Please help me find nice comfy but interesting shoes - something like Converse or Rocketdog styles in a turquoise or jade type of colour

am happy to consider sequins, patterns, etc

am in frivolous mood but they MUST be flat and comfy and good for walking

in a bad way though yes?

my sister gave me her pair today as they are a bit too small. They look okay but not enough of a heel for me.

we are a bit different shoewise I think.

Will be back with something YOU WILL LIKE!

no I do like them, they are really flamboyant
they are the wrong shape for what I am looking for (ie comfy slouching about) but I am admiring them

darn they haven't got my size in these

I like them Bee but they are too shoe-y - I wanted something more trainery
and preferably blue or green

They do Lelly Kelly shoes in a 6 you know. But I would have to shoot you Franny, so that's something to consider.

100 you could never shoot me because you would have to MEET me first

OP posts:
Boco · 01/03/2008 20:55

Well yes, there was some grey - but they had turquoise birds! And a red bird.

Those red ones would make you look like you were about to jump on your BMX with your satchel and go and solve a crime by hacking into a BBC computer.
