Shoes and skinny jeans help!

I have invested in 2 pairs of skinny jeans but what shoes??? I need comfort but also want to continue the sexy look of the skinny jeans. I walk a fair bit, hence the comfort so no heels. I have knee high boots and some pumps already. Was looking at these,

Don't want to fork out for Converse.

I'm sure they are very comfortable but I don't think they will give a sexy look Grin!

These are very similar to Converse. I had sore feet out shopping at the weekend so bought these to change into. They were only £9.99 in store though, but more colour choices online.

Umm,it's good you don't want to fork out for converse.Converse,pumps,canvass,trainers etc ARE NOT SEXY and will not 'continue the sexy look'!!!

Since when have Converse/Ballet Pumps/Trainers been Sexy?

I only ever wear stiletto heeled pumps with Skinny Jeans. However since I am pregnant I do sometimes wear a good quality loafer not sexy but still chic and fashionable.

M and M direct usually have cheap Converse agree they aren't sexy though

sharond101 · 11/03/2014 21:45

Ok so maybe sexy isn't the right word. Just properly dressed I suppose rather than trainers and jogger bottoms that I normally wear.

If you do a lot of walking then you will need some footwear that support your feet, so the FitFlop trainers are probably going to fit the bill more than the other shoes mentioned on here. I like the look of the Dunlops as well. I am a fan of Sketchers Go Walk, which are not in the least bit sexy, but are more comfortable than my slippers.

Ballet pumps look pretty but are useless for walking any kind of distance in and stilettos heels are eye wateringly uncomfortable and very impractical.
