Yay or Nay Wednesday

yaynay91.jpg
While there were a few readers who enjoyed the peep-toe stylings of last week's Yay or Nay, the over-the-top '80s look of Givenchy's heels meant a victory for the appalled Nays, who voted that they were more stud-happy stupid than biker beauties. If you were among the Yays, you can pick up a pair for $538.95 at Zappos Couture.

This week's offering plays on a trend that has been floating about for a few months: block colours. With their brogue detailing, flat heel and multitude of colours, are Miu Miu's ballet flats (featured recently on Shoewawa) pretty in patent or awful eighties? Yay or Nay and why?

Yay! in fact i LOVE THEM!
the color combination is perfect, and i love the design. in fact, i had shoes in this style like 10 years ago (bought at a veeery old shop and seemed to be from the 50s actually!!! were on sale at $5! :O).

those ones look very comfy and soft (rouched at the back), could be combined with a wide variety of clothes and it's an excellent choice to look quirky yet sophisticated!

anyway, i'm fan of some Irregular Choice designs more than a serious fashionista so my opinion doesn't fit in "serious" standards... :)

NAY, too much going on and the colors IMO do not blend well into each other, especially the red and salmon/peach.

I love the concept though and for me its just about the colors not being the right ones

YAY! YAY and more YAY. I love these shoes, I love the heeled ones more but I have lusted after these since seeing them in the catwalk reports. Even contemplating investing in a pair. Love Miu Miu!

Nay, but then I always say nay to flats of any kind. I just can't abide peach either - especially patent peach. In fact, I don't think any of these colours are nice in patent. There's also that Hush Puppies effect with the ruched back. I do like the shape of the front of the shoes though.

Nay. I don't like the colors.

YAY... i love them!!those colors are great and unlike all the other yay or nay shoes these dont scare me.

Not the worst I've ever seen, but still a nay. The ruched heel turns me off the, colors are kind of... strange, and I'm really not a fan of flats in the first place.
