Quite the haul! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-new-boots-pumps#post-1133076 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 20:18:59 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1133076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies!</p> <p>Suz, the pumps do stay on so far. I am thinking there might be a little heel slippage at some point, but it's the kind that a heel grip would fix, rather than the kind that comes from the shoes being too long. I got the 7 M/Eur 37 1/2 in these; it's my usual size, but often I size up because my foot is a little bit wide. I tried on the 7 1/2, and they would not stay on at all. The 7 was a little snug across the instep, so the sales associate stretched them for me, and they fit perfectly now. </p> <p>Angie, your picks put the idea in my head. I didn't look back to see if you had picked this pump or the lower-heeled one. They didn't have the lower heel for me to try on. I did try the lower-cut high-heeled d'Orsay style by Vince, and they did not work at all for me. </p> <p>Diane, I'm not used to walking in this type of heel, but I think I can do it with practice. We'll see! I have heels this high, but thicker, and I have heels this pointy but a little shorter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-new-boots-pumps#post-1133065 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 20:06:53 +0000 Anonymous 1133065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both pumps and boots get a big thumbs up from me. As long as you're fine with the heel. They look fab. I like both pairs with what you're wearing too actually. They change the look of the outfit to more dressy or casual. That's a great sweater, definitely poncho-esque. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-new-boots-pumps#post-1133063 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 20:06:24 +0000 Angie 1133063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are the Vince&nbsp;d'Orsay pumps on my top picks list. They are so gorgeous - and you wear them beautifully. Stunning boots too. Perfect for Seattle. Killer all round - and that includes the outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-new-boots-pumps#post-1133059 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 20:04:42 +0000 Suz 1133059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, these are gorgeous! All of them!! First off, I <b>LOVE</b> your outfit - that sweater rocks! I want something like that. It's poncho like but reined in. Fantastic! And the fit on the jeans is spectacular. I know we have been commiserating about skinnies, but these actually look really good.&nbsp;</p> <p>The pumps are beautiful! Do they stay on your feet when you move? I have such a hard time keeping pumps on that I worry this style would be even worse. But for looks, they are gorgeous.&nbsp;</p> <p>As for the boots -- WOW. Those are perfect for you. Glad you found them.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-new-boots-pumps#post-1133051 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 19:59:02 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1133051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went shopping for some pumps. I had in mind that I wanted a d'Orsay style if I could find one that would work for me, so I went to Nordstrom to try on some Jeffrey Campbells with an ankle strap and some Vince without. The impetus is a holiday party with work, although I have perfectly wonderful pumps that I could wear already--so no panic or real need, which is nice.</p> <p>Browsing the very sparse sale racks on the way to find the pumps, I spied a moto boot that I had on my favorites list for months. The boots were way out of my price range, but I had kept them on my list as more of an aspirational style. Now here they were, marked down to a point where the price was still a stretch for me, but within the realm of possibility. They were a half size down from what I would normally wear. Of course I had to try them on--and they fit beautifully! Now I had a dilemma--to buy or not. I had already gotten a pair of Frye short moto-style boots, although they are quite different in feel. (shown here: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-take-fryes-with-that" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-with-that</a> )</p> <p>Then I remembered I had Christmas money from my parents, and I thought, What a perfect way to use that gift! I came home with the boots and pumps.</p> <p>Both shown with what I'm wearing today:<br />Olive brown cowl-neck cross-over sweater (this is kind of poncho-esque, no?) (Nally &amp; Millie), skinny ankle jeans (Lucky, Charlotte Rail), brass and silver earrings (Marjorie Baer), brass and silver bracelets (Lucky).<br />Dark, dark brown pull-on moto boots (Miu Miu)<br />Black d'Orsay pumps (Vince Claire)</p> <p>I'm wearing the pumps around the house to see if I can actually take the 3" heel. I think I can make them work; they are for occasions, not everyday or work wear. </p> <p>Thanks for looking! I always appreciate your thoughts and comments.</p>
