I'm glad I bought the oiled leather. Love the color of the buckles

So pretty on you! May I ask what toe nail polish you have on? It's such a gorgeous red!
 
This will be my last purchase this summer

^^^ These are beautiful!

Whereas I think I'm going with the ugly -- but oh so functional -- Milano (I need a backstop for lots os walking), if I can find it in a light enough colour that it won't look so chunky next to my bright white legs :p

Anyone have cocoa nubuck anything? Is it as light as Tobacco?

You can burn my house
Steal my car
Drink my liquor
From an old fruit jar

Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh, honey
Lay off of my shoes
And don't you
Step on my blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything
But stay off of my blue suede shoes
:lawl:
 
Can someone tell me if you are ordering from a website that lists the sizes like 5M, 6M, etc. is the 5M considered a 36 in the Gizeh? I really wish they would list the EU size because it confuses me. TIA

Just FYI, I had a horrific time with sizing recently for my Arizonas. I ordered from Bloomingdales online (bleah... the worst) and they had the sizes listed as US. For reference, I generally wear a 6.5 in loose/open shoes and a 7 if they are closed like boots.

Ordered a US 7 (smallest size they had) and received a EU 38. It was like putting on my husbands sandals. I sent them back, and although they somehow now list in the EU sizing, every other size before 38 was OOS on the Bloomies website. So, I went to a store nearby and the EU 36 wound up fitting the best - which lists as a US 5.5!!! Huh?!?!

Anyways, I went with the 36 and they fit as the Birk websites suggest, with the toes just butting up against the little outside rim/ridge.

First pair- plantar fasciitis has made me desperate for comfort.
How is the fashion side of things with this pair? I love them on other people. I feel like they look so clunky on me. Could they be worn for work? Skinny pants and blazer are usually my thing.
