So I realized a few weeks ago that I only really had one pair of winter shoes (other than tennis shoes – gasp) and that those, although still in decent shape had stretched to the point that they would probably be better for a foot that’s a half size larger. So I’ve been shopping for a few good winter shoes to add to my (summer) collection. 🙂

I managed to buy a pair of really nice black dress shoes at Walmart for about $17 and they match the purse (for about the same price) I picked up at JC Penny (I’ll post pictures some other day – the ones I took this afternoon were fuzzier than I thought.) But these still aren’t going to keep my feet warm.

So today while I as converting some audio files I shopped on Zappos for a bit and came up with this list of possibilites (there are a few summer shoes in there.):

My favorites are the Ugg La Jolla in Shadow for a nice winter boot. But as you might notice in my pdf of the shopping cart, they are not available in my size (in fact, I scourred the web and only found them in sizes 5, 6, 11, and 12. I found a few in the cork color in some other sizes but not many… even on ebay.)

I’ve tried on uggs in the past and couldn’t bring myself to buy the ones that were trendy because I think they are mildy ugly – but they are heaven on your feet (I couldn’t justify in my mind an $80 house slipper or else I would probably have a pair already.)

Anyway – the others have a fair shot (probably that pair of slip on uggs will end up purchased soon because those I can see leaving the house in them… casual dress of course.)

The black easy spirit slingbacks on in that pdf look very similar to the shoes I picked up at Walmart.

Decisions decisions…. anyone have any other suggestions? I need comfort, style and variety.
