Topshop had some but I think gone now...they were in the sale in January.

Sorry not to be more use, I keep seeing them too and haven't got any!

Topshop have them in again. Satin ones too. They are £28. Or you could just buy some gamba ones!

I saw them in TopShop as well. Would worry about them lasting and how comfortable they'd be though.

I got a pair of Bloch ballerina pumps at TKMaxx for £25 a couple of weeks ago Smile

Thank you so much everyone! The closest I can see are the salmon pumps from topshop...so will be off to my local store tomorrow to see if I can get some. Slightly off put by them being described as salmon :)

Topshop, I had some but they weren't very durable and didn't last long.

I don't do ballet pumps usually because they are not comfy, but the New Look ones are good!

The new look ones have lasted me quite well.
The gold ones longer than the cream, pretty obvious I guess.

The red NL ones are an especially nice shade as well. well worth getting for a bit of colour.

I got some in tesco for £8 - very thin and that pale pink colour of proper ballet shoes. I'm loving them.

Come on gibba! You are not too old if you avoid the pretty little girl theme... audrey hepburn wore them way past 44.

I got the £16 ones from topshop that look like proper ballet shoes. I wasn't expecting them to last long, but they have survived about two months, with lots of walking around and are still going strong, and I did find out (by accident) that you can wash them in the washing machine, and they come out alright.

M&S are doing lovely leather ones at the moment, only £19.50. I read about them on another thread here and now own both colours, black and silver. They don't come in half sizes but on advice from other thread I adjusted the drawstrings and use insoles. Perectly comfy, just wish they came in some other colours.
