Large footed ladies - what styles make them look smaller?

I love flats but so many of them are cut really close to the toes and I think they make my feet look larger than they are (size 10).

I like Privo flats because the cover more of the end of the foot but I've exhausted those options.

I don't know if it's a style choice or if it's more flattering but I seem to like rounded toes rather than squared or pointed... What do you think? If you have any photos too, I'd love to see them. I'm looking at winter footwear. Thanks! Chat Icon

I'm in the same boat.. by boat I mean my size 11'sChat Icon Chat Icon... depends upon the shoe. I would so love to know... buying on-line doesn't work for me because I'd have to order every pair in a 10.5 and 11 to see what fits.

I was a size 10 for years and my feet went up a size with pregnancy.

It's impossible to find shoes. The other day, I said to DH I'm going to have to shop at the "drag queen shoe store"Chat Icon

I think wedges make your feet look smaller

i only wear flats and i agree wit you greenie - they have to cover all, if not most of my toes, to not look huge.

i also cannot wear skinny jeans because my ankles are so small they make my size 9 feet loot SO huge. boot cut jeans that come down to the floor are my friend b/c they cover part of my feet and make them look at least normal sized.

i pretty much live in ballet flats from payless and target. rocket dog is a good brand too (i get them at DSW) and jessica simpson also makes great.

I try to wear my most flared boot cut jeans when I wear flats, they cover some of the foot so make it look smaller. I usually wear darker colored flats too (versus bright colors which seem to look larger too). Such a pain!
