They're surprisingly VERY comfortable, too. I ran about a mile through the airport in mine when they were new, to make a tight connection, and they did NOT hurt my feet at all.</p> <p>The toes are very pointed, in a rather "wicked witchy" kind of way, so they're not everyone's cup of tea, but I really like them for times when I want to feel a little bit radical and subversive. :-)</p> <p>I swooned over the blue ones, too, and then went for practicality (maybe having just a twinge of regret about that...).<br /> Mine are a half size up from my usual size, if that helps.</p> <p>I hope they work for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853404 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 16:09:05 +0000 Janet 853404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everybody!</p> <p>Angie, that's what I've been thinking. If the Fluevogs are not all I want them to be, I will make do with what I have (and I have plenty) through the rest of the season and try again in the fall. </p> <p>Marlene, I love those booties, but I didn't want gold hardware -- otherwise, I would have pounced! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853383 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 15:49:55 +0000 Marlene1 853383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just wanted to put in a word for the Vince Camuto "Tipper" bootie that Angie recommended. I love mine - very comfy and I get tons of compliments on them. Thanks, Angie!<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/12/05/two-fab-finds/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2012/12/05/two-fab-finds/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853331 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:57:31 +0000 Suz 853331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them, too, Janet. But if they don't work, maybe focus on spring looks. It is coming soon!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853325 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:46:30 +0000 Angie 853325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, if it's a bust again - move on. It's Winter dregs in stores at this time of year unless you get REALLY lucky at places like yoox, the Rack and the Outnet (season old designer wear). And sometimes Shopbop. </p> <p>Do not settle.</p> <p>That said, I like the Fluevogs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853320 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:37:56 +0000 Thistle 853320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these and hope they work for you. Fluevogs are so cool, and these are no exception! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853316 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:34:45 +0000 Transcona Shannon 853316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these Janet and can totally see them working with your style. Although I personally have never had the problem with pants being too short (lol!), I can see that this height of shaft can bridge that problem for you. Keeping my fingers crossed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853306 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:25:05 +0000 Mochi 853306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha!</p> <p>To me, there's something about that height that's tres rock and roll, actually. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853305 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:24:42 +0000 Anonymous 853305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these! They look like mediaeval court shoes all jazzed up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853302 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:17:43 +0000 Janet 853302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nancy, they are a little taller than I was looking for, too, but I'm going to try them. It may actually be a good thing, since I cannot find any darn pants lately that reach my ankles! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853299 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:14:55 +0000 modgrl 853299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funky! I love them! I hope they work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853297 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:12:25 +0000 Mochi 853297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them in the blue! Love! Black is great and would be extremely versatile. They are just a bit higher than I'd thought you were looking for (I'd seen others around this height, and passed them by). But if they fill that wardrobe hole, that's all that matters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-quest-for-low-heeled-black-booties#post-853294 Tue, 19 Feb 2013 14:05:37 +0000 Janet 853294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have now swung and missed three times in ordering refined but casual black booties that have a low heel, ankle height, narrow profile with a slightly pointed toe, and just a bit of metal detailing for a bit of rock'n'roll edge. On my earlier thread about this, rebekahphoto chimed in with a suggestion for these Fluevogs, which I had seen before but forgot about:</p> <p><a href="http://www.fluevog.com/code/?w%5B0%5D=search%3AGenevieve&#038;pp=1&#038;view=detail&#038;p=1&#038;colourID=3543" rel="nofollow">http://www.fluevog.com/code/?w.....ourID=3543</a></p> <p>I investigated last night and ended up ordering one of the last three pairs in the country in my size. We'll see if they are my solution! I'm trying not to look at that blue too much -- oh, would I love to have them in that color! </p>
