shoes, help me...

[misdee]

i have a 'do' this weekend, and have a nice outfit, (not too fancy, but smart) but the trousers are about 1ich too long. i can either take up the trousers, or get some high shoes.

trouble is high heels kill my feet. i cannot walk in them, and end up kicking them off.

i need soemthing more 'plat-formy' that kitten heel.

anyone got any ideas?

budget is about £30 only.

[bundle]

have you looked on the M&S website? they have footglove shoes which are a lot comfier than standard ones and are fairly cheap too

[bundle]

warning - some of them v grannyish!

[jeangenie]

next do some nice ones which are dead comfy too, will look for link

[jeangenie]

called sole reviver - here is one version they do a few . I have a pair and I can never manage heels, I swear by them

like footglove but a little less grannyish imho

[misdee]

they look nice jeangenie,. but my problems is the heel being so mucxh higher than the toes. they would kill my feet

[bundle]

[misdee]

[jeangenie]

there are a lot of nice, lowish per una wedge ones around the ones bundle posted too

ikwym re: high heels being a killer. i mainly stay in flats but you have to have heels for some clothes

[misdee]

exactly. i found a lovely pair in tesco, but tried them on and just walkign down the aisle with thme on killed my feet.

am wondering about those gel pad things? i shouldnt be on my feet too much as am face painting as well for part of the night.

[GreatAuntieWurly]

buy a pair of these and tuck your trousers in

[misdee]

lol wurly. they are the sensible option for this weather

[jeangenie]

oooh yes, gel pads - why didn't I think to mention those - they are FAB - have revolutionised my relationship with high heels. revolutionised it ladies

[misdee]

do they really make that much of a difference?

will it stop that burning feeling in my feet?

[jeangenie]

yep yep yep yep yep yep yep it will

[misdee]

ooo might get some and tryu the tesco ones again then

[nailpolish]

which bit of your foot hurts when you wear the shoes, misdee>? they shouldnt hurt just walking down a tesco dreel....

why not go to a proper shoe shop with proerly trained fitters

[misdee]

bottom of my feet np.

i really dont do heels at all. its just too much pressure on my little tooties.

i detest shoe shopping.

[nailpolish]

i think platform wedges are best in that case
with some gel thingys

and a double gin when you arrive at 'do'

[nailpolish]

sole reviver wedges

sole reviver really are comfy shoes. and with the gel thingy you should be ok

[jeangenie]

these are the sole revivers I have (except in brown) and thay are fabbo comfy, even without gels

[nappyaddict]

[bundle]

[misdee]

well i ended up in baytrading (i think) and theie dolcis shoe section is going, so loads of stuff in teh sale. i ended up with a pair of high wedges thingies for £10. and bought some party feet gel pads.

quite comfty, but am 'breaking' them in a bit before saturday night, by wearing them round the house. they dont really go with my casual jeans though lol.
