    Question Casual shoes

    Ok so out of all the shoes i have none are ones i can just throw on and go out. I have thongs, boots, globes (which since having DD irritate me to no end!!), runners and endless pairs of heels..

    What do you mummys call your" cant live without" comfy casual shoes, ones that look great no matter what you are wearing... trackies, jeans, 3/4 pants?

    THONGS in summer.

    But every other season I have:

    Adidas style street shoes
    Black sparkly flats from kmart
    Silver flats from Joanne mercer
    Closed in wedges from Diana Ferrari supersoft wedges- so comfortable

    This winter, I will be continuing my pursuit for the perfect pair of flat boots

    I have two pairs - black flat ankle boots that slip on easy, and some slip on thingies that have good soles like a sneaker, but still look ok for work - hard to describe lol. I hate things with laces, so when I'm not wearing thongs or uggies I wear these

    Flats are my 'mum on the run' shoes. I have about 10 pairs lol. You can dress them up or down which is always handy. Canvasy or fabric ones for casual and leather for a more polished look. Best shoes ever and comfy!

    Sketchers!!! My all time faves, I'm on my fourth pair cos I wear them to death. I like the ones without laces that have elasticy stuff so you can slip them on. I also have "Mary Jane" type ones with a strap across to hold them on, they are more for summer.

    Birken sandals for summer and a pair of black cuban heeled boots for winter. I'm on the hunt for a new pair of boots at the moment (biker or cowgirl style) and a new pair of casual sneakers (my old ones smell of cat pee ).

    Leather ballet flats and flat ankle boots, also bought a gorgeous pair of deep red velvet ballet flats last year, love them!

    Kmart had some really nice flat ankle boots last year, I got some with an almond shaped toe and they will do again for this year only $15 each, loved them so much for them in 3 colours black, dove grey and brown.

    I love my casual shoes from athletes foot. They are sandle type things with arch support which is a MUST for me now. After 33 years I have finally decided that I will only wear good supporting shoes as my feet just get too sore otherwise. Only problem is that they are expensive. Many other good shoe shops sell arch support shoes and they are all expensive too but well worth the money I think.

    Red ballet flats, or any ballet flats. Rubi are good but stink pretty fast and wear out!!!! Brown and black knee high boots in winter.
