What shoes/boots/trainers/sandals do you wear? and with what? (style, make, that kind of thing).

I need some more shoes, and have no inspiration. My brain has just stopped working.

Inspire me please

I live in my converse; white, cream and plum pairs. Worn with jeans or denim shorts when we get the weather.

On a night out, wedges.

In the winter, Uggs (real ones!). When it gets too warm for my converse I'll wear birkies.

pavlovthecat · 27/05/2009 20:09

what kind of wedges do people wear? shoe wedges, material sandal type? I want to be a bit braver...

Birkies in summer (with most day time things)

Wedges or peep toes for going out

Trainers, boots or ballet pumps if its too cold for birkies

hf128219 · 27/05/2009 20:11

I have leather and suede wedges. Also some canvas ones for summer.

mrsdisorganised · 27/05/2009 20:11

I wear walking boots and cat boots most the time If I'm 'out' usually my favourite high boots. Summer usually is Teva sandals.

cocolepew · 27/05/2009 20:12

Lo top converse-assorted colours

Birkinstock sandals -assorted colours

Ballet pumps

Nike trainers

Have a few high/wedges for nights out.

Lulumama · 27/05/2009 20:12

many pairs of russell & bromley wedges, which are £££ but one pair is 7 years old and still going strong. raffia ones,denim ones,leather patent ones. some interesting wood and leather high clogs too from Ash.

pavlovthecat · 27/05/2009 20:13

cocolepew · 27/05/2009 20:14

shoes.

weepootle · 27/05/2009 20:14

Lo-tops are the shoes, I only wear lo-tops.

pavlovthecat · 27/05/2009 20:15

ok stupid question - if you wear them with, for example shorts, what socks do you wear ?

OP posts:
nickschick · 27/05/2009 20:15

sparkly birks (copies)

pink sparkly ballet pumps

black patent ballet pumps

adidas stan smiths

black wedge heels

lots of others but these are mainly my day shoes.....unless its winter when I wear boots and I have a massive range of boots .

cocolepew · 27/05/2009 20:16

No socks

yama · 27/05/2009 20:16

Mainly Fly London for work - both shoes and boots.

Converse for casual, heels for going out (which is rarely).

Oh, and silver Nike for the gym. Luckily, it's the work's gym and I'm always alone. Phew.

pavlovthecat · 27/05/2009 20:17

i quite like the idea of wearing a really smart shirt, dark jeans and a pair of converse to work...I am looking at what I am wearing now and think I could either wear court shoes to look talller, skinny and officey, or a pair of dark blue converse to make me look more funky!

keep em coming!

LyraSilvertongue · 27/05/2009 20:17

Currently wearing my beloved knitted Uggs.
Have just ordered a pair of Superdry trainers (Converse style)
Rocket Dog flip flops
Susst trainers.
That's about it.

cocolepew · 27/05/2009 20:17

Unless you want to look like a boy scout.

pavlovthecat · 27/05/2009 20:17

so converse shoe trainers and no socks? wouldn't your feet smell?
