Now that I've had to reluctantly relinquish my Ugg boots due to warmer weather, I've been wanting some casual shoes for weekend errands and here are some potential picks. I like how fashion has come full circle as I remember wearing most of these 15-20 years ago! And as much as I swore to never again wear them, I think I'm ready to try them out again.
Bensimon: a familiar sight from my school uniform days,
except back then they were Keds, most definitely not French
Sperry: I've made fun of these for a while now but
somehow they look cuter in metallic or bright colors, no?
Toms: these tend to trend a bit too hipster-ish
for my tastes but proceeds do go to a good cause...
Tretrons: these classics have the Jcrew stamp of approval
Thoughts? Am I missing anyone else?
After resisting Tom's for a while, I finally gave in. Why did I wait? They're awesome. I wear them all of the time. So much that I need another pair. Or two. (Three?)
ReplyDeleteI have the Sperry's in orange patent (just in case I can't find my feet) and they are not as comfy. My coworker loves hers but maybe the reg leather is softer?
hmmmm Rebecca--I think I might try the Tom's after that rave review :o) How's sizing?
ReplyDeleteIf you hate them, blame me. Sizing is consistent. I wear an 11 in most things and an 11 in Tom's. I just bought the gold glitter ones for my sister for her birthday! (I have olive and am considering another solid.)
ReplyDeletethanks! I'm wavering b/t gold glitter (glitter!) and the grey canvas (more practical)
ReplyDeleteIf you don't have metallic shoes, they are essentially a neutral. (Again, blame me!)
