I adore your musings, and your high tops adventure was fabulous. Thank YOU.</p> <p>Warm up after your fall into the water. Hot cocoa and cake sounds like a great idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439234 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:56:51 +0000 AJ 439234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Much better.

Gives them a cool retro Euro vibe of hipness instead of 12-year-old who love rap music and basketball. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439205 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:37:34 +0000 sarah 439205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love 'em. didn't think I would, but I DO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439203 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:36:43 +0000 Isis 439203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these! </p> <p>(But I'm very prejudiced against white shoes. I think they are bringing up memories of high top aerobics shoes in the 80's worn with shiny tights and pastel leg warmers.....) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439197 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:29:23 +0000 modgrl 439197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For me it is not about the color.

It's not easy. But still fun :)</p> <p>Isabel, that is great advice </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439186 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:19:30 +0000 Isabel 439186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I voted against the white but I LOVE the black ! I hope that you feel better really soon. ( Next time you want to look *rosy*, please go with the blush.....much healthier. ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439173 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:05:58 +0000 Scarlet 439173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, Queen Mum, you and the mister are together on that one. I think the white have something, but they are a bit harder to wear well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439172 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:05:00 +0000 Scarlet 439172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOOAAAHHHHH </p> <p>*blown out of the water, out to sea* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439170 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:04:18 +0000 Queen Mum 439170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure why, but I preferred the white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439169 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:03:30 +0000 Angie 439169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now THAT works to my eye. Hip, fresh and urban. </p> <p>Sooooooo here you go: </p> <p> KILLER </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/now-lets-try-black#post-439168 Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:01:42 +0000 Scarlet 439168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okey-dokey, seems like the consensus was the shoes are not as bad as you feared, but black might be better than white (<a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-still-really-not-like-these">previous thread</a>). This was also my gut instinct, and the more I thought about it, the super-bright white is just too difficult to wear. I wear lots of white, but always more in the realm of cream. I will leave the bright white to the athletes and the rappers and the cool working mom I saw wearing these shoes in the first place.</p> <p>I am still ill and un-styled. It looks like I am wearing blush, but actually I fear it is fever. (Don't worry though, I am getting better, especially with all your kind wishes from the other thread.)</p> <p>So the shoes are not to present myself to the world, but for casual things like,</p> <p>a.) running out to the grocery store while home sick<br /> b.) playing with friend's kids outside<br /> c.) taking the dog out<br /> d.) going to the zoo and things like that.</p> <p>Whaddyathink?<br /> (Tags are still attached in the photo, in case you are wondering what that thing is.) </p>
