I quite like them, although I'm sure I quite dislike them too. Although they're not going to break the bank if I keep them and don't wear them, what do you think?

Sorry, they are hideous.

They're not to my taste but I don't dislike them. I think they'd look alright with jeans

Liberace called, he wants his shoes back.

Will your feet not be a bit cold?

I'm not keen. They look like slippers

Erm, yes. They are hideous. Not exactly practical for this time of year either.

I really love them want them myself! They're very stylish and on trend.

I think it would depend on how big your feet are.

I thought as much. I'm 26 and my usual is jeans, heeled ankle boots and a t-shirt, blouse, jumper of sorts. I was hoping I could look like this.

Backless shoes are on trend as are floral/embroidered - combine together and they look like granny slippers and very few could look stylish in them

I'm a size 6 shoe.

Very fashion forward, almost all the street style photos from fashion week featured shoes like this. I really like mules and these are the sort of thing I would expect to see on Alexa Chung, Olivia Palermo et al. If you like them and can wear them with confidence then do it!

That woman also looks a bit silly.

Send them back.

Couldn't walk in them myself, but I like them.

Very trendy but I am not a fan of the colour etc. They look very "old man" smoking slippers Grin

They look like they are covered in lichen. I quite like them.

Hideous and I don't think the woman in the second pic pulls backless shoes of either. Far too much like slippers for me. And completely pointless at this time of year.

They look like Hugh Heffners spare pair.

For goodness sake, if you like them, surely that's what counts?

(I think they look lovely!)
