I love these. Anyone know who does a good range. Saw a lovely silver glittery pair by french sole but tres expensive.

Office has some gorgeous ones in silver, gold and red (there are two types - these are the softer, wider ones) for 14.99. But I'd get a move on as I think they're selling out of the silver ones fast.

I bought a pair two weeks ago and have barely had them off my feet.

they are shit if you have fat ankles, sorry but they are, you need a balletic pose to carry them off, otherwiwise you look like an upside down milk bottle

agree ff

I saw a gorgeous gold quilted(Chanel stylee)pair on a gorgeous sylph-like Japanese girl yesterday. Actually it was in Kensington so they probably were Chanel! But agree about needing the skinny ankles.

I brought some white ones but they are so uncomfortable i have hardley worn them at all.

Primark have a few different pairs for £6 and they are really nice.

nutcracker · 27/05/2006 10:26

Oh i'll have to go to Primark, haven't been for ages and ages.

French sole are very good - you can order on line or there is a fab shop in Chelsea. Cheaper ones in Accessorise and Oasis.

Thank you. Well I don't have skinny ankles but I was going to wear them with Jeans anyway so not much of ankle showing. I think I will get the French Sole ones even though they are £65 as they are the nicest I've seen and look comfortable.

Thank you, but I wanted soft leather as my feet swell when it's hot. Accessorize ones are probably synthetic aren't they?
