Shoes!

I've been shopping for my first Lolita item for weeks and after searching for a very long time I've come up with several candidates and thought I'd ask the community for opinions. I'd like to know if any of you own any of these and how much you would or would not recommend them.

My outfits will be Gothic Lolita with a smidge of punk.

My favorites, from least to most and why :

Very cute, but I'm not wild about the fact they're made from synthetic materials.

Constructed well, but not so sure about the look

Love the spiky looking soles, not crazy about the velcro looking strap., doesn't come in W :/

Totally what I was looking for to begin with, but I'm a little worried about spending so much on shoes I don't know will last. Wondering about durability.

My absolute favorite. I know they have funny little cats on them, but I figured that would be okay given some of the silly shoes I've seen in some of the Asian stores.


Thoughts opinions and reviews are greatly appreciated. Thank you all :)
