend right now - without the twee factor! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156195 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 03:42:50 +0000 catgirl 1156195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #1! They remind me of Shevia... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156192 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 03:37:16 +0000 Caro in Oz 1156192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 if they look good on (hard to tell with sandals imo)&nbsp;the others don't look sharp&nbsp;enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156190 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 03:34:40 +0000 Beth Ann 1156190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #1, like #2 --- have to see it on.&nbsp; #3? I have a poison eye for thingy's between my toes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156180 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 03:08:47 +0000 Susie 1156180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For MOTG, I like the first one. I do see a bit of funky in that one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156174 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:51:23 +0000 Deborah 1156174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah if you feel your style is&nbsp;going in the direction of your last thread with the poncho, then I would say #1 or #3.&nbsp; And even if that is not the direction but you want to edge up your look a little I think either of these would be good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156173 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:50:46 +0000 ironkurtin 1156173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 for that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156169 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:42:01 +0000 Sarah A 1156169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, thanks Unfrumped i can see why we'd need to know where these were going.... (giggling over "puzzled" ... too )</p> <p>Intended use would be summer mom-on-the-go type stuff. Park, library, children's museum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156166 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:38:17 +0000 unfrumped 1156166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tricky. They're all different even though casual so it might be good to know the target use or outfits. Just from the eyeball test, the Sorels read best as casual sandal for shorts or jeans; the oxfords are the most iffy with frump overtones; the hybrid shoe had me puzzled. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/funky-flats-or-frumptastic-disasters#post-1156163 Mon, 03 Feb 2014 02:31:55 +0000 Sarah A 1156163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am looking to add some modern interesting pancake flat shoes to my spring collection. What do you think: funky or frumpy?</p> <p>1. sorel sandals<br />2-3. gentle souls ... oxfords? (i'd get white)<br />4-5. lands end canvas flip-ballet-flop?</p> </p>
