    Leather Ankle Bootie with Arch Support

    To kick off another shoe review, I found this perfect, neutral ankle bootie that is just about perfect! How so? Read on.. Leather: First off, the outer and inner lining are leather. Nice, buttery soft leather. Stacked heel: There is enough of a heel that it’s not a flat boot, but not enough heel to make walking around all day uncomfortable. All weather: They are waterproof! So that means you can wear them in the rain or snow and they will still look nice and keep your feet warm! Support: They have good arch support! There is a removable Dansko insole, and dansko insoles have good support in general. Your…

    Get Your (white) Kicks On!

    I’ve been loving my white velcro sneakers because they’re comfy, cute, and fun to wear! And….as I strolled my way through the Nordstroms shoe department, I was blinded by not only 1, but 2 entire shoe areas that were solely dedicated to all white, leather sneakers! Hello Spring style (despite it being January…) While I love mine because they have some cute gold detailing and seem to avoid dirt pretty easily, they are from last season and currently only available here. So I hunted around for a few other good options, and here you go! Or this cute white shoe with silver accents and good arch support! If you are…

    Run, don’t walk! Brooks Ghost 12 Running Shoes

    Style is a priority for me. But comfort is, too. One without the other is like bread without butter…..No, thank you!! If you are new to my blog, the short story is that I have incredibly high arches that needed custom orthotics this year. Helloooo 35! Ha. Seriously. So high arches call for a quality shoe to exercise in. Actually, any foot requires a quality shoe to exercise in….So take note, because I’m here to help! My brother and sister in law started running together a few years ago and swore by Brooks running shoes. They were regulars at their local running store and learned that Brooks Ghost was the…

    Listen up: shoes with arch support are essential to a good day. I know, that sounds weird and possibly something you’ve never even thought about.

    Reef Voyage Ankle Boot

    When I think of REEF, I think of flipflops. Specifically some cute blue and white ones I wore when I was 15. The name brings to mind surf shops, summer vacation, and my teenage years. Oh my…..However, I hunted high and low for ankle boots with arch support, and read hundreds of reviews on Nordstroms and Zappos. So I’m happy to give these an A+ in all categories! I loved them so much that I bought them in a metallic gold suede and then later, a camel colored suede. (Slightly different style, but the fit is exactly the same). They zip on the side, stretch to accomodate a medium to…

    Earth Shoe “Clove” Slide On

    After trying on slide ons for the past 2 years (no joke) and not finding anything that fit my shoe requirements: cushioned footbed, arch support, leather, and stylish, I found this one! The fact it happens to be gold leather and have a removable insole is just icing on the cake. It runs large, so I sized down to a 10 regular (I’m typically a 10.5) and even though it still slipped a bit in the heel, I knew it was the best I’d ever find. (I initially added a heel liner to the shoe but after a few months it slipped off but I didn’t have any additional slippage…
