I think you made a good decision. It’s nice to have different silhouettes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2013370 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 11:39:10 +0000 Synne 2013370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I returned the gold loafers. I loved them, but I can't justify having three so similar pairs of shoes.. The espadrilles are perfect for my beach capsule, and can also be worn in the same way as the loafers (casual spring and summer). If I'm being frank, my climate won't allow much wear of a shoe without socks, so the loafers may never be wardeobe workhorses. I will look for leather booties in this colour instead! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2013364 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 10:28:26 +0000 Anonymous 2013364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that returning one pair makes sense. &nbsp;Which ones have you decided to return? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012961 Sun, 17 Mar 2019 15:32:32 +0000 Vix 2012961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Synne --</p> <p>I have a pretty small shoe collection, esp for summer, and find light metallics and blush tones the most versatile. </p> <p>Looks like you're returning the espadrilles, but don't hesitate to buy another shoe in a similar shade...you don't want either of the others trashed on a beach vacation.</p> <p>Re the oxfords I was going to say the same thing as Sarah -- try a tulle or ribbon lace and see how you feel. I'm not an oxford person for myself but that color is sooo pretty I may have been tempted to.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012817 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 20:11:42 +0000 Jules 2012817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the oxfords! Of the other two I personally would only keep one pair, probably the metallic. The espadrilles look very beachy casual to me, and for that purpose I prefer slide sandals (rose gold birkenstocks actually). That’s just me though In my climate oxfords have proved pretty useless - the window for cuffed jeans/trousers with bare ankles is very short. I love them in theory.<br /> Edit, are the Oxfords really blush? They look like a lovely neutral nude-for-some colour to me (I know blush can also act as nude). They don’t really read as pink. Which is great IMO </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012791 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 18:02:09 +0000 Synne 2012791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your insights and words of wisdom. Much appreciated. After closer consideration I am returning one pair. I like having a small and manageable wardrobe, with clothes that get frequent wear. Although all the shoes are sooo pretty to my eye. But it may just be the colour itself I'm having a hang-up on... Thanks again and have a nice weekend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012658 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 01:54:03 +0000 delurked 2012658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another yes to Bijou. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012657 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 01:45:27 +0000 Anonymous 2012657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Bijou said. Be sure the espadrilles are comfortable and will hold up to a beach vacation. If you have doubts, return them. I have three pair of nude/ blush shoes...suede flats, perforated loafers and kitten patent heels. I used to have sandals too. All were different and got lots of wear. I could use blush booties and blush sneakers yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012646 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 00:49:42 +0000 Bijou 2012646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the gold shoes to the espadrilles, so if I were to return one, that would be it. However, if you are planning a beach holiday, then the espadrilles are the perfect shoe for that - as the other two pairs are more dressy.</p> <p>These look sufficiently different to me that I would not be concerned about keeping all of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012640 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 00:24:25 +0000 Staysfit 2012640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you need to return any? If you already own them I would keep them. They are all slightly different and I don’t think you can go wrong with any of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012637 Sat, 16 Mar 2019 00:14:54 +0000 Liz 2012637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them all and I have enough use for shoes that color that I'd keep them all -- they are a staple for me. Actually, I wouldn't keep them all. I wouldn't be able to keep the espadrilles on my feet, especially when they stretched out a bit, so I might return those. But three pair in that shade would be just fine, otherwise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012556 Fri, 15 Mar 2019 21:08:08 +0000 Angie 2012556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What <b>Rachy</b> said.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012554 Fri, 15 Mar 2019 20:57:11 +0000 Anonymous 2012554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll agree with Runcarla If your climate is mild enough for 3 pairs of transitional shoes and the blush is a nude to you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012553 Fri, 15 Mar 2019 20:26:33 +0000 rachylou 2012553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They do all seem to have different uses, so I’d keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012518 Fri, 15 Mar 2019 18:14:45 +0000 SarahD8 2012518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you change the laces in the oxfords, maybe use ribbon laces, to make them more feminine and thus get more use out of them?</p> <p>Could the rose gold loafers be used in the beach capsule and return the espadrilles? (They look like a somewhat similar silhouette, so maybe keep the more versatile pair.)</p> <p> It's totally legitimate if the answer to this is "No -- the espadrilles are exactly right for their purpose and I'd be losing something by trying to make the loafers do double duty." I have to admit I like what Runcarla and Mirjana have to say here... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012487 Fri, 15 Mar 2019 17:31:57 +0000 Mirjana 2012487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep them all if you can. They are for different time and for different outfit. All are very nice and why not? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012477 Fri, 15 Mar 2019 16:52:18 +0000 Carla 2012477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep them all, Synne, and make blush footwear a signiture of your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-pair-should-i-keep-shopping-hangover#post-2012460 Fri, 15 Mar 2019 16:10:45 +0000 Synne 2012460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since I got such great advice last time, here I am again with another shopping question.</p> <p>I've figured that blush is a great neutral for me, and bought a pair of blush oxfords last year. They do look good, and goes well with much of my wardrobe, but haven't gotten alot of wear. I think this is mainly because the style is a little too masculine for me.. and I find the stiff laces a bit too fuzzy.</p> <p>Recently I bought some great espadrillos for my summer beach capsule. Aaand I just happened to buy a pair of rose gold loafers too. </p> <p>Now I'm having a bit of a shopping hangover. Do I really need three almost identical pair of shoes? The oxfords are the pair I'd easiest part with, but they are non-returnable now. The other two pair can still be returned. The espadrillos haven't been worn, and won't be worn in quite some time. But I can def see the use for them.</p> <p>Then there's the loafers. They are super comfy and stunning, but also pricey. I think they'd be great late spring and summer workhorses, but that is as you know not a foolproof prediction. </p> <p>Any thoughts or advice for me? </p>
