Okay, I need a final shoe vote!
Permalink Closed

The pair of nude pumps I ordered online didn't work, and I'm seriously under a time constraint now (aka need overnight shipping) for a nice pair of shoes that don't freaking kill my feet.  These all got good reviews comfort-wise, but I should probably only order 2 of the 3.  Which do you choose? (sorry, Endless pics)


Here they are.


Or which do you un-choose, as the case may be?

ETA:  Sorry, not sure what's up with the links today.  I linked to my shopping cart so they're the three across the top of the screen.

I do like all three, but #1 (the nude) and #3 (the snakeskin) are my favorites. The fact that #2 is fabric makes me think it won't hold up as well as the other 2.

If it helps, I'm pretty disappointed that they don't have #3 left in my size.

#1 is a gold satin, so I think it would probably be just as suceptible to wear and tear as #2.  Maybe more so even, since #2 is a darker faux-suede?  I could probably use a waterproofing spray on #2 as well, but I'd be afraid of it leaving spots on #1 .... But #2 may not work size-wise, since I already think Nine West runs TTS to slightly large and the smallest they have is a 6.  Could be enough room for an insole, could be altogether too big.

Maybe I'll just order all three and just be done with it already!

I can't answer unless I know what you're wearing them with. #3 would be nice with an LBD but otherwise I find them kind of busy. #1 looks the most uncomfortable. I like the shape/style of #2 but it's not especially dressy.

P.S. #2 is definitely suede, not fabric, although it says "satin." (I'm looking at the purple one.)

I say order all three and check them out in person. Fabric shoes worry me, but I've had good experiences with suede after waterproofing.

I can see #3 going with a lot. The easiest would be jeans. But I could see them with outfits in blue, grey, red... I think somebody had a really cute outfit using snakeskin shoes from DSW posted in the threadstyle section last week?

Su - I am hoping to pair them primarily with a few LBDs I have.  I know the purple suede doesn't seem overly fancy, but because it has a covered heel I think I could get away with dressing it up a bit more than if it had a wood heel.  And because it is suede I could dress it down as well.  As much as one can dress down a 4 inch heel, that is wink.gif.

Boots - I ended up just ordering all three, after I went to TJMaxx, Marshalls, and the mall and found absolutely nothing even worth trying on.  I agree that the snakeskin could be really versatile - great with the aformentioned LBDs, but super cute with dark skinny jeans as well. 

Fingers crossed that at least one of the options is keepable!

# 1 and #2 - #3's platform and heel seems clunky to me
