Two new pair of shoes...and sunnies, help?

I've been collecti...er, picking up some shoes and sunnies lately and need some opinions from you all.
Shoes: Steve Madden Riddgge and Charles David Gia
Sunnies: Marc and Jimmy Choo (three cheers for the Rack, no?)
PS: It is so awkward taking pictures of your own face.

Is that a new maxi? I spy a tag. Is that the GAP maxi. If yes, I want to know how it runs (and length info, too).

I am in LOVE with both pairs of shoes, but they have such different vibes. I vote keep both, but what did you have in mind? If I HAD to pick, those clogs give me palpitations. ;D

There is nothing wrong with "test driving" multiple pairs of sunnies.

And remember, it is ALWAYS shoe breeding season. The end.

I'm kind of a sunglasses "freak" so I'd keep both Mark and Jimmy since they are so different from each other! As far as the shoes go - I LOVe the Charles David's! Love.

I'm not sure which shoe is which, but I love the one with the brown wood-looking bottom - awesome! Of course, the other one is equally fab...hmm tough decision you have!

Hehe, thanks girls. Heather, this is a Matty M maxi, the Gap is just entirely too short. I'm 5'7" and it hit at my ankle. This one is a dream, for half the price at the Rack.
I'm thinking of returning the Riddgge sandals. They are comfy, but similar to a not as comfy pair I already have

I also have these but wear them far too much

I like the Choo sunnies better, the shape is a little smaller than the first pair. Both shoes are nice but the Charles shoe with the wooden heel is so different from what I've seen you wear and will work nicely wtih your flared jeans, I vote for them.

I also like both sunnies and think that the blue is cooler toned and the green is warmer with the gold tone so they'd serve very different purposes, if it is not too cost prohibitive to keep both. After all you do live in a very sunny climate.

I think just about the same of the shoes. they are such different styles. The clogs would look great with bootcut jeans and the other ones look good with the dress you are wearing, and if they look that good and are comfortable too, keep and get rid of the other ones that you say are not as comfortable. Consignment maybe?

I love the black dress on you, especially with your tan arms.

I like the blue glasses better, I don't like the ridge across the top of the other ones. I would have to keep both shoes, they seem very different. I could not choose. Both very cool.

I love both pairs of shoes, but my fave is of course the high vamp studded wood soled clogs. I'm not good with sunglasses, both pairs look like keepers to me.

The sunnies have such different vibes, are you going for sophisticated or fun? I think the black clogs are fantastic.

I like both the sunnies...different for different outfits ..of course...Impossible for me to pick a shoe, both super cute.

OK, for what it's worth I'd go with the Choo sunglasses...that aviator shape is very flattering on you. And I'd pick the sandals (#5) over the clogs.

Everything is great, though! Good luck!

FYI, the Choos are the blues and the aviators are the Marcs. Not that it matters who made them, but it helps differentiate which ones you like better.
Not that I have to choose. Hm.

I love the blue pattern on the Choos sunnies and the colour is great on you, but I feel the glasses are a tad too big for your features? The Marcs are keepers if you ask me;-)

Both pairs of shoes are fantastic. If you can only keep one pair, I vote for the wood soled clogs because they are so different (and look amazing on).

Sorry, back to the maxi: Sarah, WOW. It fits you beautifully. You are welcome to send your GAP one East. ;D hahaha.

And the sunnies: I would keep both. They are suitable for different occasions. The same for the shoes. The CD: I may be stalking those, too.

I like the Marcs and the strappy sandals!

I like both sandals, with a slight preference for the wooden heel ones. Re. the sunglasses: neither are tickling my fancy, but sunglasses are such a personal thing--which ones make you feel mysterious and fab :)?

Jjsloane

Shoes - I vote whichever is comfiest because both are nice. Sunglasses if you love these go with #2 (Marcs) but I think both are slightly big for your face.

Love all. You can never go wrong with another pair of sunglasses can you?

How great, although maybe a tad frustrating, that you found two of each. Bonus day in my book.

Of the two, I prefer the aviators, but I'm not sure whether they should cover your brow line.

I also prefer the strappier wedges, but I am a notorious clog-hater.

Love the blue sunnies! KILLER.

I vote the strappy shoes and not the clogs - am I a spanner? I find those more flattering than the clogs!

All right, decision made on the sunnies, but still unsure of the shoes.
I've complicated things by adding one more pair in the running.
It's not a matter of cost, but I don't want to clog my closet full of duplicates.
I love these sandals a lot, in fact I'm gong to try the nude as well since I don't have any nude sandals at the moment.
Any additional thoughts before I start making cuts?

Try the nude. I don't like the black tops on the cork bottoms. I don't think they are as flattering as either of the earlier pairs you posted.

No-no-no! Your credit card simply needs to groan and bear it - everything looks stunning on you - you NEED them all. YLF! (and I love the hairstyle!)
