I bought these shoes over the weekend and they arrived today. I can't yet post photos (new account, and besides my camera isn't working) but I thought I'd provide the Amazon link:

I wanted a lighter colored pair of shoes -- and I have very fussy feet (and problems with my legs sometimes) -- and I really like maryjanes and t-straps. The shoes are amazingly comfortable (around the house for 4 hours so far) and have good cushioning in the front, and a solid sturdy heel. Comfort-wise, they may likely be 6 to 8 hour shoes. I have a lot of trouble finding shoes that I can wear for extended periods of time, so these seem promising that way.
My issue with them is the leather is a bit different than I expected and I worry that the style is a little "twee" (little girl or even granny). The shoes are a bit darker than in the online pics (that I like) but more shimmery -- a silvery taupe. I'm not sure if I'm a glitter girl though.
If you would wear them, how would you wear them? I'm not used to lighter shoes (mostly dark wardrobe and dark brown hair) so this is new territory for me.
I have a pair of ankle strap flats from Clarks that were a similar leather and I put mink oil on them and they became slightly darker and more matte. Should I try it with these? Or should I just return them and keep loo-oo-oo-king?
I should probably add that I get dressed each day starting from the feet and work my way up -- my shoes determine my outfit since I have so many issues with my lower extremities.
Any advice anyone has is also appreciated. Thank you.
