Who loves shoes? I like 'em, but only flats. I hate heels (yes, I'm a wimp).

Post some cute shoe styles you like. I need to get some more fun ones for work.

I just got these in brown/tan and black last week. LOVE THEM

They are so stupidly comfy.

    I love Clark's. I have some that look like these (mine are older), also crazy comfortable. If you are looking to make the jump to a bit of a heel they are the way to go:

    Softspots are a another really comfortable brand. I have some like these but I think mine have a bigger heel:

    I have wide feet so Payless surprisingly is where i get a lot of my cute-not-walking-far-in shoes. I just got these for $20:

    ^ those are all awesome. I have a pair of black heels like the first pair. They aren't nearly as nice as my Clarks though.

    Love shoes, not into heels, thought the Clarks the OP posted a link to were very stylish!

    I am obsessed with Fluevog shoes. I could spend thousands without even getting everything I want.

    SQUEEEEE!!!! (*Hugs you*) One of my people! I've given up on heels, I'm strictly flats too. But... would you younger gals like to know why? :wink: It's because I wore heels EVERYWHERE in the 80s and 90s. I ruined my feet by being too cool to change in and out of sneakers to heels when I got to the office. Nope, I had to look fashiony all the time, even outside walking around the city, and now I've wrecked my feetses. Heels KILL me - so I'm strictly a flats girl now. I wear a lot of stuff by Aerosoles - not too fancy, but cute enough and comfy. In fact, I just picked up these last night in the black nubuck:

    I'd like to go back for the leopard print ones, but I'm not sure if the combo of leopard print plus the big flower will make them look like clown shoes. I'll have to just try them on to see how they actually look.

    Elisabat, I LOVE those boots! So pretty - but see, even a heel that low hurts me. But damn, those are super cute!

    I :heart: heels! But being 5'9 and I very rarely get the opportunity to wear them. :grumble: I work, but the dress code is uber casual...only 2 dress rules: shirts and shoes must have straps and no cut offs. So I'm usually sporting my black and hot pink nike shox, purple converse, or my cowboy boots. I do have a couple pairs of flats that I wear occasionally too though. Mainly I'm a tennis shoe addict! My dad is too and has a new pair of nikes just about every time I see him. Maybe it's genetic? Lol :laugh:

    except my nikes have matching hot pink shoelaces :)

    what my boots used to look like lol. Mine are 4+ years old and are stained from mud, water, and God only knows what else

    these are my favorite pair of heels! Dana Buchman- and they're actually really comfy too

    and my favorite pair of flats: Fergalicious :laugh: I also have some red ones with a red bow, and blue ones with a blue flower.

    Edit: sorry the stupid pics are so dang big!

    MARIE!!! The leopard flats!!! WHERE'D YOU GET THE LEOPARD FLATS??? They're fabulous, and I must have them! :heart:

    Also, your Nikes - I just got the exact same pair but in Adidas! Black with pink accents and fun pink laces - got them last week!

    Lol I actually found them hidden in a clearance section at Gordman's last year.

    Awwww.... clearance is no fun, LOL!

    Edit: Yaaaay!!! I found them at the DSW website! I may have to buy them - but see, I have flat feet, which are wide, plus I have hideous bunions from all the years I wrecked my feet with heels. PLUS, my left foot is just a teensy shade bigger than my right - whenever I buy shoes, the right is normally comfy, but the left is a shade tighter. So I have to be really careful about buying shoes online. How do you find they run? Are they true to size or bigger or smaller?

    They feel like they're pretty true to size for me. I have slightly narrow feet and they feel a little wide to me though, but other than that they fit great!

    Like some of the other gals here, I LOVE shoes.........but, alas, I am at that age where I cannot wear heals, I have to have "real" shoes (as opposed to synthetic materials), and they have to not crush my bunion, which is on TOP of my foot! Ugggh.

    I actually got a pair of great little leather booties at WalMart, of all places (cuz I almost NEVER shop there). Have had them about a year, and they are my go-to fun shoe, even WITH a bit of heel. They're quite comfy:

    I wear flats most of the time. But sometimes I feel like dressing up more with heels. If I am not walking anywhere. ;)

    I am addicted to the Kenneth Cole flats. I wait for them to go on clearance and pick up a fun color. They are really comfy.

    Like these:

    http://www.kennethcole.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12134089&cp=3075190.3075225.3075257

    There are lots of colors and styles. (You want the 925 technology in the Kenneth Cole Collection Shoes)

    They are expensive now, but they typically drop to about $50 sometime during the season and are so worth it. They have a ton of padding! (The heels do too, but they don't go on sales as much. Great for if you need a staple shoe. I have the slingbacks, and I am a heel wimp, and I can actually survive a few hours of standing in 3 inch heels)

    I'm honestly not a fan of high heels. I do have a few pairs, and I was big into them in high school and when I was younger, but I just lost interest in them, for the most part. Probably because my boyfriend (we've been together just over 3 years) is a tad shorter than me, and I know it shouldn't bother me, but when I'm 5+ inches taller than him if I wear heels...it just does. :ohwell:

    He did, however, get me these for our anniversary. I looooove the color, and the slight wedge doesn't make me a giant next to him. :laugh: They're also surprisingly comfortable, since they have this squishy little built-in insole thing.
