Glad you were able to build up your footwear wardrobe. Your feet work so hard for you so they deserve it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494567 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 21:37:51 +0000 CocoLion 494567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am impressed with your shoe collection, all in one month no less! Love the Cole-Haan brogues. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494537 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 20:39:14 +0000 qfbrenda 494537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great choices! I understand about shoe buying. I've invested a lot in shoes this year as well. I remember posting my shoes a year ago and most people here said, "Get rid of all but that one pair... replace the rest." Eek! But ok.... that's what I did. :P</p> <p>And here's to Born shoes! Love them!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494530 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 20:30:32 +0000 Mochi 494530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Plus, haven't been into heels in a while (these are more comfortable than others I've worn). It is NICE to suddenly be 3+ inches taller and that much leaner-looking!</p> <p>Thanks, AG! In the macro wardrobe picture, shoes are the last thing I would have thought I'd be putting my money into..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494525 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 20:28:34 +0000 Janet 494525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This really is a nice variety! Congrats on the shoe collection. Years ago I went through a phase in which I wore the same shoes nearly every day, and all my shoes were black. Wow, what a far cry from today! Many days I start choosing my outfit by deciding which pair of shoes I want to wear, </p> <p>Enjoy your fab new collection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494524 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 20:26:31 +0000 catgirl 494524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Drool. It's a worthwhile investment - you have to have SOMETHING on your feet every day, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494522 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 20:23:04 +0000 Mochi 494522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is slowly on the mend, Angie. I'm getting good care at home and luckily there's not as much on my plate as with everyone else, so I can take it easy. Thank you for asking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494416 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 16:21:02 +0000 Angie 494416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A KILLER collection for those fabulous feet!</p> <p>How is your shoulder, Mochi? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494324 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 07:41:40 +0000 soobee 494324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous collection, congratulations! They all look like great investments, you've chosen wisely. I love those oxfords, I don't know that I'd get much use out of them in my climate but I shall live vicariously through my fellow YLFers. Isn't it awesome to go to the closet and getting to *choose* which pair to wear for the day?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-494321 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 07:14:03 +0000 goldenpig 494321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great shoe collection! I love your red flats! They will go with everything--red is a great neutral. I am the same way--my shoe and boot collection exploded! But I've been pretty happy with pretty much everything I've added. And shoes can last pretty much forever...I have some black knee high boots I've had for over 15 years and I'm still wearing them.<br /> Great job! But I'm warning you, this is only the beginning, Mochi... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-493967 Fri, 23 Dec 2011 18:04:29 +0000 Mochi 493967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, I haven't worn the Dublins out yet, but they don't give me the usual problems I've had with flats (pain in the toebox area), so I'm hoping they're going to be fine. The Carterets fit amazingly (even a 3" heel is high for me, usually). </p> <p>Now I have to waterproof all of these so I can actually wear them.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-493922 Fri, 23 Dec 2011 17:02:46 +0000 Amy 493922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great selection, Mochi! I used to only have two pairs of shoes at a time: comfortable walking shoes and one pair of black heels. Like you, I decided it was time to create a fun assortment and am so glad I did...although I didn't go about it as thoughtfully as you did. </p> <p>Happy holidays! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-493915 Fri, 23 Dec 2011 16:54:42 +0000 Transcona Shannon 493915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mochi - I think you've spent your money extremely well! These are all fabulous shoes and give you so many options for outfits. Well done! </p> <p>I really love the Born Dublin red patent flats - how are they comfort wise across the top of the foot? I've had that problem in trying on flats but really want to get a pair or two for more casual wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-shoes-shoes-shoes#post-493900 Fri, 23 Dec 2011 16:34:02 +0000 Mochi 493900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Never did I think I would have succumbed to Imelda-itis, but I decided to take the advice that shoes are some of the most important investments in your look. And just in the past month or so, I've begun a really nice collection! It makes me so happy to look at my shoes (I came from a real shoe-poverty situation), and to know that I also have so many more opportunities to put together cool outfits. </p> <p>Shoes I've purchased:</p> <p>Born Carteret</p> <p><a href="http://www.6pm.com/product/7947134/color/305379" rel="nofollow">http://www.6pm.com/product/7947134/color/305379</a></p> <p>Born Dublin in red patent leather</p> <p><a href="http://www.6pm.com/product/7818588/color/3828" rel="nofollow">http://www.6pm.com/product/7818588/color/3828</a></p> <p>the Giveable (Angie's cool flat :)</p> <p>the Cole Haan Madelyn oxfords (wore a few days ago, squeee)</p> <p><a href="http://www.theshoemart.com/cole_haan-womens_madelyn_oxford_oxblood_brush_off/pv-col-d35105_col_f_madelyn_oxford.html?utm_medium=shoppingengine&#038;utm_source=googlebase&#038;cvsfa=3279&#038;cvsfe=2&#038;cvsfhu=434f4c5f665f443335313035" rel="nofollow">http://www.theshoemart.com/col.....3335313035</a></p> <p>I have the Fish Bow pumps on order, and am stalking this shoe by Megumi Ochi:</p> <p><a href="http://shopcoclico.com/detail.htm?designer=megumi%20ochi&#038;item=5042%20black&#038;product=mid%20heel%20sandals&#038;skip=10&#038;pagetype=viewall" rel="nofollow">http://shopcoclico.com/detail......pe=viewall</a></p> <p>(it's final sale so can't try on and return--I will try it on in-store in New York City when we go down next week!)</p> <p>Also in the past few months I got two pairs of tall boots and some Mia short boots, and some Fluevogs. </p> <p>Apart from the Giveable and Fluevogs, everything was pretty well discounted. I definitely feel like my money was well-spent. </p> <p>This is the ONLY place online or elsewhere would I be bragging this. I feel kind of over-the-top, but I wanted to catch up quickly from having almost no shoes to having a nice assortment...which I feel like I do now! There may be a few more pairs I need/want, plus a warmer weather collection, but I'm really happy now and starting to take them out for a spin!</p> <p>I actually have a wardrobe now, and can piece together many casual but chic outfits. I'm happy to get dressed in the morning. </p> <p>Thanks for much of this to YLF!</p> <p>Happy happy holidays and a wonderful 2012 to everyone here and their families. </p> <p>xoxoxox </p>
