I need advice from the Bitches fashion hivemind. I have a pair of these, and I love love love them. However, they aren't made any more, and I need another pair of cute, lightweight, vaguely summery shoes I can wear with my usual fluffy skirts, lace dresses, and whatnot. I'm considering these from Keds, but can't decide if I wouldn't wear them because the toe isn't *quite* pointy enough.
What I should really do is go to Ross this weekend, and see what cute, black, sneaker-ish skimmer shoes they have.
Nope, not pointy enough. You would put them on, and you would look at them and think "Damn, these make my feet look flat and wide."
That's what would happen to me, at least.
Eeep, Jilli, the comments on those Keds look a little scary -- lots of complaints about pinchiness and discomfort and total resistance to breaking-in.

That's what I'm worried about.

Time for me to make a pleading post on the alt.gothic.fashion LJ community, asking if anyone has the pointy-toe sneakers in a size 9 that they'd be willing to part with.
Oooh, these are kinda cute ...
Speaking of shoes, I need these for fall. bad! Because they are so cute and green!
But I think that I am going to have to get a new pair of Docs. I haven't bought any in about, oh, ten years, and mine are TRASHED. But for teaching -- still really comfortable.
Sorry, Jilli, I got nothin'.
Well, I found this [link] , which looks like a Jilli shoe to me, but it's not what you're looking for now...
Those ARE cute!
But are they pointy enough? I wonder what store I could go to in order to see them and judge the pointy-toeness.

Ohmygosh, those are indeed a Jilli shoe. Pointy! Black! Pink sparkly details! But kitten heels are crap for walking long distances in, dammitall.
