This summer we brought you the Birkenstock alternative, so it only seems appropriate to also give you a winter version, the Blundstone. They’re not the most fashionable boot, but I found the plain black ones to be cute with leggings and a jacket during Fall/Winter. When you’re running out the door and need something comfortable and that’s […]
I just discovered the Nike collaboration with Liberty of London. This might be the solution to my comfy shoe dilemma. The only problem is it is hard to choose the color and style combo.
Our friend Jodi Levine had on these Tom’s—a style we hadn’t seen before. (They’re called the “bimini”.) She said they are super comfortable, and pointed out how you can adjust the fit in the back. While we can’t find the exact shoe online, here are some that are similar…this one for the color combo…and this […]
We have had multiple friends ask us what they should wear in the summer…something good for traveling. I always say a Birkenstock, but some people just want a closed toe. The issues that have been presented include “I need something good for a short hike, going on the airplane, hoofing it around a town, something […]
While I love the idea of having a cute summer sandal to wear on vacation—the truth is, if your time off involves a lot of exploring (and therefore walking), at the end of the day, you just need to feel comfortable. So, after some resistance and what feels like a million miles walked, I gave […]
The other day at work, our colleague Melissa was wearing this super cute pair of patent ballerina flats. When I asked her what they were, I was fully expecting to hear her say some very European label that I’d never heard of…but no, they are Fit Flops!!! Yes, the shoe that is designed to be […]
We love the Nike Free leather running shoe our friend Cynthia Rowley had on the other night. Unfortunately it seems like those were sold out a while ago, but when we looked at the Nike site, we found that you can get a version of them, and actually customize the color scheme. Pretty cool in […]
Yes it is nice to silently appreciate and value the reliable workhorse products we use on any (or every) given day, but one of my tasks today made me want to shout from the rooftops about my admiration for a product, a thing, a purchasable item, one of those old standbys that I buy again […]
Sure, they call them “slouchy canvas sneakers”, but these are definitely a very clever take on the French Bensimon sneakers (which cost way too much money for what they are—I think they’re in the $60 range). These cost around $18, and come in lots of great colors and patterns. You could argue that they won’t […]
Like what seems like millions of people before me, I recently started running, read the book Born to Run and got totally enamored with the whole barefoot running movement. I bought myself the Merrell Women’s Barefoot Run Dash Glove shoes and loved them. After doing some research I quickly realized that minimalist running sneakers were probably the […]
Our office has concrete floors—extremely tough on the feet—so many of us have had to become far more familiar with supportive footwear than we ever imagined we would be. Rory turned us all on to the custom fitted clogs from Clogmaster, which everyone who gets them, swears by. We love the way they look worn […]
We love how our friend Cynthia paired a wedge Chukka boot with baggy chinos (nicely peg-rolled) . The wedge makes the chukka a little more feminine and less casual. We think they’d look great as well with skinny jeans. She got hers at L.L. Bean for a song, before they sold out in every single […]
