its that time of year when I really struggle. In winter I love woolly tights & boots. In summer I love bare legs & sandals. But I really struggle in Spring. I have big feet (size 8) and am never confident wearing flat pumps or trainers, converse etc. I wear skinny jeans, skirts, dresses and want something funky to see me through to summer. Any ideas please?

I am wearing the fitflop converse-y things at the mo, last years sale in red suede. They are v v comfy and more flattering on my big wide feet than converse. No good with skirts though (imo).

Hello, sorry to gatecrash the thread but I am also looking at the converse dance as a solution to my boat foot, spring shoe, pregnant and won't be able to wear heels dilemma. Does anyone have th great/pink ones here? Are they browny like they appear in photos? Also do these blue/pink ones here actually have any pink on them? I can't get to an office store to check for myself! Thanks Thanks

ellan the grey & pink are def grey (have tried those on) the other ones i'm pretty sure only have pink on the inside.

I have the dark blue and red ones - seem to go with anything pretty much.

I am having this dilemma.

I saw quite a nice pair of tan loafers in Dune the other day, they were lovely soft leather. I haven't ordered them yet though...

My converse dance have just arrived. Have got the denimy blue ones as they were the only ones in size 8 on Amazon. I'm rather pleased with them - they look great with jeans....not sure about skirts tho. Plus v comfortable and not too flipper-like!
