9 Chic Shoe Rules

Thanks! . . . but need something more.

yes, wear can i get the yellow shoes? i went to article and there were no references on the shoes! shame on harper's bazaar!

I'm from Planet Merrell. Before I found them, I had a heckuva time finding anything to fit my size 9 1/2 wide feet. Heels are out for me. Some other species wear them well, but can't walk in them. What's the point?

OMG. You know, I've been wearing heels for years - and I've also worn the comfort shoes. Sorry. I have two pair of workboots (Doc's and a pair of timberlands), 2 pair of mocs (Minnetonka's) and the rest are heels - all 200 pair. Boots, sandles, blah...blah..blah. I could run in them - just made sure they were perfectly comfortable when I tried them on. Made sure I could walk in them, and I work in NYC.
Look for the 50 year old wearing the most awesome shoes you can find down in soho - that's me.

I want the yellow shoes too!!!

Wow, guess I'm an exception when it comes to being a shoe fan.
I don't see the reason to buy so many shoes; one pair of each is good enough as it is.
Black goes great with everything, so no need to look around much.
Also, I suck at high heels.

and yet they only show heels lol

I used to wear high heels every single day at my old job. Now I work where it is not necessary. I can wear sneakers or even SLIPPERS to work if I wanted to. Jeans or sweatpants, too. I'm not one for the 'nightlife', so I don't necessarily need heels for that, either. I guess I've gotten too used to this because you could no longer talk me into a pair of heels if you paid me to wear them. I've gotten too comfy with my current situation!

The ankle is *WAY* to short to hem your trousers, unless they're super skinny jeans. For the best look hem them to the base of the upper - where the sole of the shoe and the upper meet. Then they won't look like you stole your grandma's clamdiggers and you can wear them with any height of shoe and not look silly. Or better yet, decide ahead of time whether you will wear flats or heels with a pair of pants and have them hemmed accordingly. There's nothing wrong with longer pants, particularly if you're under 35 - you just don't want them breaking a lot and looking sloppy in the front, or dragging in the back.

i love shoes!!!!!!!!..how I wish I could get any one of them!!!!!
its just so sad,,,I can't have one...in short I can't afford......huhuhuhuhuhuhuuh!!!!

I want the red shoes!

Don't wear wedges for outdoors if you have weak ankles like me! That's just asking for trouble, OW

Women wear such stupid shoes! Men wear comfortable shoes, lucky guys!

Oh by the way, Torrid makes some shoes that are Wide in size. Some are nice and fashionable.

I want the red one...lol

And when the shoemakers start making 9WW shoes..... I can only find tennis shoes that come in a good/comfortable 9W or 9WW.

NOBODY makes fun wide shoes!!!

"Even if you love a pair, if you can't walk in them, don't buy them". What are they talking about? You buy them no matter what! That's the beauty of it!

Uhhh I disagree with a few of these! A chunky heel or platform can be just the right touch to a dainty/girly dress. "Mix Match" is very in you just need to know how to do it right!

mm i love heels, but i wont wear them if they are short ill just opt for a wedge that doesnt look tall but still give me the height

I firmly believe that a heal should be polite and discretely sex. It should get along with everyone. It should be a pleasant neutral shade with good curves. It absolutely needs to be comfortable enough to walk a mile in pavement if necessary or stand up in for several hours. It should also be on clearance or sale if possible.

I love me a sexy heal, but I don't have tons of money to be throwing around, so if it doesn't meet those criteria it is out. A beautiful yellow pump that I can't wear with jeans or slacks or a dress does me no good.
