I'd say if you're having a wobble then don't buy them.

The heel shape reminds me a bit of the sort of thing I'd wear in the 90s, so it'd be a no from me. But then you might look at what I wear and hate it, so that's no guide really.

They are not hideous, but do look rather 90's I think.

Thank you ladies. I panicked and bought them . I've a night out coming up this Saturday and need black heels that dont look like they'll cripple me. I've lost my way a bit I think fashion wise, finding it hard to judge what's nice and what's dodge.
Sure at least I can return them.. [

Are you in your 40's? That would explain the lure of the 90's shape

They do indeed look like they'd we walkable in though, so there is that.

Me too!

Large gold hoop earrings have been my default 'sexy' look since then, and I was horrified to read that they'd come back into fashion, never having realised they'd gone out!

What's more important is if you feel good in them. If not, back they go.

Ha ha ha ha. They are 1970s. I wore shoes like that in 1973. It was my first act of rebellion at 14, as my mum had always made me wear sensible shoes until then.

I still wear the gold hoop earrings. I feel like a sexy gypsy in them! [would not admit this in RL!]

Sexy gypsy, brilliant!

Well it's not looking good for the shoes is it!

I quite like the tan version. They'd go with black, would be good for summer and are more 70s than 90's, but don't want to encourage multiple purchases!
