It was really such fun to find the sandals I'd been searching for...it felt like they had been sitting there patiently just waiting for me to show up. </p> <p>IK, that is so kind of you...but these are size 8. I normally wear 8 1/2 but they seem to run small. </p> <p>Claire, your wisdom about the usefulness of seersucker was a real help. You are definitely allowed to change your mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-610081 Wed, 02 May 2012 10:35:23 +0000 citygirldc 610081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sheer gorgeousness on those sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-610068 Wed, 02 May 2012 08:30:19 +0000 rute 610068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous sandals!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-610063 Wed, 02 May 2012 07:47:53 +0000 Astrid 610063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous sandals!

Lovely sandals and at a very good price too. But most importantly, the dream that came true. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609823 Wed, 02 May 2012 01:28:10 +0000 Anonymous 609823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@IK, how nice of you!</p> <p>Great sandals at a great price Nancylee! I believe I'm one who told you to skip the seersucker blazer but it looks great like this, and you could totally make it work for your style (and you can have more than one persona, after all). I'm wearing a charcoal and white seersucker shirt for the first time today, and it functioned like a non-denim neutral for me, neither white nor chambray it reads as *grey* but with a more definite summer vibe. That jacket may end up being very versatile for you. Am I allowed to change my mind? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609799 Wed, 02 May 2012 01:21:17 +0000 ironkurtin 609799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nancylee, I believe I own your inspiration sandals in brown and don't wear them. What size are you? If you're a 9 I will send them to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609781 Wed, 02 May 2012 01:11:33 +0000 Jaime 609781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great find! They look great with your jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609757 Wed, 02 May 2012 00:55:53 +0000 nancylee 609757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Angie, patience DOES pay off. This is a good example of your shopping rules in action. :)</p> <p>k can shop, I like my sandals better, too!</p> <p>Suz, it definitely is helpful to keep an inspiration file...for just the reasons you cited.</p> <p>Christieanne and Jjsloane, thanks for the thumbs up on the blazer. I still haven't cut the tags off, but it's growing on me. Trying to figure out how much I'd use it before I commit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609661 Tue, 01 May 2012 23:45:08 +0000 Jjsloane 609661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great sandals and comfort is paramount. I like the seersucker (but I have one too so I'm not impartial) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609660 Tue, 01 May 2012 23:44:52 +0000 Suz 609660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great find, Nancy!

Hooray for waiting for the perfect thing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609600 Tue, 01 May 2012 22:39:09 +0000 christieanne 609600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last week I picked up the same pair in tan - the blue was so nice (if I didn't really have a lack of tan or nude I would have loved the blue). Those do make the jacket complete if you decide to keep it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/patience-pays-offmy-happy-sandals-find#post-609592 Tue, 01 May 2012 22:29:24 +0000 Tanya 609592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is quite incredible!

I found the photo in a magazine but never had any luck tracking the sandals down, so I had more or less given up...until today, when I stopped in at TJ Maxx and found these cute Tahari sandals originally $99 marked down to $39.99. They aren't exactly like my inspiration photo, but they're pretty close and super comfy too. Yay!</p> <p>#1 - my Tahari find<br /> #2 - my inspiration photo<br /> #3 - having fun with my new sandals (still debating on my seersucker blazer!) </p>
