Shoe hunts don't get tougher than this...

I have been after a pair of tan flats for MONTHS.

Someone on here found me these which are perfect, but the 8 is too small and they don't go any bigger. I am usually a 7.5 Confused and have never been too big for an 8. Am disproportionately furious.

I like these but they are the wrong colour and not leather/suede. I have also been mocked mercilessly for liking them. I remain defiant.

So, to sum up; I need:

-Leather or suede

-Size 8 (PROPER size 8; nothing from Schuh Angry)

-Tan

-Pointed toe. No cornish pasties please.

-Would like a nice detail like woven leather or gold trim or something

Budget up to £60ish

Please help!

If tan-coloured snakeskin would do, then these Autograph ones are nice and pointy.

No, I want tan I'm afraid.

Thanks for looking though Smile

tethersend · 17/05/2011 20:38

First of all, thanks all for looking; much appreciated.

cyb, the 8 in Schuh was a 41; in fit, more like a 40. And you have gone mad with those sandals.

I want them for work, some days I am out all day and need something flat.

And here's the thing. They need to be POINTED. I do not like round toed flats, I look better with points or almond-toes.

And they need to be leather- so that rules out Kate Kanzier. Although not so keen on those nevergoogle, as they are round toed.

I am aware that I am uber fussy.

I am aware that you will grow to hate me over the course of this thread.

But I am in desperate need. Desperate. Please don't give up on me...
