Too many orphan warnings (fit, design, season). The silver loafers are staying. Even if they are just plane trip shoes they are comfy and I paid so little for them.

I am leaning toward a return on the booties for fit. They are about 1/2 size big but a perfect shape for my foot. Does not look like they come smaller. I am leaning toward a keep on the loafers because they were so cheap and are comfortable - but I am not certain yet as I fear that is the path to frump. And believe me, I am fully capable of frumpiness!</p> <p>Thank you for all the honesty. Hef in PJs is a little odd but not necessarily a deterrent - is that weird? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1182050 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 02:08:18 +0000 Echo 1182050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The loafers do not work to my eye at all. I cannot pinpoint why, but they really do seem frumpy to me. Perhaps if I could see them with an outfit instead of just close-up it would change my perception. I don't think YOU could ever be frumpy, Una, just that those loafers could take you a long way in that direction if you were really trying!</p> <p>LOVE the booties, but I am partial to black, strappy, studded, stompy things, so you may want to take my opinion on them with a grain of salt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1182031 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 01:40:43 +0000 Jaime 1182031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the loafers. I would be more sure if you posted a full outfit shot - I can only opine so much based on a foot shot! The boots work with your style and I do love your WIW but I don't love the booties themselves&nbsp;and do think you will want to wear them barefoot - although it may be hard to imagine now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1182028 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 01:37:15 +0000 Suz 1182028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha, Anna, I thought <b>EXACTLY</b> the same thing. !!!!!</p> <p>And then I got worried about myself because I actually liked them -- even with that image in mind!!!&nbsp;</p> <p>They sort of remind me of my old Aerosoles comfort shoes, too -- and I totally love them.&nbsp;</p> <p>As for the booties, like Angie I have a bit of a poison eye for the ALGO -- but more than that, it's my gut feeling that without socks those would absolutely <b>KILL</b> my feet. So I worry for that. I want you to have awesome cutout booties for summer that feel as soft as those loafers look.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181976 Sun, 02 Mar 2014 00:41:41 +0000 annagybe 1181976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I kinda like the booties, but the fit issues give me a huge pause.<br />My first thought on the loafers, add silk pajamas and I can see Hugh Hefner wearing them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181953 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 23:55:47 +0000 Marley 1181953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would return the booties - because they probably won't work for you in the summer - and you know, there are a lot of similar summer booties out there that I'm sure that you could find that would fit you better.<br />I like the loafers except that they seem to be really flat.&nbsp; I like loafers that have a bit more of a heel on them.&nbsp; I really love the metallic finish and the shape of these.&nbsp; So frumpy that they are cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181931 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 23:12:25 +0000 JamC 1181931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the loafers and if they are comfortable I would keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181910 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 22:50:03 +0000 Catnip 1181910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the loafers look great, and I like them more than the booties.&nbsp; Nevertheless, I understand that the booties look like you.&nbsp; A note of caution:&nbsp; I've never had any luck with inserts, and I've tried them many times.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181908 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 22:47:52 +0000 deb 1181908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes to the booties, no to the loafers. I sould not say the loafers are ugly, they jut do not seem to fit your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181903 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 22:41:21 +0000 Gigi 1181903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On the booties, I like the look of them (very cool!), but you really wanted something you can wear without socks. If it were me, I would return them and &nbsp;use the money toward something that fits without socks, to avoid cluttering up my closet with something that really isn't doing what I need it to do.&nbsp;</p> <p>I agree that the loafers have a masculine look, and I am like Jules in that I have the poison eye for that. But I think she has an excellent suggestion to style them first and post pix. My first reaction to them was that they are not edgy enough for you. I felt like they were frumpy when I first saw them. I think it is because the vamp is so high and masculine looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181894 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 22:22:39 +0000 JAileen 1181894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the loafers! Does that kill them for you? If they were black they would be too dull, but I love the color. The booties are ok. I personally wouldn't wear them because they wouldn't be warm when it's cold, and wouldn't be cool when it's warm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181892 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 22:15:10 +0000 Jules 1181892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's a challenge for you: try to look frumpy. Because I bet you couldn't if you tried!<br /> That said I need to see the loafers styled, full length shot. To me (as agreed already) they veer masculine and I have a bit of poison eye for masculine loafers. So I'm no help really am I? But you, frumpy? Lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181888 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 22:03:12 +0000 Debra 1181888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both the booties and the loafers you could get some funky socks like Anna to go with the booties. The loafers are perfection nothing frumpy about them......simplicity at it's best IMHO and I want a pair </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181883 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 21:49:06 +0000 Susie 1181883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the loafers. I wasn't sure when you posted them initially, but I love the color and the sleekness. I like the idea of the booties but I would prefer them without the studs. But that's just a personal preference as I am a bit over studs I guess. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181882 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 21:48:05 +0000 rabbit 1181882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the booties if you can get them to work comfortably barefoot also. &nbsp;(And have some socks that you think will pair well.) &nbsp;They add edge to a more simple outfit like relaxed jeans and a flowy top, and look like they go well with other clothes with&nbsp;distressing and fading, and maybe echo strappy detail.&nbsp;</p> <p>The long and flat&nbsp;shape of the loafers and the color&nbsp;gives them potential to me, but they feel more workhorse/basic/foundation against which other more edgy items of clothing can shine, and to my eye they&nbsp;kind of need to be paired up that way unless you were going for a classic look or they were worn with edgy skirts or leggings or something cropped. &nbsp;(this is the problem I've had so far&nbsp;when I've tried on many loafers with rolled jeans).&nbsp;</p> <p>Purely subjective opinion of course. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181879 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 21:44:24 +0000 Jewell 1181879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The booties are interesting- ALGO but very interesting. I like 'em. The loafers don't seem cool enough for you imho.</p> <p>Love today's outfit! Awesome faux tuck and now I'm off to look for your jeans on GAP.com </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181878 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 21:43:07 +0000 Beth Ann 1181878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love an edgy bootie, even if they don't work so well for me, but I'm not loving the pointy things --- I'd be afraid I'd impale the dog, lol (not that I'd kick him intentionally).&nbsp; I do see that they'd work well as a summer shoe in your climate.</p> <p>I like the loafers quite a bit.&nbsp; I like the low contrast, the subtle metallic, and the slightly masculine vibe.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181869 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 21:27:59 +0000 kkards 1181869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another positive vote for the loafers. Can't wait to see them in action. Love the booties,but I'm concerned that you feel they are big. Can you wear them around home without the socks to see if they are comfortable? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181862 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 21:08:50 +0000 catgirl 1181862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>April, just what I was thinking! The more opinions the better - all are appreciated! Angie has nailed my two style personas and yes, these are very much guy-like slipper shoes. I like them but don't want to look frumpy... The booties do need to be tested with an insert. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-two-new-shoe-arrivals#post-1181860 Sat, 01 Mar 2014 21:05:04 +0000 kellygirl 1181860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the loafers. The sandal booties are cool but have ALGO. I think I'm being influenced by my own desire for simplicity. I want loafers like that.<br /> EtA: live the light top in you too! </p>
