I mentioned Clinton Kelly's dreaded "Boca sandal" in reply to rachylou's post regarding block heeled sandals. Boca does refer to Boca Raton, but let me assure you Michelle, that your sandals are way too strappy and fashionable to ever be confused with a Boca sandal! That is a killer outfit from head to toe.&nbsp;</p> <p>PS Boca sandals can be any colour, white was never singled out as far as I know. <br /><b>Just sayin'</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496867 Tue, 26 May 2015 22:39:57 +0000 Daria 1496867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to google "boca", but no matter how your are called, your are fantastic, as well your entire outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496852 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:56:01 +0000 Beth Ann 1496852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michelle, to my eye, this is an example of "what goes around comes around."&nbsp; These sandals do have a retro vibe to them --- slightly 70's in their feel.&nbsp; They're "cool" retro though, not "she's wearing grandma's sandals" retro.&nbsp; White sandals are back in a big wear and yours look lovely on your feet and with our outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496851 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:55:22 +0000 always trying 1496851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From what I read on that other post, it was that Clinton guy who coind the term "boca sandals".&nbsp; IMO the only thing I see older women who dress in old lady style in my area wear low wedge slide sandale, so that is what I thought they were.&nbsp; </p> <p>Now for me I am beginning to hate to hear the "fr---" word!&nbsp; Seems the definition some have extends even to jewelry and earings--that puzzles me as my definition is-something that is dowdy looking, long out of style, or a style that never was flattering to anyone, nor probably ever intended to be.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496847 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:45:25 +0000 Anonymous 1496847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They do add a "dash of summer brightness" and they don't look frumpy to me. Sandals with one or two very wide straps are very popular right now but they don't fit everyone well, and the ones you're wearing add a little texture as well as freshness.</p> <p>I like the navy and orange together Did you cut your hair a little or are you just styling it differently? I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496843 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:41:13 +0000 Sveta 1496843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As others I have no clue about "boca" but I like these with yoiur outfit!<br />Yay for white footwear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496833 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:35:17 +0000 Thistle 1496833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous!!&nbsp; Love the whole outfit, sandals and all </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496816 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:13:47 +0000 Inge 1496816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes.

I like the sandals enough that I would have considered a rare bout of defiance and worn them even without Ylf approval. Glad I don't have to do that. thanks for the k-word verdict, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496814 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:12:14 +0000 MTBGirl 1496814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know about bocas but I think you accomplished what you tried for - adding a dash of summer brightness to a lovely outfit!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496813 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:11:05 +0000 MuseumGal 1496813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed the thread, but pretty sure "boca" refers to Boca Raton Florida, which is a big retirement destination in the U.S. &nbsp;Boca sandals would thus be frumpy, elderly sandals. &nbsp;But you know what, eff that! &nbsp;If you like the shoes and they fit your feet and lifestyle, then they are Michelle sandals. &nbsp;I'll be cheering you on from the sidelines in my square toed clunky footwear that will never go out of style in *my* wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496812 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:06:56 +0000 Anonymous 1496812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say it complements your look. Those shoes are great (and I have similar ones in nude, so there ya go, I guess I'm biased). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496805 Tue, 26 May 2015 21:00:09 +0000 Angie 1496805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure what the reference to "boca sandals" was or even means, but rest assured that you look killer fabulous in this outfit, Michelle. The white sandals take the look to the next level - more fashionable and edgy. Plus, happy feet and stylish feet.&nbsp;</p> <p>SO FUN to see you in a skirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-if-shoes-make-the-foutfit-is-this-one-broken#post-1496788 Tue, 26 May 2015 20:29:49 +0000 Michelle 1496788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure exactly when this came up, but someone's thread recently tackled the topic of the allegedly dreaded "boca sandal." I say allegedly because:<br />A) I had never heard of the term until someone kindly linked to it and defined it as a white sandal with a low, square heel<br />AND <br />B) I, uh, might own a pair? </p> <p>I've loved the sandals I'm wearing in this picture for ages. My feet are ridiculous, and I won't bore you with all the reasons why, but these babies fit fabulously and seem to work well with my style for years now. In fact I liked them so much that I bought a pair in taupe patent snake. But when I put the white ones on today in a bid to add a dash of summer brightness to this orange blouse/blue pencil skirt/gold accessories combo, I found myself wondering. Are these bocas? And if so, do they wreck the whole look?<br /> Your post </p>
