Generally I don't wear heels but on some occasions I feel they are required.

I need a pair of antique gold / bronze or red or coraly colour cute comfy low heels.

Any ideas people? PLEASE help I'm slightly at my wits end here 😜😜😜

Irregular choice shoes are wonderful.

On the very odd occasion I wear heels I borrow my DDS Cuban heel dance shoes.

I don't find heels ever comfortable, but professional dance shoes come close.

Carvela does some nice comfortable low heels. I bought them in House of Fraser although I'm never shopping in HoF again as my gift card is defunct since the takeover

I've got a really comfy pair from debut at Debenhams. They were £30 and are a blush pink/gold colour.

I can't wear heels at the moment because my feet are buggered, but I have these from Hotter, and they are (were, before my injuries) SO comfy. And they make them in a variety of colours.

I was also going to suggest professional dance shoes. On the rare occasions that high heels are required and I'm not actually dancing I use those. I've stuck stick-on soles on the bottom of one particularly glitzy pair to make them suitable for brief walking on pavements.

You can get incredibly cheap chinese knock off ones. They're crap (more than crap) for actual dancing but make very good 'going out' heels. Look at these for example (you can get much cheaper) - they don't look like dance shoes and you can even choose your own heel height:

I was going to say carvela too.

Or anything that supports the foot really is better than a more "open" shoe.

Wedges can be comfy too.

Came on to say Irregular Choice but see it was the first answer. I hardly ever do heels but these are genuinely comfy when i do.

I have something along the lines of the above which is surprisingly comfortable.

These teal low heels from Evans are £10 but they're extra wide

I bought these silver wedge low heel shoes from Debenham's debut for a wedding, they're pretty and comfortable.

Third vote for Irregular Choice, and when you aren't wearing them you can just gaze at them.

Another vote for debut shoes, sold in Debenhams. Not great at wearing heels myself and this brand is one of the only ones that I am comfortable in all day.

Try shoes that have a slight platform on the sole & a chunky rather than stiletto heel.

I got a pair of sandals from new look like this that I wear with my party dresses.

They aren't the most elegant looking heels but I can walk & dance in them without pain!

Clark’s shoes are usually comfortable if they do any dressy shoes?

I have some heels from jones the boot maker that are wonderfully comfortable. Or try orthopaedic brands.

Diana ferrari is also really good but not sure if you can get them in Britain.

I personally find Irregular Choice shoes highly uncomfortable, which is disappointing as I own a couple of pairs and would love to wear them more often.

The most comfortable heels I’ve ever had were my wedding Jimmy Choos - bliss - but I can’t spend that normally.

Recently I’ve found Dune and LKBennet to be less painful than most.

i dont see how anything that changes your centre of gravity and makes you take your whole weight on the balls of your foot can ever be truly comfortable. They can be tolerable at best.
