Shoes for little feet

I have not spoken of a couple of my obsessions lately so need a fix, come along for the ride. It will be fun, trust me I am female, I blog and so therefore need no further proof.

That aside, welcome to shoes for little feet!


These shoes are made of 100% leather and feature a soft suede sole, as recommended by the experts. The elasticised ankle collar and fastening strap keep the shoes fitted snugly whilst the textured suede sole provides superior grip when crawling and walking.

Hush Puppies

Ooops, love of food took over! 


STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP

Hush Puppies!

The ultimate baby boomer shoe!
G.A. Krause founded the company in 1883. It originally was a utility company. However, in 1903, Krause built a shoe factory in Michigan
(Krause is my maiden name, so long history of shoe nuts in the family) 

In 1958, Wolverine founded the Hush Puppy brand shoe. It was made from a method of pigskin tanning for the US military because the material was so durable.
The shoe concept was based as a casual shoe for post war suburbia.

Cupcakes




What about this phenomenon that is sweeping the world!
How far has a cupcake come, from those Butterfly cakes baked by the dozens, to cupcakes in a jar! 
All in my lifetime!

Socks


 



Lets get this straight by SOCKS I DO NOT mean Internet protocol that facilitates the routing of network packets between client–server applications via a proxy server.

All sorted? Cool
The sock we are talking about  is an item of clothing worn on the feet that can set you apart and make you shine! These warm and fuzzies warm your feet, ward off illness, keep your shoes smelling fresh, and ensure a more comfortable walk. So why don't more people wear their socks loud and proud? Even if bright purple bed socks are not appropriate in all settings of your life, you can hide them under your clothing. When that little snippet of wacky sock peeks out at the world from under your pants leg, people will notice, and your socks will work to be your conversation starter. Before you know it, you'll have more friends, success, and comfort. Want more conversation quicker then wear odd ones, be individual (and there is always another pair the same at home)

Everyday shoes

Okay, so we have covered the "Good Shoe" 
so lets move onto
the ones you wear the rest of the time

This is a bit of a minefield when selecting these.
Practicality enters (cringe), durability (yew), uniform (boring) and purpose driven.
Purpose driven gives the most scope for your personality to shine through
so let me explain.

A shoe says a lot about you so do you really want to be known for those $1.69 thongs?
I am hoping the answer was a most emphatic NO. (if not contact me as there is far more for you to learn and a foot makeover is needed urgently!)

I do not wear thongs, ever, on my feet anyway.
Now I hear you say "what about Havvy's" 
Ha! Havaiana's are to thongs as Billabong is to t-shirts and  Peter Alexander is to pyjamas
A t shirt, pair of PJ's and a thong still just that with or without a brand name only non brands have longer fashion life.

So what do I wear?
Mules, as a preferred foot wear
Crocs 
"great for sand, water, mud, bit like the thongs of the Gum Boot world, for kids and not fashionable!" 
Is that what you just said?

Well let me introduce to the wide world of "Crocs"

 Work or Play: these 2 are perfect

 Driving, grocery shopping or visiting relatives

The ultimate in casual, yet practical and still colour co ordinating with style








Nothing there for you yet? Hard to please?
I like you even more now!

 Well if you  wear these styles then you get the added benefit of support and adjustable straps.





and for special occasions when only Gum Boots will do, 
I implore you to do it with a flair and panache
So get down at your feet, they've done a lot of work for a lot of years walking you around, 
Show them some appreciation
 Pedicures and massages are not luxuries, 

Buy proper fitting shoes,
BUT DO IT WITH STYLE



Shoes


Well this is long overdue
Anyone who knows me would have expected this to be my first post
if not the only topic on my Blog
Never one to deprive those that admire the good things in life
here we are at last!


 This is what I am wearing now
Major trendsetter stuff!



There are rules for shoes and an order in which they are stored
Fanatical? No way!
Organised? Not in my vocabulary!
Practical? Oh Yeah!


There are categories and all shoes fall into a category, just one category ever.
There are "The shoes that kill, but heavens they look good"
This is reserved for those must have ones 
 and is accompanied by a
 Handbag and full set of Bling
and a pair to wear while driving
if I am driving
 but a Limousine could be warranted for these shoes!
