Cosmo turned 6 (already!) and Callie turned 3 in April. Time flies!<br /> Angie, the other white sandals are sold out in my size but I ordered the black. I rarely wear black sandals, but I do wear them and the pair I have hurt my feet (an impulse buy when I was in Asbury Park, NJ - bad, bad, impulse buy). Fingers crossed that they’ll fit and be comfy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1947373 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 19:20:51 +0000 pil 1947373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Karie, I’m impressed with your sewing! I’m not ambitious enough to do anything more than shorten pants.

I wore the sandals out of the house tonight so they are definitely keepers. The leather on the left shoe stretched perfectly and is now comfortable on my foot. </p> <p>I loved reading all your comments about sewing! I am hoping to start making a fit &amp; flare dress next week. We’ll see how that goes.</p> <p>Angie, the sandals you just ordered look cute and comfy! Seems like we’re seeing more and more shoes in narrow widths. I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946915 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 22:46:45 +0000 kkards 1946915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i am soooo impressed with your "made by me" short! love them<br />and i think the sandals like great as well </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946913 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 22:42:02 +0000 Anonymous 1946913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sandals look just right to me. Props for sewing. I tried to learn to sew last year. I wanted to work in silks and brocades and all kinds of wonderful things-fabric magpie. Then i learned why most people that sew dont use them-too fussy:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946887 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 21:15:12 +0000 Anonymous 1946887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KARIE- cute sandals. While I love the look, I have never found a pair that comfortably feet my “ numerous surgery” plagued feet.....bummer. So more power to you.<br /> With regard to me- made fashions. Be proud! I too sew and over the years made everything from my own wedding dress, dresses for entire wedding parties and Irish dance competition (feis) costumes, etc, etc etc. I made a lifetime of clothes for myself and daughter ( and her dolls) and doggie fashions for furry friends. Sometimes it was for financials but often it was to enjoy testing my skills or creativity. I often sew, mend and tailor for many friends who don’t know which end of a needle to use.<br /> Remember that ready to wear and “fast fashion” is a recent phenomenon and that most everyone use to make their own clothing. It saddens me and many of my friends that it is currently cheaper to buy ready to wear than fabric. So we choose our sewing projects more carefully now.<br /> Just saying. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946874 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 20:42:50 +0000 Chris987 1946874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have these sandals too, and went for the N width (which I almost never do) and the lower of the two sizes I generally wear in shoes. I think Suz is exactly right that often we need a smaller size in sandals than other types of shoes.&nbsp; They look just right on your feet too, but make sure they feel good too. Those shorts look great! No need to be bashful about your me-mades - there are quite a few others on this forum who make their own clothes and post about them. Speaking for myself as a former maker of my own clothes (many years ago) I love to see other people's&nbsp; creations.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946871 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 20:31:18 +0000 Angie 1946871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woohooo. I’m high fiving your narrow feet, <b>Karie</b>. It is SOOOO hard to find sandals to fit my shape of feet. </p> <p>I just got these in 6.5N too. See Find. I do sooo much walking in 100 degree heat these days - these have saved my feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946869 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 20:18:58 +0000 Laura1975 1946869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fit looks spot on in those sandals.</p> <p>Please post your me-mades - I need the inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946858 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 19:42:59 +0000 Anonymous 1946858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look cute and the sandals look great. You don't have toes or heels hanging over the edge, so not too small looking. They Look like Angie's white sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946855 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 19:36:21 +0000 karen13 1946855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those sandals look like a perfect fit. Just the right amount of room in front of toes and behind heel.And they go beautifully with your fab outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946849 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:54:18 +0000 Becky 1946849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote to keep the sandals. Your sewing skills are impressive; the shorts are great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946848 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:50:16 +0000 Karie 1946848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks rachylou, Angie, and Suz! Yes, Angie, these are the narrow size. It’s so rare to see sandals in a narrow size that I figured I’d better try them or I knew I’d regret it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946847 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:48:08 +0000 Suz 1946847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look adorable! That's fantastic outfit for your day and it looks amazing with the sandals.&nbsp;</p> <p>The fit looks great to me. Sometimes with a sandal you do need a smaller size, I've found.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946845 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:40:48 +0000 Angie 1946845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GREAT to see you, <b>Karie</b>! </p> <p>Fun caretaker outfit for a hot day - and aren’t you creative. </p> <p>Are the sandals a narrow size like mine? I take them in a US 6.5N. Fit does not look too small. Looks good. Comfy? </p> <p>I LOVE THESE SANDALS. Duplicated. My best wildcard of the year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946844 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:37:35 +0000 rachylou 1946844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sandals look good to me... and cute shorts! I’m impressed with your sewing skills. Pants are daunting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/saying-hey-and-a-question-about-shoe-size#post-1946842 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:34:17 +0000 Karie 1946842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey there! I’ve been around on the forum but haven’t posted in a while. I’ve been sewing and not clothes shopping. I’m a bit bashful about posting my me-mades, but I wanted to ask about the sandals so I figured what the heck, I’ll include what I’m wearing today.</p> <p>My question is about the sandals. These were an end of season purchase as I need a casual sandal to wear to an upcoming bridal shower. Does the fit look too small? I’ve been wearing them around the house and they seem good so far. These are 8.5, the 9’s were too loose in the heel strap. The leather is slightly snug across my left foot (my surgery foot from a few years back) but they seem to have stretched a bit and are fine right now (this is my second day of house wearing). </p> <p>I included a pic of WIWearing today. It’s a casual day of taking care of my MIL after her knee replacement surgery. Me-made batik shorts (I saw a similar pair in a store and decided to make them) and top from J Crew Factory, naturally curly hair and no makeup! </p>
