Just got feet, don't got SHOES

It's really only AGL on people with extremely thin legs but I tend to think that's true of tight/skinny jeans in general. They're just not flattering on most people.

Hm, I think there's a sweet spot for them and most people don't try enough styles to find their best length and taper, but maybe it just goes with my look/schtick.

most people don't try enough styles to find their best length and taper

That might be true. I definitely think they're one of the harder styles to wear so that getting a really good fit would be important and most people probably don't have the time/inclination to do that and just wind up with badly fitting jeans. I've definitely never found any that flatter me but I also get impatient and give up easily when it comes to trying on clothes.

My legs are so much thinner than my beer belly. I need Gap to come up with an alcoholic edition to their Lean & Long line. Le sigh.

I wear jeans all the time. I find that a slight bootleg is the most flattering for me because of my big ole booty, and a high waist gives me a good shape. I have to go with fairly fitted jeans though...anything too baggy and they just look kinda bad

i have moccassins and i love them! viva minnetonka! they're like little slippers. i wear them with casual clothes or when i am feeling like being very comfortable.

I almost bought a pair of purple Minnetonka moccasins from the Saks outlet last year...god they were lovely

Yeah I don't think much styling is needed? Just kinda casual! easy breezy beautiful moccasin girl

Yeah, they're Minnetonkas. Pretty excited about them tbh.

Just wear them with whatever! Mine are grey with little beaded bird.

what color did you get, enbb?

brown with little beaded bird but almost got grey

bearded birds!!

i need a pair of comfortable, YET GLAMOROUS high heels for my Vegas trip in November. Anyone got any ideas!?

I'm sure these are very comfortable, you should get them

Have you tried any of the Cole Haan heels, carl? Since he did that whole nike thing I've heard p good things from my heel-wearing friends about how comfortable they are

though they're pretty $$$

High-heeled boots and shoes with laces or straps are like 300% more wearable ime than pumps or open shoes.

yep, I have found the most comfortable heels i have are usually t-straps or mary janes

Holy whoa I scored the sweetest puppies from my thrift store for like $5

my coworker is wearing (something very similar to) these today

she can't walk in them
she can barely stand in them

from a distance it looks like she has cinderblocks tied to her feet

Someone needs to tell her it is too late in the year for that shit. Cork is out after Steptember, girl.

and she's wearing them with regular jeans which just looks super weird

in other news, who wants to pitch in for some $2300 Giuseppe Zanottis

PS I have a pair of wedges v similar to those but the soles are even worse, they're WOOD, and the uppers are red patent. Still, it is past the middle of October, find some pride.

lol
also otm what is this club med?
no

I have a pair of wedges are similar to those red ones but in green and turquoise. They are less uncomfortable than heels. But they are definitely summer shoes.

I wish I could find a pair of platform sandals with a wider heel. I hate all these narrow heels!

omfg @ those Zanotti's

i FINALLY got my new boots (infinity shoes took 4 weeks to ship!!!!!!): the india wedge boot and the collette ankle boot i mention here

they are way nicer IRL, the india boot is what i've been searching for forever and they are SO COMFORTABLE - like crazy comfy. i was also impressed that the collette boots come with little replacement pads for the bottom of the heels.

Nice score, dude! Those are beautiful.

thinking about these: http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/miz-mooz-bailey-boot/3191897

Yes, love them. I have a pair of red Miz Mooz that I love but are slightly small. Has anyone had any success having shoes stretched by a cobbler before?

Not recently, but in the UK in the past I have done. Very tiny difference, though. Also, I could swear my feet have grown a bit in the last 5 years o_0

They're really cute so I think I'll give it a shot but it doesn't work i'll come back and see if anyone wants them. :)

steviee deux, those shoes are great! ya lucky punk.

My neighbor showed me a really nice pair of I think Cole Haan boots that she got as a gift but were too narrow. They didn't stretch them, they actually sewed in matching colors of leather to add to the width. Nice work. Place in Queens that she likes. This is obv not an answer unless you have a good full-service cobbler around but it could save that pair of boots you just LOVE.

Got these for the Canadian winter, now for some reason wondering if I did the right thing. Too casual to go with enough stuff? http://www.zappos.com/blondo-marcia-black-santa-fe.

Got a week or so to decide whether to return them.

Woah wait, Zappos is delivering here again? Hallelujah! I think those are really nice but I am a black boot addict. If we get a slushy winter you're going to want some Sorels (or at least I love 'em.. Cozy.)

they have a pretty sleek sole (instead of heavy/chunky tread) so they should be pretty wearable with dresses/skirts, i think?

I like that they are future-boots, but the shape of the heel/wedge isn't a look that I go with, prob b/c I think it's not in proportion for me, but could be for someone else. I would see if they can be waterproofed, maybe?

FFM, I bought them in an actual store! Sorry to disappoint...

J - yeah, that aspect of them is good. I guess they're just not 'sleek', a bit athletic in the sole.

Orbit, they're supposed to be waterproof but also I have this spray (of the type that shoe stores flog all the time). Is it possible to get boots permanently waterproofed somehow?

Whoa, FFM, I didn't know about Sorel! Now these are serious: http://www.sorelfootwear.ca/Women%E2%80%99s-Tofino%E2%84%A2-Boot/LL1846,en_CA,pd.html

Yeah, I love the Sorels for the walk to the bus when people haven't shovelled yet! These are similar to mine: http://www.shoptoit.ca/images/detail/82719000/82719779.jpg

Nice!

I finally got me some saddle shoes and they are bewdyful! OMG I don't think I've worn a pair of new shoes that were so immediately comfortable. Dang.

holy heck those are gorgie

they're a little pointier at the toe than I realized but i love love love them! I feel very ~special~ wearing them, even with schleppy normal work clothes

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

i wanted BURGUNDY PLUMMY warmth this is just fucking PURPLE you LIARS
