Do we like these Vivienne Westwood shoes?

Been hanging my nose over them for a while.
I'm thinking wearing them with skinny trousers at work or skinny jeans for casual.
Or will I be chavvy?!?!

Sorry i think they look really cheap and a bit plasticy. Are they that jelly shoe material? How much are they?

BusterGonad · 18/03/2017 18:38

They do lean to the chavy side of the spectrum!

RemusLupinsChristmasMovie · 18/03/2017 18:39

Am a big Viv fan, but always think those shoes would be a bit erm...sweaty. I don't hate them; just can't imagine them feeling all that nice.

CurlsLDN · 18/03/2017 18:44

I think they've been around for years and don't look very stylish these days

BounceBounceSplishSplash · 18/03/2017 18:59

No, they're cheap plastic jelly shoes that will make your feet sweat and most likely cut them to shreds. I think they had their moment maybe about 10 years ot so ago.

Isobela · 18/03/2017 19:10

They are about £100. I know what you are saying about cheap looking but I just thought they could pass for more casual wear.

I was in 2 minds anyway so grateful for the comments :)

Are these the Melissa ones? I tried some on years ago and they were awful. Really disappointed as they were probably the only pair of VW shoes I'll ever be able to afford Envy

Isobela · 18/03/2017 19:19

Yes Melissa. Why were they awful? The fit or style?

The fit

skippythebushkangarootoo · 18/03/2017 19:20

I had some and they squished my toes and rubbed 🙈

ScoobyDoosTinklyLaugh · 18/03/2017 19:22

I had a pair similar to these years ago and they made my feet dead sweaty and cut my feet up to shit. They were just about okay if I was wearing tights. Also I really like Viv W but I find the stuff with massive orbs on tacky.

flossyfloss · 18/03/2017 19:28

My 16 year old had them, they're nice but are definitely jelly material

barefoofdoctor · 18/03/2017 19:31

I like them. They are/were cheap on brandalley recently. Very cute!

RiverdaleJughead · 18/03/2017 19:50

I have the heeled Viv version of these plastic shoes - they smell amazing, but i got mine when i was 15 so not so much anymore. THE SWEAT ... your feet sweat, and these collect that sweat. It doesnt soak in, you take your shoe off and there is water pooled in the shoe and your feet are WET ...avoid avoid avoid.
Maybe try Tory Burch for that style?

AmserGwin · 18/03/2017 20:09

No they look like they cost about £6. I have shoes that cost £6 that look better than these

CaoNiMartacus · 18/03/2017 20:10

I would totally brave the sweat and pain for those. I love Vivienne W. I think you could de-chav (feel a bit bad saying that!) them if you wore them with black tights or a "posh" outfit.

MumBod · 18/03/2017 20:18

YY to the sweat. I had a heeled pair too. Unwearable.

Samsbakery · 18/03/2017 21:19

I've got the black ones and I love them!

I wear them for work with black tights and a pencil skirt or with navy or black slim/skinny cropped trousers, get loads of compliments and no sweating issues, they're so comfy, feels like I've got my slippers on.

Isobela · 18/03/2017 22:26

Yay Sam, finally a positive vote :)

I have some. They are super comfy.

crapfatbanana · 18/03/2017 22:31

I thought they were going to be some sexy and flamboyant tartan heels.

These are quite boring for Vivienne Westwood. If you want plastic flatties get some from Asda or Primark and save your money.
