I need to do some more thinking about this whole frump thing, as you say! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1068073 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 03:43:19 +0000 MuseumGal 1068073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If those are too much going on you could take it down a notch with these similar but more sedate ones:<br /><a href="http://www.ghbass.com/shop/mens/footwear/oxfords-bucs/pasadena-wingtip_2217_002.html?gclid=CLLE2pD-j7oCFUhk7AodunoAag" rel="nofollow">http://www.ghbass.com/shop/men.....=CLLE2pD-j</a></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1068030 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 02:58:52 +0000 Jaime 1068030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you need to correct your self perception of frump. These are truthfully not my favorite oxfords and I generally like Jeffrey Campbell. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067923 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 01:34:11 +0000 Anonymous 1067923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There seems to be an awful lot of busyness in one pair of shoes, but I trust your instincts to style them well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067917 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 01:30:06 +0000 Kristin L 1067917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I'd have to see how you'd style them before I can say one way or another.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067834 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:44:57 +0000 Caro in Oz 1067834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Janet; a little too much going on imo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067807 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:26:21 +0000 Mochi 1067807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In all seriousness, the pair you present here come off, to me, as a bit twee. They're okay, but I'd keep an eye out for something better.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067806 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:24:57 +0000 Mochi 1067806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, Una, if you remain unsold, you might end up deciding you need these:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.harveynichols.com/womens/categories-1/designer-shoes/flats/s465169-alison-iridescent-leather-brogues.html?colour=BLACK">http://www.harveynichols.com/w.....scent-leat</a></p> <p>Or these:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.harveynichols.com/womens/categories-1/designer-shoes/flats/s465177-zoe-iridescent-leather-brogues.html?colour=BLUE">http://www.harveynichols.com/w.....nt-leather</a></p> <p>Or, for that matter, these:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.harveynichols.com/womens/categories-1/designer-shoes/flats/s465168-alison-iridescent-leather-brogues.html?colour=SILVER">http://www.harveynichols.com/w.....scent-leat</a></p> <p>Or perhaps these, etc:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.harveynichols.com/womens/categories-1/designer-shoes/flats/s465175-maia-iridescent-leather-monk-shoes.html?colour=MULTICOLOURED">http://www.harveynichols.com/w.....ent-leathe</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067791 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:11:28 +0000 bj1111 1067791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>una, i think you need to spend some time unpacking this "frump" perception. &nbsp;i don't think it's going to be solved by a specific piece of clothing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067781 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 00:05:12 +0000 Janet 1067781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're very cool, but there is a lot going on in them -- pattern, studs, metal plate. I kinda wish they'd stuck with one or two of those details rather than all three. My taste seems to be shifting towards fewer design details per piece, so this is just MHO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067767 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 23:56:44 +0000 Peri 1067767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never seen you wear a frumpy outfit. I will post more pictures so you have a real point of reference!</p> <p>I think they are cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-oxfords#post-1067766 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 23:53:46 +0000 catgirl 1067766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've had a pair of black oxfords on my list for a while. Stumbled across these:</p> <p><a href="http://m.nordstrom.com/s/3561389/?origin=wishlist" rel="nofollow">http://m.nordstrom.com/s/3561389/?origin=wishlist</a></p> <p>They push all my buttons - androgynous, studded, black, funky. But is there just too much going on? It will they be helpful in elevating my otherwise frumpy feeling outfits? </p>
