......with a pair of totally inappropriate cerise pink suede ballet flats. They're gorgeous! I only have one or two outfits that they would go with and they're quite impractical and a bit pricey. Managed to walk away but still keep thinking about them. What to do?!? I'm coveting them! Should nannas wear cerise pink suede??

Glad you've got them always give in to impulses it's your inner instinct telling you what to do! Enjoy

They are lovely and now a bargain but pointed - I cant wear pointy shoes podiatrist says I have square feet!!!

Me too, Teetime. I also learnt many years ago now that high heels gave me backache. I am concerned for the foot health of my GD1 who squashes her feet into shoes that bear no relation to the width of her toes. And as for those 7" heels...!

Hell YES, go for it, that's just what your feet were made for.

Those look stunning Katek! Health to wear! Glad you decided before they went out of stock!

I have no interest in clothes , but as for guilty pleasures , no guilt I just say - because I'm worth it and then buy or do

KatekWell done you getting on them and at such a fab price,I saw the ad for the sale in last weeks paper and the prices where great it's a pity I could not get over to try some stuff,that pink would go well with some of my stuff they are the sort of flats I love.

Katek they are so pretty! I am green with envy that you can wear shoes like this. I would have bought them in a heartbeat if I had nice feet and not these horrible, misshapen, bunioned feet that will only fit into a EEE shoe envy. Added to which I now have slightly fallen arches so need orthotics (flippin' uncomfortable TBH, so don't always used them).
If I come across a pair of shoes that are comfortable I am so excited I just buy them because, believe me, it is a rare occurrence sad
