would you let an 8yo wear these to a party?

They would look really nice with her outfit but I am old school and do not normally do high heels in kids.

What is the concensus now, will I face a barrage of disapproving looks from other mums if she wears them?

They are top row, second from left

I didn't realise that sort of thing was still fashionable. They are nasty (although saying that, DD would probably give a kidney to own a pair)

If you wait long enough you'll always find one...

Beyond awful.
At any age, but at 8, against the law!

I'll add another no, just so there is no ambiguity op

When I clicked on the link, the tab said 'cheap girls party shoes'.

They do look a little as if they are meant for 'cheap girls', imho. Sorry!

There are such pretty shoes around for 8 year-olds, so I wouldn't choose these ugly old clompers!

I had a pair of Mary Janes but I wasn't allowed the "cool" ones with the key in the sole. How I would've traded my siblings off for a pair of those.

I got Dr. Martin ones, which were no where near as cool. Still they last for about 5 years, so job well done!

They are all a bit granny on a night out. Would she really want to wear such fugly shoes.

I had a pair with the key in the soles.

They were called secret garden from what I can remember.

Going against most people here but if it was just as a one off and the DD really wanted to wear them I would let her TBH.

I can't believe anyone would want to buy their 7 or 8yr olds high heels. There's plenty of time for adult shoes when they're adults surely?

I also think 8 is a bit young to wear any kind of heel. And they are particularly ugly shoes! However, I agree that both (cheaper) pairs with the sequins (especially far right, bottom row) are really pretty for a party!

Slut shoes!

Those look an awful lot like stripper shoes.

The heel is not MASSIVELY too high for a one off, but the style is inappropriate.

high heels on pre teens are horrible

Yeah Secret Garden from Clarkes.

Gosh I envy you.

No. My dd (7) keeps asking for similar things, and i tell her that flats are better for growing feet and ballet pumps are very 'in'!

Not had any major strops yet!

I did see a little girl, about 3-4y, in a pair of red spotted heels recently. Lovely shoes but just wrong on a little girl.

They look cheaply made and are too tarty looking for an 8 yr old. NO.

I do not see why not?

I would for a party ,yes

No, because they are vile.

absolutely not

No, they're too high and not practical. How is she supposed to run and jump and play in those?

No.
Heels too high, style too adult. Just not children's shoes. And horrid.

I think she would struggle to walk in them properly!

I remember being desperate to wear heels, and when I was 13 my mum caved in and bought me a pair of platforms (this was way back when the Spice Girls were coll ) and I walked like Bambi for days!

I agree with the others who say the ones underneath with the T-bar are prettier.

All those shoes are hugely offending me, they are a crime against style surely?
