Pewter or Black? Help!

10:15 PM

Okay lovelies, I need everyone's opinion. I fell in love with the amazing Linea Paolo "Adair" studded platform sandal and decided to snatch up the size 4. In my infinite wisdom, I decided to have both colors sent to me so I could decide which to keep. My dilemma is that I have now fallen in love with both, so if you could please tell me which you like best to help me decide I would really appreciate it!

Batter #1, Pew-Pew-Pewter! This one is a bronzier pewter than I had imagined, but since it is closer to my skintone, it also makes my legs look super long. Classy.


Batter #2, Black. Classic color, and the gunmetal studs look pretty awesome. Legs look shorter than the pewter, but the black is way more rockstar.



I didn't expect them to be so different! Please give me your opinion, and if you can, your reasoning. Thank you guys!

  3. Pewter for sure! They certainly do create the illusion of longer legs. Who wouldn't want that? Never mind the rock star look, I say the shoes that make your legs look amazing are the way to go ;)
    I'm personally not a fan of the rock star look to be honest which would also explain my gravitating towards the pewter; it looks classier and softer. Although, the black pair does look edgier. Having said that, most people have far too many black heels to begin with.

  4. I'd say pewter, because it does make your legs longer. And I guess it's more unique than the black? The black one seems be to everywhere...

  5. Pewter <3

    Because honestly, black shoes are probably what EVERYONE is gonna wear at parties or out clubbing. I went to Vegas last month and every single girl was wearing LBDs and black heels I started to zone out on all their faces until I saw a girl in red with heels other than the color black.

    And like you said, your legs look more elongated with the pewter ones so bonus points for you! You'll be turning heads by wearing something other than black already and what better way to up the competition more by looking extra fine in said heels.

    You can always customize the pewter heels with a whole new different style that deviate from those dresses that look better with black heels and come up with a more refreshing look that beats the typical all black attire. Which I'm sure for you, won't be too hard at all :D

  6. If I had to choose, I would personally keep the black pair because I think it's more versatile, you can wear it with skirts and jeans. The pewter seems like they'd only look nice with skirts or capris. I guess it depends on your style! Those are so cute...you always manage to find such cute shoes despite having tiny feet!

    BTW, I was wondering--do your nails ever turn yellow-ish from wearing too much nail polish?

  7. I have to say pewter, because it's a more unique color, and I'm sure you can find a black one easy. Also the pewter actually draws people's attention to, instead of a pair of black shoes. I think you can dress up or down with the pewter easier and match more clothes than a black one.

  8. It's funny what a big difference color can make... black is probably more popular, but pewter will make the statement, I think =)

    Good luck choosing! This is a toughy :X

  9. Gotta go with the PEWTER!!!! Black is too plain jane, they wont stand otu as much as the pewter. They are both great but for you trust me pewter really makes you stand out!!!

  13. I didn't know you could find size 4 out of an Asian mall, let alone Nordstrom! This is news to me. But yes, the decision is so hard! Rockstar is hot though, you'll definitely stand out! Go black!

  17. PEWTER...!!

    They look so good on you.!!

  18. Black looks awesome and it's heaps easy to match. Pewter is specky though which is also good. Since they're both in your possession you might as well mix and match different styles with them. :)

  19. PEWTER!! its soft and edgy at same time, plus everyone else will be wearing black studded shoes. It's refreshing to be different...Thanks for sharing and love your blog and videos.

  21. Both are gorgeous but the pewter is so unique! Black is much more common; you'll just look like any girl walking down the street.

  22. pewter looks for glam!

  23. Pewter - because of the visibility of the detail and because it makes your legs look they go on for miles ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  24. the pewter one because it looks more elegant with some edge whereas the black on has a more rugged feel to it

    ReplyDelete
  25. Pewter! it's cuter and definitely compliments your legs. ^_^ very cool shoes!

    ReplyDelete
  26. I agree with everyone here. Go with pewter! I think it's more unique and it makes your legs look great!

  27. black. they look more expensive. they are also more dressy looking. but it's up to you.

    personally, i would definitely keep the black and contemplate keeping the pewter :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Keep the black, pewter looks cheap.

  29. i really like the pewter on you =) they look great! i wish i could wear such high heels but i have retarded feet that blister and yeah.. =P

  30. Pewter for sure!! It gives a perfect yet subtle twist to the shoes. :)

  31. I would say, pewter, because it does make your legs look longer, so...if it was me...I would wear the pewter ones more often since they look good on me. (: The black ones ARE nice...but..I would probably where them less often. The pewter ones are more worth it since I would where them more, they seem very functional, and you would get more enjoyment out of them since you can wear them more. Atleast that's my own personal opinion.

  36. I like the pewter...it's so hot!

  37. pewter for sure! i reckon its a color that is NOT black, yet matches almost anything that black can. blacks getting boring.. it is a staple, but boring. not to mention your legs DO look hotter in the pewter.

    ReplyDelete
  38. black!
    so sexy! and they stand out way more, especially the studs!

    pewter is a nice color too but i still like black in this pair! :)

  39. I WANT THIS IN MY SHOE COLLECTION. These are one of the hottest pairs of shoes I have ever seen. I'm having a hard time choosing as well because both of them are so gorgeous. I think you should keep pewter though, because it makes you look less "bold" since you're so skinny/petite. I'm very skinny as well, but I'm 5'3... I want both so badly! Hot shoes, Jen!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Pewter for the win!!!

    Now that you mention it, the black really does cut the leg off at the strap. I really need to keep this in mind too, since I'm petite as well :)

    ReplyDelete
  41. Pewter for sure! Pewter looks really classy and unique. and it DOES make your legs look longer. Though the black looks good, I'd still say that it's not as outstanding as pewter. So many ppl are wearing black these days I don't even bother to take a second glance at them unless they are super super fancy (which is rare)! So pewter's the way to go!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Definitely pewter! Those are hottt

    ReplyDelete
  43. pewter!! u can ALWAYS find black shows but pewter is something different! plus, i do think they are still versatile bcuz it's a gorgeous neutral color

    ReplyDelete
  44. i would have to choose pewter, but they're both gorgeous. :)
    i'm jealous of your legs!!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Choo-Choo-Choose the Pewter one. Like you said it makes your legs looks longer, sexier too. Black is way too common! Pewter will make you stand out from the crowd. I think this Pewter says both classy & Rock Star on you!

    ReplyDelete
  46. i like the bronzy one! As you said, it makes your legs look longer but its also softer and more unique :P

    ReplyDelete
  47. Jen, the decision is quite clear. It's the pewter, as most people are already saying. I would've picked the pewter as well just because black looks too typical. Metallics are hot for the Fall as well. So if you pick the pewter, it will be much more unique and in fashion. Also it flatters you fabulously! What's not to love about that? =)

  48. WOahhhhhh those shoes are F.I.T!!!
    I want I want

    ReplyDelete
  49. I'm into the muted colors lately. I think u should keep the pewter.

    ReplyDelete
  50. tough choice, but i'd say black because it's classic -- you can't go wrong with it! :)

    ReplyDelete
  51. Both look good! Recently ive bought a light grey one too (but there wasnt any other black version that i could choose XD)...
    But anywayz, id go for the black one.
    Black is always black. U can use them a lot, either on summer nights or cold seasons (w/ black leggings - the pewter wouldnt look as good, and they also stand out more from your skin tone ^^)
    but, even so... the pewter one is a good choice too and more unnusual than the same old black ;)

    haha did i help you? XD

    ReplyDelete
  52. Pewter! It's unique & the light and soft shade doesn't 'cover up' the studs like how the black does :) plus it elongates your leg and i'm sure you can pull off any look with that platform!

    ReplyDelete
  53. Get them both! You can wear them for different occasion n outfits. They are so lovely.

    ReplyDelete
  54. The black appears to cut your legs off at the ankle straps; awful:P Pewter Bronze has a elegant soft feel to it which brings beauty to your legs!

    ReplyDelete
  55. Are these pictures taken in the bathroom? Is that white round thing in the background the toilet bowl? LOL..

    ReplyDelete
  56. mm the black look so damn sexy though! Black :D

    or both haha.

    ReplyDelete
  57. They both look really good and I dont see a difference in terms of leg lengths. They dont do equally well at making you appear tall. Personally the pewter one is a lot more unique and hence wins my vote! Good luck Jen! Cheers, Kelly

  58. PEWTER!!
    theyre both pretty.

    ReplyDelete
  59. hmm, i'd say BLACK! black can match anything and gives you more of a "grounded" appearance, instead of a "floaty" one with lighter colored shoes. also, the pewter ones slightly blend into your skin color. the black ones really is edgy and elegant at the same time, and looks more expensive if you ask me. ;)

  60. where did you get that dress!!?? its beautiful!
