Lately, I’ve enjoyed wearing Jessica Simpson high heel sandals.  She has a new, very cute platform in neon pink bright snake leather.  This cork covered 4 inch heel has an adjustable strap at the heel with a buckle closure.

Several of my friends have a problem with foot slippage.  Some of them prefer to buy heels that are a little too narrow in hopes of getting a better fit.  One of the advantages of Jessica Simpson shoes is their tendency to run narrow.  So it is possible to get a little less slippage from her brand of footwear.

Jessica Simpson “Hanson” Platform Sandals

Wouldn’t it be great if the shoe manufacturers could give us shoes that had thicker padding for the ball of our feet.  Seems like that would help prevent our feet from sliding forward.  And if you’re in need of more arch support, it should help with that problem, too.

We suggest you take a look at the “Hanson” by Jessica Simpson for a fabulous looking open toe shoe in neon pink.  Sizes range from 5 to 11 in M standard width.  These platforms should give you a better fit (but not too narrow) without smashing your toes together.

We wanted a pair of wide width boots with high heels that were both comfortable and good looking.  Well, we were so pleased when we found this boot from Bouquets - “Bess”.  It combines the good looks of a 2 1/2 inch boot and comfort to match their style.

We also like the classy touch they added with the ornamental strap and buckle which gives this design a nice touch.

These boots are made with a microfiber material which comes in different colors including navy, brown and black.  The wide widths range from M, W and WW.

The “Bess” is best suited for women with average to slim size calves.  Made with a 14 1/2 inch circumference and a 16 inch shaft, these boots don’t work well for women with larger legs since there is no stretch in the upper part of the boot.  But, all in all, we like the style and looks of this high shaft design.

Looking for an amazing style of wide calf boots?  If so, then this is it.  The David Tate “Cruise” is a beautiful pair of wide calf boots crafted with a gorgeous European fashion design.  The emphasis is on the soft calfskin upper that captures the look of a scrunch boot.

It has a 16 inch shaft and a 2 1/4 inch leawood stacked heel that adds a very nice fashion touch.  And it’s made with a padded insole and an inside zipper for easy off and on.

But for all you women who have hard to fit, plus size calves, this may be the boot for you to try.  The quality name of David Tate brings this to you in sizes ranging from 4 up to size 13.

And the important part is the large calf sizes available for ladies with strong, athletic leg muscles.  The medium width calf measurements are approximately 14-16 inches.  If you order the wide widths, you’ll receive a pair that measures 16-18 inches.  And if you have extra large calves, then the wide wide width is sized at approximately 18-20 inches.

Take a close look at these wide calf boots from David Tate “Cruise”.  They might be the large fit you’re looking for.

.

This stylish wedge heel boot is an excellent choice for slim calf muscles.  Gabriella Rocha “Soleil” has created a good looking pull-on boot with a leather fold-down collar that actually fits women with skinny legs.

You’ll notice a round toe front with a zipper closure on the instep side. These are comfortable boots that are really made for narrow calves, so if you have big legs this is not your style.

Wear them with skinny jeans or a mini skirt and you’ll have a great fashion look.  We wish the Gabriella Rocha Soleil had a little more foot padding, so you might want to consider an insole.  If you do, then a half size larger could be a better fit.

Overall, we certainly like this wedge heel boot, especially if you have smaller legs and want a comfortable fit.

.

Pumps she will love.  These beautiful open toed shoes by Nina are styled with an elegant satin upper.  Crafted with a rhinestone embellishment, 3 1/4 inch heel and leather sole, this open toe pump comes in black, chocolate and powdersand colors.

You’ll receive quick delivery should you need to wear them to a party this weekend or maybe an upcoming wedding that requires a gorgeous shoe with lots of comfort.

Nina “Cameka” open toed pumps available in sizes 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5 and 10, medium width.

Many of our readers just adore the stacked heel, slouchy boots by Michael Kors “Domino”.

If you’re looking for high heeled, Kors boots that make a great fashion statement, then you might want to consider this one.  This “slouch look” boot has a 3 1/2 inch heel, 14 inch shaft and circumference of 15 1/2 inches which is perfect if you need a wide calf boot to add to your wardrobe.  Keep this in mind if you have smaller or thin legs.

The rubber sole, knee high boots look great with just about everything - dresses, skirts and skinny jeans that can be tucked in for a cute effect.

Colors are available in a variety of rich suedes such as tmoro, luggage and loden.  And one more tip, if your feet are between sizes or if you plan to wear heavy socks, then consider moving up 1/2 size to get a better fit.  Some women found this to be a better option for them.  Of course, you can always exchange them for a different size and they will pay for the return shipping.

Overall, we liked this footwear for women who want chic, stylish slouchy boots.  Michael Kors delivers with this one.

.

One of the hot styles this season are ankle boots.

We found this fabulous ankle bootie by Guess “Kamilia” that will look great with a pair of skinny jeans or leggings.

With a 3 1/2 inch heel, these women’s boots have a leather upper and stylish pointy toe.  And we like the inside zipper that provides a nice, snug fit for your foot.  Available in black or brown leather in standard width.

We think you’ll agree that the “Kamilia” ankle boot by Guess are gorgeous booties that will give you a great look with black tights or a short skirt.

.

Contemporary high heel platform shoes & sandals like the Donald J Pliner “Gypsy”, will add an element of chic to your wardrobe.

With a 4 1/4 inch heel, this criss cross platform slide sandal is offered in a stunning variety of colors - bronze distress metallic, black nubuck, and faded denim antique metallic.  Sizes range from 5.0 to size 11.

Many women find that the comfort of the shoe does not diminish because of the high heels.  Looks great with jeans or a dress.

One shopper found them to be a bit narrow, so I’d recommend the regular width in these Donald Pliner platform shoes, unless you happen to need a vary narrow size.

.

The newest footwear trend this season is the flat riding boot.  We like to wear them with jeans or try them with a skirt for work attire.

Here’s an exceptional flat riding boot from Anne Klein “Copenhagen” that caught our attention recently.

This beautiful Italian boot is designed with a simple, sleek riding style.  With a flat heel and round toe, it offers a fantastic look.  The leather quality is outstanding and adds to the overall comfort you’ll notice in the Copenhagen.

Made with a 1 inch stacked heel, it’s crafted with an inside zipper making it easy to get on and off.  It has a 16 1/2 shaft with a 14 1/4 inch circumference.  If you have wide calf muscles, you might need to have these stretched a little, but it’s absolutely worth it!

Right now, the Anne Klein flat riding boots have a generous price reduction, but we don’t know how long that will last.  Take a look now.

After seeing Mandy Moore wearing a pair of off-white gladiator sandals, we just had to check out the Frye Lola sandal. We found a fabulous design in this roman style sandal that looks and feels amazing.

We liked the strap that actually holds it on your foot - no need to worry about these shoes falling off your feet.  The leather upper shows some very nice contrast stitching and the adjustable strap really does give a custom fit.

Colors are available in brown sugar, gold and off-white.  The Frye Lola gladiator sandal continues to be a best seller.  And we can understand why.

.

Previously, we pointed out how much we like the Franco Sarto “Hoagie” boots.  Women with thin legs rave about the excellent fit and great comfort they get from this boot.

Because of the popularity of these boots, size availability is limited now.

Go here to see ALL Franco Sarto Boots.

One woman said the chunky 2 inch heel was just what she was looking for, because they’re not too high.  This allows her to wear them all day without hurting her feet.  Since she has skinny calves, these knee high boots were perfect for her.

The  Franco Sarto boots look great with a skirt or even under jeans instead of wearing an ankle boot.

We’re so impressed with the fashion design of the Rockport Rutland mid heel boots, that we thought we would leave a few more comments for the last time this week.

One woman said that after receiving her boots so quickly, she could not believe how comfortable they are.  She has injury prone ankles and high arches so walking in comfort is not something that comes easy to her.  She usually wears Eccos or Stoneflys just to get through her workday.

The Rockport Rutland is a surprisingly stylish boot that she can wear to work or out for the evening.  She gets lots of compliments and loves the fact that she is able to comfortably wear beautiful boots with heels and pointy toes.

After attending so many parties and standing up in high heel shoes for what now seems like an endless number of days, let’s talk about a pair of comfortable, casual loafers.

Go to the Complete Line of Fitzwell Dress Shoes Here

The Fitzwell “Yvonne II” is a modest, casual shoe for women who want to give their feet some relief.  With a slip-on style and gel insoles in the forefoot & heel, these shoes would be great to wear to the office.

Made with a 1 1/4 inch heel, you can pick from brown or black calf leather or patent.  It’s also available in a wide width should your feet need a little extra space.

The black patent leather adds a dressy touch to these otherwise very casual shoes.  Women are pleased with the way they look when wearing them with either jeans or dress pants.

If you have wide feet you’ll most likely enjoy an excellent fit with Fitzwell casual shoes.  But if shoes generally run a little big for your foot size, then you might want to drop down 1/2 size.  Of course, you can always get two sizes (or two colors) and return one pair at no cost to you since they pay for your return shipping.

We had so many favorable comments about these amazing Rockport Rutland boots, that we wanted to share some more thoughts with you.

With beautiful detailing and extra deep heel cushion that provides long lasting comfort, many women shared their feelings about these mid-high heel boots.

The Rockport Rutland is not only stylish, but comfortable as well.  This boot has a classic style and heel height that goes with everything.

One woman normally prefers a lower heel for everyday wear since she is tall, but she finds these boots are fantastic for her.  Super looking with a lot of comfort.  She purchased a second pair so she has them in both black and brown.

.

I know what you’re thinking.  Is it really possible that Rockport makes high fashion boots?  They do and they are fabulous!  The leather on these boots is excellent.  Touch the calfskin upper and you’ll think “buttery soft”.

With a 2 1/2 inch heel, the Rockport Rutland looks great.  But most important, they are soooo comfortable.  Crafted with a full side zipper, they come in black or java color and standard or wide width.

Now, let’s talk about who these boots are for and how to get a great fit.  If you have normal size calves or maybe require little larger calf size, then this boot is probably for you.  The 14 inch circumference is not really for women with extra large calf muscles.

Keep in mind that if you try them on late in the day, your feet and legs will be naturally be slightly swollen.  Put them on in the morning and you’ll get a more accurate feel for these lovely, fashion boots.  And remember, the top part will stretch a little.

So if your a woman who needs a gorgeous, pointy toe boot for normal to a little above average calf size, then try the Rockport Rutland fashion boots.  You’ll be pleasantly surprised, just like we were.

We just can’t get enough of open toe shoes because we wear them so often.  What if I need a peep toe in a size wide enough for my foot and gorgeous enough for my best friend’s wedding next month?  Well, I can usually go online and find the perfect shoe to match the new dress hanging in my closet.  Or maybe we just need a new pair for the office. Many brands of open toed shoes are so comfortable you can wear them all day at work.  Going out for the evening?  Often times I’ll reach for my black snake leather Bouquets Candy.

Speaking of this shoe, we think the Bouquets “Candy” is a classy pump you might want to look at.  This is a cute shoe that seems to fit most women’s feet who need a wide size to accomodate their foot if it’s a little larger than normal.

Here’s another one you’re sure to like.  The Fitzwell Lilly is a very distinctive, hot fashion shoe crafted in a D’Orsay style.  If you need something like a size 11 or 12 wide in a young, stylish 4 inch heel, then you’ll want to check out these cute peep toe shoes.

We’ve commented before on how we fell in love with these shoes.  With 3 1/2 inch high heels, you’ll find the Nine West Carlen open toe pump will help create that long leg, trendy look we’d all like to have.

Last time, we forgot to mention that these peep toe shoes come in dark brown leather.  Or you can choose patent leather in the following colors:  dark red, black, ivory or medium natural patent.

If you have any doubt about how fantastic you’ll look in these stacked high heels, then just read the amazing reviews of Guess “Carrie” shoes.

These classic stilettos with smooth leather uppers are available in colors such as black, brown, red, pink or white.  Also available in black or red patent.

Many women recommend them for both work and casual wear.  We find that if you order the “Carrie” in suede or patent, then you should pick a half size larger.  You’ll usually get a better fit, because these materials don’t stretch the way leather does.

You’d think that with the pointy toe and 3 1/2 inch heel, these stilettos would not be comfortable.  But it seems that women who order them 1/2 size bigger (patent or suede) than their regular size are very happy with the comfort of these chic pumps by Guess.

But if you want these shoes in leather, then just go with your normal size since the leather “Carrie” will stretch as you break them in.

This 3 inch heel pump has stretch nappa, suede or silk elastic uppers that conform perfectly around your foot to create a beautiful image.

Women love the versatility of these pumps which can give your outfit a casual or dressy look. Or wear them to work with your favorite trousers.  One woman who stands on her feet all day was amazed by the comfort of these shoes, even at the end of a very long day. You’ll get classic styling with this pair of navy platform shoes from Donald J Pliner “Idas”.

Many women have said they absolutely love these standard width, 3 1/2 inch heel boots with a side zip for easy on and off.  I would pick the light brown distressed leather, but you can also choose from attractive colors such as brown, black and dark brown.

One woman whose closet is filled with fashion footwear, commented on the supple leather and how great they looked on her feet.  The Nine West boots (Botamy) were a great fit, especially for her slightly wider foot.  Very comfy.
