So I am buying my girlfriend heels, and I want your opinion

To be honest I really don't like that particular shoe.
Its a shoe that would look great with a dress but you couldnt really wear a pair of slacks with jeans to go out.

I wear heels daily and have about 60 pairs (Iknow I know, I hear it enough from my husband)

I have a pair pretty similar to those and I really don't ever wear them.
Let me do some looking and I will make a few suggestions if you like.

hahaha I wouldn't be one to say "60???!?!?!?" I told you, I understand women's obsession with shoes...there are just so many styles and variations of heels, let alone shoes in general...Men's shoes are so straightforward that there is ONE department, women have 4.

I love straps...they stay on better. These come off if I walk too fast:

I like shiny if they're strappy....less material so the shine isn't blinding.

Gold is good (and an example of pinky toe sticky-outy!!!)

Those ballet heels are scary.....the fact that you can get them in a size 15 is scarier.

Ok, I have to disagree with everyone...I love those shoes. They're great for photoshoots but impossible to walk in....

Pointed toe

Round Toe
(They have it in black, but I thought it looked better in gray. Side note: suede ONLY looks good on a round toe.)

Hehehe.....I knew there'd be one. I see the appeal....extreme opposites. I'd have to put them on lying down...and stay that way.

They're like trainer wheels for balet dancers!

Straps=pain

Most of the time anyway.

If you're looking at strappy shoes, keep in mind the area of the straps and what they are made of.
These look okayish in the area of pain, and they are cute.

These are really cute, but might hurt a little more.

1. These are efiin' amazing, in my opinion...and pretty versatile..and very current.
2. I too understand the pinky toe thing
3. For the love of god, don't buy her white shoes.
4. The ballet shoe thingies are god-awful
5. "Guess" is generally bad in every kind of way.

What.."Guess"? I don't mean the shoes necessarily, but the entire brand. It's like glorified ho-wear with a dash of "Wet Seal"..like a step down from "Bebe" (also horrid). O-nay

1. My fav too. They include all my favorite elements, and the ribbon effect balances the shiny patent leather
2. Good, I was beginning to think there was something wrong with my toe.
