I've never tried them so maybe I'll give them a shot. The only minor issue is that all the ones are like are a bit higher than I said I wanted. Joy - I did try putting inserts into the FL pumps - unfortunately that didn't work either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-shoes#post-94545 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 14:18:49 +0000 Anonymous 94545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Juli, have you tried popping gel or foam inserts into the FL pumps? It may make them a good fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-shoes#post-94537 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 13:37:43 +0000 velvetychocolate 94537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My most comfortable dress pumps (low-ish heels) are ECCO brand, but I'd say you'd need to try some on before buying, as I think their sizing is a wee bit different. </p> <p>Here's a link to a bunch on Zappos - and while they're not under $100 - you can often find them on sale at department stores, Amazon and so on. These may not be 'sassy' enough, but they're definitely comfortable:</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/search/brand/54/filter/categoryFacet/%22Shoes%22/gender/%22Womens%22/hide%3AproductTypeFacet/%22Shoes%22/subCategoryFacet/%22Heels%22/sort/isNew/desc/productPopularity/asc/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/search/b.....arity/asc/</a></p> <p>Sometimes there are slightly lower prices for these on Amazon. </p> <p>These look kind of neat - in the plum:</p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7553828/c/203220.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7553828/c/203220.html</a></p> <p>Not as nice-looking as the Sam Edelmans that Maya posted though.</p> <p>editing to add: I have shoes that are 7.5 and 8's as well - it seems to depend on the brand. In the ECCO brand, I take a Euro 38, and it fits perfectly and comfortably. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-shoes#post-94485 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 04:20:00 +0000 Maya 94485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Juli, they are pretty sturdy and good quality, but the material of the two animal print versions perplexes me. It's...furry. I'm not sure what exactly it is. So I don't know if it's something you would want to wear on a rainy day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-shoes#post-94480 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 03:56:35 +0000 julijuli 94480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - the FL's only come in whole sizes and I'm a 7.5. The 8's were too big and the 7's were too small. It's sad because they looked very comfortable. </p> <p>Maya - i think those are very cute and wondered how sturdy they were. I'm not familiar with Sam Edelman quality - did they look like they would hold up? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-shoes#post-94473 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 03:22:26 +0000 Maya 94473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't find these sufficiently comfortable, but I don't really find anything comfortable so I don't think I'm a reliable gauge. </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3059351?refsid=264421&#038;refcat=0~2376778~2372808~2372940~2376188&#038;SourceID=1&#038;SlotID=2&#038;origin=related&#038;cm_Sp=Related-Items-_-Product-_-Manual" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....t-_-Manual</a></p> <p>They are also over $100, but they are animal print with a low heel and they look absolutely gorgeous on. They remind me of Audrey Hepburn's shoes in Breakfast at Tiffany's. If they go on sale they might be worth a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-shoes#post-94470 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 03:15:52 +0000 Angie 94470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your plight is my plight! Why didn't the FL pumps work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-help-with-shoes#post-94464 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 03:02:31 +0000 julijuli 94464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi again,</p> <p>I've had a terrible time trying to find some low heeled ( 1 - 1 1/2 ") pumps that I could wear with both skirts and pants. I want something comfortable but sassy. I tried the Fly London pumps Angie has but they didn't work for me. I do want to be able to wear them with tights/hose and don't really want to spend more than $100.00. Plus, I don't want to get black - I was thinking of grey, red or even an animal print. </p> <p>Any suggestions!???? </p>
