I can’t decide if these shoes are amazing or 70 year old on a cruise ship hideous. Help!

Erm. The latter for me but if you like them that's all that matters.

northernsouljunket · 16/02/2019 18:08

I’m afraid you are very hormonal!

nancybelle · 16/02/2019 18:09

Does that mean good or bad? Smiling lots in appreciation or laughing at the hideousness?

I usually like River Island but not those shoes!

If hormones makes you like those shoes im glad I’m menopausal.

Sorry.

Looks like some Liberace's boudoir slippers have escaped from a charity warehouse.

I'm laughing AND pointing. Sorry, OP but they're fucking gruesome!

TwitterLovesMAPs · 16/02/2019 18:12

Lol at the thread title. I know exactly what you mean.

Um, I’d wait until after your period and see if you still like them.

MrsSchadenfreude · 16/02/2019 18:12

Luckily they are out of stock...!

Snowymint · 16/02/2019 18:12

Grin keep looking! You can find better!

buckingfrolicks · 16/02/2019 18:14

Look OP I have no taste, none, and even I can tell you with confidence that those shoes are vile.

lalaloopyhead · 16/02/2019 18:14

I think they are rather stylish. I'm short though so they would look dreadful on my stumpy legs..I think slim ankles would be a must!

nancybelle · 16/02/2019 18:16

Haha ok, I’ll unfavourite them. Bit gutted as I hoped I would be a style icon in the rather than a laughing stock. Ok, back to the drawing board. Thanks everyone, you have saved me a public shaming.

I have a pair of Dune blue suede mules, the ones that are Gucci dupes and I love them. I wouldn't wear cruise ship gold though.

OMG! Why did I click on the link?

Now I am going to be plagued by images of blinged out mule atrocities.

CharminglyGawky · 16/02/2019 18:34

I think my Gran has some very very similar, and she goes on cruises! Buts she is late 80's not 70, my aunt is 70 and she would not touch them!

DorothyZbornak · 16/02/2019 18:38

They're the sort of thing that Jessica Fletcher might wear when she's feeling 'casual but dressy'.

Racheyg · 16/02/2019 19:37

I wouldn't pay fifty quid for them 🙈

curiositycreature · 16/02/2019 19:39

I quite like them 🤷🏼‍♀️
