Here is a picture of me in the jeans and shoes as requested by @Indigoprint </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311790 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 13:17:26 +0000 AndiB 2311790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love love sling backs and have a few pairs, I find them especially elegant but also versatile. Can wear with dresses and skirts, plus jeans, specially cropped or ankle, and any trouser. I have the Franco Sartos mentioned, in cream, plus I have what I think Tanya posted, a sueded Vaneli in blue, and a tan and black cap toe vaneli that are just the perfect classic. And another Franco Sarto in a dark pink. The last I got at Rack and kick myself on the regular for not picking up the black that was there too. I have a hard time like Janet with loafers (I have returned literally 7 pairs in the last two weeks, oh how I want a pair of lug sole loafers!). Can’t wait for the round up!!! I’ll be looking for low block heel or nearly flat with a square or squared toe. The first Sarto’s (Janet mentioned and I have in the cream) are pretty pointy toed and I guess I’m done with that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311775 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 12:11:53 +0000 Anonymous 2311775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Big yay from me! My heels are too skinny to wear regular pumps or flats, so will definitely be looking at slingbacks.</p> <p>In addition....designers can Make Transitional Shoes That Are Narrow In The Heel Because It Is The Normal Foot Shape! Rant over </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311750 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 10:02:32 +0000 anchie 2311750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great shoes and jeans. I have tried this brand before since I like the esthetic, but their cuts don’t work for me unfortunately. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311748 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 09:57:49 +0000 jussie 2311748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look of sling backs, and am happy they are having a moment!<br /> I had a great turquoise pair for a while :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311721 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 06:57:32 +0000 Zaeobi 2311721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Slingbacks are an interesting fit - I find it's not just a matter of how slim the area behind my ankles is but ALSO how far my heel 'juts' out (IYKWIM)? to hold the strap above it (without slipping down).</p> <p>Since metallic footwear will be trending, maybe I'll find a gold or bronze closed toe pair with an elasticated (not buckle) strap? Much like yours - they look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311643 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 22:07:35 +0000 Tanya 2311643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love those slingbacks, very chic.&nbsp; &nbsp;The new jeans are great as well.</p> <p>I cannot wear all the slingbacks, as some do fall slip off my heels, but I can find plenty that work.&nbsp; &nbsp;I have several pairs (below) and don't need more, though I could really envision adding a new pair in silver. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311629 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 21:09:56 +0000 LJP 2311629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are great Janet ! I’d wear those in a heartbeat . Runs off to check Cdn availability . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311615 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 19:43:19 +0000 Janet 2311615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans and the shoes look great! </p> <p>Slingbacks *might* work for me, if the straps are right. Too many loafers and pumps just fall right off my narrow heels. They can also skew dressier and more dainty than I need — but I do like the Franco Sarto Racer I just saw online. The substantial heel makes them a bit more wearable IMHO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311614 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 19:32:38 +0000 Indigoprint 2311614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2 great items. Hope you post a WIW featuring them when you can. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311604 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 18:58:48 +0000 Jenni NZ 2311604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look elegant and give a lovely nod to past decades- hope Angie tells us which decade! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311596 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 18:29:58 +0000 Helena 2311596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have an event this summer and was thinking of silver slingbacks ... this pair is awesome and I can imagine extremely versatile! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311589 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 18:02:19 +0000 Angie 2311589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SUPER CUTE! And VERY on trend :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311586 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 17:52:51 +0000 Irina 2311586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Timely. When I was packing away my summer shoes last fall, I edited out the last pair of sling backs I owned. It used to be my choice of summer footwear for the office use. Always love them doesn’t matter if they were trendy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311580 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 17:40:02 +0000 Jenava 2311580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>cute! I am also thinking about investing in a pair. Thanks for the rec. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311579 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 17:39:45 +0000 kkards 2311579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Suz I have issues with sling backs that stay on my heel. I’ve found that styles that have a wider strap work better, but even that’s not a guarantee&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311568 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 17:04:06 +0000 LJP 2311568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And the love the ones you bought . I spied a pair I like yesterday at Browns and have them under consideration . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311567 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 17:03:10 +0000 LJP 2311567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE slingbacks . The chicest shoe ever </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311562 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 16:51:59 +0000 Suz 2311562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those look great!&nbsp;</p> <p>I adore slingbacks but I have been unable to wear them...can never get them to stay on my heels. Ones with a higher vamp would probably work better for me. Since they are trending, I'll keep my eyes open.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311558 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 16:39:40 +0000 Carla 2311558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m interested in a low heeled slingback as well. &nbsp;I’d like it in a fun colour &nbsp;with a broad heel that will work on cobblestones and lawn. &nbsp;(No pointy heels, please.)</p> <p>Nice jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311557 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 16:38:54 +0000 April 2311557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a slingback!&nbsp; Happy for this trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/slingbacks-1#post-2311556 Fri, 03 Mar 2023 16:35:39 +0000 pirouette 2311556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I read that @Angie is going to do a piece on slingbacks as they are very popular this year. I just bought a pair of black flat slingbacks for the summer I haven’t worn them yet as it’s much too cold. I also bought the jeans in the picture and they are a great fit. The company is Closed and it’s a German brand. </p>
