What to wear on my feet with skinny jeans?

I have taken the plunge and bought M&S skinny jeans in a bright blue for summer. But, what to wear on my feet? Converse or similar? Heels. I am a tall size 14 in early 40s and want to avoid looking cheap and or trying to look like a teenager. Worried about on top too to cover wide arse. Advice welcome.

Flats, ballet pumps or flip flops. Converse ok but I feel a bit studenty when I wear this combo and I'm 41!

I'm guessing they are the colbolt blue skinnies. I have them and wear mine with gold, silver or nude ballet pumps depending on what I have on top. Nice with flip flops too.

Sandals, flip flops, boots, heels for nights out, ballet pumps (although Im not sure i can carry that off with my bum) etc. They go with lots of things.

Ballet pumps and flats ahoy! I just hope they don't make my bum look too big with small feet at the bottom and then legs getting wider and wider!

Agree, ballet pumps and flip flops look great but age 40 I'm still a fan of the converse look and my 14 and 16 y.o step daughters have been hugely complimentary when the bright skinnies and pump type converses come out. Think you can look funky and 40ish without looking studenty

I agree about the converse look! Think its great. And if i look like a student well i don't care!

I'm also debating this at the moment. My biggest problem is I'm a size 12. 5ft5 with size 8 feet. Ballet pumps and tbh, Converse all seem to lookj ridiculous on me with skinny jeans.
Any ideas if you have big feet? Or should I just be avoiding skinny jeans?
