I like the lines of the vamp better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-337106 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 14:33:29 +0000 Anonymous 337106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with everyone else, the knotted ones seem a bit fussy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-337026 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 09:40:43 +0000 Lynne 337026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Guess, too, Arya - the simplicity seems younger to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336977 Fri, 22 Apr 2011 04:56:56 +0000 lyn* 336977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The less strappy ones.

I'm going to get these instead of the Born ones that I was asking about a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for your input, ladies!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336769 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 23:39:30 +0000 Jonesy 336769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go with comfort! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336747 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 23:11:13 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 336747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup I like the non-knotted ones too but since they are both really nice, I would normally choose based on comfort. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336727 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 22:35:37 +0000 catgirl 336727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely the first pair - not liking the knots as much at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336716 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 22:12:41 +0000 rosee 336716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer #1 without having mentioned the comfort issues -- but having mentioned them, I definitely prefer #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336715 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 22:11:38 +0000 Arya 336715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ Louise - I tend to agree. Very few new shoe discomforts lessen with age.<br /> @ Laura - I sympathize with your finals-riddled brain (though we have quarters here, so I'm just ending week 4 of a new quarter ugh). I agree with your point about the darker pair complementing my tattoos. I didn't really notice it until I looked at the photos again, and realized that that is probably another reason why that pair look more lengthening. They are real tattoos, but designed &amp; colored in such a way that they are usually presumed to be henna. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336703 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 21:43:12 +0000 Laura B. 336703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thoughts of comfort aside, I prefer the criss-cross sandal versus the knotted pair for the way it shows off without competing with your beautiful tattoos (or is it henna? I can't really tell from here). The shoe mirrors the v-shape of the tattoo and the color seems very similar.<br /> Either way, you're beautiful!</p> <p>I'm sorry if this doesn't make much sense, it's the last week before finals for me and I'm pretty much running off of coffee lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336698 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 21:24:12 +0000 Louise 336698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Same one as you if it seems as though the strap is 'funny' over your pinkie toe now it will probably cause problems when wearing them x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336688 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 20:54:39 +0000 Arya 336688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray! I have them on hold and can pick them up tomorrow. Thanks for your quick reply, Angie!</p> <p>Everybody else - I'm also interested in what you think! What's your take? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336683 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 20:50:27 +0000 Angie 336683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also prefer the sandal that you do for exactly the same reasons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-shoes-part-1#post-336682 Thu, 21 Apr 2011 20:46:54 +0000 Arya 336682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Decision 1: A Tale of Two Wedges<br /> On my left foot: GUESS wedge, comfortable, good stability, neutral color, crossing straps create a flattering/lengthening line for my leg (I really like the V it creates)<br /> On my right foot: BOC (I think), mostly comfortable - BUT one of the straps pushes my pinkie toe in a way that may become troublesome, good stability, light fawn = super neutral</p> <p>My take: I'm leaning more toward the shoe on my left (GUESS). While I like the knotted straps of the lighter pair, I am concerned about my pinkie toe getting blistered. I also feel that the left pair, though not as close to my skin tone, makes a more flattering line for my leg/ankle than the light pair. Last but not least, while I'm interested in a pair of neutral shoes, I realized that I really like being able to see them...not having them disappear into the background of my skin.</p> <p>I can go back to DSW tomorrow and pick up one or the other. Which do you prefer? </p>
