Are these black booties okay?

Are these black booties okay? I purchased them to wear with dress slacks and dark jeans. I think they look okay but really wanted a second (and third!) opinion from the board. The platform part is what I am mostly concerned about. They are very comfortable and I can walk in them easily. They won't make me look like a stripper will they?

You definitely won't look like a stripper in these. They seem work appropriate.

They're not bad looking, but for going out, I think I would pick something else because they're a little "meh". Not ugly by any means, but I think you could do better depending on the price.

I'd have to see another picture, but from that angle it looks like a big platform for a really small heel. I'm not feeling them at all, but I am anti-exposed platform so take that for what it's worth.

the angle is weird but they do look "heavy" on the front w/ the skinny heel. are they a steal?

[fashionx]

I would like them without the platform, or with the platform and a higher heel. They seem a little off balance.

Omg no you won't look like a stripper. In my opinion these are very office attire-ish to me. Not my personal style but not offended by them by any means.

I'm with karebear - anti-exposed platform so I am not a fan of these.

Thanks for your quick feedback. They definitely aren't a steal, but aren't horribly expensive either. Here is the link to them (but in black).

Here is a better angle for those that thought they might be off balance.



I think I'll keep searching. I'm searching both for black booties and brown riding boots and am failing at both!

They're definitely work-appropriate!

If you're still looking, I got these black booties last year and I get so many compliments on them (they're comfy too!):

These are definitely in style, but I think would be harder to pull off with slacks or certain dresses.

I want a brown style similar to the ones you posted, but I'm afraid I won't get much use of them past Fall.

Nah. I think if you did manage to find some brown ones you could wear them with dresses and shorts too and then wear them with sweater dresses and skinny jeans (not in the same outfit) in the fall.

I have these in cognac, but I do like the black too. Super comfy (although pretty narrow, which works for me). They've held up great and I think they'd look fine with skirts/dresses.
