they seem a little conflicted to me. i am not sure what exactly they are supposed to be doing. ruching, wedge, and flaps thats a lot for one little shoe to deal with. besides flap up flap down what pants what dress what skirt. . .sends me into a fashion anxiety attack.
seriously though if you love them and have an outfit in mind for them then get them. they are cool enough and different enough that if you know what your doing it could be kinda fashionista.
no, they're not hideous. Worked the right way- very cute. Haha, i find myself "strangely attracted" to a lot of things- often the oddballs are the ones i end up loving the most
