orla kiely/clarks shoe range, opinions please...

[nipersvest]

what do you think?

i like some, not all, and am tempted by these in particular, although the other day they were £80 not £90

just not sure i'd get a lot of wear out of them, for £90 shoes, i'd need to love them and wear them lots.

They are nice.

But expensive for shoes with synthetic lining.

Wow!

They are the ugliest shoes I have ever laid eyes on... Really

Now there speaks a woman who's never browsed the Irregular Choice website.

I LOVE them. The sandals are very 40s! I really want these - they're a spring green not a winter green but green shoes are so hard to find that I'm going to risk that anyway.

Also delighted to have some non-boring shoes on the high street.

Loathe OK and loathe Clark's so they're never going to do it for me! Even the more bearable ones design wise are ruined for me by her awful cutesy and clapped-out print .

Agree with with andtwobits - Ugly. Clumpy. Kitsch.

Those green sandals are the only thing I like at all, but I do actually like then properly

They are, without exception, fuckin orrible

They're awful. She should stick to cake tins.

Oh my word they are £100!!! just because they have a designer "name" on them. Do people actually enjoy being ripped off??

Clarkes shoes are shite and they should never be in that price bracket!

I remember these from the first time round and I didn't like them then.

It's not just because they're Clark's, they would be Godawful whatever brand they were for.

LEM not sure I'd pay that much for them but I genuinely like them. It's not a rip-off surely if I like them? Wouldn't care if they had a designer name attached or not.

Lots of people here must like some really boring shoes

i like them and I'm NOT a fan of hers. and I hate Clarks!

well, i've been deliberating over these since last week, turns out dh went ahead and ordered the mustard coloured ones for me as a gift (we've had a really tough week and i've done a huge amount to support my mil and nephew through a rather traumatic experience).

not worn them yet as weather is so wet and it's rather muddy outside!

The mustard ones are lovely dd has them, I think they are fab

Had high hopes when I found out about this collection but am disappointed. A friend has bought 2 pairs so I've seen them in the flesh as well as online.
I find them a bit ugly. Too much white leather. And they just wouldn't match with anything I wear.
I would've loved some tan or navy leather block heeled courts or ankle boots with the punched leather design.
