Are these shoes frumpy or cute?

[IdrinkandIknowthingssoIdo]

Are these shoes nice or not? I ordered in a tan colour (now out of stock) and want to wear them with wide jeans. I'm mid 40s. Are they frumpy or cute? I can't decide.

Neither. If you like them, can afford them and will wear them, get them.

They look very dated

I’m a bit older than you and I would wear them with jeans and a white shirt on a summer evening. Might be a bit dated but a tan sandal will always be a classic. Good price!

they're not my personal style: too high for me, and I'd be scared I'd fall off, but I walk everywhere, and I like trainers!

They'd look good with a boho style long linen dress, maybe, rolled up jeans, wide leg floaty trousers, that kind of vibe. You can make them work, definitely. Enjoy your new shoes.

Very, very dated. Not in a good way.
