Shoe Stretching – Bella Vita Athena
Posted on December 11, 2011 | No CommentsDear Shoe Lady, I have just received my Bella Vita Athena leather shoe size 6.5. The width is good but they have peep hole toe which is just a little long.

Patent Leather after Labor Day?
Posted on December 8, 2011 | No CommentsDear Shoe Lady, Can patent leather be worn after labor day? Or would a flat leather alligator/snake pattered leather be more versatile? Dear Martha, Years ago, patent leather was a spring and summer staple, but nowadays, it’s uber-trendy to wear in the fall and winter. One good rule of thumb is the style/color should be appropriate to the season. Dark colors like purple, navy, black, maroon and grey are fashionable this winter. Comfortable shoe with a 2.5 inch heel suitable for work or paired with a dark jean. Or try a crinkled patent leather with a pop of color to... -

Durable Winter Shoes
Posted on November 4, 2011 | No CommentsDear Shoe Lady, I go to school in Rochester and there is a lot of snow. Because of that, there is salt everywhere during the winter. What shoes will best endure the salt while looking good to match every outfit? I have UGGs but I’m afraid the salt will eat them, even though it is lambskin. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Hi Heidi, Thank you for your inquiry, and that is an important shoe concern. One of the keys to shoe longevity is periodically cleaning them. If you know that your shoes will become exposed to... -
What Color Shoes to Wear with a Red Dress (day)
Posted on October 5, 2011 | No CommentsDear Shoe Lady, I’ve got a red knee length Karen Millen dress and want to know what color shoes are best to go with it. I have worn it for a wedding and wore silver shoes and silver bag but was wondering if nude shoes would go? Black looked too hard and red seem too much. What do you think? Thanks, Jody Dearest Jody, As much as it pains me to say this, you don’t need me. You understand perfectly what to wear. But, since you asked…… Nude shoes usually mean a beige tone shoe. Without seeing the dress, I... -

Kitten Heels: Heels Without The Sacrifice
Posted on April 20, 2011 | No CommentsQ: Dear Shoe Lady, I love the dramatic look of high heels, but in reality prefer extended comfort. Any suggestions? __Stephanie A: Hi Stephanie, A happy compromise would be kitten heels. I have been seeing more of them around lately as one of the Spring 2011 trends. They will give you the longer wear while fulfilling your heel criteria. The attention of the higher heel can be redirected to the drama of a stunning pattern or finish of the shoe to make up for a lower heel, and save your feet! This orange Waikiki slide by Forgotten Soles boasts a...
