I do think #3 would be appropriate - not interesting, or fashionable&nbsp;or anything, but appropriate! &nbsp;<br />*sigh* I don't know! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1424447 Wed, 14 Jan 2015 17:42:36 +0000 rachylou 1424447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mm. That's pretty damaged. But I think I might prefer a damaged professional shoe to the worn in casual one (#3). Things happen and that's ok, but you should show you know what things are about. Like, there's nothing worse than when someone shows up at the bakery for a job interviewing wearing a suit and tie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1424318 Wed, 14 Jan 2015 14:19:32 +0000 anne 1424318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn I don't know how much walking will be required but I think I should be prepared to be able to be walk a few blocks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1424233 Wed, 14 Jan 2015 08:19:42 +0000 anne 1424233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shoe damage. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1424203 Wed, 14 Jan 2015 05:14:32 +0000 Lyn D. 1424203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Anne,<br />we have had quite a bit of rain recently, so would recommend one closed and &nbsp;one sandal as Deborah suggested.<br />Will you be doing much walking?<br />Blue and grey sounds perfect to me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1424189 Wed, 14 Jan 2015 04:54:11 +0000 Gigi 1424189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My cobbler's assistant told me that he uses furniture polish to remove scuffs on patent leather, in case that helps. I think he uses a brand called Behold--not sure if you have it in Aussie Land.</p> <p>I like the silver sandals, but I would take the first pair also just in case the sandals become too painful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1424158 Wed, 14 Jan 2015 03:36:03 +0000 Hilary 1424158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think 1 and 4.</p> <p>This could help with the patent leather freshening up.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.howtodothings.com/fashion-personal-care/how-to-return-the-shine-to-patent-leather">http://www.howtodothings.com/f.....nt-leather</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1424130 Wed, 14 Jan 2015 03:07:42 +0000 anne 1424130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think the photo is showing the extent of the problem.

May work? I have not tried yet--would need to re-look up on internet--but I love patent and yet a little scuff can do it in and has led me to toss some shoes that now I think I could have saved. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1423750 Tue, 13 Jan 2015 18:55:13 +0000 rachylou 1423750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am the same as Laura, with #1 as my top pick. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1423677 Tue, 13 Jan 2015 16:22:39 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1423677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I think corporate I think not sandals, so 1, 3 and 4 all look ok to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1423577 Tue, 13 Jan 2015 12:05:25 +0000 anne 1423577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The most comfortable (and least stylish) would be number 3. Number one is my favourite but the patent has scuffed so it is a bit unstylish. &nbsp;The silver sandals were what I was planning to wear - bearable with bandaids.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am sure you will look smashing and that I WILL recognize you! &nbsp;I am probably just going to wear my work clothes for our dinner - so blue and grey will be the order of the day (night)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1423559 Tue, 13 Jan 2015 10:45:34 +0000 Deborah 1423559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Depends what you are wearing. &nbsp;I would take two pairs. &nbsp;A closed in pair and a sandal. &nbsp;Our weather is all over the place at the moment. &nbsp;Do you run hot or cold? &nbsp;Keep that in mind. &nbsp;Melbourne I guess is like most cities. &nbsp;Some people are exceptionally well dressed and others are not &nbsp;What do you think you would be most comfortable in??</p> <p>I need to start thinking about a dinner outfit if Im going to be meeting up with you, Lyn and Kiran.... just in case you don't recognise me... I will&nbsp;be the one wearing black lol...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-melbourne-need-your-help#post-1423552 Tue, 13 Jan 2015 10:31:58 +0000 anne 1423552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going to Melbourne for 3 days next week for the induction for my new job. Corporate dress though not necessarily suits. Temps forecast to range between 21 to 33.<br /> I have run out of time to buy and break in new shoes.<br /> Would love your input as to which one/es to choose.<br /> 1 comfy but scuffed and a little undone<br /> 2 still wearing in<br /> 3 old worn in and low heeled<br /> 4 heels too high for comfort. Interview shoes!<br /> 5 Also too high to walk much in</p> <p>I have no experience with summer rain. None forecast for next week but it is raining this week. </p>
