I lik these shoes but have been told they are granny shoes...

[TrillianAstra]

These ones.

I want some purple shoes, closed toe, with a heel that is bigger than 1sqcm when it hits the ground. The heel can be high, but it cannot be narrow.

So what's wrong with these ones? They're cheap too.

Trills, but they are like granny shoes..

They look quite nice and classic.

I only wear trainers or non-fashionalble shoes (for work)

I can see why people think they may be granny stylee but I don't necessarily think that is a bad thing, in fact I think they would be quite nice with dresses.

My MIL would like those. She is 70

Don't like 'em sorry

If they are granny shoes then help me!

Are all shoes with non-stiletto heels granny shoes? In that case tough, I will have to have granny shoes. Or is there some magical kind of shoe that is not granny?

I don't like them, but they are not terrible.

I still fear hell if it helps...

I have never ever seen a pair of shoes in M&S that are not grannytastic.

I don't think they'd be Granny-ish if you wore them with skinny jeans, fish-nets or purple tights and funked them up.

I'm with you on your heel quest!

They are a bit Granny-goes-to-a-wedding. But then my personal style is a bit Granny-goes-to-a-wedding.

I like them in purple.

In that case i must be a granny then .

i quite like them

It depends where you plan to wear them.

OK for a job interview.

Not OK to wear with a long skirt on the school run. Why do some people dress like that?

So if I wear coloured or patterned tights I'm allowed?

I'm with you on the quest for not teeny narrow heels
but I'm afriad I think we are going to be stuck with granny shoes

I wouldn't ever wear heels with a long skirt anyway Lynette - and I don't have a school run.

I think coloured shoes demand coloured tights. Just ditch the Nude 15 deniers.

hmm grannyish.
With certain outfits I could see them working.
I wouldnt wear them with a skirt.

horrid

I bought a pair of purple satin slingback peeptoes the other day - slight platform and a 5 inch heel that was chunky not skinny - and I can walk in them, too.

Sorry, not much help, just needed to share. They were only £19 in a vintage shop, too.

no no no no no no no no

these

The only purple shoes I can find which I like are these and these

I don't think I'm helping TBH.

Whats wrong with them? They are cheap to!!

YES THEY LOOK IT!!!!!

Bella those are stilettos. That is not what I asked for.

Tethers the brogue thingys are horrid, and the South ones are more grannyish than my initial ones I think.

AH, you can always rely on MN for a bit of abuse
