For the past well let's say a month in a half, I have been back and forth between online and in-store looking for the perfect ankle boot. Specifically because all I currently have in my closet are heels. Boots with heels, stilettos, pumps, etc and the only flat shoe I have are my running and training sneakers. Definitely, can't wear that to work. So, you can see my feet has been crying for a relief.
It hasn't been an easy task looking for the perfect pair, the fact that I have wide feet and the only shoe that seems to work is leather shoes makes it that much harder to find a pair within my budget. The last pair I had was back when I was working with H&M. They were my perfect boot, I wore them literally everyday. Made from a hundred percent leather with a buckle on the sides they were comfortable and affordable. I had them for a year and a half, that's not bad for affordable shoes that I lived in. I eventually had to retire them now, I'm back on the hunt.
To say the least I have been learning more about wear and worth but it's still a little frustrating not being remotely close to finding a pair. One of the reasons why I usually have to wear leather shoes is because I have wide feet, most shoes are made from man made products. Which a lot of times aren't breathable. I need something my feet can breath and be comfortable in. A product that can work with my lifestyle, which is pretty busy. From work, to the office, to church, then home just to wake up and do it all over again. In between shoots and blogging I need pairs that can last for a long time. It's not always about trendy with me. I must have comfort or else my motion is out of wack.
Recently, I've tried my luck at DSW, Payless, Forever21, Nordstorm Rack, Asos, JcPenny, Modcloth and many more. I currently have a few prospects that I'm willing to go on a limb for and try. Here are my top 15 choices I will be trying within these few weeks. If your anything like me, blessed with wide feet than this list will help you too. Full reviews and hopefully a winner will be up on the blog later, so be sure to subscribe. Enjoy!!
P.S. I sneaked in some heels, I couldn't help it they were just so darn cute.

Thanks love!
DeleteSuch great picks, girlie! I adore those ones from Asos, the black with silver buckles, so edgy and cute! Finding the perfect fall/winter boot could certainly be a challenge. Have you tried your luck at Marshalls or TjMaxx?! I've had some great encounters with some designer boots that were way less than the original price! Check them out!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful day, girlie, and I can't wait to see which one(s) you selected!

Yes, I adore the ones from Asos. They are just screaming my name. However, your right! I've been thinking about going to TjMaxx and Marshalls to look for some shoes. I feel like I might get something there. I definitely share once I get them.

Hello Joy! I really love everything you picked! The selection is all to die for! I also have wide feet (bony and really wide!) so finding comfortable shoes is a challenge for me but the most of the time I suck up pain and just wear what I want (no pain, no gain!:-) I can't wait to see which pair you end up buying! Have a wonderful Sunday beautiful Joy! It was a pleasure connecting with you:-) XOXO, Jeannette

We team wide feet, lol. I know you understand the pain of finding shoes that work. However, your braver than me, I need my feet to be comfortable. I can deal with heels for a picture but to walk in, oh no.

Lightest work boots are the preference of everyone. The first quality that one footwear should have is that it needs to be comfortable. And this lightest attire can provide that satisfaction.
