fashion & comfort in a flat shoe

I’m going to be spending an awful lot of time on my feet this summer - I’m teaching a series of art camps.  I need a shoe that’s going to be comfortable & supportive from 7am to 5pm… as well a shoe that still looks pretty.

solutions for heavy calves

I was a horse-crazy teenager, but always had a terrible time finding riding boots that would fit correctly. It’s not very comfortable to have numb legs from the knee down!
I ended up getting elastic gussets sewn into the insides of my boots - which is a great solution if you have access to a […]
