In my earlier post (http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....rstructure) I was trying to find ways to change up the usual black shoe/black hosiery combination I default to in winter. One of the suggestions was for pewter metallic shoes, so I ordered several options from ASOS. The package finally came, so here they are!

I've pretty much decided on which I may keep; 3 of 4 are definitely going back. But I would still love any opinions!

1-3: Pointy-toe flats with black trim and wide elastic ankle strap. They are truly a shiny pewter; reflecting slightly pinky because of the dress and lighting. They are quite comfortable and I like the look and feel.

4-6: Low-heel pumps with double straps. These are also quite comfortable. I think they look too blingy for work. The smooth shiny bits are quite shiny, and the main material is a pewter lame-type fabric. I love metallic shoes everyday, but these look like party shoes.

7-9: Antique pewter leather loafers. I admit, this isn't my favorite type of shoe with dresses... I ordered these to give it a try. And I'm still not convinced. It didn't help that they're definitely too short/too narrow in the toes.

10-12: Block heel pewter ballet pumps with black trim. Ilike the look of these, a lot more than I thought! Unfortunately they are not comfortable. Best for a higher-volume foot (mine is NOT) and they somehow feel... hard and inflexible when moving.

The first shoes are the ones I'm considering keeping. The strap and trim hide on black opaque tights, but they'll show up on my more sheer and patterned ones.
