Do you think these shoes are horrendous?

[BadMoodBoard]

I don't know what it is about me but I can't wear heels. Despite being in my late 40s, somehow I look like a kid wearing her mum's shoes. Flats don't look good on me because I am only 5.1". I am a size 10, probably a little podgy now after the excesses of the last few weeks, and I just look silly in delicate shoes. I pretty much wear boots all the time but I like wearing ankle trousers, and boots don't look good with those. I am therefore looking for a shoe that gives me height, but without looking like I'm wearing high heels. Would welcome opinions on these: www.amazon.co.uk/Fly-London-Yaz-Mousse-Womens/dp/B00J9C1Y6Y/ref=sr_1_3?psc=1&keywords=fly%2Blondon%2Byaz&th=1&tag=mumsnetforum-21&ie=UTF8&qid=1547567642&sr=8-3

I am 47 and no way would I wear them. I am 5'4, never wear heels, ankle boots with a tiny heel - not quite flat.
Or Uggs!!

I sense you're tempted to buy those shoes April

Oh ... no. Just no. Sorry.

No OP, they are not nice

Clarks generally have some nice ones which I think are similar to what you're looking for. I'm not keen on the fly ones.

Oh no, they are horrid.

These? Better? [hopeful]

Not keen. Have you looked at Hotter's website? They have some comfy shoes with a bit of a heel??

Horrid!

Both awful, sorry.

Second pair not better either.

Agree with PP, check Hotters!

I think they’re a funky style, especially the second pair! I’d wear them! If you like them then go for it!

i'm only 5'2 but i cant be arsed with heels or wedges. i wear brogues, i have some lovely deep red ones and some platinum coloured.

I'm similar age, height and weight to you (might be slightly kidding myself there...) and I wear boots or trainers - so trainers with ankle grazer style trousers.

I came on to say wedge heels could work. But I don't like the ones you linked to sorry.

They’re both awful, sorry!

I wear ankle boots with ankle trousers all the time. What sort of boots are you wearing?

I hate Fly London shoes/boots sorry OP however they are very popular where I live. I have just bought these www3.next.co.uk/g5227 They are lovely in to and yes they are quite delicate but they are boots

ginger your link doesn't work for me

I can't wear trainers at work and I do need to bump up my height a bit whilst being able to walk comfortably, hence the high wedges. Anyone seen anything suitable?

I have taken a look at hotter shoes and they're pretty horrific

The two you have linked are erm lacking in visual appeal, don't look waterproof and the price !! £92 for those?

But like PP I wear ankle boots with a low block heel.

1hello I like the first pair but it's much too low, I'd like 6 cm height. The second pair won't solve my dilemma, I can't wear boots like that with ankle grazers as my legs are not long enough to accommodate both an ankle boot and an ankle trouser.

OMG they are vile!! Mid 40's not fashion guru!!

They're platform wedges!

What about normal wedges like these

I can't wear heels either but will wear a nice wedge.

Grim.

I can tell how undecided you all all
