I feel it's important that you understand this concept. Refined footwear does not boil down to a pair of dainty white stilettos. In fact, I have noticed that your own taste in shoes is refining - just to confuse you even more :). I hope that makes sense, Una. Give me a shout if you think I'm making about as much sense as donkeys that fly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear/page/2#post-865493 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:04:16 +0000 catgirl 865493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More boots. :)</p> <p>Refined footwear has little place in my wardrobe weather-wise and style-wise. But I am admiring them on everyone else. I have three months before sandals are even possible! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear/page/2#post-865489 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:02:39 +0000 Transcona Shannon 865489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just bought a pair of grey flat oxfords with a lime green sole, and a pair of pointy toed, kitten heel black patent pumps (here's my thread I just posted about them <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-shoes-x-2" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-shoes-x-2</a>). I wouldn't mind either a pair of pointy toed animal print flats or a pair of peep toe booties to round out the spring footwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-865479 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 19:55:17 +0000 RoseandJoan 865479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm looking for a sandal with a low block heel such as these from clarks<br /> <a href="http://www.clarks.co.uk/p/20354518" rel="nofollow">http://www.clarks.co.uk/p/20354518</a><br /> and would like to find a more affordable version of these Tods slipper loafers (the jade and white is lovely too)<br /> <a href="http://www.mytheresa.com/en-gb/striped-slipper-style-loafers.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.mytheresa.com/en-gb.....afers.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-865281 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 14:50:24 +0000 Angie 865281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is Monday's blog post so I am not letting more out of the bag - but you are all on the right track :)</p> <p>Beautiful shoozies ladies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-865279 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 14:48:26 +0000 Suz 865279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Argh!! BJ. LOVE those ones you linked to, but I have a narrow heel, too. So they would not stay on me, either. I will not order - thank you for your review. But I am sad. </p> <p>I still have no idea about spring footwear -- spring still seems so far away here. Argh. </p> <p>I am hoping maybe I will buy something when in London. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-865276 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 14:38:40 +0000 Jjsloane 865276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well at least according to Angie's list there are a few trends I like (and a few I'll be sitting out):<br /> Peep toe booties - No for me<br /> Lucite - hmm. not sure<br /> POINTY TOE anything but sans the hectic platforms - been stocking up on these<br /> Ankle straps - not generally a fan<br /> Loafers - YES<br /> Flat Oxfords- Yes<br /> High Tops - probably not<br /> Pastels - maybe<br /> Severe stilettos - never<br /> flatforms - No thank you<br /> booties - Yes<br /> shooties Yes</p> <p>I must do a shoe inventory before I even think about adding to the collection. Oh wait I have a cart full of metallic shoes. I really want the J Crew ones (#1), but they almost fall into the territory of the thing I've been seeing so much of in magazines - the 60's style chunky low heeled pumps (and not mentioned here yet). These have me stumped as to how I would not look dowdy on my size 10 foot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-865261 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 14:02:24 +0000 kkards 865261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>bj- love the shoes you posted! wish they still had my size, i'd order them in a minute. shoes and bags are my weakness. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-865103 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 03:25:30 +0000 Tanya 865103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have just ordered he Sam Edelman Aster loafer in white:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/sam-edelman-aster-flat/3271224?origin=keywordsearch&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=Taupe+Rose+Snake&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/sa.....sultback=0</a></p> <p>I am looking for a flat oxford in muted silver/pewter, the right pointy toed flat (which mean very supportive and comfy) and low leopard wedges with ankle straps.

The only shoe I am really (REALLY REALLY!) wanting is a pair of bright optic white pointy pumps, but the shorter, very pointy toe, not the long softer type. 3" ideally. Haven't started looking yet, so I have my fingers crossed. Would also like to find some silver pointy skimmer oxfords (similar to the Tildon's Angie posted but I need real leather), but not super high priority there. And a white Chelsea type boot with a very refined flat heel along with some floral pointy flats are also on the list as a "would be nice to have". No sandals for me if I can help it, we just don't get enough weather for it and I'm on Team Closed Toe Shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-864847 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 00:53:05 +0000 kkards 864847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm drooling over these Marc Jacobs flats &amp; these rag &amp; bone brogues--but they are both out of my price range. </p> <p><a href="http://www.marcjacobs.com/product/detail/mj20482/mary-jane-spatzalatto-flat" rel="nofollow">http://www.marcjacobs.com/prod.....latto-flat</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/346708?cm_mmc=LinkshareUS-_-je6NUbpObpQ-_-Custom-_-LinkBuilder&#038;siteID=je6NUbpObpQ-UjmD133x1ZwroJYD_Lqvig" rel="nofollow">http://www.net-a-porter.com/pr.....oJYD_Lqvig</a></p> <p>These are more in my comfort zone &amp; are on my list. </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/kate-spade-new-york-gwen-flat/3435410?cm_ven=Linkshare&#038;cm_cat=partner&#038;cm_pla=10&#038;cm_ite=1&#038;siteId=fV7QgDWUWe0-6BJHwGKhvYUlbMqqL1pN8g" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ka.....bMqqL1pN8g</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vc-signature-hale-flat/3412820?origin=category&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vc.....sultback=0</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/shoes-oxfor/26727024.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.anthropologie.com/a.....727024.jsp</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-864766 Fri, 01 Mar 2013 23:11:36 +0000 Anonymous 864766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just got these and I can't wait to wear them.

They seem completely opposite in style, but I suppose the brogue detailing is similar on both of them, and that's probably why I'm attracted to them. The pump would fit into my work wardrobe but the boot suits my weekend going to kids' baseball and football games lifestyle. Now that I've justified them both, I just need some funding for them... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-864650 Fri, 01 Mar 2013 21:28:47 +0000 hedgiehog 864650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just ordered a pair of mushroom coloured oxfords yesterday. Can't wait to get them in the mail. I was inspired by Ingunn's Redbook interpretation post when I saw how she paired oxfords with skirts.<br /> I think I prefer flats for casual wear, though. I would love to do booties but I'm a mere 5 feet 2 inches and they don't flatter my legs at all. I really like the peep toe flats that bj1111 posted. They're sort of a sandal/flat hybrid.<br /> So many choices out there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-864639 Fri, 01 Mar 2013 21:24:08 +0000 Janet 864639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have not been enamoured of much in the shoe departments lately either, Anna. </p> <p>I am set for boots and booties for quite a while, and I'm not even thinking about sandals yet, although I suspect a bunch will get purged when I do my seasonal rotation in April. For early spring, I'll be sticking with my booties and oxfords, and I'll break out some pointy-toe flats I'm glad I didn't purge, since pointed toes are returning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-864638 Fri, 01 Mar 2013 21:22:49 +0000 annagybe 864638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicole, I have more than one pair of LD Tuttle's, love her shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spring-footwear#post-864635 Fri, 01 Mar 2013 21:20:17 +0000 Nicole D 864635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perforated peep toe booties!
