These Shoes Have ❤ Heart ❤

It may be a little late to order these for Valentine's Day but do you really need an excuse? These hand-crafted mules and slippers hail from A. Andreassen where their design is "inspired by the woven baskets that children in Scandinavia make and fill with sweets". Using natural materials of either felt or leather they are manufactured by family-run operations in Portugal, so no sweat shops. Not only are they adorable but they look comfortable too. I wish I could have them in every colour. They make them for kids too.

When fall is just around the corner

If you're lucky enough to still have warm weather you may want to skip this post, but if you don't, then these Smythe jackets may offer you some comfort. Personally, I wish I could have every single item from this label but that's not really possible now is it? Well, maybe, just one day I'll have at least one. For now, I'll put them down on my wish list.

I like this one too. But I wonder if either jacket would be warm enough to survive the winter? Hmm...perhaps they could partner up with the UGG company for a few limited edition pieces that could combine the pure warmth and comfort of UGG and the chic style of Smythe. Am I dreaming here? Probably, but then isn't that what a blog is for?

I don't know about you but I've always loved the fit of New Balance shoes, they're as great for walking as they are for playing tennis. And it doesn't hurt that they look good too, or at least they used to. Until J.Crew came out with this grey pair, I really thought I was going to have to look elsewhere. Hopefully, they'll come out with some other winning colour combinations and designs sooner than later otherwise I moving onto Puma.

Shoes for the Summer

When it comes to shoes I almost always prefer flats. Being 5'10" already makes me feel like the Eiffel Tower and heels only compound the problem. More often than not they are so uncomfortable that at the end of the day I sometimes wonder why I even bothered to wear them in the first place. Of course, there are times when the occasion calls for a little lift, but if I had it my way shoe stores would be replete with flats. I don't mind a small kitten heel every now and again but only the most comfortable of heels would ever make me a buyer. Besides at my age I care more about the health of my feet and back than any pair of funky shoes I could ever come across. Although, these shoe selections below clearly illustrate that you don't have to completely sacrifice style for comfort.
