I like the idea of oxfords with looks that bare the ankles: rolled pants,
skirts, shorts, etc. But I usually don't like them on me. However, I tried the look yesterday for work. I wasn't too happy with the look on me, and I'm not sure why I don't think it works. I've always suspected it's the shape of my ankles and/or I just like other looks better on me. These oxfords are especially high-vamped, too. I'm not sure I would wear these shoes again without having my pant hems meet or cover the top of them. What do you think?

The outfit (worn to work): olive chinos with brass studs down the sides (Lucky); black spatter-print tee in shades of gray, sage, off-white (made by me); black cardigan (J. Jill); black belt; black oxfords (Josef Seibel); olive coat (Laundry by Shelli Segal); black satchel (Elliott Lucca); brass and silver earrings and bracelet (Lucky). I did not really want to wear the cardigan, but I was cold, and I ended up keeping it on most of the day.

I welcome your feedback. Thanks for looking!
