My Old Standby Comfort Footwear

June 18, 2006 by Designer Ella

Shoes.About.com is hosting the Carnivale of the Couture this week, with a question quite difficult pour moi.

While it’s easy to get caught up in the latest trends and the newest offerings from the hottest designers, there are times when even the most devout fashionista will opt for function over fashion.

So … it’s not a big night out, there’s nary a potential partner in sight, and there is no office dress code. Which shoes do you reach for when you’re only dressing to impress yourself?

Ay, a big night out, a potential partner, and an office. I don’t so much have those things.

Yes, Ay! If I am about the town period, I dress to impress. Often, I wear flats that are quite comfortable, but they always match le ensemble and are always cute cute.

Even when I am about the house in slippers, I go for the cute, tasteful and well-kept pairs. (I even match le loungewear on occasion.) Even when in the slippers around my best friend, I certainly try to impress (he picked me out the most fashionista pair of slippers that don’t go as far as to have feathers or furs, and I must keep this pair nice).

So, what is my favorite comfortable flat, my “go-to” shoe? And what is my favorite pair of stylish house-footwear?

Report Rise, mentioned before, is my old standby flat. I have it in brown and black.

But these days of summer, my home (and work! [at home]) foot protection is a pair of Isotoners from the stylish lady line, I call it (I suppose). My pair is a slide with a beachy girl on a chaise with a cocktail! I don’t go out in these, of course, but I spend a lot of time at home.

I guess you could call me a little casual when it comes to the footsies, and a little cool yet generous with cozy housewear. Note this is a candid entry: I feel weird about admitting to not wearing fabulous shoes while blogging, but perhaps I am normal? Give me some reassurance. :-\
