Often black and brown just seem too heavy in color for spring and summer. My most worn summer footwear is pewter or is close to my skin color. Another "hole" in your list is a pair of animal print flats or pumps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-133122 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 04:43:33 +0000 Queen Mum 133122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>but may I also add that the idea of colored summer shoes is to compliment your outfit, not match it. sooo... even if you don't wear yellow, they would be a great pop of color in pretty much any outfit.</p> <p>I guess I'm not one to talk as all of my shoes are neutral color too. I guess I should really work on rectifying that situation </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-133119 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 04:21:20 +0000 Queen Mum 133119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tricia- the nude colored shoes Angie just blogged about would be perfect for you. Buy them now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-133021 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:05:21 +0000 chewyspaghetti 133021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Or a metallic. I agree with yellow though- it's perfect if you don't like it next to your face and goes great with blues/greens. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-133019 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 00:54:05 +0000 Kristine 133019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Green and blues go great with yellow. Yellow ballet flats or wedges would be great. Or if not yellow, how about orange, turquoise, coral, seafoam? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-133017 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 00:50:52 +0000 Tricia 133017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm...I don't wear a lot of yellow, I don't like it on me. I wear a lot of green and blue, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-132971 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:02:50 +0000 Beth 132971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, yes! Definitely some color. Macy's has a super cute pair of low wedges in yellow right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-132956 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:48:01 +0000 marianna 132956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Kim. You need some colorful summer footwear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-132952 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 21:53:16 +0000 Queen Mum 132952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you need something with color! yellow, turquoise, or green come to mind... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-with-my-summer-shoe-wardrobe#post-132870 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 18:38:27 +0000 Tricia 132870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's warming up here and although I'm feeling really confident now about my fall/winter clothes, I'm a little clueless about summer. Care to let me know where the gaps are in my summer shoes, if there are any?</p> <p>Right now I have:</p> <p>- One pair of black sandals with a slight heel.<br /> - Identical pair in brown</p> <p>Those look more or less like this, but with no embellishment in the middle:<br /> <a href="http://www.zappos.com/images/750/7506052/10591-831835-d.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/images/7.....1835-d.jpg</a></p> <p>- One pair of flat brown leather thong sandals<br /> - One pair of strappy, dressy silver sandals, but they're not very comfortable. I bought them to wear in a wedding years ago.<br /> - One pair of brown peep-toe wedge sandals - they look something like this:<br /> <a href="http://www.zappos.com/images/738/7380584/6219-551895-d.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/images/7.....1895-d.jpg</a><br /> -One pair black ballet flats<br /> -One pair brown ballet flats with a sort of tapestry pattern</p> <p>- I wear my red round-toe pumps with bare legs and jeans or skirts a lot, too. </p> <p>But I'm not sure about some of my other shoes and how/if they can translate to spring and summer. Can I wear my Clarks Taipeis with bare legs, for example, or are they too heavy? What about my Converse? Or my wine-colored patent high heels?</p> <p>I wish I could wear boots all year round. I love boots. Anyway, can I get by with what I have, or do you think I could use anything else? </p>
