Portable Flats

There is no doubt that wearing heels gives you not just height but confidence as well. They are great for parties, make you look good and you can even dance in them. But have you ever felt the soreness of your feet after wearing heels repeatedly for a long time and walking in them for long distances? How can you escape this when you know that wearing heels is important to you?

The answer is simple ... portable flats. These shoes are so flexible and easy to carry that all your worries will be put to rest. Packed in a small cover you can carry them in your handbag or purse and when necessary, simply take off your heels, bring out the cover, roll out the flats and wear them for rest and comfort of your feet. The shoes are specifically designed to protect your feet from soreness, provide warmth and comfort and reduce stress. They are great to wear while going to or coming from your evening destination, traveling long distances, taking a break from dancing, or when you simply feel like kicking off the heels for good.

These shoes come in different sizes and colors, to accomodate different tastes. And the best part is they don't cost a fortune! In $20 you can get the portable flats of your choice.

You will find several companies offering portable flats with reasonable pricing, some under $20. Companies such as AfterSoles, SpareSoles, KushyFoot, POSH Pocket Shoes, CitySlips and Rollable Portable Shoes have made an online presence, each one advocating this unique idea and trying to take a lead in this category.

Ornamental/Embellished Shoes

Are you tired of wearing the same heels, flip flops and sandals each day? Do you find the new designs too plain for your taste?

If so, it's time to go for Ornamental/Embellished shoes. These shoes are pretty much designed the same way as others like heels, flip flops, sandals etc but have ornaments as an added beauty feature and made in different way. The don't add much functionality, but go a long way towards creating a new look!

These embellished designs are a hot trend this season. You'll see glass diamonds, colored stones, or beads attached to turn a conventional design on it's head. You can even make your own custom shoes at home with simple materials and using stuff you already have on hand. We've seen some women even go far as to use paper or cardboard around the shoe, and shape it like an animal like a shark or phoenix, and paint it accordingly. No doubt those creations were certainly eye catching and full of creative brilliance. And not only is it fulfilling to make art you can wear, but your shoes will also catch the attention of people around, particularly the fashion conscious women who'll love and appreciate the uniqueness.

Shoe companies offer several designs of Ornamental/Embellished shoes that will certainly catch your interest. One such model is the Suzukii by Chinese Laundry, a sandal embossed with man-made upper with flattering tassel and multiple straps to give it a unique look. Changing the colors varies the design greatly, making it more suitable for different occasions and changing look from party wear to informal or semi-formal easily.

Another great sandal is Avani by Earth. It is beaded in a traditional style that complements the overall design and soft feel of the sandal. It is made to support natural foot motion and its design absorbs shock well. It is available in different designs and colors, all eye catching in their own respects.
