Those look like your style. I could also see the Munro Abby working for you, but they are a little more refined looking, to my eye. Personally I think you might need the Abby in the crackle gold color. It would go so well with your hair, and I think the color adds a good dose of edge. (I'm suggesting in addition to the Miss Mooz, not instead of.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469739 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 02:58:07 +0000 Suz 1469739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, the ones you ended up with are fantastic!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469682 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 01:22:40 +0000 kerry 1469682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great sandal bootie! Love them. I hear what you're saying about the lighter sole making them more casual. I found I liked it because I tend toward lighter footwear (bookending, lightness for spring/summer) so I found the lighter sole a benefit but wanted to stick with the black upper because they seem edgier somehow than other colours. Hope you enjoy them and have the weather to wear them. We're still waiting for that weather here in Toronto! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469678 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 01:16:40 +0000 Elizabeth P 1469678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love the buenos on you!  I tried on the Steve Madden's today, and they didn't work for me AT ALL.  So I was fairly bummed, as this is the style of shoe I'm also after.  Those ones you got don't seem very available :(. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469665 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 00:52:00 +0000 DonnaF 1469665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the brown/wooden heel make the Buenos more casual, and chunkiness of the heel probably offsets the height in terms of comfort.&nbsp; I think it is probably more difficult to twist one's ankle with a heel vs. a wedge like the second ones.&nbsp; Doesn't Ms. Mooz have a reputation for making comfy but stylish footwear without being a true *comfort* brand?&nbsp; (Typed as she goes to click on Zappos and Amazon tabs to check out their Ms. Mooz offerings.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469658 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 00:42:53 +0000 AM 1469658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These Buenos are really great! I vote yes for these and who knows, you might end up loving the brown/wooden heel. I'd say the extra hunting paid off but how are you feeling&nbsp;about these?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469641 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 00:17:57 +0000 jackiec 1469641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DonnaF - edgy lite - YES! I agree, if I can get them at a big discount then I might try them again in a different colour - the gold crackle appeals to me too actually.</p> <p>SaraL - thanks. As per above I think I'm going to go more chunky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469636 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 00:16:22 +0000 jackiec 1469636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops lost my post.</p> <p>I'm following my niggly gut feeling and returning the Munros. They are crazy comfy and wonderful. But I'm going to go with something chunkier.</p> <p>So, I popped into a local shoe store, found nothing, and then realized I'd parked in front of another fab shoe store (Miss Mooz). It was packed with lots of comfy options that I loved.</p> <p>So these Buenos came home with me. Pros - crazy comfy, super soft leather<br />Cons - wooden/brown heel - but not a deal breaker - let's face it - I'm a casual person, heel height seems a bit higher, but they are super comfy so don't feel high at all. Did I mention they are comfy? Like a pair of leather gloves.</p> <p>Photo #3 are the ones that didn't come home with me. I just couldn't get the sizing to work. But I LOVED the style.</p> <p>What do you think?.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469629 Tue, 07 Apr 2015 00:08:32 +0000 Sara L. 1469629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look great on you, but I don't think they're particularly chunky, if that's what you're going for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469626 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 23:58:42 +0000 DonnaF 1469626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Abby looks great on you; the fit looks spot on.&nbsp; I ordered a pair (the crackly gold ones), then returned them because I decided I didn't love them close to $200 worth (including tax) since I wasn't dying to wear them the day the weather was warm.&nbsp; I also have Una's Jambus but in red on my Wish List but I think I need to stick to buckled sandals or better yet lace up ones to give me a better fit.</p> <p>The Abby provides a fair amount of support for a sandal and is a great MOTG option, especially for a heeled sandal.&nbsp; It doesn't look orthopedic like a number of other Munro options.&nbsp; That being said, I would classify it as Edgy Lite vs. Edgy IYKWIM.&nbsp; I would consider re-ordering the Abby if I could get them below $100 and if I could justify another pair of sandals since my feet run cold and have Reynauds and where I live it makes the news when the temps reach the F80s.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469578 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 22:30:01 +0000 catgirl 1469578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've eyed these for a while now.&nbsp; I like them!&nbsp; I'm also considering these Jambus... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469567 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 22:19:41 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1469567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought these last year, around NAS time, mostly because I thought they looked so great on Natalie. Then even though I liked them, I sent them back because I thought they filled too much of the same niche as a pair of Sam Edelman gladiator wedge sandals I had been wearing a lot. I had been reconsidering them this year but I'm still thinking if I want a semi open bootie it should have a closed toe that allows for wearing hosiery (it's still cold out.)</p> <p>I don't dispute that they look great.</p> <p>And also I think no more black shoes this season, because I bought these attached finds for my recent vacation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469539 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 21:51:04 +0000 jackiec 1469539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback. I'm on the fence. I did order the Robyns last year, loved the comfort, but ended up returning them because they were a bit too refined looking than what I was looking for. Thinking it could be the same here. I even went back to The Bay to try on the Steve Maddens&nbsp;<i>again&nbsp;</i>to see if another pair would feel better than what I got online. I was soooo on the fence because of comfort.&nbsp;</p> <p>kerry - thanks for the heads up on the Mimosa. I might try them. Only thing is that I prefer an all black sole to the wooden look (for what I'd wear them for). But I might still pop over to Browns to do some trying on for comparison.</p> <p>Angie - Lexi says "hi!" I agree on the edgy-factor. I'm going to give this a think-through. When I bought the Munro's, I got a $75 voucher for my next purchase (I've been eyeing the white Birkies). Perhaps I have sale/voucher goggles on too..... </p> <p></p> <p>AM - yes - question of "chunk" indeed. Good way to phrase it!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469508 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 21:28:53 +0000 Angie 1469508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Look at your baby in #3. My heart is melting.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love both styles on you, Jackie. The fit of the Munros in #4 is perfect.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think sandal #6 looks edgier than the Munros, but I bet they aren't as comfortable. Is it worth it?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469496 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 21:09:20 +0000 kerry 1469496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the Abbys fit great. Owning the Robyns, I'm sure they are very comfortable. Personally, I like the look of the sandal bootie better. I tried the Steve Maddens (in black) too and didn't love the feel. So I got the Mimosa black sandal bootie from Browns. They fit true to size - just thought I'd throw out another option </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469484 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 21:01:33 +0000 AM 1469484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a question of chunk. I don't see these as chunky but more refined. So I guess it depends on what you're going for. I prefer the Steve Madden and would be tempted to look for something with that level of chunk. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469464 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 20:41:22 +0000 carter 1469464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Munro, and I think that as they stretch a bit with wear, your foot will slide forward just enough to be perfect.

I have more of an issue when toes are reaching over the ends of open toed sandals. Your heels seem to be just at the edge, not over and your toes are good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469410 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 19:46:18 +0000 Thistle 1469410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I looked at the picture before I read the whole post (yeah, I am totally guilty of that.) And all I thought was "wow, those look fab!".</p> <p>Then I read your post, and went back and looked for the Cinderella step-sister thing. Nope, still look fab&nbsp; :)</p> <p>I own a pair of Munro booties. Super comfy.</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-munro-abby-sandal#post-1469407 Mon, 06 Apr 2015 19:43:26 +0000 jackiec 1469407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been in the market for a comfy, chunky black sandal this spring. I tried the Steve Madden Shallow earlier this year - I like the block heel and relatively lower heel height. I'm a consistent 7.5 but the snaps kept opening when I walked with the 7.5, but I was swimming in the 8 (photo #5).</p> <p>Then I remembered how much I liked the look of the Munro Abby on many fabbers (especially Natalie - goldenpig), and they were one of Angie's picks in NAS last summer.&nbsp;</p> <p>I ordered my usual size 7.5 from a Canadian website. They are incredibly comfortable. My question is, does my heel look like it's coming off the back end? I'm wondering if I look like one of Cinderella's stepsisters jamming her foot into a too-small shoe. They do not feel too small. I'm guessing the suede will stretch a bit with wear as well.</p> <p>I popped into the mall to try on the size 8, and it really seemed significantly bigger and wider. It didn't work.</p> <p>My question is this. How does the fit look, and secondly (and more importantly), how is the style for me? Should I keep looking? Angie has posted lots of options for the higher vamp, chunkier sandals. I really feel i need to add edge with footwear. I'm looking for something edgy (I know the word is overused), mid heel height, black, and comfy. If I were in the US, I'd order lots to try and return, but it's way more difficult in Canada.</p> <p>Opinions wanted. What do you think? </p>
