I luv them, especially those gold heels,
very me

Hmm this week it's a toughy but I think I have to say Nay. I think for "classic" designers should stop reading "dull". This shoe would be beautiful in crocodile skin or sexy tan leather like the pair that hot man-stealing Ms Jolie was wearing last week.

They wouldn't be too bad without that horrid metallic heel which I personally feel always leaves a shoe looking cheap. (And soo red or dead 4 years ago!)

Yay, but I won't wear them. The gold heels and the classic shape are a good mix, but in the end I found them too loud for me...

Posted by: Clem | November 23, 2005 3:42 PM

Definately YAY! I most of the time wear capri jeans with boots but this is very nice under long jeans and a basic shirt. I love the colour combination! I would buy them

Posted by: aimée | November 23, 2005 4:38 PM

Nay. It is actually quite nice, up until the cheap looking gold heel. Perhaps if it was more of a brushed metal? I don't know, it just looks too garish for me.

I say YAY! The vintage look of the material is what I found most appealling, it kind of has that raoring 20's look. This shoe is also versatile: you could pair these with some capri's or jeans but they would also take you to an evening/formal look. I like.

YAY, because I love the shape with the side cut-outs, I love the striped look and I am a big fan of that colour. I can even live with the heel since it doesn't look to me as all that SHINY.

Posted by: Andreea | November 23, 2005 5:14 PM

Ooh, I think they're beautiful! The gold heel doesn't turn me on but it doesn't turn me off enough to say no. The shape and the fabric are gorgous; classic yet different. I agree with Joanna that the heel would be better in a brushed metal. Yay overall.

Posted by: angel | November 23, 2005 6:26 PM

A definite yay for me ! Yes, it's a classic shoe, but you can wear it with a lot of things, even though the gold heels put me off at first :)

Posted by: Katelijn | November 23, 2005 6:53 PM

Yay - I love the cutouts, the stripes and the rich brown color. They're relatively subtle but interesting, I'd wear them with jeans.

Posted by: circus | November 23, 2005 7:01 PM

Yay (though not by much). They are a bit much with a ll the stripes and the cut-outs and the gold, but the classic style makes them a bit more subtle. With the right outfit (and a girl with enough moxie), they could be great.

Posted by: Casey | November 23, 2005 7:17 PM

Yay. It's gorgeous although I have a love-hate thing with the metallic heal. It can make a shoe cheap, but I think the remainder of it is so gorgeous that the heal gets away without being cheap. Bronze might've been better?

Posted by: Tom | November 23, 2005 7:26 PM

I'll give them a yay with reservations. I would like to see them in person. There is strong possibility they would just look cheap up close.

Posted by: Mindy | November 23, 2005 7:42 PM

Yay!! Great color, difficult to find brown shoes that go with everything! I don't mind the gold heel, it avoids a boring shoe.

Posted by: Jessica | November 23, 2005 8:28 PM

Yay! very much! classic with a bit of a kick, I do hope they aren't too expensive.....

Posted by: Kathryn | November 23, 2005 9:49 PM

Yay! I think they're gorgeous and the gold heel is fun.

Posted by: Badger | November 24, 2005 1:46 AM

NAY. I don't like them at all.

Posted by: Ashley | November 24, 2005 5:31 AM

leaning towards yay... they color is very vintage-y

Posted by: julie | November 24, 2005 7:57 AM

Hot - YAY!

Posted by: Sally | November 24, 2005 9:34 AM

Yay! I'm not sure quite why, but I like them.

Posted by: Anna | November 24, 2005 12:01 PM

i want them. i know a perfect skirt to go with them - it lives in my wardrobe.
oh let me have them, please. i am a size 6.
big yay!!!

Posted by: cc | November 24, 2005 12:11 PM

"As is" nay - with some minor alterations yay. The gold heel looks too plasticy and cheap. If the designer had used something that looked either like real gold or an antique gold/bronze I think it would look better and possibly be a bit more versatile. If I had these in my closet I would probably be looking at permanent paints at the craft store to make that alteration. :)

Posted by: Hilary | November 24, 2005 12:13 PM

Definitely a YAY! I think they're beautiful, so what if the carpet is reflected in the heel as least its not up your skirt!

Posted by: Fabienne | November 24, 2005 1:48 PM

Ah, nay. really grannyish. like a granny who still feels sexy. but really shouldn't.

Posted by: Johanna | November 24, 2005 6:13 PM

YAY! I lovw them, with my brown suit trousers and a nice gold top, I'd be ready for a night out!

Posted by: Angel | November 24, 2005 8:09 PM

yay, those are really nice.

Posted by: Shelly | November 24, 2005 8:26 PM

Yay but not on me - could look tacky

Posted by: Deb | November 24, 2005 10:36 PM

Very Very YAY! what a quality pair of shoes, very me

Posted by: Suzi | November 24, 2005 11:12 PM

yay.... but the right outfit and person has to pull them together. could look tacky or trying too hard on the wrong person...

Posted by: lily | November 25, 2005 5:36 AM

Sexy, yet classy. Interesting, yet understated. They have a personality, yet you could wear them without them taking over your entire outfit. I think we have a winner. A definite YAY from me.

Posted by: Rach | November 25, 2005 11:24 AM

Definitely YAH! I love them and have the perfect brown skirt and gold top to go with them - but will they stand up to hours of partying!!! And I bet they're way outside my price range!!

Posted by: Lynn | November 25, 2005 1:45 PM

Nay. The gold heel is just a bit too much, and I'm really not for the side cutouts.

Posted by: Stacy | November 26, 2005 10:25 PM

i say yah, theyre lovely, i would buy them. they would look fab with jeans as well as skirts and trousers.

Posted by: den | December 5, 2005 11:30 PM

nay, the claasic shape isn't bad but the gold heel reeks cheap
