I hope the overalls work; I could see a lot of great styling options there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721873 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 03:47:56 +0000 tulle 1721873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I'm glad you found jeans that worked--and at a bargain! (Good old Gap--they've come to the rescue for me so many times.) That style has a certain cool-factor, I think--maybe a bit too much for the average Gap customer?&nbsp; $9.99!&nbsp; And those crazy, adorable shoes!&nbsp; I bought baby blue sneaks this Summer, too. (Converse, delicate ballet-slipper satin) and have been wearing them constantly.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721852 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 02:34:56 +0000 Suz 1721852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a fantastic deal, and yay for new jeans that fit. Also, the shoes!!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721847 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 02:20:00 +0000 Jaime 1721847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You had me from the words shoe selfie. And black overalls, which I will explain if I ever take a picture. Great that you took your stuff in to consignment - best just to start with today and look forward not back. (I have to convince myself of that all the time.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721825 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 01:38:34 +0000 Angie 1721825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad the Gap jeans worked out, and great score on the price.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721795 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 00:39:14 +0000 Anonymous 1721795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore the shoes. &nbsp;They are so incredibly cool. &nbsp;</p> <p>Glad you found jeans. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721771 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 00:07:22 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1721771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you found jeans you like. Even better, they are like some of the higher-end designs and at that super-low price. Your fuzzy blue tennies are the best! So fun. Don't they just make you smile when you look down at them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721764 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 23:38:55 +0000 shedev 1721764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really fun shoes.

I would have no problems hacking them shorter at that price. Fun blue sneakers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721756 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 23:05:26 +0000 DonnaF 1721756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Best bargain ever!&nbsp; Glad the labeled size didn't keep you from buying.&nbsp; And I agree with Diana:&nbsp; With 100% cotton you have to size up.&nbsp; At least that's what I found with Top Shop jeans.&nbsp; I want to pet your Vans.&nbsp; And I'm so drawn to overalls, but your vertical proportions (long legs) are so much better for the look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721753 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 23:02:10 +0000 Janet 1721753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that shoe picture. The jeans are a great score, and I can see that style working well for you as a stand-in for the Levis.&nbsp;</p> <p>I need to suck up my courage and try on all my jeans. I've been avoiding it, but hot weather will be subsiding here in the next few weeks, and as excited as I am about that, I'm also a little nervous to see the state of my denim collection and how it fits. Also worried some of it might be a little out-of-date, perhaps? I dunno. I'm stuck on skinnies and flares, but I do have the couple of pairs of newer cropped flares that I will wear despite my husband's meh response to them. Really kind of wondering about what updated denim I should look for, if any. This is when we need to be on the same coast so you could help me shop! And then we can go have drinks and dinner!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721748 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 22:51:36 +0000 Cococat 1721748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blue fuzzy vans! I love them! Great score on the jeans too. It's great finding bargains that seem to work...as if they were waiting for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721747 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 22:50:28 +0000 Diana 1721747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shoes are awesome! And great score on the jeans. I can see those working really well for you. And don't feel too bad about the sizing. I feel like the gap jeans this year are slimmer cut than before plus with their 100% cotton jeans you always have to go a size up. I did for the summer flares - my regular size technically fit but was muffin top city. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721742 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 22:43:59 +0000 Anonymous 1721742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jeans are a total score! Shoes are awesome and I like the idea of those black overalls. You of all people will be able to pull them off. I hope they work out for you.

I can see those working nicely for you in place of the Levis. Probably hem to just above the ankle bone? Love the fuzzy vans and I bet you'd get good wear out of the black overalls on drier days all the way through until next summer. But especially good job taking some of those sunk cost pieces to consignment. Will be nice to have some of those items <i>out </i>so you can focus forward &lt;3 </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721672 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 20:20:02 +0000 RobinF 1721672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am another fan of those fun shoes!

The fuzzy blue sneakers are a fabulous addition to your collection. Those jeans were a steal at $9.99 -- even if you get only a season or two out of them, they were a good purchase.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721638 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 18:49:14 +0000 viva 1721638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the shoes! And I liked those jeans. It was a tough decision to return them and I may decide to rebuy them. So fun that you found and liked them for 9.99! Awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721635 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 18:43:11 +0000 rachylou 1721635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg, love love the fuzzy baby blue shoes. They are the best ever. And wow, $9.99! Have to love that </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-selfie-other-things#post-1721634 Wed, 31 Aug 2016 18:35:37 +0000 annagybe 1721634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I got these fuzzy baby blue Vans during NAS. They weren't part of NAS, but a pop-in.<br /> On Monday after picking up my wallet I decided to do a bit of cheap shopping as I only had so much cash on me &amp; waiting for new cards. I really needed an extra pair of jeans.<br /> I checked out H&amp;M, saw some cool long dresses, but I wasn't sure I'd have an opportunity to wear them. I checked out their jeans, tried some clearance ones on, but they were pretty horrid.<br /> Went to Banana Republic. Zilch.<br /> Did check out a shoe store, but not enough cash.<br /> Went to The Gap. According to an email I thought they were having a big sale, but the store seemed to have only limited stuff on sale. Clearance was just the ugly dregs of summer.<br /> I found a section of jeans that were on sale, including a bunch of their 1969 line. I found several styles of 100% cotton jeans. Grabbed a bunch of sizes, everything from 30 to *gulp* 33.<br /> 30's were too tight, 31 borderline. 32 fit but the style did me zero favors.<br /> So then the last pair in the dressing room was a 33, dark wash with frayed hem. I was trying to figure out if they were the ones Angie rejected. They had the twisted seams &amp; all. The 33 fit on my pelvic bones, so the right amount of intentional slouch. Hem was just at my ankle bone. Twisted seam didn't bug me. Plus super bonus they were only $9.99. I wondered if they were a sales failure for Gap, as there were many dirt cheap ones on the rack. They remind me of the Chimala's I got at Ingefest, and the 6397's I got at a local boutique last year. Unfortunately both of those no longer fit. I wish the Gap ones were a harder raw denim, but for the price I can live with it. I might cut the hem shorter, haven't decided.<br /> Now to figure out what else I need.<br /> Yesterday I took three items to the consignment store. The infamous Levi Re/done jeans I got for a ridiculous price at Barneys, were too small &amp; missed return window. Then the Alexa Chung for AG denim dress, that I just had to have last year. That I was going to lose 10 lbs to fit into. ha! Also a striped ALC dress that I never really wore even when I fit into it. Shop owner was thrilled. Sunk cost is sunk cost. And if I did lose the weight I may not like them anymore.<br /> I also decided I need a pair of black slim overalls. I tried the large, and it was a smidge too small. I think I'll order the XL later. </p>
