Are these shoes hideous?

[BounceBounceSplishSplash]

Hello All

Am returning to work soon-ish from ML. I used to wear high heels no problem but since DD has been born I've lost the ability to walk in them I ordered these online out of curiousity and they arrived today.

I envisage wearing them witj slim fitting black ankle grazer trousers. They might also possibly go with black opaques.

All my work clothes are still up in the attic so I've only tried them on with skinny jeans. They actually looked quite nice with ankle skinnies but I can't imagine I'll wear them with those.

Will I be thinking I look quite chic but people will be secretly sniggering thinking I look like Miss Marple?

Feel like I've lost my style mojo a bit since DD has been born so I would appreciate your thoughts. You can be brutally honest

Thanks

LOOK HARDER, LOVE (I assume we are talking about the Miss Marple ones).

Sorry but they are Thatcher/witch shoes!

'Thatcher witch shoes', good! That signals to everyone that OP is back from ML to kick ass.

😂 I hope I'm still able to Mirena

That's true mirena! I wouldn't mess with someone wearing those bad boys!

OP of course you are able, you wuss!

Gucci-esq was my first thought.

Like them!

I like both of them!

Nolottery "they lack any sort of sex appeal"

That's a factor for work shoes.....?!

Well they are definitely NOT fuck me shoes, so why wear heels if they're not? Flats all the way!

Destiny I don't wear heels because I want people to fuck me

I'm sure we all had a pair of these in the 90s... I remember the cool girls at school being allowed them.

Basically, burn them, they are hideous OP, sorry.

However at 5"10, I am a fan of flats, flats look great with skinny jeans or ankle grazing trousers.

Mooey these are 90s. Maggie Thatcher or the Queen Mum wouldn't have worn these ( I don't think I did either back in the day)

Mooey is right. They are 90s. I had a very similar pair, although no gold bit.

1st pair are truely vile, sorry.

I have no issue with either of them. It's all about context. The silver ones with three quarter length pale skinnier would look lovely. The black ones with work attire would look great. Have some confidence in your own taste!

I like both of your choices!! And those 90s shoes take me back - they would have been my absolute heart's desire for school :)

And Destiny - yeurgh! Way to spoil a chat about shoes

Destinysdaughter So you think any woman going to work in heels is wearing them for sex? Or is it just ALL women that wear heels are wearing them for sex? What a strange unhappy world you live in.

I quite like the Miss Marple ones, but I'm afraid I do not like the silver ones, imo the silver and white ones look far more aging than the granny chic Miss Marples!

Sorry, I've just caught up with the rest of the tread and I had the Miss Marple shoes in the 90s with a lower block hill, I wore them to work (in a supermarket) and loved them. That was when twin sets were trendy too.

Heel not hill!

I think that the silver ones are ok

I love them!

The shoes were returned this morning so the search for comfortable, walkable yet stylish granny chic Gucci-esque shoes continues
