Anybody Have These VS Shoes?
Permalink Closed



I am looking at the teal pumps. I looked at them in the fall - I am wanting some teal shoes - but held off...I am trying to also get lower heel heights; it seems that everything in my closet is a pretty high heel. BUT they are on clearance for $36 and I am ordering bras anyway, to get the sale prices. I just wonder if anyone knows how comfortable they are. I know some of you girls have VS shoes, but I've never tried a pair.

I love those teal shoes, what a pretty color! They are Hot!  Sorry that Ive never purchased shoes from VS, but those shoes are Colin Stuart and for some reason I remember my mom or someone telling me that they are pretty well made and comfy, but I could be thinking of something completely different...  But they are only 36 dollars, Id say get'em :)

I have those in the leopard print! I normally think VS shoes are pretty comfortable, but these actually aren't b/c of the ankle strap. If you look closely, it narrows in, which rubs against the back of your heel. I don't know if that's just me, but they also are a pretty high heel, so I don't know if it's really what you're looking for. HTH!

I haven't seen those irl, but like Shello mentioned the back part might rub into the back of your heel. My bcbgs are like that. They hurt me the first couple of times I wore them. They rubbed into my heel, but I finally broke them out. I think if you are willing to put up with the pain then get them. You never know, it might not even bother you.

Thanks girls, for the info. I think for $36 I might be willing to give them a try and eat the return s/h if necessary. It's good to know that they may rub...though usually ankle straps don't bother me in the least, and I have two pair that have the closed in back like that. I suppose I won't know until I try...though I do wish the heel was lower. I'd love some teal kitten heels or something, but can't seem to find any.

 i would pass.  i'm trying to help you with your style resolution....don't get something you sort of like because it's on sale!!!!  wait till you find teal kitten heel pumps, and in the meantime, put the $ towards the purse that you want if you can't find the pumps. 


i know that when i was looking for black boots, cuz i had been looking forever, i almost gave up and bought some sorta ok ones, but a week later, i found my beauties.  don't settle!!!


$36 is $36.  it's also $36 to a purse that you and have thinking about for a while...

Do you by any chance have an Ann Taylor Loft near you?  My FSIL recently bought an adorable pair of teal kitten heels from there and I bet they are onsale there now.  I can't find them on the website, but I saw them in the store last week.

shopgirl82, you are right. I was just thinking about these this morning...and I think I will pass. I would rather spend double the money for a pair of shoes I really liked and will get more use out of of than spend it now and be sorry later. After all, how many pairs of teal shoes does a girl need? This girl probably only needs one pair...so I guess they'd better be worth it.

Plus I am really sold on the Biasia bag and that will cut into my shopping budget for a bit, so I need to stay focused on the big picture - less items, but all items that I love and don't just tolerate in my closet. *s*

Thanks for the nudge in the right direction.

shopchicago33, I will stop by an ATL when I get the chance and see about the kitten heels. Any shoes I've bought from them have been really comfortable, so fingers are crossed. Thanks for the heads up!
