These are fantastic.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480634 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 21:43:58 +0000 Beth Ann 1480634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What cute shoes!&nbsp; I think it would be a good idea to have at least one pair of "wild card" shoes for each season, if you can manage it.&nbsp; </p> <p>Sounds like you found a great skirt!&nbsp; That would be the priority! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480602 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 20:02:56 +0000 Astrid 1480602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Joy! Also for the Zara recommendation. I agree, that might be a better option. Well I don't need to hurry with the shoes, I'll keep looking for a bit until I decide what to try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480597 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 19:53:44 +0000 Anonymous 1480597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I was playing with ROG, pretending to be you, it chose some grey leopard print sneakers. An animal pattern may be fun but more neutral for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480592 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 19:50:07 +0000 Astrid 1480592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL, Rachylou... :-D</p> <p>Thanks Unfrumped and Daria! You raise some good points. Now I'm not sure I shouldn't go for something a bit different if I only get one new pair... I'll think about it. There's still a bit of wear left in my old sneakers in any case. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480529 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 17:56:03 +0000 Daria 1480529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid they are definitely lovely! Now whether they are practical enough to be one of your few pairs of footwear is a totally different question. From what I saw your wardrobe is mostly neutral, so it might work.<br />(And funny enough, I received a Hotter catalog in the mail few days ago and was about to ask if anybody is familiar with the brand. They position themselves as the most comfortable shoes on the market :)). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480525 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 17:46:12 +0000 unfrumped 1480525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them and I believe this brand is known for good fit and comfort.<br />That said, I wonder if they are young and hip enough for you? Should be more graphic and less dainty in print? Thinking young Euro sporty chic, though that may be off-base. However, "You" is what you decide. Just trying to give alternatives. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480520 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 17:34:29 +0000 rachylou 1480520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I <i>like </i>the floral sneaks.</p> <p>I'm filled with a desire to wear them with your dark floral dress, because that would be evil. Lol. </p> <p>You're lucky you don't have this kind of evil in your bloodstream, Astrid, and will only use floral for good...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480501 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 16:16:58 +0000 Astrid 1480501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Laura! You wanted to try some oxfords, right? Good to hear that the quality seemed to be good.Everything including returns looks very easy on the German website.</p> <p>Thanks Tanya! I'd have to try them to know how comfortable they truly are, but at least the width would be right from the start. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480494 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 16:09:12 +0000 Tanya 1480494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cute!&nbsp; If they are very comfy I say get them and enjoy them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480493 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 16:07:37 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1480493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're charming and could contrast well with your more basic pieces. I had a negative experience with Hotter customer service when I tried them, but the quality of the shoes themselves seemed good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480489 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 15:55:24 +0000 Astrid 1480489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Merwoman, the answer is - I don't know. I can't remember ever having patterned footwear since I was a child. I don't think the pattern would bother me with these, I'm actually more hesitant about them being too bright with the white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480486 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 15:47:26 +0000 merwoman 1480486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such great looking sneaks! What's your track record for wearing 'patterned' footwear? I am often seduced by prints - but find I leave the shoes languishing when it comes to making an outfit.<br /> Just a little too much going on sometimes.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480485 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 15:41:22 +0000 Astrid 1480485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the input everyone! </p> <p>@Jules<br />Yes, two or three outfits won't be a problem.</p> <p>@Joy<br />Yes, I think both with the green striped tee and the purple one. I'm not sure about wearing them with the floral dresses, but probably rather not.</p> <p>@approprio<br />I agree, the range is rather weird. I had thought about getting the blue ones at first, but I've a tendency toward solids... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480478 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 15:05:30 +0000 Anonymous 1480478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're just what you need to sparkle up your look for spring and that you'll be surprised at how wearable they are.&nbsp;<br />They look well made and they're adorable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480474 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 15:00:44 +0000 approprio 1480474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a weird brand. A few pairs of strikingly nice shoes mixed in with a load of fugly orthopaedic styling. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.hotter.com/gb/en/womens/womens-shoes/leanne-shoes">These sneakers</a> are nice. So are <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.hotter.com/gb/en/womens/womens-best-sellers/sorbet-shoes">these loafers.</a>&nbsp;And I'm strangely drawn to <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.hotter.com/gb/en/womens/womens-heels/sorrento">these lady pumps</a>.&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyway. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.hotter.com/gb/en/womens/womens-shoes/mabel-shoes">Sweet looking sneaks</a>. I'm thinking the plain navy denim might be more versatile. But don't let me talk you out of those fun florals.

Why not wear them with everything as if they went together? A signature piece for summer.<br /> ETA: I can see them with your green tee and with a striped tee. How do they look with your dark floral dress? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480458 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 14:22:30 +0000 Jules 1480458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up! They won't go with everything but seem like the kind of item that are fun to wear and earn their cost in pleasure and style quotient if not pure CPW. I'd just check that you have 2-3 outfits that feel great with them, or that they work with things you plan to purchase. I think they'd go great with a variety of neutral summer items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480457 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 14:20:13 +0000 Diana 1480457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them!&nbsp; I could definitely see these working with your wardrobe.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480456 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 14:15:25 +0000 Astrid 1480456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Carter! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480452 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 14:05:58 +0000 carter 1480452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic sneakers! What a great way to put a little Spring in your step:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-canvas-sneakers#post-1480441 Sun, 26 Apr 2015 13:45:16 +0000 Astrid 1480441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have way too few shoes right now... I decided a while ago to pay more attention to comfort and fit and because I have wide feet that makes shoe shopping difficult. I found these floral sneakers online - they're from Hotter, an UK brand which is still mainly produced in the UK. They offer many of their shoes in wider widths. Some styles are a bit too "old lady", but I rather like these. I think they'd look lovely with my everyday bag which is tan. </p> <p>What do you think? Would they be a good addition? Do you like the floral? My first urge was to search for something solid colored and neutral so it would work with everything, but these are definitely more fun. At the moment I would be a bit limited when it comes to things I could wear them with because I'm not much into pattern mixing anymore, but that doesn't mean there won't be more options with further additions to the wardrobe. &nbsp; </p> <p>(They offer some discount and free shipping on the first order. I have some things on Ebay and could use the earnings for the shoes.) </p> <p>ETA</p> <p>I just found what may be the perfect replacement skirt for my worn out black skirt online, so I'm putting these on hold for a bit. It might be a good idea to see if they're still tempting me in a week or two anyway. But thanks again to everyone for the input!</p>
