Fashion Post: Dolce & Gabbana Spring/Summer 2013

I stared at this picture for a good solid minute. Love so many things about it. The colors, the high waisted shorts (belly buttons are out apparently), all the bold stripes. My favorite part? The lack of high heels! I walk around too much to wear heels anymore. Plus, I wear a huge size 10, sometimes 11. Even at that size, they never seem big enough. I'm always squeezing into shoes like the evil step sisters at the end of Cinderella. My husband always jokes that he thought the tradition of Chinese foot binding was cruel until he saw my feet.

But look at these women.  Feminine and beautiful and comfortable without the heals. I hope the future brings an abundance of flat options! Large, wide, flat options!

  1. I could not agree more! I have always felt way to tall for heels (not to mention would tower over my husband..!) and tend to awkwardly crouch next to more petite felines and fellas, so I'd love to see more more more fancy flats.

  2. I too am tall with big, wide feet, I hardly ever wear heels largely because there is just no need. I would also like more fun flat shoes though

  3. And I also love the fact that they are not incredibly skinny (at least some of them look healthy).

  4. Love this! I have size 10/11 feet as well and extremely long toes that throb after 1 hour in heels. my friends make fun of my collection of flats but it's better than being miserable in heels!

  5. I already get self conscious wearing my easy tones as they dwarf those around me, not to mention heels :)
    It might be a thing to show flats on the runway, Marc Jacobs had a lot of flats in his line as well as Marc by MJ line, as did Boy by Band of Outsiders. Lots of pretty flats this season.

  8. I really love my high heels but, since I am a mother, all of them are in my parking area!

  9. You know, I've been reading your blog for a while and know from older posts that you care about finding American made clothing. I have a feeling you might like these flats made by hand in upstate, NY by the Aurora Shoe Co. They're cute and comfortable, they last FOREVER and they're made here from all American materials. They're also great for bigger than average feet :)

    It's my family's business, so I'm probably biased, but I really do think you'll like them: http://www.etsy.com/listing/107617334/new-chinese-black

  12. I think women have been brainwashed into heels as the only option so I don't think they will lose their appeal anytime soon. I like heels but I don't wear them often and I don't think they should be a staple of women's fashion.

    I rarely put myself through the suffering of tilting my foot at an uncomfortable angle and have no desire to be limited by the shoes that I wear. Whatever I have on must be both attractive and functional. It is not necessary to be in pain when you want to look good. Flats are sexy and when made from the right materials, feel like a second skin.
