Cruel Shoes: Missoni for Target Pumps
Last week some of you may recall that I was so excited to have found a pair of Missoni for Target Suede Pumps for sale at my local store. The coveted shoes had been abandoned/misplaced in the housewares section of Target. Last night, my excitement turned to pain, as I wore my chic Missoni shoes out to a party. Sure they look great. But are they comfortable to walk in, or even stand in? The answer is a distinct no! Buyer beware, if you see this shoes selling for inflated prices on eBay look away or check on M by Missoni at Nordstrom or on ShopBop for a better pair. While these shoes are tres fashionable, and I received many compliments on them, I will be careful about where I wear them to next. Perhaps a sit down dinner party would be a better fit for these cruel shoes. Standing in them for a few hours is enough to make your feet scream for flip flops. If you were sad that these shoes were sold out everywhere, and are still lusting for them, I hope reading this makes you feel better. For forty bucks, there are good looking shoes that you can both stand and walk in at other stores.

Same thing w/ the flats. They are uncomfortable. They gave me blisters on the front cut out. I think it's b/c of the plastic lining.
I am so disappointed. I just hope my sweaters don't fall apart easily.

I loved these shoes the instant I saw them and had to buy them. I found them to be a bit challenging but nothing close to awful. Also, I'm not usually a heel wearer so when I do wear a pair of heels, they have to be at least somewhat comfy.

That's a shame! I didn't think they'd be comfortable when I saw them, despite their rounded toe. The suede seemed stiff (IMO).

oh wow, that's absolutely awful !!
They looked really comfortable because the thick heel & rounded toe 🙁
I guess looks can truly be deceiving & I'm really glad I didn't buy them.
