The shoes are not a fussy style but a bit in the chunky direction and would look cute with skirts in the fall and winter but I would need something to keep my legs warm.

We only get Hue tights here and not the socks, so I always try to pick up a replacement set when I go back to the US.

Also, for some reason, they really make your feet stink! It's true...my shoes reek and none of my others do!

I really like the sound of them. I've never been a big fan of fishnets with larger 'holes', but was intrigued after you mentioned the micro fishnets on the forum, and I think I will give them a try. 'Polka dot black fishnet stockings': just reading that makes me smile;-) And it's such a pity Marks & Spencer closed down their European stores a few years ago, they had some decent hosiery indeed, not to mention the best chocolate chip cookies and chocolate chips cereal ever!!! Those white slingbacks are lovely Shiny, I think you will get lots of use out of them. Thanks Angie! I really like the sound of them.

I tried the Sam Edelman's that Angie shows in the blog post, but they are too flat for my taste and comfort. Yours have a little bit of a heel which is nice. Just wish they'd come in more colors. (not that I need another pair of summer shoes, ha) Shiny, I love those slingbacks. I tried the Sam Edelman’s that Angie shows in the blog post, but they are too flat for my taste and comfort.

A commuting society does not wear impractical peds. Those shoes are adorable, Shiny. I hope they work for your trip. I’m still more comfortable in a closed shoe for sightseeing (like your Cole Haan ballet flats) because a slingback strap starts to rub after 4 hours. But, your feet might not be as fussy as mine!

Very stylish, but also comfortable as well. I've seen too many tourists hobbling around in uncomfortable shoes this year, including a dear friend who had terrible blisters for 2 weeks. Not worth it! If you look around here, the natives are not wearing painful shoes. No white marshmallows, to be sure. But no high, strappy sandals either. Shiny, I think those shoes would be great in Paris.

They are Privo (a Clark's brand) and have lots of cushioning and support. I thought they might be a good option for the Paris trip.

I discovered them on my last trip back to the States in January. I haven't seen them here in Paris. Happy Bastille Day! Ooo, I LOVE these.
