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]

Getorf. I don't like them either.

Animula - Thanks. Yes, I like them too. I have started a lost mojo shoe thread and will see what the sartorial experts on Mumsnet come up with for me. Otherwise I will get the Mary Janes and try not to look at the screen as I do the credit card transaction.

just ordered those fly wedges

go for it muddle

them fly wedges are reet nice

the fat barmaid ones - need to be accessorised with cracked yellow heels with plasters on and a gold ankle chain

is there anything in clarks? last few years I've got some flat, comfy shoes for work from there. Red ones I got t'other year were luvverly

not sure about the mary janes either
these have a low heel - are they wildly off the mark?

oh. my. god.

But love fat barmaid and off duty special constable. So many lovely new words today. A harvest.

OOoh thank you all for looking for me. I'm just starting to understand how fussy I am.

I don't like pointy toe courts, I don't like kitten heels and a don't like narrow heels. Sorry to those who have chosen those shoes. I like them on other people, but they just aren't me. I need square toes and wide heels or a wedge.

Oh rofly rofl at community health worker shoes.

There will also be community health worker nice scarves.

What is this? The fugly shoe thread?

(Apart form the Fly London ones which are nice)

If you ant comfort, get yourself a pair of crocs.

ooh yuck

again

more hmm

I like the shimmery Mary Janes, myself. It's hard, interesting shoes that are also professional are in short supply atm, I think. You need nailpolish or ... ooh ... I can't remember her name ... {scrunches forehead] no good, can't remember ... .

Gah. supposed to show three different shoes. B** hayfever.

fugly

Jeez
Never realised that so many fugly shoes have been made.

Let me put it this way. I am 53. I have arthritis, bone spurs, plantar fasciitis and a bad back. I hate the look of crocs but would wear them if need be. I have othadedic insoles. But I would not, ever, be caught dead in those shoes.

Referring to the fat bar maid pair- first pair posted, have not checked other links yet.

Could you do a gladiator sandal? They have wedge variants.

Strappy?

These are cute?

Zoikes! Seriously? A barmaid would never be seen dead in those!

The shoes MarthaFarquhar posted were not quite as hideous.
I totally understand comfort for wear, and have a hard time buying shoes myself, hope my passionate hatred for those shoes doesn't stop you if you truly do love them. I would love to be able to wear cute shoes, well wear them as well as stand and walk in them.

That last pair Ewe posted are not bad.

these are sensible without evoking the smell of sanitariums and cheap perfume

Bloody hell those Kurt Geiger ones are absolutely hideous - did you really look at them and think 'Hmmm Nice'?

They will make your feet look like little trotters!!

Bariatric - they are nice, thanks.

Don't hold back any of you, tell me what you really think.
