I tend to freeze when I go back outdoors if I don't.</p> <p>Would you not wear these to the arena in the spring, summer and fall? I don't own any but they are lace up, seem to have traction and would be able to climb the stairs, etc. there.</p> <p>I think these are really cute. I love pewter, it is such a interesting metallic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-713002 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 23:57:43 +0000 Suz 713002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup. I completely understand this. For years, my Blundstones were my only "shoes." They are actually boots, of course. But I just wore jeans. Unless I was really dressed up in which case I had one pair of pumps. In retrospect it's no wonder I often felt like I had "nothing to wear." My only pair of sandals was black, too. </p> <p>Next spring you can buy another nice bridge shoe. And very slowly build your shoe wardrobe. You don't need many, because boots are the main thing. But a few options will make your spring/fall outfits work much better. </p> <p>Then you can diversify your sandal wardrobe. Get some neutrals and some colours going. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-712914 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 21:44:58 +0000 Glory 712914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So true. I have an astonishing number of sandals (I almost hate to confess that 10 pairs are black). This year I purchased Veronica Fryes and I have flat ankle boots. I do have 6 pairs of winter boots. It is the in between that is so tricky. I used to work in an office every day but now work from home. Office was easier - much more defined in terms of clothing and footwear. I may also add a pair of privos or another pair of skechers. So it is a bridge shoe. I spend quite a bit of time in hockey arenas but wear boots or runners there. I will try them on with some jeans later and see what I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-712911 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 21:39:13 +0000 Suz 712911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes. I think you can definitely wear these with jeans in spring and fall and even cool summer days. I wouldn't want to wear them with socks, myself. </p> <p>I understand your shoe dilemma better now. </p> <p>It is a perennial problem for those of us who live in a place where sandals and boots are the two main kinds of footwear. Shannon (winnipeg) and I (Kingston) have commiserated over this many a time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-712908 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 21:32:02 +0000 Glory 712908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz. I have one pair of black skechers and boots (3 pairs of black ones). In the summer/spring I wear sandals. I purged some outdated leather shoes. Do you think these might be ok with jeans ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-712758 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:42:11 +0000 Glory 712758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, good thought on the season. I am in northern Canada so it is only fall and spring. Winter will be boots only. Now I am wondering whether the light sole can be used for fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-712756 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:41:57 +0000 Suz 712756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad they are comfy! Metallic shoes are fun and they should work with denim - but what do you usually wear? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-712747 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:37:32 +0000 Jyoti 712747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like them! Will they work OK for your fall-winter clothes? (I hope your not in Australia or something or I would be rather embarassed. xD) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/out-of-my-comfort-zone-on-shoes-kr#post-712740 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 18:35:23 +0000 Glory 712740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello YLFers, still working on getting some casual MOTG shoes since I purged all closed toe shoes and returned all the others that I posted. Angie suggested a metallic in the dock shoes would be more versatile. I picked them up at lunch today - they are so comfortable and not black! I will confess I had the black on for awhile in the store. I have never worn metallic before! What do you think? They are a quilted silver/pewter colour. </p>
