Honest opinion on these shoes please

[katydid1971]

I need shoes that I can wear with socks. I have been trying to dress nicer lately but I want an honest opinion on if these are cute, stylish or old lady-ish.

I don't care for them, they are not my style. But I am not much of a fashionista.

Ditto. They look like man shoes. However, I think that style is trendy and popular so if you are drawn to them, go for it. :).

Eta- actually those were popular for girls back when I was in jr high. I had a pair and liked them. Guess my style has changed!

They look a bit "mature" to me....nms, but maybe they are "in" now?

[hillview]

NMS at all.

[SnuggleBuggles]

I also don't think they'd look good with socks. How about some booties?

Me too! I don't think they're very feminine looking.

[TwinFoxes]

I'm with pp. "Mature".

These are the kind of shoes that if you are crazy trendy and always look put together in a very fashionable kind of way and you have a perfect outfit for these (plus you have tons of other shoes as well), then they are great. If you plan to wear these as an every day pair, they will look just look mature. Get some booties, chukkas or even clogs for that purpose.

I just got these:

I'd ditto that. You could probably find a more streamlined loafer from j crew. I think I saw them recently

Great way of putting it.
I do know that these boat shoes have been "in" for the past year or two (maybe longer, not sure). I might try a slightly different style, like this one

I would try something else. They are masculine looking and not very versatile IMHO.

Exactly. I've got these that I wear for fun :

For everyday, I'd just get some ankle boots.

I like the traditional top siders in metallic colors better.
