I have been wearing boots with skirts all winter but I don't know what to wear now the weather's getting warmer...

[worriedfriend2]

Any recommendations? I can't wear open toed anything because I have crap feet and am probably a bit old for ballet pumps. My favourite look atm is is bit like the picture with this skirt. I'm a recent convert to skirts, having lived the previous 40 years in jeans, so need all the help I can get

I'm usually good at shoe hunting, but I specialise in killer heels which is not what you are after obviously.

I can't find any.
I presume this is for casual daywear? Are we talking work?
I like the idea of the wedges but eww to plastic.

DH would think he'd died and gone to heaven if I got those ones TDWP

DEpends on your style really - lower heeled mary janes would look nice with A line skirts and tights but I think that this time of year is one for jeans maybe?

So when do you have to stop wearing ballet pumps?

Yes to work but not formal IYKWIM. I love killer heels but I've got to be able to walk a fair distance in them, so not massively practical. Can the over forties really wear ballet pumps??

oh right.

fly do some

arse

Those are nice.

are these nice or nasty?. Would you have to wear them without tights??

Those suede ones are fugly.

yes like those too
depends if you are happy in flat with skirts

Those monsoon ones are nice, it is acceptable to wear a small peep toe with tights.

i like 8.5cm heel though

Love the first and second Fly ones, Clarks ones are interesting and Rocket Dog ones are fab - not too young? Can you tell I have a paranoid fear of appearing mutton??

No no not at all. Rocket Dog are incredibly comfy too, lots of padding!

are they...
fly are wide btw
have a pair of red ones and they are liek boats

These are pretty, woudl look good with skirts

OK, am going to order a few of these and try them out.

Any recommendations for a coat/mac to wear over said skirts?

Mac, not sure about the pouch though - Lol

That's nice too - excellent. Do you think it matters that it hasn't got a belt?

Belted macs are for the slim folk (of course you may be one of those). I am also ample in the norkage dept and a belt just looks wrong.

P.s. For some weirdy reason Lands End usually manages to hit the spot when it comes to winter jackets or macs, but they get it wrong on so many levels with their other clothing.

'Fraid not, I have no norks but equally I have no waist either, so I'd just look like a mac-covered telegraph pole tied in the middle. You're right, no belt is the way to go . And IKWYM about Lands End - there was a gorgeous coat that someone linked to a while back but I didn't buy and regretted it.

LOL at mac coloured telegraph pole
