I would guess blush. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913949 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 03:05:48 +0000 Bijou 1913949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are all beautiful. If it was for me, I would go grey because I really love that particular shade of pale grey. However, I love the idea of your cap and blush shoes together, so my vote for you is blush (although if you get the grey I will love that too)... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913942 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 02:14:36 +0000 Sal 1913942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blush or grey:)</p> <p>Nice shoes!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913928 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 01:00:05 +0000 SarahD8 1913928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember you were thinking about adding a couple of rust or terra cotta items to your s/s wardrobe this year, and that floral camisole. I think the blush would be smashing with all of those items. I also like blush with Breton stripes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913926 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 00:47:51 +0000 Laurel 1913926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the taupe,--- &nbsp;I'd be worried about the blush getting dirty in your climate/lifestyle, but you know best about that factor. &nbsp; They're super cute in all of the colors! &nbsp;Would you wear socks? &nbsp;Does that steer you in any particular direction? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913925 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 00:35:46 +0000 Jenni NZ 1913925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of them La P!<br /> But I do like the idea of matching your cap!

All three colours are really nice, and I don't think you'd be disappointed with any of them. I love pale grey myself, but agree that it can be tricky to match greys.....unless you don't even try, and wear a much darker or a lighter grey top etc. &nbsp;I think blush seems newest, but the other two are more classic . &nbsp;Cute shoes too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913777 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 18:42:29 +0000 Kathie 1913777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blush, with grey as a very close second. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913776 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 18:36:26 +0000 Ginkgo 1913776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blush sparked joy for me, gray is okay, and the beige was meh.&nbsp; The blush seems interesting without being dominating or sweet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913771 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 18:17:36 +0000 delurked 1913771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So it sounds like you’ve ruled out #2, or should, if it lacks joy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913769 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 18:15:13 +0000 The Cat 1913769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All three would be fine. However, based on my me memory of earlier pics of your outfits, my immediate response is that #2 is the one that looks "most you." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913765 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 18:07:04 +0000 LaPed 1913765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the grey a lot and my policy is often "when in doubt, go cool" but greys can be sooo tricky to match and it's so hard to tell on a screen what the in-person colour will be. One of my new spring purchases is a cotton half-sleeve sweater in this light dove/oyster grey very similar to these shoes, and I'm really enjoying it, so I think it is a pretty good colour for me...</p> <p>At first I had rejected the blush as too ballet-slipper, but I do rather like the fact that it is a colour that can function as a neutral, rather than just a neutral. And Angie just added those adorable blush flats which I really can't stop thinking about. The blush would, I think, bookend with my fisherman's cap. </p> <p>Light browns always seem practical and look so chic on others, but maybe they lack that joy factor for me...</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913761 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 18:01:52 +0000 Barbara Diane 1913761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blush. But based on the fact that I immediately liked it better, not necessarily on your criteria. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913754 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 17:44:35 +0000 Suz 1913754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blush!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913753 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 17:33:28 +0000 delurked 1913753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote blush. It’s still a subtle color and looks neutral with a smidge more interest than the others to my eye.</p> <p>Curious what the collective majority will be. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913752 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 17:29:01 +0000 Cardiff girl 1913752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooo,this isn’t easy is it?Nice shoes,all nice colours.From what you have said you are not looking to match anything and you have a predominately neutrally coloured summer wardrobe so all of these shoes would work.I suppose the grey is cooler than the other two which are warm colours,are your clothing colours cool or warm? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-choose-a-shoe-colour#post-1913746 Sat, 28 Apr 2018 17:09:45 +0000 LaPed 1913746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd really like to add a pair of summer shoes (not sandals) in a light neutral and these hold a lot of promise (replacing a very similar pair of unstructured oxfords that were a bright mustard-y yellow-green). But I'm totally torn as to colour. I've narrowed it down to blush, pale taupe, or a very soft grey -- see photos below. </p> <p>Criteria: I have no bag wardrobe to speak of (one black leather crossbody, an olive green nylon messenger bag, and a turquoise nylon tote), and don't wear belts, so matchiness is not a factor. I have dark hair so these are not bookending shoes. My skin is pale, pretty neutral, neither extremely warm or cool. My summer wardrobe has a good amount of black, olive, sage, plus denim, chambray, white, navy, grey, and a smattering of red. I have two summer hats, one blush and one that reverses from off-white to sand. </p> <p>So, any preference for a particular colour? I find all three equally appealing, and can be cripplingly pragmatic about shoe colour choices. I went through the same thing with boots last fall, and the collective wisdom of YLF guided me to a pair with an incredibly high joy factor, so here we go again. </p>
