Shoes for Every (Foot) Body

A lot of people assume that shoes are the perfect choice for a session of retail therapy because they will democratically fit women of all shapes and sizes. What people forget, though, is that being fat will make your feet fat, too. There's no unseen fat barrier that runs between the bottom of your ankles and the top of your feet, leaving them fat-free while the rest of your body grows.

That's why finding retail outlets that stock wide shoes is such a great find, and unfortunately, a rarity.

That's why I'm saying hat's off to Torrid for their pretty amazing shoe selection. Some shoes are available in medium width only, but the majority will fit women with wider feet and larger calves. Below you will see a sample of some of the Torrid footwear options. Click on an image to get more information. Enjoy!

F*ck Me Boots for the Larger Calf

I love boots. Absolutely love them. However, I'm hardly ever able to buy a pair that goes higher than my upper ankle because regular boots will not fit over my calves. I've searched high and low for cute, larger-calf boots and have had little luck until recently. I stumbled upon torrid.com's shoe selection and was pleasantly surprised by their selection of boots. I've inserted some of my favorites here - but go to the site to check more out.

Where's your favorite place to shop for boots? Share the wealth!

Shoes Glorious Shoes!!!

Women can never have too many shoes. They're fun, fashionable, and functional, and they allow you to express your personality and dress up an outfit. Worn right, shoes can make you appear slimmer and elongate your legs.

The best shoes to wear to make your leg appear longer is a pointy-toe high heeled shoe. The pointy toe lengthens the leg line as much as possible, making your legs appear long and beautiful. When pointy toe pumps first started to become popular, I was skeptical. I thought they looked like witches shoes, and I refused to have anything to do with them.

However over time I've come to realize the beauty of point-toed shoes. They're actually not all that uncomfortable - they are significantly longer than round-toed shoes, so your toes won't be pinched when you wear them. Plus high heels are guaranteed to make you look hot! I feel great when I walk around the office in 4-inch heels. They may take a while to get used to, but once you've worn them for a while, you'll feel on top of the world.

I love nine west for pointy-toed shoes. The Freda style is perfectly for the workplace or for going out at night. So get a pair of pointy-toe heels and feel like a million bucks!
