Hi guys!

I need your opinion here. What do you think looks better? Pointy toe ballet flats or Round toe ballet flats? Here are a 2 samples of shoes I possibly want. Click the image to open in full size. OR

I think that those round toe ones are super cute. But it may be easier to dress up the pointy toe ones for a night out. Well I'd like your opinion so please help me out here!!! Thnx!

Re: Pointy toe VS. Round toe ballet flats

i love the round toe one... i have one similar from aldo...
i would buy the rounded toe... but depends what kind of occasion you want to wear it for... formal: better with pointy... rounded is just for style and cuteness... and also... pointy toe shoes dont look good on some people (like me =( ...)
do you know how much are those flats? and where?

Re: Pointy toe VS. Round toe ballet flats

i say go for the round toe flats. i also have a similar pair from aldo. where did u get those pix? it seems like lotta companies are making knock offs of aldo flats.

the pointy toe flats do look better on some ppl. but i think it makes yur feet look big...i also have the aldo pointy toe flats...and they aren't as comfy as the round toe. u can dress up round toe flats too! but pointy heeled pumps are the ones that make u look taller..not the flats lol.

Re: Pointy toe VS. Round toe ballet flats

The pictures of these ones are from eBay!! I'm looking for like daily office wear. So I still want to look professional but still be comfortable. These ones are about like 12 -16 bucks on eBay and shipping on top. A few sellers are selling them.

I went to the mall today and I saw some cute pointy ones at off the wall and joneve too. I just can't decide, pointy or round. They're both so cute. But if the pointy ones make you taller... Lol I'm tempted to swing that way.

Re: Pointy toe VS. Round toe ballet flats

really? Well I wasn't planning to buy them off ebay. Shoes are something I need to try on and make sure they're comfy too.. But I dunno, it seems to tempting to get them on eBay since they're so cheap.

Re: Pointy toe VS. Round toe ballet flats

yeah pointy toe flats seem nice for office wear. make sure u buy the nude ballet slipper socks that come in the pantyhose material so it won't hurt yur feet. i don't really agree that pointy toe flats makes u taller. i think it's totally opposite. none the less. they are still nice

Re: Pointy toe VS. Round toe ballet flats

I think pointy toed shoes (flats or pumps) make you look thinner. Only the pumps make you look taller though. If you have tiny feet, then you can pull of the pointy toed ones easier (with larger shoe sizes, they do start making you feet look huge). I personally think the round toed ones are much cuter.

u can get them at any department store. i got mine at the bay...2 pairs for..$4? u can wear them in pumps or flats to minimize the rubbing of yur foot with the shoe so it doesn't cause blisters. some pumps and flats don't need it. but i find the pointy toe flats need it.
