Hopefully pic will show.
link Landsend Sandals.
Maybe not the most exciting but they are very comfy and I reckon quite versatile?

They look fine.

Not remarkable in any way.

Which I guess is what you were aiming for.

ChaChaChaCh4nges · 18/05/2017 21:37

They look like something a woman in her sixties would wear.

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 18/05/2017 21:39

cha maybe the OP IS in her 60s. Personally I think they are rather nice and I am not near my 60s. Rude!

Epictantrum · 18/05/2017 21:39

I'm have no fashion sense whatsoever and wanted to check that the general consensus wasn't that they were hideous or completely frumpy (for a 40 year old as a wedding guest who can't wear high heels without breaking an ankle...quite literally).

I suppose that was what I was worried about...a bit old for me? I'm so used to wearing trainers that my judgement is off.

If you wear them, nobody will notice them. They will not remember what shoes you were wearing. Their eyes will slide right past.

Epictantrum · 18/05/2017 21:43

Ha! Not a glowing recommendation, but I'll take it given my large ungainly feet, could probably do with wearing a disguise.

Paint your nails and have fun!

heateallthebuns · 18/05/2017 22:00

I don't like them sorry. I think you could find something nicer and still comfortable.

blue2014 · 18/05/2017 22:05

Oh god no, they're awful, which is fine if you don't care and just want comfort but they don't even look comfy!

Sorry

heateallthebuns · 18/05/2017 22:10

How about these:

Iamastonished · 18/05/2017 22:14

Those are quite high for someone who can't wear heels heatall. I doubt if I could wear shoes like that all day unless I spent most of it sitting down.

heateallthebuns · 18/05/2017 22:17

How bout these? They're much lower!

Monsoon/Accessorize have some much nicer (and much less frumpy!) nude wedges! Take a look!

lorelairoryemily · 18/05/2017 22:21

Oh god they're awful. Please don't wear them to a wedding. Or anywhere.

Justdontgetitatall · 18/05/2017 22:23

As I was scrolling, my finger covered the word Wedges... ShockConfusedHmm

heateallthebuns · 18/05/2017 22:26

What are they to go with?

heateallthebuns · 18/05/2017 22:31

Good call darth!

MrsMarigold · 18/05/2017 22:42

I think they are fine, I got a similar pair in red patent, but with a thinner strap at the front from Hobbs ( a few years ago) and everyone compliments them, I have also walked hundreds of miles in them.

Out2pasture · 18/05/2017 23:16

I prefer the landend ones to the others.
I think chunky ankle straps cut people off half way.
if the wedding is at a garden venue wedges are far better than any heel.
nothing wrong with them not being remarkable.

AnotheBloodyChinHair · 19/05/2017 06:29

They're horrible. Plus LandsEnd shoes are always even worse in the flesh.

Okite · 19/05/2017 06:35

If you don't ever wear heels, don't wear heels, seriously. Find a nice flat pair of shoes or sandals instead and enjoy the day without uncomfortable/painful feet.
