I think this was an Angie pick! (Can't find the post now). Kenneth Cole Ciao Ciao laceless oxford. At first I was going to hold off on more wintry items for this year.

But curiosity got to me, and they ARE low-heeled, and oxfords, and in my color palette.

Extremely comfortable! Pics just showing shoes. They’re not trend-pointy or super refined, but then, that is why the toe box works for my feet. Heel is a bit loose as usual for M width, so I may add a heel gripper.
The pewter toe cap is subtle, which is another plus.

My style issue: In warmer weather I can do the nude knee-high thing to flash some ankle, and can also wear with BF jeans, but often I will wear these with pants and some kind of trouser socks. Not sure what that does to the oxford style quotient, but it is what works for me. What seems to help is to make the rest of the outfit as ladylike as I can, whether it’s the style of the pants or the top or both (tops are easier to come by, but still working on more pants options).

I’ve not had any time to play around with them, including skirts, but in general I for skirts I am looking for a more refined shoe--for oxfords, slimmer, lower-vamped style, perhaps cut-out styles for spring/summer.

Thanks for looking! Comments and suggestions welcome.
