Shoe's Help?

Well not Shoes the reg!  But you are welcome to help me because you do love shoes!  :)
So I found two pairs of shoes that I really like online.  I love the color blue and I want blue shoes (again).  I found these two totally different styles but I love them both. 
Pair one:

Pair two:
http://www.dsw.com/shoe/audrey+brooke+madia+pump?prodId=218522&category=dsw11cat270005

The second pair looks hot in red two which I could do.  The problem with the second pair is it is highly likely that I won't fit in them (I have wide feet about 70% of heels don't fit me).  I love them both and can't afford both.  So my question is which one do you girls like better?

    I love the second pair.  But the first are amazing too.  Do they have free return shipping?  Because then you could get both and then decide :)

    Heels are definitely sexier! Especially shiny ones!

    Flats are cuter and more practical for everyday wear.  I would go for the flats just because I hardly wear heels and absolutely love flats.

    Are you looking to choose between the two because you want to go out? Or for everyday sort of wear?

    I like the second pair much better.  I'm not a fan of the first pair.  That being said, I think you can do better.  I'd keep looking.

    No sadly there is an 8.50 return fee.  Unless I go into the store.....

    I typically prefer heels to flats, but I'm not a big fan of patent leather, so I vote for the flats this time.

    See amy here is the thing.  I could wear the heels on Sundays and when I go out (which is never).  I could totally see myself wearing the flats with jeans or skirts.  I think they would be pretty comfy.  What I really want is a new pair of shoes.  I can use both (and would) so I know that is totally unhelpful! Sorry.

    Peekaboo- eh not really my style.  I am not a big fan of the shiny then fuzzy look.
    Amy- YAYA! I like this idea.  Where is the like button when we need it?  Auntie?

    peekaboo- Yaya more shoes.   I like the first one you picked.  Thought BF thinks they look too plastic like.  And free shipping!
    EDIT:  :( Sadly though they don't have my size.  Good thought though!

    Definitely the strappy sandals for something dressy. I don't think the flats would work as well. I'd end up buying the flats though because I'd get more use out of them.

    As far as blue flats/heels, I found these if you're interested!:
    (Click the words for the link :) )
    I love these

    These would be really cute with jeans

    These would work with jeans but still be dressy

    These aren't blue, but they're close to it and I absolutely love them.


    But if you strictly want one of those two, I would go with the flats!!

    I have to go do laundry.  I will be back in about 30 mins.  Alaana I love those heels.  Sadly the shoes I like in your collection are out of stock in my size :(

    I love the first pair, the second pair doesn't seem practical and I'm the type to get stuck up on those sorts of details.  I'm also not a big fan of that shade of blue.  So, if it were me, I'd go for the flats.  But since it's you, I have no clue which ones you'd prefer!

    Thanks for all the help girls.  After looking at numerous shoes I realized I just have to go to the store and try them on.  I think I will be doing this today.  I will keep you updated!  :)  Thanks for all your help. :)
