 You were always told,
"don't slouch" but for the sake of style, slouch away! Whether
heeled or flat, slouch boots feed the retro fashion crave and are
truly a beautiful blast from the past. This fabulous style works
well with printed dresses, sweet skirts or tucked-in skinny jeans.

on the '80s throwback action.

 When the temperatures
start to dip, turn up the heat in splendid shearling boots. These
delightfully cozy styles are easy to wear and so fun to pair with
skirts, dresses or tucked-in jeans. Depending on your mood, you can
match the furry Skechers Canary with just about any outfit you
choose.

Dear Lydia,
I am a 43 years young, very petite woman and I love to wear heels.
Can you advise me on what is a reasonable and age-appropriate heel
height?
-Sharon, Minnesota
Dear Age-appropriate Angst,
You raise a great issue! While a 4" or even 5" heel may work for a
20-something, someone 43 years young may want to stay around or
below the 3" heel mark. That being said, check out the Suzanne by Mudd. The 1 ½" plaid and patent
wedge heel is right on trend and packs enough height to make you
feel sexy and flatter your figure.
Dear Lydia,
I work in an office that requires wearing nice dress shoes, but I
have trouble finding styles to fit my wide feet. Can you recommend
heels and boots that are dressy, stylish and available in wide
width?
-Joan, Rhode Island
Dear Searching Far and Wide For Wide,
Your search starts and stops here. We have several dressy,
stylish, wide width shoes for you to work with. Try the Shaw by LifeStride pump with a dress or slacks for
office splendor. The Nickels Rogue boot radiates style and works well with
a pair of classic dress trousers.
Shop all women's wide widths.
Got shoe issues?

Libra: Sept.
23-Oct. 22
 Libra's appreciation for the arts and all things beautiful
is quite impressive. But admit it: It's much more fun to be admired
for those shimmery, sexy shoes. You're a good flirt and quick to
compliment other people's shoes, too-especially if you're trying to
talk them into something. You want to do what's best for everyone,
but don't forget to take care of yourself-your love of luxury and
creature comforts may lead to indulge in rich food. Get off that
couch and lace up your trainers!
The stars are pointing Libra toward these
styles:
Evening... your sunny optimism isn't dimmed at
night
Boutique... eye-catching details are very, very
good
Flats... a great shoe for lazy moods
Sneakers... off the couch and hit the shopping
district!

These
Boots Are Made For Walkin'
Kick up your boots, we've got a little bit of a boot tale
to tell ya: Pop song "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" was
composed by Lee Hazlewood and first recorded by Nancy Sinatra.
Released in February 1966, the song was a total hit and reached #1
on the United States and United Kingdom Pop charts. Interestingly
enough, U.S. troops in the Vietnam War found the song a fitting
tune to march to and so they did-looks like Nancy's tune rang true.
Sinatra packed her bags and traveled to Vietnam to perform for the
U.S. soldiers and gave them a chance to kick up their boots and
enjoy some legendary music.
We have a stunning selection of boots that are made for walkin',
struttin', strollin' and stylin'. Shop the women's boot shop.
