Are these sling-backs 'fat barmaid'?

[Sweeedes]

I tried them on today and they are gorgeously comfortable and I could wear them all day for
work.

[mid-life crisis emoticon]

I can't walk in high heels and nothing destroys a woman's confidence quite like tottering uncomfortably.

oh yuck! Don't do it

no no no no no no.

no no no no no

They are awful. Truly awful. You might as well give in all together and wear crocs.

At least they don't cost £90.

What about these?

They look a bit Day Release to me. sorry

And before I get flamed for that I do know what I'm talking about

I was going to post a comment but skimmed through the other posts first and now I:

a) feel a bit sorry for sweeedes
b) realise my comment was going to be mild in comparison

Sweeedes, they are just awful, love. You'd be better off in flats, I think. Especially for £90! Can't you just do ballet pumps or summat?

A stylish wedge always works if you don't walk well in heels. I live in Wedges.

like these

or these

No no - they are horrid!

Also, for £90 you don't want an entirely synthetic shoe - you feet will sweat and smell gross!

OP step away from those shoes
they are fat barmaid, smoking a fag in the bus stop!
Yuck.

not barmaidy at all. But utterly hideous nonetheless. A shoe which is pretending to be stylish but which is absolutely not. And ludicrously expensive. Do not do not do not buy!

It's a Mumsnet first. You are all in agreement about these shoes. Oh the shame!

I need something fairly formal.

No barmaid would be seen dead in them there shoes - far to pouncey for pulling pints

OMFG
They are mniging.
No, not fat barmaid (that is reserved for silver cork wedges)
They are more of a 'I've just had surgery on my hammer toes and this is my remedial footware' look.

Don't you dare!

Right. I am NOT going to buy those shoes. I want my sartorial subtext to be something more interesting than healthcare worker with a family history of fallen arches.

How about these shoes are they a bit shimmery for the office?

I'm not keen on those mary jane ones - aren't they a bit overpriced.

And I was shocked at 90 quid for non-leather. Have a look at Fly London sandals for comfy ones (and all leather and all padded inside).

I have these, they are comfortable

Laurie I have some Fly crossover wedge shoes but Fly shoes are v v casual and slightly hippy chick.

sorry, I think they look REALLY cheap considering they cost £90

Lol at fat barmaid.

IMO they are more like chambermaid with a nylon tabard.

They are not shoes, they are hooves.

like those fly wedges a lot LFC.

Nothing to do with the non-leatheriness, but I couldn't bring myself to pay £90 for shoes full stop. Anything over £30 and my mind would rebel and not let me complete the transaction.

I really like the Mary Jane's. And they'll look great with black. Especially if the rest of you is dressed v. down/in suit/office attire.
