I’m more likely to get an outfit to work with the shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327890 Mon, 26 Jun 2023 15:37:42 +0000 Vildy 2327890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>nice lines on those ballet flats </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327885 Mon, 26 Jun 2023 14:12:50 +0000 RobinF 2327885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your thinking. Sometimes thinking about the need can take the enjoyment out of shopping. Nice shoes!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327763 Sun, 25 Jun 2023 10:41:35 +0000 Janet 2327763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice selections! So glad you found success. I find that sometimes I score the best “next workhorse” pieces when I’m not actively looking. I remember trying on my favorite-for-the-last-three-years boots and thinking “but do I really need another pair of black boots??” Apparently I did, because I have worn them so much since then! And what’s more, they still look good and can easily take me through a full day on my feet. </p> <p>I especially like your thong sandals. I like that style too but kind of over-relied on them some years back so stepped away from the style a little. I do have one black pair that I enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327759 Sun, 25 Jun 2023 06:12:40 +0000 Jenni NZ 2327759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these Sisi especially the gold thong sandals and the pointy white ones. You have pretty feet and nice nail polish!<br /> I think your strategy an excellent one for someone whose wardrobe is not over- large already. As mine is quite large I need to be a bit more selective- as also I like a heap of items especially shoes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327757 Sun, 25 Jun 2023 02:46:33 +0000 Carla 2327757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice shoes and you wear the thong sandal well. &nbsp;Pretty feet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327752 Sun, 25 Jun 2023 01:33:53 +0000 Jaime 2327752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Three great picks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327636 Sat, 24 Jun 2023 01:56:32 +0000 Dee 2327636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I definitely agree that if you happen upon something that you really like and fits your style, why not go for it.

My blue loafers last year were a bit of a wild card (since loafers so rarely stay on my feet) and not a felt need. Yet I wore them as my indoor shoes all winter and they got well over 100 wears.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327569 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 15:26:25 +0000 Sisi 2327569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Suntiger, Mirjana, Star, Angie, Christel, LJP</b> - thank you for your kind comments. A lot of love for my thong sandals, I see! Luckily I can wear thongs and they are the only type of sandal that makes my feet feel "free" when it's hot,&nbsp; if you understand what I mean.&nbsp; 40 deg C in these days.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327564 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 15:09:03 +0000 LJP 2327564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the gold thongs - but like Angie, can't wear them &nbsp;(well, choose not to, is a better explanation) . &nbsp;It's such a classic, sophisticated style. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327535 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 13:59:27 +0000 ChristelJ 2327535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They all look so pretty on your feet. I like your method of going for it when the right ones appear. Shoes in particular can be hard to find when you need them. I love shopping, though, so it's fun for me to hunt something down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327533 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 13:41:58 +0000 Angie 2327533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My type of shoes :)</p> <p>Such excellent luck, <b>Sisi</b>!&nbsp;</p> <p>I LOVE the gold sandals! If I could wear thong type shoes, I would get those. Sooo pretty, classic, and dainty.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327527 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 13:14:11 +0000 Star (Lise) 2327527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All fab!&nbsp; The gold are especially pretty.&nbsp; Your strategy is my strategy too.&nbsp; I have bought quite a number of shoes this year while not actually seeking them out.&nbsp; I have difficult feet so when I come across something I like that is comfortable and a good price I go for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327522 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 12:20:08 +0000 Mirjana 2327522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful shoes, you did right thing. It's the same my strategy, especially about the shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327521 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 12:18:15 +0000 Anonymous 2327521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the gold ones especially! Shoes get worn a lot, so it's ok to have quite a few pairs! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-purchases---shoes#post-2327519 Fri, 23 Jun 2023 12:08:32 +0000 Sisi 2327519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello dear Fabbers!</p> <p>I would like to share with you my latest purchases. I do not like shopping, but when the <b>right </b>thing just appears in front of you without you having made the effort to look for it … ah, that makes me feel so excited! </p> <p>This has&nbsp;been the case with these 3 pairs of shoes that I found by accident in the&nbsp;space of a week:</p> <p>- golden thong sandals (I badly need sandals at present)</p> <p>- white pointy shoes</p> <p>- nude shoes - super comfortable.</p> <p>At present I do not need the last two ones, but I have recently adopted a new strategy in&nbsp;shopping. When I'll see something that <b>I like</b>, and that is <b>my style</b>,&nbsp;I will grab it, even if I do not need it. It will come handy later, when I could have a wardrobe hole but not have the time/energy/willing to go shopping. And in any case I could not find what I like, as it is often the case.</p> <p>For example last year, in early Summer,&nbsp; I bought my white ballet flats with no real need of them. But they turned out to be the right shoes for Fall and Spring mild-weather days. Up to date they have been worn 36+ times. Success!</p> <p>Comments welcome.</p>
