I ordered a pair of sole society shoes on the past and was very disappointed. They seemed promising but were SO stiff and badly cut/sharp that I got blisters every time I wore them. Maybe it varies from shoe to shoe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit/page/2#post-1490952 Wed, 13 May 2015 03:36:28 +0000 DonnaF 1490952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also wanted to add that the Emma is extremely well balanced.&nbsp; There's a YouTube video out there (maybe Inge posted it awhile back?) that shows that you can tell if a heel is balanced by thwacking it lightly on the side.&nbsp; If it tips over or wobbles, it isn't balanced.&nbsp; These babies are stable!&nbsp; I was astounded when I tried the test since these heels are skinnier than any I've ever tried, much less worn.&nbsp; I am Ms. Clog, so I couldn't believe I didn't walk like a preteen trying her first heels.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit/page/2#post-1490880 Wed, 13 May 2015 01:38:56 +0000 Angie 1490880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOOOHOOO. Excellent news, Donna. It's amazing how well this ankle strap pump adjusts to all sorts of feet.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit/page/2#post-1490870 Wed, 13 May 2015 01:24:30 +0000 DonnaF 1490870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My Emmas just like Angie's came in today!&nbsp; FWIW, I ordered a 6.5W in the Munro Lacy that Angie featured last week, and a 7 in these.&nbsp; I was worried because I have major foot issues like hallux rigidus meaning my right foot doesn't flex much at all and even 2" heels can give me problems.&nbsp; I also have bunions and I think I'm getting a bunionette.&nbsp; My foot is wider than Angie's and, for example, the SE Petty and a few of the Munros that work for so many of you don't work for me.</p> <p>I am flabbergasted that these heels don't feel too high.&nbsp; The shoes cut above my bunions (mostly) and really don't feel too narrow the way most medium width shoes do on me.&nbsp; They show a bit of toe cleavage by my last two little toes, and my toes are darn short.&nbsp; Despite my chunky legs, I have tiny heels and a relatively small ankle over a low volume foot.&nbsp; The ankle buckles on these shoes work for me; they are often too big on other shoes I've tried.</p> <p>I will have to wear them around the house on a warmer afternoon before I make a 100% commitment.</p> <p>FWIW, the Munro Lacy in purple is fab, fab, fab and probably the most comfortable sandal I've tried and is very attractive on my flat feet.&nbsp; Due to the style which gives minimal support, I'm not sure how well they would work for super heavy duty touristy walking. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit/page/2#post-1490661 Tue, 12 May 2015 16:40:03 +0000 Angie 1490661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HAH, Laura. You have the job.&nbsp;</p> <p>Joyce and Mary, I hope the pumps work out for you too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit/page/2#post-1490418 Tue, 12 May 2015 02:43:30 +0000 Joyce B 1490418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thanks for the shoe recommendation and also thanks to Milehighstyle. Now it sounds like maybe the shoes will work, plus being suede they are stretchier than plain leather.<br /> We shall see... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit/page/2#post-1490241 Mon, 11 May 2015 17:54:03 +0000 MsMary 1490241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! I missed the original blog post, but since I am trying to lower my heel height while recovering from the broken ankle, these are just the thing! Just ordered them and hope they work out for me as well as they have for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit/page/2#post-1490163 Mon, 11 May 2015 14:11:59 +0000 Laura 1490163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect! If you ever need a foot stunt double Angie, I'm here for you :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1489209 Sat, 09 May 2015 00:53:28 +0000 Style Fan 1489209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful shoes.&nbsp; I love that colour.&nbsp; I could not wear them though.&nbsp; I need "sensible shoes". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1489066 Fri, 08 May 2015 18:54:41 +0000 Angie 1489066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup, Laura. My foot twin. 6.5 is a perfect fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1489064 Fri, 08 May 2015 18:47:18 +0000 Laura 1489064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, happy to hear of the successful road tests. What size, Angie? 6.5? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1489052 Fri, 08 May 2015 18:10:11 +0000 Angie 1489052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for chiming in about your own Sole Society experience, Linda. That's valuable information.&nbsp;</p> <p>Caro, I love Palaminos too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sveta and Jaime, you're sweethearts.&nbsp;</p> <p>Karie, you'll find the leather and suede options more comfy. And they work for my low volume feet, so they will probably work for yours.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm off for the day, but this is what I'm wearing. Chunky Summer knit semi tucked into high rise skinnies with cognac accents and new tomato rust clutch. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1489045 Fri, 08 May 2015 17:42:59 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 1489045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joyce, I have high volume feet too and I have the same dove grey Olyvia's that Angie has and they really work for me.&nbsp; I'm trying the fuchsia Emma's, hoping they are the same.&nbsp; I think the suede makes them more flexible than a stiffer leather would be.&nbsp; I hope I'm remembering correctly that the fuchsia was in suede. If not, free returns at Nordstrom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488793 Fri, 08 May 2015 04:09:52 +0000 Jaime 1488793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent - also hope to see them in action! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488712 Fri, 08 May 2015 02:07:12 +0000 Beth Ann 1488712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for sharing these -- they're gorgeous!&nbsp; An elegant, but practical shoe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488700 Fri, 08 May 2015 01:41:42 +0000 Sveta 1488700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray for new comfy and fab shoes!&nbsp;<br />They look lovely!<br />I am cheering here from the sidelines... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488696 Fri, 08 May 2015 01:37:10 +0000 Caro in Oz 1488696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha Angie, I love Palaminos </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488663 Fri, 08 May 2015 00:39:01 +0000 Karie 1488663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The brown Olyvia is SO pretty! I might just have to try them in black. I've been looking for a pair of dressy black sandals, but these might just be more versatile. Or maybe the red or pink to go with my new dresses. The ones that originally caught my eye are plaid, they would be fun to wear with jeans, although not as versatile as a solid color would be. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488655 Fri, 08 May 2015 00:21:26 +0000 Angie 1488655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HAH. Caro. Perhaps I'll become a chestnut blonde one day.</p> <p>Actually, Joyce. Daishelle has high volume feet, and the Annekes are workhorses for her.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488638 Thu, 07 May 2015 23:57:54 +0000 Caro in Oz 1488638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay - so glad you found them I can see a little of this colour working in your hair too Angie ????? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488637 Thu, 07 May 2015 23:57:50 +0000 Joyce B 1488637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad they worked for you, Angie. It looks like you found another work horse for your wardrobe.<br /> I would love the magenta pair but they are probably for medium or low volume feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488587 Thu, 07 May 2015 22:58:26 +0000 Angie 1488587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It <b>is </b>a great shade, Susie. Versatile.</p> <p>I ran around in them today and they were SO comfy. They passed the test to sport while working with a client tomorrow.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488409 Thu, 07 May 2015 18:09:38 +0000 Susie 1488409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty! So glad that they work for you. </p> <p>The cognac sandals I got for spring are getting a lot of wear. It really is a great shade to wear with brights. </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488405 Thu, 07 May 2015 18:02:47 +0000 Angie 1488405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope they work out, Suz and Linda. Fuchsia is your colour.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks, Carole and Thistle.&nbsp;</p> <p>Kkards and Eliza, I enjoyed my cognac booties SO much in Autumn and Winter, that I wanted a pair of Summer cognac shoes too. Gorgeous with white, shades of blue and sour brights.&nbsp;</p> <p>Merwoman, they look great with my denim flares. White-Out with cognac accents for the win.&nbsp;</p> <p>High five, Blonde Ambition.&nbsp;</p> <p>Diana, sturdier heels for you, young lady.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488375 Thu, 07 May 2015 17:33:16 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 1488375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me too, Suz!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488351 Thu, 07 May 2015 17:12:53 +0000 Suz 1488351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are so great! I'm glad they are working out.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm strongly considering the fuchsia ones. &nbsp;:)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488337 Thu, 07 May 2015 16:57:49 +0000 kkards 1488337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>glad&nbsp; they worked for you....i've actaully was thinking about adding a pair cognac shoes to my collection.&nbsp; i'll have to add these to my possibles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488327 Thu, 07 May 2015 16:42:47 +0000 Eliza 1488327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad they work! Love it when style, good price and comfort intersect. </p> <p>And I must add that, while unexpected, cognac is finding its happy way into my accessory collection. It works as a warm counterpoint to all of the cooler colors I wear best. And you can't get much farther from my face than my hands and feet.</p> <p>Thanks for sharing and enjoy the wearing, Angie. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488312 Thu, 07 May 2015 16:14:04 +0000 BlondeAmbition 1488312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't wait to see them styled. &nbsp;I told you they're comfy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sole-society-emmas-are-a-hit#post-1488298 Thu, 07 May 2015 15:55:59 +0000 Diana 1488298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yay!&nbsp; Can't wait to see them on.&nbsp; </p> <p>Thanks for responding to my question in the blog comments, by the way.&nbsp; Looks like the Olyvias won't work for me.&nbsp; I just have the world's worst balance, I think.&nbsp; </p>
