Very helpful.&nbsp; </p> </p> <p>I am also AMAZED at how itchy garments pass quality control. It makes me think that I am hyper sensitive to wool.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reviews-of-recent-purchases-thistle-one-for-you#post-1559994 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 13:37:04 +0000 Joyce B 1559994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those loafers look great, I am glad they are keepers.<br /> Too bad about the itchy top, you were right in returning it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reviews-of-recent-purchases-thistle-one-for-you#post-1559990 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 13:25:50 +0000 Sveta 1559990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the new shoes! I wish those metallic loafers come in my size, they are so beautiful.<br />Too bad about the tops but I am sure you will find better options as the season unfolds. And like you I am baffled how the itch factor is passing the quality control. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reviews-of-recent-purchases-thistle-one-for-you#post-1559983 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 12:51:22 +0000 Murph11 1559983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, metallic Tassel loafer, you must be mine! May be my perfect non-black fall/winter shoe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/reviews-of-recent-purchases-thistle-one-for-you#post-1559961 Sat, 19 Sep 2015 12:13:05 +0000 viva 1559961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all,</p> <p>Just catching up with a couple of quick reviews: Two losers and two winners.</p> <p>1: JCrew olive silk zip top: As some of you suspected, this was a really warm color, a very brown/gold olive as opposed to a green olive. Did not work for me at all -- back it went.</p> <p>2: COS grey wool asymmetrical gather top: This had potential except for two things. First, it was HUGE. Would definitely need to size down, and even then, it would be oversized. But -- it is ITCHY. Like, really itchy. I cannot believe they product tested this with real women. No one suggested a lining or a softer grade of wool? It's crazy to me.</p> <p>3. Louise et Cie black patterned leather Finch oxfords (photo). (Thistle, I think you asked about these!) These are beautiful, comfortable, and staying. I'm very excited for fall to arrive so that I can begin wearing them. They are a slightly feminine oxford, with a more delicate shape and a slight block heel, but they are substantial enough to feel like a good base for a lot of walking. I wasn't quite sure how I felt about the material at first; it's like a sueded snakeskin, not a refined leather -- but the shoes fit well, are comfortable, and I think will be very versatile, so I am keeping them. Nordstrom does not carry this version of the shoe. I could only find it on the Vince Camuto site. TTS.</p> <p>4. Louise et Cie metallic Joey Tassel loafer: I tried these on at Nordstrom and they were incredibly comfortable and very cute. A muted metallic -- more bronze than full-on silver, and almost a slight matte to the finish. Quite luxe, actually. If I needed a flat for fall, I would have bought these too. They are really beautiful. TTS.</p> <p>I hope these reviews are helpful!</p> <p>Vivian </p>
