loswabs Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Ok, I know this is a high heels forum and I love to wear mine, but I also love to wear ballet shoes too. I think they look really cool with skinny jeans or lycra leggings and I love to wear them too. Does anyone else like these and have you worn them out in public? It's my opinion, no more, no less
sabotalot Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 I like low-cut Mary Janes with knee-highs. Haven't used them a lot outside, but have done so on a few occasions. Still looking for the "shortie-vamp" loafers that were popular with the gals many years ago.
canadianbeaver17 Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 I have 3 pairs of ballet flats...1 is a simple black shiny pair from american eagle, one is black with a silver square chain on the toe part, and the other are a neutral Coach optic print flats with a mary jane flat. I love wearing them all too! And don't be worried about talking about non-heels! I like all cuts of shoes!
mizterheel Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 I had a pair of American Eagle flats myself cause I wanted to get some since they seemed to be everywhere (And still do) but they don't really do it for me anymore.
HappyFeat Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 If you are meaning actual ballet shoes, like dancers wear, I LOVE those and have worn them since I was in college; mostly around the house, however. They are not great street shoes because they were never meant for that type of wear. I agree entirely that they are very cute and versitile. In fact ballet shoes introduced me to women's sizing because whenever I bought them, they were sized for women. For example I wore a 10 in a man's street shoe, but ballet shoes were a 12 - the same size I wore in women's shoes. Style is built from the ground up!

HeelD Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I own too many!! Still great fun to wear. Been out four times this week and every day I have worn a pair of ballet shoes (black, brown, grey and purple!). I need to get the heels out soon me thinks. Heel-D - Freestyling since 2005
