If the Shoe Hurts…

August 2, 2013,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I’ve gotten a lot of e-mails from my more mature readers wanting to know if there’s a cute, practical alternative to some of the crazy shoes that I wear. And it’s true, most people outside of their 20s can’t be wearing sky high heels every day. Fortunately, there are a lot of great alternatives. These Wolky shoes from City Shoes in Portsmouth are a great option for women who are past the stage of blisters and band aids.

The neutral leather straps make them wearable with almost anything but the wedge heel and padded insole keeps them comfortable all day long.

    Very nice outfit! Although I must say that I was also a fan of the outfit you were wearing yesterday when I met you at Panera. I feel like my sister may like this site 🙂

    Wow this is such a good article idea. Lots of other fashion bloggers don’t consider that we can’t all wear stilettos! Thank you. Will check out Wolky and City Shoes.
