Period. 890916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Okay--deleting previous thoughts. &nbsp;Just did a *duh* where I remembered that you are wearing trousers. In that case, I could see mary janes reading as feminine versions of oxfords, which would be great. &nbsp;Slinking away in shame now.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890901 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 01:07:40 +0000 bj1111 890901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ circling back...i hear ornella...i'm not sure if you want to get these. &nbsp;i can't see you wearing these again, even if you got the job!<br /><br />something funkier like a mary jane. &nbsp;possibly a wedge. &nbsp;something less corporate. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890888 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 01:01:11 +0000 Liz A. 890888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I freakin love them. &nbsp;And would totally wear them to an interview. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890880 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:58:06 +0000 Vildy 890880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ BTW, am a sometime avid reader of menswear blogs and trad men tend to judge each other by the quality of leather in their shoes. Women's shoes are rarely of such fine leathers. But it got me thinking, what about the best quality heeled lace up oxford you could afford. Not so girly as to require personality transplant. :D<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890879 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:56:24 +0000 Ornella 890879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Una, sorry if I'm asking what's already been covered but are pumps your only option? I can see you better in Mary Janes and you'd get more wear out of them.&nbsp;<br /><br />p.s.<br />As for DH driving you there, if he can't for&nbsp;whatever&nbsp;reason,&nbsp;you can of course&nbsp;always walk there in more snow friendly&nbsp;footwear, then change. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/upload/images/80-1_image.jpg">This</a>&nbsp;just poped to my head. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890876 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:54:37 +0000 Vildy 890876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm with K can shop here on the stompability.&nbsp; Watch out for carpeted shoe departments where everything's jake and then on your own on smooth surfaces you're unsteady. <br /><br />Patent used to be only a summer shoe and sporty - more in the spectator sense. Now year round.&nbsp; Me, when I think of corporate culture, I would ask myself if any of the male partners would wear patent to the office. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890863 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:47:57 +0000 K. Period. 890863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ They look great, although a little high. &nbsp;I love my corso comos, and find that they feel more comfortable on than they should given their heel height (I think mine are 3 3/4" wedges). &nbsp;<br /><br />However, I'd look for a lower heel too. &nbsp;I wear a lot of heels. &nbsp;When you walk in heels for an interview, you want a comfortable STRONG&nbsp;gait. &nbsp;You don't want any hesitation in your stride (caused by your shoes) to be misread as lack of confidence. &nbsp;You've gotta be able to walk like you could stomp someone. At least that's my theory&nbsp;for legal field interviews.<br /><br />ETA: Stompability concerns aside, they are totally legal field appropriate.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890860 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:45:36 +0000 hedgiehog 890860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes. They look great. Classic and season less IMO. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890844 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:39:14 +0000 Aida 890844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Looks like a good basic pump, though I think you'd probably be happier with a 3" heel for the long term. Not sure if you can do pointy, but I also like these as options for you (perhaps they're not nearby though):<br /><br /><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/via-spiga-harrietta-pump-nordstrom-exclusive/3294008?origin=keywordsearch&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=Black+Leather&amp;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vi.....ywordsearc</a><br /><br /><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ivanka-trump-indico-pump-exclusive-color/3138209?origin=related-3138209-0-1-1-2-Rich%20Relevence" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/iv.....d-3138209-</a><br /><br />I have the first pair headed to me in the mail https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890841 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:36:57 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 890841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The black option shows for me when I click the link.&nbsp; I think they are dressy but professional and (sorry!) classic.&nbsp; I actually think they're a great shoe for you as they can be a counterpoint to some of your edgier pieces.&nbsp; (Or can do "interview/office" polish.)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890839 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:35:44 +0000 Elizabeth P 890839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Black was what showed up when I followed the link, and you'd mentioned black previously, so that was what I assumed you were talking about.&nbsp; I vote yes to black!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890830 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:33:08 +0000 Missey 890830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Black would be lovely as well...I am partial to the coral though :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890826 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:32:03 +0000 CocoLion 890826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Those are timeless and should last in your closet for years.<br /><br />I love that DHs reason for accompanying you is to preserve your footwear, lol. &nbsp;Although maybe tell him it's for moral support to go easy on his ego. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890825 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:31:47 +0000 catgirl 890825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hey sorry, don't know what the link shows but would be black. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890824 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:31:46 +0000 DonnaF 890824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow, I'm impressed that you can wear 3.5" heels.&nbsp; I think of patent as a spring/summer shoe.&nbsp; <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890823 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:31:46 +0000 catgirl 890823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hey sorry, don't know what the link shows but would be black. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890817 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:30:58 +0000 Thistle 890817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ If you are talking about thesin black instead of coral, I give two thumbs up. &nbsp;I would not do coral. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890812 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:28:39 +0000 Sarah A 890812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ These are a lovely.

I thought you said you were look for black pumps earlier so I just honed in on that color when looking at the link.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kinda-urgent-these-pumps#post-890809 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:28:04 +0000 Missey 890809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh...they are a lovely coral color.&nbsp; So appropriate for an interview; classic but in a memorable color and texture.&nbsp; Great pick!<br /><br />
