So I have been looking for new black loafers for several years now to replace some old ones that are quite ratty but I keep wearing because I haven't found a replacement that I like as well. They need to be fairly basic so they work easily in my wardrobe but I don't want them to be boring.

Finally I found these last weekend at Nordstrom Rack. They were a good price and I think a good brand (not very familiar to me), very comfortable although a little narrow maybe. I can't wear very thick socks with them, although my loafers are primarily warmer weather shoes so I don't think I would anyway.

But now after the trend post from earlier this week I wonder if they will have longevity. Will the pointy toe feel "out" soon? They have a little sparkle which I like but will that make them not basic enough? My current ones have a square toe which I never really worried about being "in" or "out" for some reason. I am probably over thinking this whole thing.

Opinions?
