The first pair you posted could work if you were wearing some retro/vintage dresses, but if not it would be hard to pull off .

See where I said above that I feel like I look 55? Now you see why? For the love of God help me! Don't move it anywhere!

Get a pair of plain 2 inch pumps if you don't want to be trendy, but stay away from all these other shoes.

I take that back...I love the leopard pumps posted...but not sure if the OP will go for it.

Which ones are those? OP here.

Why not stick to solids/ colorblock if you are conservative?

I do stick to solids most of the time for the fear that I'll pick out something as evidenced above. How about this http://www.talbots.com/online/browse/product_details.jsp?id=prdi29974. I honestly welcome any suggestions.

When I think of myself, I never think "hip, young, fashionable." I always think I dress like I'm 55 and I'm trying to change that.

OP here again. Something like this would probably be ok

I know it's not the most exciting outfit, but as I said before, I really suck at putting stuff together so i never venture out.

I'm looking for something comfortable first and foremost. I walk A LOT during the day and if my shoes are not comfortable they'll end up sitting in the closet. I got a pair of these
http://www.ninewest.com/Caress/6279317,default,pd.html?variantSizeClass=&variantColor=JJ4XEFB&cgid=8346252&prefn1=catalog-id&prefv1=ninewest-catalog&ep_tag=PMPH3 put them on for 10 minutes and they are sitting in the bag to be returned. I thought they were adorable, but the heel is just too much.

I'm 34, dress fairly conservatively (slacks and cotton tops most of the time). I work in an office where huge fashion statements are probably not a good idea, but slacks, one tone dresses and pretty tops are probably best.

Or even these if you can handle the heel (I couldn't):

I wear these with jeans constantly and get tons of compliments on them, but they seem to be out of stock in most sizes.

For comfort, some brands to focus on would be Aerosoles, Clarks, and Easy Spirit. But they've got some duds too, so report back before you buy!

I really like all of the choices here. You are right, I definitely couldn't handle the heel on the second pair. I have a pair of clarks that has a heel that size and I don't wear them. I'll look on the clarks website again. I'll report back.

PP again. Or try putting insoles in anything.
