I prefer the toe shape of your other pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191916 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 22:55:48 +0000 Angie 1191916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute, but in the same breath, I'm thinking you need a cooler light tone on your feet, like a light grey or taupe.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191858 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 20:45:18 +0000 viva 1191858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JAileen, the wingtips are Cole Haan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191857 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 20:44:35 +0000 viva 1191857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm just not convinced of these, although for me it still is the color more than anything that seemed to bother anyone else.&nbsp; But thanks everyone for chiming in. I think they are going back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191778 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 18:08:17 +0000 catgirl 1191778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Unfrumped wrote what I would have said... Oxfords are a weakness for me though. I might have said keep without question but for the other comments here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191767 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 17:51:36 +0000 JAileen 1191767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them. I'm very sensitive to shoes making my big feet look big. The elongating effect usually is ameliorated by wear lines.</p> <p>I really like the brown ones (the wingtips). What are they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191764 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 17:34:50 +0000 unfrumped 1191764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What JG said--to me that is an entirely personal choice but it's an issue for me, too, with long feet, in my&nbsp; oxford&nbsp;quests, &nbsp;and adding in the oxford style not being the "least amount of shoe" one can wear.<br />The rounded toes are not as trending to my eye, but then, rounded toes are much better for my feet, so I'm avoiding true pointy altogether, and also anything too tapered (which I can fit into, and look great but pinch and hurt after a short time), while still trying to get an oval or refined shape if possible, if that makes any sense. <br />But, there are a lot of boxes to be ticked in finding shoes and for me, the right shade and color, and fit, &nbsp;have been more elusive in the nude colors.&nbsp;And then the &nbsp;whole point of an oxford style for me is that it&nbsp;can be&nbsp;a way to get in some style in a comfortable and walkable shoe, &nbsp;so if that is missing, there is no point (again, for me) as I can find sorta-mostly-comfortable shoes in other styles, but if it's there, then I'm very tempted.&nbsp;Also I think the metallic part + nude is very cool and not very common. </p> <p>So I think you may have to keep all of the more minor points in perspective,&nbsp;with&nbsp;your&nbsp;larger goals, such as&nbsp;if it's very comfortable and "makes" a lot of your outfits, then there you go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191751 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 17:14:53 +0000 Mia 1191751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Something about the toe looks a teeny bit "off" in the photos to me. &nbsp;Is that what is giving you pause? &nbsp; Love the metallic detail. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191750 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 17:13:43 +0000 JG 1191750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the shoes but don't love them on due to the elongating effect that Liz notes. But I'm especially sensitive to this issue as a person with not just big feet but also feet that are big for my height. I look for a sole that doesn't extend past the toe and for features, like wingtips, that break up the (on me) long expanse from toe tip to eyelets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191745 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 17:10:44 +0000 Sarah A 1191745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also had hesitations about the color of my light gray leather oxfords when I got them too. I was worried as a gray they didnt read "nude"... in the year i have had them they have become a major workhorse! I like these with the metallic detailing. I dont think you look overly pink skin toned wearing them. Now heading over to free people to check for my size... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191737 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 17:04:26 +0000 viva 1191737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone think the color is off? I feel like they make me look so pink. I don't wear nude shoes although I just bought the nude Okalas and they may have the same effect. I wonder if a little suntan will offset this, and maybe it's not an issue if I stick with pants (Sara L, I'm not wild about the skirt styling, was just trying to stretch a little) ... but in general, I am struggling a little with the leather color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191732 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 16:59:13 +0000 Sara L. 1191732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them. &nbsp;They're lighter than your other pairs so I think they will work for different outfits than your existing pairs. &nbsp;I really like the two outfits you posted with pants. &nbsp;(The skirt outfit is probably fine, but I have a slight&nbsp;poison eye for skirts and oxfords). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191729 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 16:56:14 +0000 Liz 1191729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm...I really like the color and the metallic; they seem versatile, and oxfords are obviously a workhorse for you. But something about the toes of the new pair seems oddly elongating to my eye. I don't know what's causing me to think that; they seem to have roughly the same proportions as your other pairs.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191727 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 16:55:18 +0000 kkards 1191727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so, they're very retro, but in a totally good way. i like them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191725 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 16:51:46 +0000 Anonymous 1191725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191723 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 16:50:40 +0000 AviaMariah 1191723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like them. &nbsp;I think the metallic makes them really interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-jc-oxfords#post-1191722 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 16:48:54 +0000 viva 1191722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are the Jeffrey Campbell oxfords I just received from Free People. Originally $178, marked down to $50. I have shown them next to my two other pairs of oxfords (clearly I like this style). They are a little stiff so need to be broken in. I have my own thoughts but am holding off on expressing them for now. What do you think? Honest opinions please. </p>
