I thought so too (the ankle strap pair was picked out by my husband- can you imagine? A guy being so good with shoes?!! :lol: ) But the straps are cute. I wore them with a skirt once (although I usually wear slacks, just more practical) and thought it was not bad at all.Originally posted by Paris'Mom+Nov 9 2005, 12:17 PM--><!--QuoteBegin-Sassy's mommy@Nov 9 2005, 08:53 AM
Paris' mom,
Those are very cute shoes but I have a question, although I know you were only speaking of comfort and showing how cute the syles are. Does the ankle strap cut the verticle vision of the leg and make a person appear shorter? Just wondering.

I got turned onto these brands and wearing a wider shoe (I usually wear the standard M) because my husband researched the internet since he was tired of seeing me in agony at the end of the day.

Actually ankle straps are considered a sexy shoe, which is probably why your husband picked them out!!
A few years ago we had someone on staff handling our public relations, etc. and she reported to me and she wore ankle strap shoes to work. The owner of the company asked me to talk with her and tell her that she couldn't wear shoes like that, especially since she was a public spokesperson for the company. She wanted her to wear simple pumps. I also had to tell her to tone down her eye make up. That was not a conversation that I wanted to have... very uncomfortable telling someone those things... but it turned out OK. She was very gracious about it....
