Your Questions About Shoes For Women

Mary asks…

What are the most comfortable shoes for women?

I am looking for comfortable casual shoes. I have looked at Crocs, Berks, Uggs, the lot, but I don't want to commit to any of them. I am not rich, so the cheaper they are the better. What would you recommend?

Our pick of the answers:

Doggers...on sale at CVS for $2.50. Ugly as sin, but with possible heal spur, I can't walk even around the house without them. It's like walking on plastic pillows...It's a lot more comfortable than it sounds.

Mandy asks…

Why do women own so much shoes?

Men generally have 4 pairs. one for walking (a pair of trainers). one for work (shoes) maybe another pair of more casual shoes and normally a spare set. Some women can have an ammount excessive of this. Can you give me 10+ examples of different occasions where 10+ different pairs of shoes are actually needed or is it just personal preference?

Our pick of the answers:

Shoes are important! They aren't just something to cover your bare feet with and walk around in. About 1/4 of all the bones in your body are located in your feet. The average person walks about the same distance as four times around the earth in their lifetime! So as you can see, shoes are quite important to us...and especially to women! For them, shoes are more like accessories...like a handbag or hat. I can tell you this: I have seen my math teacher for about three months and she only repeated her shoes once or twice during that period of time! She has every color you can think of, all in different shades. How does she combine her colors with her clothing? She usually has a "theme color" for the day. For example, purple skirt with a plain white v-neck blouse. Then a small purple necklace and matching jewllery. Then to go with that she wears purple flip flops. Might not look appealing in your head, but the result is quite nice when you see her in person. You don't need to know about the latest fashion to look all trendy. Just match some colors and that would do the trick. How? Well, shoes are a start. 10 different occasions? 1.) 1-3 pairs for exercising. I am still a student and already have about 5 pairs. Most of them I don't wear, just keep buying in new ones and leaving the old ones at the back of the closet. Trends change and my whole wardrobe changes too. 2.) 1-3 pairs for work. I do not work yet (like work in an office) but I have 3 pairs of formal shoes. One for prom nights, dances.., one is abit casual (for school), and one for concerts. My aunt is 25 and I know that she owns 9 pairs of black pumps that look very similar. 3.) Casuals. I've got...about 6 or 7 pairs of just casual shoes---shoes that I wear to school, when I go shopping, just ordinary occassions. A trend in my school at the moment is skinny jeans with Nike's (they have raised soles). I've got two pairs of those and three pairs of flats---shoes that look like high heels in the front but actually don't have any heel. 4.) Flip flops. Men wear them too, but mostly young men and teenagers. They are mainly for the summer, but here in Shanghai it doesn't get cold until about November so students in my school wear them all the time. Flip flops just build up over the years. I know that I can still fit into flip flops from 3 or 5 years ago. It's quite unusual for my school dress code to allow flip flops and slippers, but then again I guess other schools allow that too? I wear flip flops when I go shopping, at school, at home, to the beach, to the park. 6.) Boots. For fall and winter, possibily during spring too. If you walk around in the streets in Shanghai, you would see millions of Eskimo boots...they are round, furry leather on the outside and fur in the inside. Very comfortable to walk in. Many brands are doing these boots but mostly Uggs. Mostly just teenagers wear these Uggs, but it's becoming people in the 20s' trends as well. These boots give out a young, cute look. They look great with a winter jacket that has some fur on the hood. Boots are an essential need for women who try to stay in fashion. Just like other shoes there are billions of different designs. Some are high heeled while others are flat, suitable for students. 5.) I guess there's no exact "ocassion" for each pair of shoes...like I said before, women think of shoes as accessories, and it's quite fun to buy alot of shoes even though you don't need it. The average woman buys 8 pairs of shoes each year.
