As long as you are discerning! Your reasons make percent sense.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1908409 Sat, 14 Apr 2018 16:06:39 +0000 Janet 1908409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m going to be really picky about the usefulness of whatever mules I get. My life is way more casual than yours, Angie, and I also run far warmer and live in a warmer climate. I don’t mind shoes being less supportive, as my feet are not terribly fussy. I actually found those silver woven mules to feel very much like the slide-style flat sandals I am accustomed to wearing. I especially like the idea of a perforated or woven mule for summer — much more in tune with casual shorts and skirt outfits to keep the vibe easy, plus breezy on my feet so they don’t get sweaty. </p> <p>I’m in TX now, but I have a few more options on order that will be waiting for me to return home and try on. I’ll post updates when that happens! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1907522 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 22:04:13 +0000 Janet 1907522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I like the shape of those but none of the colors appeals to me — I already have black flats that have a similar vibe, so I was really thinking silver or rose gold for flat mules. The Dolce Vitas below have a very similar cut though, so I’d like to try those. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1907511 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 21:26:41 +0000 Angie 1907511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Janet</b>, I tried on your JC silver mules today - I did not find them stable or comfy - (I DO realize my feet are fussier than yours!) Could not walk in them easily. THESE mules are sooooo much better for walking. Stable, supportive and more comfy. I have them in a <i>white narrow.</i> I urge you to try them too - as an additional option.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1907509 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 21:19:37 +0000 MsMaven 1907509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh oh! Those sneakers call to me. They look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1907503 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 20:48:38 +0000 rachylou 1907503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes to all! The first pair, wedge heel miles are special awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1907475 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 19:19:28 +0000 Colette 1907475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your shoe choices. I'll be interested to see what you end up keeping. I'm looking for a couple pair of updated spring and summer shoes myself. I didn't add any shoes last year so I'm ready to buy. I usually never have a problem finding shoes that fit my feet but this year I'm having a tough time. I did pick up Angie's mules in black and to be honest, they fit perfectly and are comfy but I was going to send them back because my eye was not used to the style. We are having an unseasonably warm day so I'm wearing them today and love them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1907470 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 19:00:30 +0000 Susie 1907470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great choices! I saw those sneakers last weekend and was tempted to try them but don't really need more casual shoes. They look perfect for your style; I'd love to see them in an outfit photo.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like both of the mules with a slight preference for the black but only because I usually don't love very flat shoes. I do think the woven silver is more casual than the shiny one you showed. I was having trouble finding mules but got this one from Free People:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/free-people-laser-cut-mule-women/4870716?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&amp;fashioncolor=TAUPE">https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/f.....-personali</a></p> <p>They also had it in off white and a grayish/blue which were nice shades too.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>I love your shopping outfit....great colors for you. I think I have that same top but in the ivory/black stripe.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found/page/2#post-1907457 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 17:54:09 +0000 Elizabeth P 1907457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What great shoes, Janet!&nbsp; Wow, three in one visit.</p> <p>I'm hitting Nordstroms Ottawa in a week... can't wait.&nbsp; You've just added to my list of things to check out!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found#post-1907446 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 17:23:47 +0000 Angie 1907446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Janet</b>, glad to hear it. Keep us posted on the mules.

All options are definitely still on the table.</p> <p>These silver mules arrived today, and they are quite cute but a very different vibe — very bright shiny silver, and a bit stiffer and not cushiony comfortable. Wearable but a bit more tailored and not as casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found#post-1907250 Thu, 12 Apr 2018 02:05:34 +0000 Dianna 1907250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Black mules and sneakers are fantastic, and very you. Silver mules are ok, but the other two pairs are beyond fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found#post-1907168 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 22:22:01 +0000 Lynn 1907168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love those sneaks!! Also like black mules, bummer that they are not the that comfortable for walking. &nbsp;Plus/minus on the flat mules but that is just me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found#post-1906984 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 13:52:14 +0000 Janet 1906984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried the shoes on again late last night, which is probably not the best idea -- I'd been walking most of the day and my feet were tired. I'm a little concerned about the black mules because they seem a little clompy and not the easiest to walk in now that I'm home, but I'll try them again.&nbsp;</p> <p>I also placed an online order for some other mules, along with some slides, so I'll have some trying on and comparing to do when the other things arrive.&nbsp;</p> <p>I did end up picking up a pair of flat (but cushiony and very comfortable) black criss-cross slides with silver studs at Nordstrom Rack a couple of weeks ago -- they were on some ridiculous super red dot sale, so they were $13. For that, I figured they were a solid gamble. :-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found#post-1906919 Wed, 11 Apr 2018 11:10:45 +0000 Bijou 1906919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of these look fab on you, my favourites are the mules both the black and silver mules say summer to me.

Tried it in two sizes, and then had to go fetch another of the same size, because there was such a huge difference between the S and M I wondered if there was a lot of variance in the cut. Sure enough, I found another M that was not as big as the first. But then it was still roomy through the body, so I ended up having it tailored through the waist a bit. So finally I am wearing it! I like that it has a little interest in the back, and actually it doesn’t look bad turned so the buttons and V are in the front either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found#post-1906651 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 21:23:28 +0000 Sal 1906651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the sneakers and black mules!!

I think it was not really knowing what I'd wear it with that stopped me....and,sorry, I thought the flat mules were gold, not silver . &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoe-shopping-%e2%80%94-the-promising-options-i-found#post-1906634 Tue, 10 Apr 2018 20:30:44 +0000 Chris987 1906634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those shoes are ALL great. I'm not a good judge of mules - the heeled ones are to high for me and the others are too flat (like Suz's issue), but they look good on you and do seem to fit your style.&nbsp;The sneakers are&nbsp;really cool, thanks for sharing. They come in a bunch of different color combinations. I may be in a Nordstrom next week and will think about trying them on. Very different, in a good way! </p>
