Workwear chatty thread Part 2

[BelindaAllWorkedOut]

Let's talk workwear. Maybe a little bit of non workwear fashion chat, too.

My blog is at theworkwearedit.com but our chat goes above and beyond that.

If there is more money to spend, I've always fancied a Max Mara coat, too.

I'm totally sold on pointed flats if it's flats you want. I won't be buying ballerinas again, I don't think. I have slippers, but they are too hot for summer.

I know, it's not at all sensible. I only have one posh bag but it's an everyday bag not a work one.

Not sure what the attraction is really, probably all marketing.

Yes! I love pointed flats. My aldo ones have died and I'm desperate for more. They were perfect, pointed, slight hidden wedge a la lanvin. And very comfy.

Aldo are doing a pointed flat again this season (I saw them this evening, and the style starts w C [forgetful]), but they are totally flat - no wedge.

I keep umming and ahhing over whether to get an expensive bag. I just not sure it's worth it to me, although Anya's Gracie still stops me in my tracks.

I have the mini Gracie Belinda, it's lovely.

I'm definitely in the market for a pointy flat.

I've heard there are some good ones at Matalan, but I have to drive a bit to get to one.

I'm not in the market for a pointy flat. Ankles too SKINY. Will look like twig woman

I'd love a maxmara coat. I obsessively stalk eBay for the perfect one that I can get at a steal. I still haven't found it though .

Yep. I look awful in pointy shoes too. Skinny ankles, little feet, big boobs, pointy shoes - like a cherry on a cocktail stick.

Remus same here too spindly

I have skinny ankles, thin legs, long feet. But what flat shoe IS going to look ideal w that combo?

A chunky one? Hey Remus. Have the gap skinny cargos on today. With flip flops. ;)

I think I look best in heels, but that's just not always practical. Damn the nerve endings in my feet!!!

Loafer slipper type don't have the same chicken effect ime.

I look best in boots or scrappy flats

I wear slippers with trousers, but prefer other, lower cut flats for when I wear knee length skirts. I used to wear round toe flats, but now I prefer pointed flats. No wonder I have so many shoes, which is actually an achievement given how fussy I am .

I do wear round toe flats but they look a bit dated at the moment. Almond toes might be a good compromise.

Just bought mega high Autograph suede shoes. Can't find online but v nice.

oh come ON remers
Describe

Erm. Very high. Suede. Black. Tiny leather triangle bit at the back. Nice.

i might wheel out the cage shoes ce soir

Get you lot with your skinny ankles. I have wide feet with lovely bunions. Shoes in general are a challenge, so I don't even go near narrow-foot places like Zara. I have no idea if pointy flats will work on me, but worth a try.

Heels for work, though. It doesn't feel right to be in the office in flat shoes.
