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 […]

I have some doubts about Paris Hilton’s new shoe collection… Maybe I’m just being fussy, but what happened to leaving shoe design to the professionals? Is Manolo Blahnik retiring? Is Christian Louboutin giving up the red soles?

I woke up this morning to an unpleasant surprize.
Snow.
Lots and lots of snow.
I am not a happy camper.
I decided I needed to find a pair of boots that say “I’m going to be fashionable, even though it’s winter!”
I think these boots might accomplish the task:
But the most amazing thing about these boots - they’re made […]

Good quality shoes last so much better than cheap ones - you’ll save money in the long run!
They’re more supportive and are designed with your feet in mind, not just to be cheap to produce.
You’ll support craftsmen who make good shoes, not massive factories with bad working conditions.
Because every woman should have a pair of […]

In honor of finally being able to order from Zappos…
Here’s the very sexy patent-leather peep toe Marc by Marc Jacobs. Torontonians rejoice!
The yummy brown suede “Meteor” by Michael Kors. Vancouverites celebrate!
And for my girls in Montreal: “Bea” by Isaac Mizrahi.

I’m one happy camper! For my American girls, Zappos offers some amazing shoes - but for us northerly gals… it’s another story.
We can’t even order from Zappos!
Until now :-)
Zappos is now offering a Canadian site!
This could be expensive…

Okay, what do you lovely ladies think about these?
They’re the vibram-soled “FiveFingers” shoe.
Yes, those are separate toes you’re seeing.
Thoughts? Comments?

Did you know that recycled pop bottled are used to make all sort of useful things? They can be melted down and spun into polar fleece… and now you can wear them on your feet!
Timberland has just released a collection of shoes using post-consumer recycled materials called “Eco-Conscious“.
While that might sound like strapping bit […]

Now that you have a cute new rust colored clutch, you need shoes to match!
May I suggest the “Idle” by Nine West?
Or if you want to go with a heel, how about the “Alita” by Two Lips?
I think the vintage style of the Alita would complement the clutch purse quite nicely :-)

I’ve had a request from a reader, asking for help tracking down a pair of Michael Kors “harness slouch” boots.
There’s been a small snag - the ones she wanted seem to have been discontinued & I can’t find a pair for her!
Luckily, Michael Kors is still designing slouch boots and I’ve been able to find […]
