Are these shoes to childish?
Permalink Closed

I think these shoes are so cute,but I am worried they will look childish on me.

 I am 22 but I tend to look like a teenager.I am afraid if I wear them with jeans and a t-shirt as I plan to I will either look silly or like a 15 year old.


What do you think?


TIA

I would've answered "no" but given the circumstance, that you tend to look younger, I'd say stay away from those, for at least a few years

Honey, I am in your boat! I am 25 but have been mistaken for a highschooler on more than one occasion! I try my darndest to avoid MAKING myself look younger so I gotta say no. Maybe in all one color?

I think they COULD work with slouchy pinstripe/tweedy trousers for you, but I definitely wouldn't wear those with jeans and tees if you're worried about looking younger.

  I have been trying to avoid wearing things that make me look younger too,especially when I am out with my boyfriend.He is a little older then me so we can get some really bad looks sometimes.


This style doesn't come in solid colors.They do come in black and white polka dot. Though I'm not sure they are much better.

Hmmmm...that might work. I don't if I would get as much use out of them that way,but they might be worth getting anyway. I will have to think it over.

i think the b/w polka dot pair is still fun, but a lot more sophisticated. i think it's the cherries motif that make the first pair look too young, not the style of the shoe.

Ditto to Lilykind and Hotcocoa.  I think the polka dot print is a bit better.  It's still a young-looking shoe, but not as much as the cherries.

I really like the polka dot ones! They would definitely look more grown-up.

Thanks every one. I just noticed that the cherry shoes come in black too,but I still think I am going to pass on them.


I am considering getting the polka dot ones though.
