I like them, especially for sandals in the summer, but I'm really picky about the width of the strap (not too wide, but also not insubstantial) so it's flattering on my ankle and calf. But I love that they help shoes stay on my feet since my narrow heels slip out of so many!

I have one pair that are sitting in my donation box for some time now. I have not wear them for more than two years. But I think the problem is more with the heel height than the ankle strap.

I imagine lots of cultural exchange (and cake!) between the Kingdom of Ankle Straps and the Kingdom of Ballet Flats :).

Elizabeth, those are some fab shoes! Talk about ankle straps!

Anna, I absolutely LOVE that brand (I distinctly remember your recent boots from them, with the different textures of leather if I recall), and those shoes are absolutely gorgeous. I am sort of happy that they don't seem to carry 41s....I just can't go there in terms of price.....

Zap, did you order those? I agree that they are beautiful--I love that heel height!

Anchie, those are fab, but I can see how they would be too high (at least for me). Sad.

To everyone who thinks they can't rock them, I'll bet you can!!

Yep , I did order them. Guilty as charged! I agree, that is the perfect heel height for going out and about, at least for me!
