Thinking about these 2 pairs of shoes.  If you don't like either one, I don't need to know unless you would like to suggest an alternative wide "nude" sandal, with some toe coverage.  The color not an issue for me, other than I would want solid "nude" like color.

 

These are the 2 I am considering:

 

1 (inspired by the Q offering this shoe in a different color, limited sizes)

Color:Taupe - Image 1 - Pearlyn Leather Ankle Strap Platform Sandals

 or 2

 

 

I need wides, so my choices are limited.  TIA!

@NYCLatinaMe @I,like the second pair. I have a pair that is almost like those! I wear a wide also, and I found them to be very comfy. If you try the first one let me know. I think platforms are cute but, I have never tried them. I'm curious as to your experience! 😊

Mu first thought is, I like #2.

 

They are both very pretty.  I like the second one because it is streamlined (not necessarily more comfy).

Totally agree with @Sweetbay magnolia .  I vote for the 2nd pair. The other pair is a bit clunky looking.

Once again I wish I could edit.  I know, I know, but I can't.  Why is this?  Oh well.  Never would I say "Mu" first thought.  Aack.

My thoughts--I think they are both ok.  The first one has  more support for your forefoot which is nice and more toe coverage, but the heel on the other one is more attractive.  The first one will make you a little taller because othe heel looks a tiny bit taller, and the sole under the ball of the food is higher.  For that reason you might not feel the height of the heel as much, so the first one could be more comfortable.  Color on both are nice.  

 

Are they here on the Q?

I prefer #2.  You  can't go wrong with either. They're both cute but as someone else mentioned they're more streamlined.

I like #1 for style, color, and like the looks of the heel better too. It's also a little more platform which I like. That is if you can do that heel, not easy for me. Haha

@NYCLatinaMe This will probably be of no help to you but I like them both! But would wear them both differently somewhat.

I like a platform, with sundresses, maxi dresses in summer, casually dressed up. Maybe even some cropped white pants and a cute top. Straw hat. Sunglasses. 

 

The other is not as high, more dainty, and probably would like those more with cropped pants, with that lower heel. Maybe even a summer shorter sundress, skirt, skort, or shorts if that's your style.

 

I'm stabbing around because of course I don't know your style or what you like to wear...but I do like them both. Both cute. I'd say #1 is a bit more bohemian. #2 more classic

 

Hope that helps..
