if you want to cover your toes and heels why not wear a light mocassin or loafer type shoe

Ambrosius · 28/03/2012 08:53

MadameMessy · 28/03/2012 08:55

My mam wouldn't wear them. Sorry.
I think you should keep looking :)

FriggFRIGG · 28/03/2012 08:55

I just really hate feet...that sounds weird....

OP posts:
FriggFRIGG · 28/03/2012 08:59

I have long fingery toes...and dodgy ankles,so I need support,I hate that thwacking sound flip flops make.

And my mother always used to wear sandles with awful dirty thick skin on her heels,and the idea of it makes me

I had a good pair from Next last year...they were brown leather and very plain....they covered the bulk of my toes up...your heels shouldn't need hiding...just get working on them! Get a ped egg or simialar and soem Scholl cracked heel balm....follow the instructions and it works within a fw days!

There are loads of sandals out there which are open but dont show much toe.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 28/03/2012 09:07

I like these, OP! You're young enough Envy that I think they'll look cool rather than gimmerish.

BranchingOut · 28/03/2012 09:08

Well, it sounds as if they would meet your needs so why not?!
Sod the style mafia.

ggirltwin2pinot · 28/03/2012 09:09

these are similar but must be aimed at younger peeps as topshop
i'm not keen but they fulfill your criteria which btw I think you need to address Smile

MagsAloof · 28/03/2012 09:11

They are bad.

Alternatives: those moccasin style loafers, a ballet flat, slim converse shoes or the Topshop Macarena which only has minimal toe-show.

FriggFRIGG · 28/03/2012 09:11

Hurray! I'm not alone! Grin

You see,I thought I could make them look cool....maybe I'm deluded...

OP posts:
AwkwardMary · 28/03/2012 09:12

Yes I reckon those ones ggirl linked to would only look good on a 16 year old who was wearing them in an ironic way...they look like orthopaedic sandals!

LeMousquetaireAnonyme · 28/03/2012 09:12

those look younger in style.

FriggFRIGG · 28/03/2012 09:13

I refuse to buy top shop shoes after a pair of mine fell apart after a week ,and I was told they were "not meant for outdoor use" as they are "only fashion shoes" Confused

OP posts:
FriggFRIGG · 28/03/2012 09:14

Oh,I quite like those leMous

LeMousquetaireAnonyme · 28/03/2012 09:15

ggirl you must be very young, I am old and remember when only my great grand dad and nuns were wearing those!

ggirltwin2pinot · 28/03/2012 09:16

LeMousquetaireAnonyme-god those are vile!
they look like something my 76yr old mum would pick up and coo over

ggirltwin2pinot · 28/03/2012 09:17

arf-i did say they weren't my taste , just fulfill friggs criteria..i think they're hideous

ggirltwin2pinot · 28/03/2012 09:17

I am v old
