They look quite narrow. If you have good feet, go for it.

Yep those are definitely old lady shoes. My nana would've wore those if she was still here!

Old ladies (like me) don't generally wear metallic shoes in daytime, so you'd be quite safe in these.

I don't think they are old lady. I like them. Maybe I'm an old lady though.

It's the shiny buttons that are strange, if you removed them it wouldn't be so bad. What about these from Clarks

The sort my mum would wear and she's over 60. I'm in my 30's and wouldn't so depends on your age.

I have to agree, they're not good. if you need a casual smart type sandal, what about something like this from Office?

Still reserved without being old lady.

They are both terrible. Sorry OP. Both appear to have been designed to take you from the afternoon tea dance on board a P&O cruise to dinner at the captain's table. In other words, they have been designed for the over-65 woman who wants to look a bit 'jazzy'.
