We have to confess. We have always had a shoe problem. We’ve been cursed with wide-ish feet and high arches, and finding comfortable shoes is nearly impossible. We realized this weekend that we have no normal/weekend shoes. We were shopping with our wonderful, lovely mom and we were definitely wearing gold ballet flats with jeans. We don’t wear sneakers much, and sometimes boots are just too much trouble. So, our ‘normal’, every day shoes are these gold ballet flats. We must note that we’ve been doing this far longer than we’ve known who Amy Winehouse is; we apparently just have similar taste in shoes.
However, we think that we would like to wear gold shoes all the time. It’s fairly neutral, and we haven’t yet had an instance where we’ve felt out of place for wearing them. And who knew there were gold shoes of all types? Here are our favorites!
Above, the gold ballet flats in question. They’re from Target, they’re dirt cheap, and they’re comfortable. We may actually order 2 more pair as soon as we post this.
Xhiliration Sable Gold Ballet Flats, $10.99
We saw these at (gasp!) Easy Spirit this weekend, and we actually love them. The leather felt REALLY soft, they’re not too pointy, and the heel is a nice height. We’re not entirely sure about gold heels, but we think we love them. And since they’re Easy Spirit, we’re willing to bet they’re going to be comfortable. They were on sale in the store, though.
Easy Spirit Input, $79
We like that these are almost like real shoes. And plus, sometimes fabric ballet flats can be a bit rough. Here, same general shape, and leather! Woo!
BC Lemon Tarts, $55.95
