This is all very confusing for some reason </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690693 Sat, 11 Aug 2012 00:30:34 +0000 Anonymous 690693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the lighter color might work better with dresses as well but I have not yet adjusted to the look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690659 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 23:33:14 +0000 Deborah 690659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also thought the taupe might be a better choice. The black just looks very heavy and I am struggling to see them really working with dresses. Fan for pants though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690540 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 21:27:41 +0000 cciele 690540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>missvee -- hm, I see what you mean by the heaviness. but yeah, they'll go good with pants :)</p> <p>Diana - I also like the juxtaposition! Fun to play with contrasts.</p> <p>Kim - I wanted to order the taupe version during the sale, but they were out of my size. I see they are back though -- wondering if I could exchange the black for the taupe at the sale price. I agree with you and Diana that color would work better with dresses. And thanks for the Zappos suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690536 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 21:24:01 +0000 Queen Mum 690536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you search zappos? </p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/rieker-43706-mirjam-06-whitekiesel" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/rieker-4.....hitekiesel</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/big-buddha-rebel-black-distress" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/big-budd.....k-distress</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/product/7999071/color/57142" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/product/7999071/color/57142</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690525 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 21:13:10 +0000 Queen Mum 690525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm having the same dilemma... realizing I dont' have much in the way of non-boot closed flat shoes.<br /> My personal opinion is that if you're wanting an oxford to wear with a variety of dresses you might do better with a lighter color. Did you consider the taupe version of that one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690503 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 20:46:27 +0000 Diana 690503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them! Outfit #1 is fab, really dramatic and bold! The shoes look a little dark for the dress in #2, although I do think this dress would work with oxfords (maybe just a slightly lighter color shoe).</p> <p>I wear my flat oxfords how other people would wear ballet flats. With secret socks under skirts/dresses and pants. With tights. I also wear mine with frilly ankle socks but I think that is an acquired taste. As per Angie's blog this morning, I like the juxtaposition of the slightly more manly shoe with more feminine elements. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690494 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 20:40:04 +0000 missvee 690494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the outfit in pic 1 - it's interesting and arty yet minimal. I'm not so sure about the shoes with the dress in pic 2 . They seem a bit heavy. I love the shoes and think they will look amazing with tights and skirts, and with jeans and pants as you say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-naya-teak-oxfords-ballet-slipper-sub#post-690471 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 20:17:59 +0000 cciele 690471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I only own one pair of flats (burgundy slipper loafers, not including my Converse) and am finding I need non-boot flat alternatives because my knees sometimes complain about heels.</p> <p>I've never worn oxfords before, but thought the Naya ones Angie put on the NAS pick list looked cute. I like the quirky details - thick shoelaces, snakeskin heel cap. But I dont know how to style them (except for the obvious pants).</p> <p>Anyhow, do you think they work in these outfits? Other suggestions for flats (not ballet style though)?</p> <p>Thanks for your help!</p> <p>ETA: Link to shoes:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/naya-teak-oxford/3286527?origin=keywordsearch&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=Black&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/na.....sultback=0</a> </p>
