Every time the daffodils flower, it sends me into a shoe tizz.
Winter: dm Chelsea boots. Clumpy shoes.
Easy.
So my problem.

  1. Love hamble oak, but they only seem to come in black and beige now. Is anything similar in terms of leather, comfort, range of colours?
  1. I'm partial to a floaty dress and a pencil skirt. My head still tells me heels look best. My knees disagree. What will be a decent compromise?

3.plantar fasciitis tends to be triggered by summer shoes, no can't do flat flats.

4.I stand up all day. 7-10000 steps usually. Trainers not allowed.

  1. Fisherman sandal. Can I?

Why are trainers not allowed? If you want to try fisherman sandals go for it. Kitten or wedge heels you can wear with floaty or pencil skirts or try Esska shoes.

I got some Hush Puppies Gabby sandals last summer and can walk miles in them. They do have a small block heel though.

There are loads of loafers around in various colours and softer materials like suede, could they be your summer substitute for brogues?
