should I buy these?

prostitute or chic?

I have found them cheaper at Nordstroms I think and there are a few other places that have them for even less, but I like the return policy of Free people so may just buy them from there. (As well as free shipping)...

But then, I am a size 14 and 5'5 so may not suit them at all, what do you think?

I am on the fence... I think you really have to see them on to see how they'd look to be honest!

I like the shape of them but the white stitching and the silver zip puts me off. However, if worn with the right outfit it could look ok. Maybe order and try them on, they look like they might sag at the ankles.

Do not like. At all.

I like them but think they would probably look best if you were taller, and slim of calf. I am neither btw - bit shorter than you, and absolutely could not pull these off. Do you really think they would be a good shape for you?

I am a size 12/14 and think i could get away with them but they are not my taste tbh.
I dont think they look tarty though unless you wear them with a mini skirt!

Don't like them. Or the colour.
I once mistakenly bought blue boots and they just didn't look right really. Ended up sending them to the charity shop.

Well, I like them! (Just bought a pair of over the knee boots so will stop looking.)

I think you can avoid the "tarty" associations as they are wedge rather than stilletto, suede rather than patent leather. (I'd personally wear with a short skirt and opaques, but maybe I look like a prostitute when I wear mine!)

I think you'd look like someone out of ABBA.

Up to you to decide whether that's a good or a bad thing.

I like them but not the colour.

Yeah, I only like them in Black. I think I'll buy them and if and when they arrive I'll post a picture of how they look on. They may not look good at all, but I do feel like they may have potential.
