I love them for you too, <b>Jane.</b> Looking very 2019 swish - and gorgeous with the Boden coat &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2022384 Thu, 25 Apr 2019 21:12:37 +0000 Jane 2022384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, after huge deliberation, I took the berry Reebok out the box and wore today. I love them! HAPPY! Wore with my Boden coat, photos aren't great, but they look better IRL!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Fifthandfinest</b> - that is a super link, thank you. I will take a look at Everlane.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Suntiger, </b>yes, maybe. It feels a bit strange at first. My extra inch allows me to reach more!</p> <p><b>Joy,</b> that is a super suggestion - toffee coloured shoes - perfect! Thank you. I have started The Search!</p> <p><b>Firecracker, </b>they are comfy for walking. I even had to run a little this morning having spent too much time deliberating, and they were fine. Super comfy. And nude micro fishnets are an excellent idea! Thank you.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Gigi, </b>I think you are right, my wardrobe is quite dark. I think that the toffee colour that Joy suggested is a good thing to look into.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2022188 Thu, 25 Apr 2019 04:59:11 +0000 Gigi 2022188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the berry Reeboks.</p> <p>I also like the white shoes with the dark block heel and don't think they look wedding-y at all. However, as others have pointed out, they would likely work better with light-colored outfits and with light hose. If you plan on wearing a lot of dark clothing, then the white shoes might be difficult to work into the outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2022187 Thu, 25 Apr 2019 04:52:20 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2022187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I love the new sneakers and think they are super cute for casual wear and for your commute. The only remaining question is whether they are comfortable for walking.</div><div><br /></div><div>I prefer the Vagabond shoe with the dark block heel; it looks more modern and less dressy (less "wedding shoe," in DH's terms). Not that either shoes really look like wedding shoes to me--haha! But the contrasting dark, block heel reads like "business," not "fancy," to me. I like white for summer. Just adjust the stockings. What about nude micro-fishnets? I like how they look like fine stockings from a distance, but add a little bit of texture to the look, and they are cooler to wear than regular stockings.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2022178 Thu, 25 Apr 2019 03:54:34 +0000 Anonymous 2022178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The white Vagabonds have a dark heel and sole that shows at the edge. For me that takes them out of wedding shoe territory. How about a toffee color shoe that bookends your hair color? It could also be a nude on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2022126 Thu, 25 Apr 2019 00:11:41 +0000 Anonymous 2022126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The thick soles are definitely a thing this year-especially thick white soles. Maybe they take more time to wear out? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2022081 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 21:24:12 +0000 fifthandfinest 2022081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like where you're going with the block heel lady pumps (as I like to call them).

Complete wildcard. Amazing that DS likes them.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Angie, </b>yay, killer comment! I am still not quite there with the berry sneaks. I think the white shoes are going back to the store, both pairs. i can't quite overcome the high contrast.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Suntiger, </b>yes I do agree with you about the berry sneaks. I am not quite comfortable with them yet, because I am wondering if I should stick with a conventional base, being lower. The base on these is double height. But the colour kind of chimes with my skin tone and I think that is what makes them okay.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Anchie, </b>thank you. I am glad you like the Reeboks. Vagabond are super! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2022003 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 17:59:12 +0000 anchie 2022003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Reeboks look great. I have a very good experience with Vagabond - extremely comfy. And they look good too. Like the white with the dark heel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021997 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 17:51:30 +0000 Anonymous 2021997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the berry sneaks more than the green, since they're more of a nude-so easier w sheer tights or bare legs. I like the heels too, definitely not weddingish to me, though I like the red most. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021905 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 13:59:15 +0000 Angie 2021905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that you're commuting in sneaks and swapping out shoes at the office. KILLER berry sneaks, and white pumps.&nbsp;</p> <p>Make sure you like how the white shoes look in outfits <b>Jane</b>, before you commit to them.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021889 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 13:17:12 +0000 lyn67 2021889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am really surprised how intentional/trendy and decent&nbsp; the berry Reeboks look on action with the nude hose and black lace skirt!&nbsp; White shoes are bold you need something to bookend-like Angie's pearls, or a white collar, print in a scarf -or anything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021789 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 06:04:48 +0000 Jane 2021789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your kind comments.</p> <p>I’m veering away from the various choices because I think <b>Cardiffgirl</b> you have a good point about the high contrast for the office. </p> <p><b>Amber</b>, I do agree, I think Vagabond is a good brand, although I haven’t come across them much. </p> <p><b>Kathie</b>, thank you, a try on session is needed, lighter colour clothes will help but most of my wardrobe is darker so I need to be careful. </p> <p>Thank you <b>Mainelady</b>, the white are sharp and comfortable.</p> <p><b>Bijou</b>, the hose are key I think. The Paul Green shoes are super, lovely to have colour! I might have a look at the red today.</p> <p><b>Missvee</b>, yes I like the block heels best and I think they look most ‘me’ as they suit my legs. </p> <p>Thank you <b>Shevia</b>. Wise words on DHs. I’m thinking I work with a lot of men who think along similar lines as DH. So I think the red are calling. </p> <p>The berry are cute <b>Rachylou</b>, I like the softness of the colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021747 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 01:51:05 +0000 rachylou 2021747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The berry are quite smart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021736 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 00:54:25 +0000 Jaime 2021736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do love the v cut and heel of the vagabond shoes. Light shoes are an adjustment, especially for DHs that don't look at fashion shots frequently. But I like the red too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021726 Wed, 24 Apr 2019 00:12:14 +0000 missvee 2021726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the block heels and the high vamp on the Vagabond shoes. They look very modern to me and suit your foot. Which colour would work best in your summer wardrobe? I agree that white takes a bit of getting used to, but it does ‘lift’ an outfit. On the other hand you can’t go wrong with red. Sorry, no help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021716 Tue, 23 Apr 2019 23:21:15 +0000 Bijou 2021716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I am probably no help because I like all of these. You just need a lighter hose with the white shoes. I really like the red pumps, it is a pretty colour. I often wear my red and tangerine pumps with black and white outfits, just to add a pop of colour. Mine are in finds and are both by Paul Green, which I find very comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021714 Tue, 23 Apr 2019 23:14:41 +0000 Mainelady 2021714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the white! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021701 Tue, 23 Apr 2019 22:44:56 +0000 Cardiff girl 2021701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that the white shoes are nice but depends on what you are wearing with them.Are they a bit too contrasty for the office? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021682 Tue, 23 Apr 2019 21:00:53 +0000 Kathie 2021682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The berry trainers are cute! But, if you’re not sure, I’d look for something else. I’d do a try-on session with the white Vagabond shoes, and see if you like them, and can imagine wearing them in the office. Of the two, I like the ones in #6 the best on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021680 Tue, 23 Apr 2019 20:54:24 +0000 amber1989 2021680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair of Vagabond shoes myself but not these ones. They are very comfortable. I think the white pair would look nice with lighter clothing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-shoes-21#post-2021678 Tue, 23 Apr 2019 20:47:27 +0000 Jane 2021678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have looked at new shoes for the commute and office, a formal, conservative place - something for the summer. I need to wear tights, and that has thrown up other issues, so I am trying various nude to me tight options. Today was sherry colour tights and too dark.&nbsp;</p> <p>For the commute, I have decided that trainers are best. The green I have and love, but I wear them a lot and need another pair.&nbsp;So, the deep almost berry colour Reeboks are an option - what do you think. DS says they are good. DH not sure. I'm not sure about the double height base thing, but somehow I thought it might be an option when I looked at them online.&nbsp;</p> <p>Then white shoes, a pair from Vagabond with a dark heel. I think these look goodish, are comfy, but DH says they look like wedding shoes and are too formal. I could try the deep red colour.&nbsp;</p> <p>Then another Vagabond pair, with white kitten heel - comfy, good, but are they too white?&nbsp;</p> <p>May be all my choices are off? Which I am okay with, so all feedback would be very welcome.&nbsp;</p> <p>(legs are DS lounging on the bed along with furry pals)</p>
