I LOVE flat oxfords so thumbs up from me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-635460 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 15:44:59 +0000 Janet 635460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lynne, he is the best!

I think I'm in love with your husband. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-635223 Sat, 02 Jun 2012 05:13:08 +0000 Kari 635223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been eyeing that very pair. I love them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634721 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 18:49:55 +0000 Janet 634721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Arlettas too! I decided to try these because I wanted a flat, slim shoe that wouldn't look too masculine on my narrow feet. I want to wear them with skirts and shorts.</p> <p>I just put them on to show to my husband, and he immediately gave a big thumbs up, and in fact said, "Why don't you wear them right now with what you have on?" So I cut the tag and am wearing them now, with a black, red and white patterned pencil skirt, white tee, and bold silver necklace. So the Borns win!</p> <p>Thanks for all the feedback! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634682 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 18:15:19 +0000 Diana 634682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these! Much better than the perforated ones. I was actually considering them too but ultimately decided to get the arlettas in gold instead because these are too flat for comfort for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634680 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 18:14:03 +0000 Kirti 634680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love love love! Please keep </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634664 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 18:01:14 +0000 Chrizzle 634664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried them on at Nordstrom Rack a couple of weeks ago, and loved them. You're right that the metallic is much softer and less shiny than in your photos. They were ultra-comfy too - much more supportive than very flat shoes tend to be, and very soft. I regret not getting them, but I had other priorities that day. In other words, keep, keep, keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634662 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:58:51 +0000 rae 634662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, I was going to mention the shine, also. Can we see them in an outfit? I find it very had to judge shoes without seeing the rest of the body. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634659 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:56:49 +0000 catgirl 634659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a poison eye for oxfords with no heel. What about the metallic Borns that Diana has? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634654 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:53:50 +0000 Jonesy 634654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these a lot. I sort of wish they had a teensy bit of a heel (3/4-1"), but maybe you want a true flat? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634651 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:52:23 +0000 Transcona Shannon 634651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like these and think they can be very versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634633 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:45:02 +0000 bj1111 634633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>keep. vote to keep the mesh too, but they are harder to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634603 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:20:31 +0000 Jem 634603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these alot more than the mesh ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634602 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:18:57 +0000 Mochi 634602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cool. It's always helpful to see them styled but I have a feeling these metallics will be more versatile than you thought. Born shoes are comfy and well-made. And look good, obviously. Probably a keeper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634592 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:11:23 +0000 Janet 634592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Meredith, actually the pictures look much shinier than they are IRL. I ruled out a lot of cool oxfords because they were too shiny! These are a little softer, which I like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634591 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:10:42 +0000 Isis 634591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love! Keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634584 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:06:46 +0000 Meredith1953 634584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shape of the shoe and the idea of metallics but these are way shiny and bright. I'm not sure I love them but I know they are on-trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634582 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:05:27 +0000 Anonymous 634582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are nice and comfy. I vote keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634579 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:04:18 +0000 christieanne 634579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't ever go wrong with a metallic shoe in my book. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---born-metallic-oxfords#post-634575 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:02:31 +0000 Janet 634575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I posted another pair of oxfords for feedback, but I ordered these too and thought I'd get your opinions. </p> <p>I LOVE the metallic, and they are very comfortable. Not as breathable as the mesh ones I posted, but the upside is that these would transition into cooler weather better. These aren't quite as unique as the PLV's but I still like them.</p> <p>I'm tempted to keep these regardless of what I do with the PLV's. </p>
