Both are perfect for you, in my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024802 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 05:36:00 +0000 Marley 1024802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them both.&nbsp; The wide ankle strap is very current - I don't mind mixing metals - I think I'd get both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024791 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 04:39:42 +0000 Jeanie 1024791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just love the black ones. &nbsp;I am noticing a trend in gold shoe hardware this season so I think the look is current. &nbsp;I think Angie and Caro have good solutions. &nbsp;Try them both and see which feel best on your feet and with your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024787 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 04:15:42 +0000 Anonymous 1024787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both. If the ankle strap fits comfortably in #2, I can see them working well for you. I've found that I prefer the back zipper for easy on/off to messing with a buckle, but you lose adjustability. To my eye, the wide strap is more fashion forward than a narrow one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024735 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 01:59:40 +0000 Caro in Oz 1024735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think either could work, but I do mix metals. I'd go for the comfiest ones </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024732 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 01:53:49 +0000 Debra 1024732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry....I'm no help at all, I love them both I do have a pair similar to the black and they were absolute workhorses last summer, but the silver are gorgeous </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024506 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 20:41:26 +0000 Mo 1024506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also very much a silver girl, and the #1 sandals appeal right away. &nbsp;BUT, if they are the brand I tried earlier this year&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B9ORSS8/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1">http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ.....#038;psc=1</a>&nbsp;stay away! &nbsp;They were sized badly and cheap looking. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024501 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 20:35:52 +0000 Beth Ann 1024501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great choices, Deborah.&nbsp; I like #1 for bookending your hair and lengthening your leg line with Summer looks.&nbsp; #2 has great drama.&nbsp; Unless you wear silver on your toes, I think mixing metals is fine.&nbsp; If someone is far enough away to visually take in both, say, a necklace, and shoe hardware, they're not going to distinguish a small gold clasp very distinctly.&nbsp; Someone close up won't see both metals in the same viewpoint.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024423 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 18:59:29 +0000 Raisin 1024423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm 100% a silver girl too but I live the simplicity of the second pair and is totally wear those with the gold hardware, no problem. In fact, I think I want a pair! What are #2? I feel like I recognize these ... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024401 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 18:32:06 +0000 CocoLion 1024401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them both, they both look very current. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024357 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 17:25:35 +0000 cobaltblue 1024357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for #1. I can just see those sandals with many of your wardrobe pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024348 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 17:14:46 +0000 Isabel 1024348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just love 1 and think that it is a perfect neutral for Summer. &nbsp;I also like it because your hair is blonde. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024345 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 17:10:34 +0000 Adelfa 1024345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the nude qualities of #1 would work super well. What's your tolerance for mixing metals? On a scale of 1-10 I'm a 2, max. I'm a silver girl in the summer and could. not. do. the gold buckle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024257 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 14:55:56 +0000 Nicole D 1024257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #1 and I think the metal hardware looks very current. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024256 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 14:54:20 +0000 Angie 1024256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote get both and mess around in your closet with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024252 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 14:51:11 +0000 carolbee 1024252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both too. I agree with what others have said about the silver bookending you hair. Also they will serve to "lighten up" outfits that are mostly dark, eg black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024210 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 13:12:15 +0000 Jjsloane 1024210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both (I can ignore the gold hardware),&nbsp;but it would totally depend on how they feel on. I love the metallic of #1, but that extra strap in the middle could be good for keeping sandal on or just horrible for constraining foot for walking.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024208 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 13:04:04 +0000 Karie 1024208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both but #1 is my favorite. Like the others, I think you might end up passing over #2 because of the gold, and the strap is thick, so it would have to fit perfectly to be comfortable, and it might end up shortening your leg line. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024202 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 12:44:53 +0000 Suz 1024202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #1 looks promising. I agree with the others that you could use it to bookend and it would also read as a near nude on your skin. So it would be flattering.&nbsp;</p> <p>#2 seems "okay" but I worry about the gold hardwear and also that ankle strap would have to be "just so" not to bite you or to hit you at the wrong place, and the way it fastens it would not be terribly adjustable. So it would be better if you could try it on in person to see.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024199 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 12:39:04 +0000 Mona 1024199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 would go well with bookending your hair too. I don't think metal is dated at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024173 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 12:09:48 +0000 Janet 1024173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both. The metallic especially appeals to me. I must admit that I've gotten a lot more use out of my non-black sandals than I expected, even though I also love black. I'm a silver girl too, so the hardware on #2 would be a deterrent to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024167 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 12:03:00 +0000 Jaime 1024167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm. Tough choice. They both work with your style but the silver perhaps moreso! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024158 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 11:25:07 +0000 ManidipaM 1024158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I prefer #1 for you, though no idea how current those are. The gold I fear may get passed over because not your preference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024146 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 10:24:23 +0000 Lantana 1024146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not sure about the gold for you Deborah but I like the weight of the black and think they'd go well with your drapey black tops.The silver I think would be more all rounders.<br />I wait to hear from others as to the currency of metallic plates. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024145 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 09:49:49 +0000 Lyn D. 1024145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both Deborah!<br />#2 for its simplicity,<br />#1 for the way it would serve as a neutral with outfits you want to take centre stage.<br />I don't think the gold on #2 would be out of place with your silver.<br />The wider ankle strap MIGHT be leg shortening with dresses, but I think would look stellar with flowy pants/ culottes etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandals-opinions-please#post-1024144 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 09:34:43 +0000 Deborah 1024144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Fabbers,</p> <p>I am looking for a wedge heel sandal for summer. Ideally I am looking for something with a bit off edge and black. </p> <p>While searching I also found #1 which I thought could be good as a bit of a neutral? Working well with my black? </p> <p>#2 has the simplicity I am looking for but the hardware is gold....do you thi k that matters? I am very much a silver girl.</p> <p>Do you see either, or both, working for my style? And is #1 with the metallic plates still a current look?</p> <p>Thanks<br /> xxxDeborah </p>
