bnrmom Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 So I have real big problems over here. I want to order these sandals, but can't decide between the two colors. (I'd get both if I could justify the money, but sadly, not an option.) http://www.zappos.com/product/7990711/color/360862 Which one should I get? I kind of like the brown more, but already have a pair of brown sandals, although a different style. Right now I'm wearing white cuffed jeans with a navy gauzy top, and the gold ones would look perfect. I'm leaning towards the gold. But the brown are so cute! What's a girl to do?

Happy Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I love the brown, too. Can't go wrong there...kinda of classic with a kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Brown. You can't go wrong with brown, whereas there are still people (like me :D ) who think that gold should be worn with something dressier.:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nono Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Now I am not a fashionista but one might call me a sandalista. My only comment would be that's a lot of gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 My fashionista would buy the brown because you can wear them with more things and she wants a pair. Not in the college budget. lol I like the gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klmama Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Definitely the brown, unless you have planned some very special evening occasion where you'll be wearing a white, Greek goddess dress that calls for the gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I say the gold because it's fashionable right now. Plus, it's not boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Florida. Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I'm not a fashionista but I was a shoe fiend in my younger days. I love the gold. They will go with a lot, especially in summer. I can see them with jeans, white pants, beige, and more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's a girl to do? a) you have a beautiful style b) and a great sense of fun c) I'd go with the brown, but I'm a mouse d) and thank you for reminding me about this site because I needed yellow sandals to complete my niece's gift. e) I also think the gold is "too much gold" but you gold girl!

elegantlion Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I think it depends. I like the classic tone of the brown, but with the outfit you described the gold would be great. I don't think it's too much, I have a pair of gold fashion boat shoes I just got, so there you go. I do think the sandals are a statement, but the gold adds to it. I think it might also depend on your skin tone. I am ghastly pale and the gold would create a more neutral look in those sandals on me. The brown with a skirt would create a heavier looking foot, which you may not want. That style of sandal makes a statement anyway, why not go all the way. *nudge*:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Now see I would wear this tunic, it was featured on the same page as the shoe. So that's my style, take my opinion with that in mind. http://www.zappos.com/product/7969689/color/3?zlfid=111&recoName=zap_pdp_sub&zfcTest=fw:0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HSMom2One Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 You'd get more mileage with the brown. And I agree the others, that's a whole lotta gold. Blessings, Lucinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alley Aw, what a cute post, thank you! I'm still torn, but leaning towards the gold just because I do think I want something lighter for summer. I'm tempted to order both on my credit card and then return one - that way at least I can try them on and see for myself. Big problems, I tell ya.

Big problems, I tell ya. :lol: My funny Italian grandma used to say, "oh, the problems we have, my darling." But I agree with you: brown doesn't say "summer" whereas gold screams it! Have fun.

DesertDweller Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I love the gold, but I wouldn't get them unless you plan to wear them only occasionally. I wouldn't wear them as much. I'd probably save them for dressier occasions. If you already have one or two pairs of brown for everyday, then go for the gold ones. Otherwise, I'd definitely buy the brown. You'll get the most wear out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuirkyKapers Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I would go with the gold. Its fun and more summery. Especially since you have something brown. Options are good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieamy Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 If I was fun and young and bold I would order the gold. I'm boring and practical though so I would order the brown. (Don't be like me - order the gold!!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Don't be like me - order the gold!!!) See everything is local. I live at the shore and the only women wearing that much gold on their feet also have at least 20 years on me and "old lady red" dyed hair too. ;) Hence my "that's a lot of gold" thought.

kitten18 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I don't understand the idea that the gold is not as versatile as the brown. *I* would wear the gold with more colors than the brown. I would wear the gold with brown, white, blue (navy or denim), and they could also be worn with black (not the case for the brown). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, metallics are fashionable and serve as a neutral. The gold would be a fun, stylish summery choice. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late to the party, but :iagree:with the above. Gold is the color right now and I think it is a neutral too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
