Yayyyy for team small heels.

I'm glad you're trying a few heels, a little change is good. The stacked heel style of your shoes in 1/2 are a current favorite of mine as I find them pretty stable and I like their solid visual feel. Your hair never ceases to amaze me, what great accessory! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329738 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 03:51:50 +0000 E 1329738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! And it sounds like a style shift that will open up more options (vs switching to flats only, which is difficult).</p> <p>I have, within the past week or two, become strangely enamored with the idea of a pair of overalls (but ones with skinny legs). Which I never ever thought I'd say! I blame the second picture in <a rel="nofollow" href="http://theproject333.com/project-333-style-stories-emma/">this post</a> &amp; RachyLou. I don't know if I'll be able to find a pair, but I kind of hope I do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329735 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 03:49:09 +0000 Anonymous 1329735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all your heels! And they seem much more sensible than a sports car. Especially since they seem fairly walkable.</p> <p>I think #4 is my favorite here. It just looks really simple and bold.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329717 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 03:30:14 +0000 Anonymous 1329717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia, your outfits, shoes, bags, hair...it all looks amazing on adorable you. I love the way I look in heels (anything above 1.5 inches) but can't do it anymore. Wear those 2 inchers while you can ;)<br /> I fact, pre YLF shoes and bags were not on my radar. Now I have clutches, shopper, crossbody, shoulder bags, totes and satchels, and a much larger and more varied footwear collection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329671 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 02:30:51 +0000 Jaime 1329671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I will never abandon my flats! But even team flats can wear their mini-heels sometimes :-)!<br />Aida, of course I walk best with flats or flatforms, but both shoes here have withstood pretty heavy walking days. Of course that did not include lots and lots of stairs ;-)!<br />Staysfit, interesting point. It may be that shoes technology has just advanced since I was young.&nbsp;<br />Rachy I deeply and completely relate to your story.&nbsp;<br />Anna, thanks! You are a fantastic inspiration!<br />Shedev and Sara thanks!<br />Lyn, let's see a dress!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329580 Wed, 13 Aug 2014 00:27:08 +0000 Angie 1329580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't leave me behind on Team Flats, Jaime.&nbsp;</p> <p>*sobbing*</p> <p>Jokes aside.

Lookin' good :)</p> <p>Funny you should say. I've had these sheer toppers forever and a day - and I never ever wore them. Not like once. I bought them because they could be cool... but also tacky, if not careful... but I wouldn't wear them because they didn't seem comfortable. As in not warm. Slidy and slippy. And then recently, as in the last month, all of a sudden I felt I could and they'd go really good with the ol' skinny legs... which I think they do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329519 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 22:46:29 +0000 Aida 1329519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey 2" heels are still heels I like the heels you've got here, have you found them OK for walking so far? It is a bit of a change from flats, though I've found that I tend to drag my feet in flats &gt;&lt; As you said, they can really help with long and loose supporting acts; instant touch of refinement and added structure without needing to fuss with the clothing part. Fab outfits of course, and such a great mix of pieces as always. How fun that you were able to find the bag in #3, it's lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329509 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 22:35:49 +0000 shedev 1329509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All great looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329479 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 22:02:07 +0000 Lyn D. 1329479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What's not to love!<br />I am often attracted to dresses, but rarely wear them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329206 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 16:09:40 +0000 annagybe 1329206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like #3.<br />I'm honored that I inspired #4, it's great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329124 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:26:46 +0000 Sara L. 1329124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits!&nbsp; I think your shoes are great and, heels or not, really fit your style.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329122 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 14:20:09 +0000 Jaime 1329122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! I admit not everyone would see 2 inch shoes as "heels" but to me they are revolutionary!<br />Quietgirl I like all sorts of loafers, oxfords, (lately) sneakers, and do find pointy toe flats comfortable. These are in addition to all of that! Granted I am a major shoe person.<br />Denise and Shannon, I think some of my luck relates to finding a lot of local designers. Although I wish I knew where the shorts in the last outfit came from - they are really well made and look like some very current things I have seen but were found in a regular charity shop about a year ago. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1329081 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 13:37:16 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1329081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your thrifting skills are amazing Jaime.

Looks really effortless but has cool detail. Not sure if everyone would consider the shoes heels. I am with you that anything that is not flat constitutes a heel :)</p> <p>My weird style shift are dresses. I haven't been a dress girl for 20+ years. Yeah, I wear them on occasion or more like special events. Well I have been reaching for easy casual summer dresses. It hasn't even been that hot. my casual dresses were old, sandy beach vacation leftovers so I actually bought two dresses last month. My kids were so blown away. Mommy has a dress on, so funny. Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--slight-style-shift-toward-slight-heels#post-1328876 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 03:59:57 +0000 Jaime 1328876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For the first time I can remember, I am suddenly interested in wearing heels. I do not remember wearing heels ever in my life on a regular basis, but lately I find myself grabbing my heels (I define heels as anything more than totally flat and never go higher than very comfortable 3 inch heels - more likely 2 inches). Is it because lengths are getting longer and wider? Is this some sort of mid-life crisis?</p> <p>#1,2 Zara top, 3.1 Philip Lim jeans (2nd hand), Santo Fastini heels (2nd hand), red crossbody (2nd hand). Wrong layering tank under this top, but I am in love with these shoes. What do you think?</p> <p>#3 I know you are thinking I stole this bag from Angie when I saw her. I did! Just kidding! I have been gently coveting this bag for years since Angie first wore it and sometime last winter during an ebay troll session it popped up. I only got my hands on it when I got to my sister in July and have been wearing it most days ever since. Top thrifted, Ronen Chen pants thrifted, CoupleOf sandals from a couple of years ago.</p> <p>#4 This is my Anna wannabe outfit. (Anna it is ok if you don't approve!). ALC twisted hem tee (Buffalo Exchange last month), thrifted shorts (label cut out), Senso (Australian brand) Sandals (clearance sale)</p> <p>Have you suddenly found yourself attracted something that is usually not on your radar? Are 2 inch heels my shiny red sports car? Thanks for any and all comments!</p> <p> </p>
