Ok so I just bought these shoes from JC Penny...

And my dad was SO RUDE. I showed him and he says something like "those are the ugliest things I've ever seen in my life! They look exactly like grandma shoes, oh my god, I'm telling the TRUTH, no one would like those, they're disgusting!" Ext ext.... Anyways I got really mad and sad that my dad would even say something like that, but what are your opinions?

I think your dad was a little harsh in his reaction. I think if you like the shoes and they are your style then who gives a crap what your dad or anyone else says. I know it's hard to wear something sometimes when people think it's unattractive, but if you feel comfortable in them, then rock them!!!

i think those are so cute. i was thinking of buying some on the newport news website the other day but shouldnt spend the money. not to get you down but they called them "granny boots." lol. they are 'in style' this fall. but you should wear them only if you really like them.

they remind me of nun's shoe ( I went to catholic school most of my life)..
except a lil' higher. Yet,, at the same time they remind me a lil' of the style I used to wear when I was 15 (1995).
If you like them.. rock them.

I think they would look better with wider leg wool/tweedy pant more so than the skirt. With the skirt, you would really have to pull the look together with all the right pieces.

My huband hates 90% of my shoes. Screw it, if you like it, show em' off with confidence!

If you like them wear them.
Since you asked for input, I personally do not like that style at all.
But again, they are your shoes and if you like them then wear them.

The victorian look is in, I think they are fine. It depends on what you wear them with, as long as its not a dress so you dont look like Nanny McPhee.
Jennifer Love Hewitt wore them with slacks and suspenders it was really cute.
