These beauties are now mine

Their company sells shoes with interesting, beautiful designs that have a taste of the trends but definitely stand out from the standard fair your going to see most women wear. They can be on the pricey side, but oh my are they comfortable and very well made. And you’ll stand out.

What’s on my current wishlist?:

Look at that thick, beautiful heel. I need a teal pair of shoes, I don't care what anyone says!

These blue and silve rheels are a must. They are the kind of shoe you just buy and then build an outfit around, because they are that fabulous!

Black ankle boots are a MUST for fall. And I don't have any. So, yes please!

Speaking of heels, most comfort seekers craft something flat and easy to move in, making sneakers an obvious choice. But wanting comfort isn’t a free pass to look like you’re on your way to a mall walkers group. We recommend owning a pair or two of trendy sneakers by Puma or Lacoste for some lucious lace-wear, or perhaps one of their Velcro designs. (What’s more comfortable than Velcro?) Plus, you can find these brands at hefty discounts at retailers like DSW.

Next, if you’re thinking of throwing a sweatshirt on over your jeans, remember that you can achieve the same amount of comfort with tons more style by choosing a cardigan instead. Available in a number of soft materials (we love Alpaca blends, but it’s all good), cardigans are a great way of saying “I’m comfortable and I care about my look.”

Similar to cardigans, knit blazers can really dress up an otherwise sloppy outfit without robbing you of any comfort. These are cut and styled exactly like regular blazers, but are made out of soft stretch materials, typically with a cotton base.

Don’t you just feel comfy already?

Why put on his tie when you can wear his shoes? If you enjoy seeing female versions of men’s styles, you’ll love oxfords, inspired by the classic footwear from Scotland and England.

Here are three of our favorite looks:

Thelma’s Oxford by Pour La Victoire — $288

Though somewhat pricey, these patent leather shoes are to die for, featuring two-toned awesomeness, a wingtip front, and old-style perforations. You’ll also get a slight boost to your height without losing your faux-masculinity, as these babies sport a tasteful 1 inch heel.

Two Tone Oxford by Deena & Ozzy — $38

These flats offer pretty much the same look as the above Pour La Victoire pair, except for being, well, flat. Either way, this two toned color scheme will look great with a pair of dark wash skinny jeans in blue or black denim.

Grey Patent Oxford by a.ok — $52

Finally, shoe lovers can access their inner funk with this chic pair featuring that patent patent shine (ha!). We love the pointed toes, one inch heel, and pseudo-metallic glimmer.

You can pair these oxfords with a button down shirt and pants to embrace your inner tomboy (or Wall Streeter), or opt for a skirt and dress to endow your outfit with some juxtapositional flair.

Right now, New York fashion is all about finding a balance between funky and professional styles, with an eye towards what’s sexy. It’s more practical than runway fashion.

Let’s be honest, most of the outfits you see paraded down the runway are not appealing for day-to-day wear. In New York, shoppers like to see real clothes for real people, which means affordability and comfort are important considerations.

For example, ballet flats are really hot right now – they are super simple, very comfortable, and available in a variety of colors, patterns, and styles. With the right outfit, ballet shoes can look as sexy as four-inch pumps, but they are usually much more comfortable and go with just about anything. They really embody the concept that fashion is not all about looking good – it’s about feeling good as well!

Another trendy New York item is the infamous clutch purse. This is usually an oblong or rectangular item, often “clutched” in the hand rather than supported by a strap. There are so many different types of clutches, from shiny metallic leather to bright green embossed crocodile.

Finally, crystal bracelets are another big-ticket item, especially in California. The crystals in question are made by Swarovski, and they come in an assortment of designs that accommodate every mood and style. I found an ice blue and clear diamond bracelet that I absolutely adore.

Right now, there are several different styles and brands of boots that are really in style. With so many quirky and fun options, it’s easy to find a pair (or five) perfect for you.

First on the list is the winter-friendly over-the-knee boot, which keeps your warm without looking too bulky for skirts and dresses. But if you’re more into pants, over-the-knee boots also look great tucked into jeans and leggings. These boots are available in a variety of heel sizes too, so you can balance fashion and comfort to your liking.

I hate to do it, but since we’re listing the most popular types of boots, there’s one brand I can’t help but mention: Uggs. These boots are super warm and durable, especially in the winter. You can choose from various colors such as camel, tan, black, and even white. Honestly, white seems like an odd choice to me considering how slushy and dirty the streets can get after it snows. But hey, to each her own!

Looking for something a little sexier? Check out a dressy leather zip boot, a fashionable choice that will have you feeling hot and looking the part.

Most important, you need to find a boot that fits your needs. Into comfort and warmth? Slip into some Uggs. All about looking chic? Try leather.

Of course, the shoes we love range from all sorts of patterns, colors, styles, and accessories. Around this time of year you might get invited to a lot of different holiday parties for Christmas, New Years, and even Easter – so what shoes should you invest in? Well, your final choice depends on you, but here are a few elegant and fun choices for under $100.

Our first option is a pair of edgy metallic booties. These booties may look a little odd at first, but they are helping a lot of women dazzle the night away! Booties are like boots, except they have a lot less material covering up the shoe. They are also often high heeled and very glitzy. On the other hand, if you want to go for something a little less dressy, you could consider a pair of glammed-up sneakers. These come from Converse (of course!) and have a silvery glitter to them.

Great with jeans, mini skirts, or anything else you want to wear, our second shoe is the epitome of comfortable, a shoe that everyone has been wearing these days – the ballet flat. Ballet flats are simple, super-comfortable shoes that are also very much in style! You can choose from all sorts of materials, colors, and extra accessories, such as a Mary Jane-style flat with an added strap.
