It looked really cool in the store but it doesn't seem to go with anything else in my wardrobe. It's almost painful opening the closet door and seeing it just standing there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worst-purchase-of-the-season#post-1144351 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 14:55:17 +0000 Lisa 1144351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope you get more snow weather.&nbsp; My worst purchase has been wedge sneakers.&nbsp; I adore the look, but the wedges must've been too high and I've been struggling with an inflamed nerve in my foot for the past 4 months already!&nbsp; Ugh! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worst-purchase-of-the-season#post-1143170 Sat, 18 Jan 2014 21:37:45 +0000 Windchime 1143170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have next weekend open?

The former are good for years, so hopefully you will get good use of them later this year or in the years to come.

What a joke. Fortunately, did not wear them out of the house, got to have the eye-opening teetering-down-hill experience in other boots of similar height, so was able to return them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worst-purchase-of-the-season#post-1142495 Sat, 18 Jan 2014 01:05:18 +0000 annagybe 1142495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ski boots! I went once at Whistler over thanksgiving. Nothing since, finally have some free time next weekend. But there's no precipitation in the forecast. Local resorts are still saying early season conditions. </p>
