Your Questions About Women's Shoes

Jenny asks…

Where can I donate 400 pairs of size 7 women's shoes?

My grandma recently passed away and she had at least 400 pairs of size 6 - 8 shoes. They are from the past 3 decades. I live near a goodwill and salvation army, but would they take that many? Also, she had a ton of clothes. Or, should I just pitch them?

Our pick of the answers:

There's an organization called Share Your Soles Foundation. They distribute gently used shoes in several countries (including Appalachia in the US) to people who desperately need them. They have drop off spots in many states. Check them out at: http://www.shareyoursoles.org/

Nancy asks…

What are the best women's shoes for swing dancing?

I've always danced in my dress shoes, whatever I had at home. Now I'm going to a wedding and am looking forward to buying a dress and shoes. I'd like to buy shoes that are usable for daily wear if possible; I'd rather not spring for dedicated dance shoes, as we don't get out too often (2 babies!) and are on a tight budget. Is there a certain style and sole that are good? Flats, I imagine, or a low heel, smooth soles...? (I have over a month to go, could possibly order online, prefer to try shoes in a store, will take any advice you offer!)

Aris Allen is a very popular line... Http://www.arisallen.com/ Take a look at their website and see if it gives you any ideas. You can also frequently find people selling used pairs on ebay that are usually in pretty good shape.
