I think so too. And I normally don't even like sneakers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-728255 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 18:38:00 +0000 bj1111 728255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>astrid, these shoes are amazing. casual vibe but executed in a dressy suede. dresses us shorts and a tee, dresses down skirts/dresses. so so fun. i.want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-728245 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 18:25:58 +0000 Astrid 728245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Deborah and Lyn! I've kept the burgundy ones. I think they'll work well enough, and the color is gorgeous. I really like the way they look, and you're all right that they will transition well into fall. That way I can wear them afterwards too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-728236 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 18:16:52 +0000 lyn67 728236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This colour is very "hot" now, Astrid, pls keep. I think will work better with your jacket, as that is also a dark colour, but absolutely understand your dilema, the taupe will bookend your hair so well, in but will have a better use in a warmer weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-728070 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 10:16:24 +0000 Deborah 728070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid I am. Or a lover of sneakers but these look good. I think this color is great and I see it working with your wardrobe better than a taupe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-728066 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 09:49:06 +0000 Astrid 728066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Texstyle! I haven't come across either before. I've just had a look and Merell is available here at Amazon, but I didn't find Born shoes anywhere. I'll kepp them in mind for future searches! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727784 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 21:36:47 +0000 texstyle 727784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you could go either way on the color and the style looks good to me. I also have wide feet and have a hard time finding shoes. Have you ever tried Merrells or Born? They both some cute casual flats with decent insoles and outer soles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727712 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 20:22:31 +0000 Astrid 727712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Scarlet and Suz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727698 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 20:13:27 +0000 Suz 727698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these are a great choice for the time of year. So glad you found something suitable! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727679 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 20:03:13 +0000 Scarlet 727679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of taupe for warm weather, but burgundy will transition into fall better. Probably burgundy, then. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727671 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 19:59:44 +0000 Astrid 727671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shannon! You're right, it's one of the hot colors, I didn't think about that. They definitely look nice with jeans, purples and blues, although I didn't like them as much with the combi I wore today (black pants and green cardi with eggplant scarf). </p> <p>Thanks Sylvie! I'm not sure. I think the other ones might go with everything, I feel like I may have to think more about my outfits with the burgundy ones. But I'm not sure if that would really be the case in everyday life. I don't have any red shoes, but the other ones might be more versatile for the holiday. I'm just not sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727660 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 19:52:57 +0000 Sylvie 727660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am always pro burgundy. Which pair allows you to make more outfits? And not just any outfits but outfits that you couldn't make with a different pair of shoes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727659 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 19:48:38 +0000 Transcona Shannon 727659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look great on you Astrid and it sounds they are extremely comfortable and will serve you well. I really like the burgundy colour - for one thing, they're a little more fun, they will work well with your wardrobe, plus it's one of the hot colours for this season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---exhausted-after-shoe-shopping-or-i-wish-i-had-a-smartphone#post-727652 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 19:42:32 +0000 Astrid 727652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went shoe shopping for my upcoming holiday today after work and seriously, I'm exhausted. But I went home with a pair! Even if it took my four hours of search...</p> <p>The brand wasn't known to me before, it's called Legero. </p> <p><a href="http://www.legero.at/" rel="nofollow">http://www.legero.at/</a></p> <p>I'm not a sneaker girl at all, but these are comfortable even on my wide feet, cushy, soft and really lightweight and thin. And they still have nice soles. Awesome! </p> <p>These would be my normal shoes next to the hiking boots. I also think that they look nice with bare legs and might also work with a skirt, even if it's not the best look.</p> <p>Now to my dilemma - I couldn't decide on the color. I obviously got the burgundy, but I had the SA put the other color aside until tomorrow. I think I changed from one color to the other five times and just didn't know which one to get. That was the moment I thought a smartphone with YLF app might be nice! ;)</p> <p>The other color was a midbrownish taupeish color and it wasn't an exact match, but they were fairly close to the perfect bookending color. And they would really go with everything, a true neutral. Now these ones here are fairly versatile too I think, but they are definitely more noticeable. </p> <p>Now you may think I bought this pair and not the other one because I DID like them best, but truly, that's not the case. I just thought I'd get the more flashy ones to show you. :)</p> <p>Thoughts? Should I keep these? Or go back for the other ones?</p> <p>(Unfortunately I didn't find a pic of the other color online. Oh and excuse my look, I haven't styled anything.)</p> <p>ETA<br /> I didn't find a jacket that would have worked. It's the wrong time now, all the jackets in the stores are too warm for the weather we will be having. But I think I have a solution - I still have a thin black Fjällräven jacket that I can take. It's gear, but it looks alright. It's a bit boxy but I think the biggest problem are the too long sleeves. I'm going to ask if alterations are possible tomorrow. It shouldn't be a problem, the sleeves are unlined and it's a cotton blend fabric. </p>
