I need a pair of nude mary janes/t-strap pumps for the office. They must have a heel that isn’t too thin (I prefer more blocky heals due to a prior ankle injury) and no more than 3-4”. And I can’t find any anywhere. Help!
So - future submitters - try to remember that you are going to get better answers if your questions include a size and price range (and in the case of nude for you shoes, an example of a shoe that is the right "tone" of nude.) But - without that information, I will soldier on for you SunnyD - because nude Mary Janes or T-Straps sound cute. And I feel confident we can find you something. So let us begin shall we?
Fluevog Laura Evan's Patent gray and yellow t-strap pump at Amazon ($209.25 - most sizes available - oddly enough I'm starting with one that doesn't answer the prompt really. But its the last one I'm posting and its probably my favorite. It's just not a nude mary jane. Oops. I'm going rogue again!) | Sanzia Success Mary Jane Pump at Amazon ($38.08 - limited sizes - the reviews are - how do you say - terrible. But at this price, it might be worth a look see if its available in your size, especially if this is nude for you. I like she shape of the heel and its a nice height from the look of it.) | Me Too Lakota Mary Jane Pump in baby pink at Amazon ($50.22-82.95 - available in a variety of sizes. For many white women, light pink shoes can work as a nude shoe so this could be a nice option. I like the detail of the shiny cap toe and the solid heel which is 3".) |
Fidji Women's Mary Jane Pump in tuc taupe at Amazon ($185 - so I think the taupe is only available in some sizes and it looks like you'd end up paying the full price, but I think this is an interesting enough shoe that I might consider it if it fits in with your style. The reviews are very good, and while the taupe is nice, I have to say the other colors - especially the rust - are fabulous. For people with a more rustic, or elven (as one reviewer noted) sensibility - these shoes would be perfect.) | Vaneli Ikeda Truffle Suede self button pump at 6PM ($69.99 - most sizes available - not sure if suede is an option you're willing to consider - or what color these really are in person but I kind of like the wider strap with the bigger button. The shape isn't my favorite in the world, but they'd probably be super comfortable.) |
Journee Collection Patent Leather Mary Jane Pump in Beige Patent at Amazon ($19.99 - only in size 7 - otherwise a great shoe, 3.25 inch wider heels on a "comfort" shoe with good reviews. If you like it, see if your size is available elsewhere?) | Naturalizer 'Estelle' Pump in Onyx Beige and Black at Nordstroms ($84.95 - most sizes available - I kind of assume you won't want a nude/black combo - but I think these are so cute I'm throwing them in here. Plus I bet they'd be really comfy.) | Franco Sarto Instinct mary-jane in brandy at 6PM ($47.99 - most sizes available - I thought this would be a great nude option for some of my readers of color - its a beautiful shoe, I think the chunky heel is nicely balanced by the pointed toe and the textured shoe - and the shade is lovely. A beautiful shoe over all in my opinion.) |
P.S. For SunnyD and other tumblr readers - if you want to do me a big favor and submit future questions through the Vicarious Shopping Questions form on this page (see the tabs on the top) it helps me out a lot and allows me to keep track of what questions come in and what I've answered! So thanks!!
