5 Super Shoe-Buying Tips!
1. You can tell if these boots (or any other shoes) are made for walking… If you can’t wear a pair of shoes comfortably for more than an hour, don’t bother. Your face will show your pain. 2. Never buy a shoe that wrinkles when you flex your foot. Also, buy late in the day, when your feet are the largest.
3. When it comes to sandals, keep it simple. You’ll get more use out of them. Be sure straps are well made, not too tight or too delicate. Avoid sandals that cut any area of the foot.
4. Flats look best with long skirts and slim pants.
5. When you’re bargain shoe shopping, buy brown. Inexpensive shoes look richer in natural browns than in black.
