Which would you rather? Might buy two pairs. I wear a lot of maxi dresses and also skinny jeans and tshirts/blouses. Have one pair bootcut.

Evening, @mikado1 . I have the M&S ones, they're excellent. I wear slim line trousers or midi skirts as a rule. When I saw Meghan at Invictus with the two tone Chanel flats ❤️, I hunted for dupes. I found them in M&S and they've been great. These black ones are lovely.
I rather like the Oxendales as well - I buy a lot of shoes from Clarks and the quality is always great.

mikado1 · 18/06/2023 20:14

Ooh OK thank you. Yes I have the Mint Velvet dupes and love them. These are navy which suits the colours in my wardrobe more than black which is ideal. I saw Sally whatsit (Guardian makeup) in the Clarks flats and thought they looked good too.

Clogs too clumpy and the oxendales are frumpy.

Happy to help.

Maireas · 18/06/2023 20:15

I like the look of the Polin et moi - that's a good colour and they look elegant. In fact the only no no for me would be the clogs, they look a bit clumpy, but that's subjective.

Maireas · 18/06/2023 20:17

I think the Oxendales have a slightly different vibe - I've seen a lot of very stylish women in Mary Janes at the moment so they're obviously on trend. I would try them out, it depends on foot shape (I have quite boney feet).

Definitely a different vibe.. I'm not sure I can pull them off but might try to see.

I like the M&S and the Polín suede

Maireas · 18/06/2023 20:24

Give them a go, it's nice to try different styles.
I've been looking at Chanel flats on Vestiaire, but I think I'll just stick to dupes!

ladygindiva · 18/06/2023 20:28

I love the lotta vlog sandals. Infact I want to buy them now 🤣

LadyEloise1 · 18/06/2023 20:29

The Polin braided reference 165147 are gorgeous- very unusual. I can't do links. Perhaps you could link it @mikado1 ?
I haven't heard of that brand before.

I too have the M&S Chanel dupes. A wee bit too flat for me. I need a slight heel.

mikado1 · 18/06/2023 20:31

They're lovely LadyEloise, I'll look that up and link. If toes out, I cant wear them unfortunately.

They might work for you more, @LadyEloise1

mikado1 · 18/06/2023 20:40

They're so nice! Again v like the MVs but thr pink is beautiful!

Thank you @Maireas the Ballerette shoes are fabulous.
All these brands I've never heard of Blush

My vote goes to the Mary Jane Oxendales, with the Ballerettes in runner up position (extra points for fab colour!)

mikado1 · 19/06/2023 18:30

Can I wear the ballerettes with Skinny jeans do you think? 🤔

OP posts:
Maireas · 19/06/2023 18:34

Most definitely! That would be a great look!
What colour would you go for?

LaCerbiatta · 19/06/2023 18:37

The cloggs and the yelow ones! The black ballet pumps are too wintery!

nailsonthebus · 19/06/2023 18:42

Those are lush!
