And, as a fellow short brunette, I love Susie's take on things! Sometimes it's totally worth it to trade a little bit of traditional flattery for more fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267661 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 23:52:10 +0000 Carla 1267661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for 'keep'. I'm having a white moment, and have a candy eye...but still...I think these look great, and I especially like pics #1 and #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267654 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 23:45:47 +0000 kellygirl 1267654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Susie: I know. I have a thing about white shoes too. Thanks for sharing your white sandal experience. Gives me hope :)</p> <p>@Caro: Thanks! I’ve got the linen pants. I will be trying those too.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Angie: Thank you for weighing in! Your taste is impeccable. I will wear these for you!</p> <p>@pil: Thanks! DD’s feet have passed mine by. I’m the smallest foot in the house but you are right--these would be great on long, slender legs!&nbsp;</p> <div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267629 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 23:22:06 +0000 pil 1267629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Add me to the thumbs up pile. They may be a challenge to style but they surely work with your MOTG looks. Do your girls wear the same size as you if you find yourself not reaching for them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267627 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 23:21:32 +0000 Angie 1267627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love, love,<b> LOVE</b>. Chic, trendy, crisp, modern&nbsp;-&nbsp;and just as classic. White shoes are my best.&nbsp;</p> <p>I would be all over white gladiators if they worked for my feet and climate.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267606 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 23:12:55 +0000 Caro in Oz 1267606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Susie said. I think they work &amp; I actually prefer them with the jeans &amp; first skirt They would look great with white jeans or linen pants&nbsp;too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267544 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 22:25:52 +0000 Susie 1267544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>PS&nbsp; I still sort of have this "thing" in my mind about white shoes.&nbsp;</p> <p>But&nbsp;I bought a pair of white sandals to wear casually and I really&nbsp;like them! Even though they are bright white and have an ankle strap, I think they are&nbsp; more than JFE because they work so well with summer outfits like white denim shorts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267535 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 22:10:06 +0000 kellygirl 1267535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Fabbers. I think some of you think these are JFE and I think I’m okay with that. They could be a good sandal to play around with this summer--trendy and inexpensive but nice quality. Perhaps I should see if I reach for them over the next few weeks or not.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Jules and Echo: Lol! That makes three of us who are a little afraid of white sandals. I really wouldn’t have even considered them if I hadn’t seen Angie’s post. Thanks for the thumbs up.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Ceit, Inge and Susie: Thank you. They are very fresh--in fact, that’s what I like about them them most. As you know, I was trying to find a black sandal because that is what I thought my wardrobe hole was when I tried these kind of outfits with them, the shoes looked so heavy--even the strappy sandals. I’m not 100% sure this is the way to go but I like them better than black so far. @Susie: lol--thanks for getting on the soap box!&nbsp;</p> <p>@Thistle: Thank you. IKWYM about the leg line. That’s what makes me hesitant--plus they are SO white. I appreciate your candor :)</p> <p>@Suz: Thanks! Yes, I think they only work with light toppers or light bottoms. I really wanted a flat shoe that would work with light bottoms since I won’t always be able to wear the Eliana’s.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Zibbets: Thanks! Nude sandals were my go to sandal for the last couple of summers. I still have a pair or two but I’m not wanting them as much as I used to. I am craving something a little crisper these days. Of course, not 100% sure these are it though.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267529 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 22:02:22 +0000 Mona 1267529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These will be a lovely addition to your already awesome shoe collection! To my eye they look best with shorts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267518 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 21:45:58 +0000 Zibbets 1267518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm warming up to gladiators, but I don't think I'm a fan of the white ones yet. I think I would prefer something closer to skintone.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267513 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 21:41:29 +0000 Susie 1267513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them. A lot. </p> <p>The reality is that those of us who are "height challenged" just don't have runway length legs. And there are certainly shoes that would make your legs look longer. But I don't think it always has to be about going for a leggy look. These are a fun style, appropriate for the season and for the outfits so why not wear them? The same shoe in black would look much more heavy and not nearly as summery and fresh. And do you really want to be limited to shoe choices that match your hair?!&nbsp;&nbsp;I think it's enough that they&nbsp;look great with the white tee.<br />&nbsp;<br />Sorry, off my short person soapbox now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267501 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 21:27:21 +0000 Echo 1267501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going with Jules on this. Normally I don't like either gladiators or white sandals, but surprisingly I like these. I like the contrast they provide, and because they are taller sandals they are somehow less stumpifying than others in my eye. I vote keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267499 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 21:21:34 +0000 Suz 1267499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you wear lots of white or light tops or toppers, I say yes. They work best to my eye with the skirts. I think the BFs might need another roll to work well with them. Or save for shorts/ skirts looks.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267468 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 20:49:47 +0000 Thistle 1267468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hate going against the crowd, but I am not a fan. I do like the graphic white, but I feel like they contrast a great deal which can be stumpifying and they will require a lot more effort in bookending. The higher gladiator style, which I do like, tends to shorten the leg line to begin with.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267464 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 20:43:20 +0000 Inge 1267464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A big yes from me too, Kellygirl. I think they work great with the white tee. If you have dark hair, you can always use tops, jackets or scarves to bookend </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267454 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 20:25:55 +0000 Anonymous 1267454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they look good --- yes, bookending with a dark sandal would be a slam dunk, but the white is really fresh and summery and its own statement! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267451 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 20:11:13 +0000 Jules 1267451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I like them, and that surprises me a bit as I don't particularly like gladiators OR white sandals! They look good in all these stylings. The BFs might be a little stumpier than the other looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-white-gladiators#post-1267449 Mon, 02 Jun 2014 20:04:15 +0000 kellygirl 1267449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I apologize for another K/R.&nbsp;&nbsp;I went out on a limb and ordered the white gladiators that Angie recommended (after returning a slew of black sandals.) Do you think these look too stark with my dark hair? Too stumpifying? I kind of like them but will defer to the forum :)&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks in advance! </p>
