Fantastic! Those shoes are "teh bomb" . I have been looking for a pink top just that shade, and the slinky pants, well, it's like they were made for you. I'm gushing, ok, I know. May I just say that clutch is also exceptional?

I consistently wear a 6.5 and that's what these are. Can't speak to how much they stretch or if they wear well though - only time will tell!</p> <p>Thanks Shedev, AviaMariah, Von, Sara and Joy :)</p> <p>BTW I discovered something significant with these shoes. I love the look of pumps and a pointier toe but even if the toe box is wide enough to accommodate my bunion, I often find pumps uncomfortable because as I walk my foot wants to slide forward which then crams my toes into the point - ouch! But because these shoes have the ankle strap, my foot stays in place while I walk and presto! EXTREME comfort. My piggie toes are very happy today </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039285 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 15:51:26 +0000 Anonymous 1039285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great Angie inspired look.

I might check them out myself. I would adore the Okalas but felt that a backless pump was sort of stupid in our climate -- I just wouldn't wear them except in summer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039150 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 13:08:11 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1039150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did a wee outfit tweak when I got into the office - I actually added one more roll to the pants which seems to have "flattened" out the bulkiness since it covered the actual hem a bit better. Plus it shows a bit more of the ankle strap on the shoe. Much better IMHO.</p> <p>The pants are not as slim as Angie's version and they are silkier but in her formula I think there is room for variation on the type of pants. I'm fine with this "Shannon version".</p> <p>Diane - I don't think I'd want to iron the roll to set it because then when I want to wear the pants full length, I will have to iron them again to get that crease out, you know?</p> <p>Ruth - the shoes are from RW &amp; Co - surprisingly comfy.They don't come in wide widths but my feet border on wide so these might work for you.</p> <p>Suz - these shoes have no off gas odor (thank goodness!) and they do have a reasonably decent amount of foot padding. Yes, the back is HIGH but I'm lucky in that I have very little shape and definition in my heel (part of the reason why many shoes slip off my heel) and I think that works for me with these. I did add a wee bit of moleskin to the inside of the back top just because they rubbed a bit. But I've already run up to the Labour Floor twice and am totally impressed with the comfort - not a problem spot anywhere now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039122 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 12:31:43 +0000 Suz 1039122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love! I am so pinning you.&nbsp;</p> <p>And oh, Shannon -- my pointy toed gold shoes came from RW&amp;Co this spring! They off-gassed like crazy and they are not at all padded on the footbed, but the toe shape is <b>SUPER</b> comfortable, I agree. How are the heel backs on these? They look awfully high? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039111 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 12:17:38 +0000 Anonymous 1039111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look fab Shannon. I do get Ceit's point though about the roll though. You could try a gentle iron to 'set' the roll. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039103 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 11:56:55 +0000 Anonymous 1039103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where did you get the shoes? :cool:&nbsp;I have a bunion, too. Do those shoes come in a wide width?</p> <p>As for the overall look, I think it's very good, though I personally would wear slimmer-legged pants. Still, you pulled it off well. Good job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039102 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 11:53:51 +0000 Anonymous 1039102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am sure it is the photo instead of seeing them in motion. I also think your roll is softer and less crisp than Angie's, but I think that is because her trousers weren't silky like yours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039100 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 11:51:07 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1039100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ceit - is it possible the way the roll meets the ankle strap looks like one big roll in the pic? When I walk you see a tiny bit of skin between the shoe and pant hem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039097 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 11:42:51 +0000 Anonymous 1039097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the shoes! The pants I am unsure about rolled -- the roll seems a bit bulky and the pants too fluid? I don't know. I like the pattern on them and the drape. You look great in that colour pink. </p> <p>You've inspired me to try this out with my Doc sandals, maybe tomorrow :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-angies-ankle-strap-formula#post-1039095 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 11:38:37 +0000 ramya 1039095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gasp!!!!
