arswe - link didn't work. If you can be bothered go to shoes, click on ballet/pumps and it's the top ones, arabesque, suede. Only have black and red but i like the grape and the grey.

I've got really thin narrow feet and get my shoes from Niche Shoes online. They've got some ballet style shoes at the moment.

Another vote for the M&S limited collection - I also bought two pairs as wore first ones to death - pewter colour is lovely and goes with loads of things.

my topshop silvery ones (shop-bought a week or two ago but can't see them online, sorry) are comfy but it took a day or two of wheals and gritted teeth before they yielded.

Oh I bought some top shop silver ones that I really like but they really hurt my feet despite seeming fine when I tried them on. I have high instep and just high feet all the way along so they cut in at the front.

nangnangnang · 26/09/2007 11:34

Mine cut in at the front too but are much better now. Not sure I can recommend taking the pain though - they're nice but perhaps not that nice.

IdrisTheDragon · 26/09/2007 11:36

I have some that came from somewhere like shoeexpress (not there , but similar). They had a brief painful phase but are generaaly very comfortable.

Meeely2 · 26/09/2007 11:37

tescos have some nice ones in, i have them on now, very comfy

bozza · 26/09/2007 11:39

Well maybe I shouldn't have worn them for a trip to Leeds on the train and round the shops with DD until I had worn them in a little. I am going to an Ann Summers party tonight so I think I might wear them for that - will just be sat around because there is no way I am modelling! [shcok]

I bought some silver ones from Tesco. They were really comfy but are pretty battered now. Mind you at £12 I didn't really expect them to last longer than the summer!

Meeely2 · 26/09/2007 11:53

i paid £10 and yess i doubt they will last very long, mine are a bronzy colour....

Seychelles ones from Office (their website is here.)

They're padded and comfy and lovely. They have even killed off my wearing-trainers-on-the-way-to-work thing.

Meeely2 · 26/09/2007 14:36

botbot, you bad bad bad girl - i now have a new obsession! it used to be irregular choice!

Ah but mine are wide and high cod. I tried some on in Asda today and I couldn't even get my toes in them because they were too flat. I had a look at your other thread and quite like the idea of the brown suede ones but can't spend £70 because I need boots.
