I've just read this and really hope shoe fashion designers will take on board that not everybody who likes fashion/clothes wants to totter around in high heels.

I'm saying that as somebody who mostly wears flat during the daytime but also as somebody who never feels dressed up unless I'm wearing heels. I'm really hoping this mindset will change.

I love heels sometimes but flats can be great, too. I think there is more choice now, but perhaps this is because I'm no longer scared to try out something new, or different like when i was in my 20s?

But that first photo in the link, poor woman looks like she's got the flu, flats or heels, she looks like she needs a rest!!

I think the 'flu look' is very deliberate. She likes the waif look :)

Now if only she would wear dresses and skirts with flats so we can see what the fashion big names think what looks well with them apart from boots

There are rumours she and DB have ended their marriage in all but name (something I believe probably happened a very long time ago) if the look isn't deliberate.

I agree. Heels are over. You might like the En Brogue blog.

I don't know why but she annoys me. What's with the huge jumpers and sleeves over her hands. It just to add to the speculation that she no longer wears a ring?

Sheusedtobesomeonelse · 25/02/2016 16:22

I have no particular thoughts about her but - and here i turn into my mother- stand up straight woman!!

A blog about brogues?? Am off to read..

OMG am completely Shock that their marriage could be a sham!

I think it's a good look, even with the giant sweater, but only one that would work on a slim, petite person.

vicky B is the poster girl for why fugly heels are such a bad idea. They don't even look good; look at the twisted and strained posture in the last photo.

pity she can't find clothes to fit though. Or maybe the lightbulb has gone in the bedroom. Nice trainers!

I actually quite like VB, she seems to have grown into herself as she's got older. I love those oversized sleeves too. Gutted I missed this version from Other Stories in the sales.

V surprised she closed her show in Stan Smiths though, thought their moment had passed?

As a cold body who can't wear heels, I must say I am loving her look Grin

Flat shoes and jumpers that leave little more than eyes exposed? What's not to like?
