These Boots Are Made For Walking...

Gidget is asleep - today has, apparently, been rather more than she can manage, and so I am going to write her blog post for her while she takes a well-earned nap.

Gidget is a busy girl, her little legs cover a fair few miles in the course of a week, and it's no wonder she's tired - sometimes I know just how she feels, and I bet you do, too!

We talked a couple of weeks ago about the importance of taking good care of your feet, and your footwear, but we don't want you to think that fashion can't also be fun... and so today Gidget would like you to see some of our favourite photos from the last week...


First up are these amazing ankle boots from John Fluevog, that streak of royal blue is really eyecatching!


Camilla Skovgaard always makes a statement, and these ankle boots are no exception!
 
And this Kate Spade bag is a unique piece, too - how many people do you know who have an astroturf purse?


I'm sure that if she were awake Gidget would wish you a great week, and hope that you get to wear something fun, but as it is....

yep, she's still napping!

Tips From Gidget's Closet - Be Kind To Your Feet


Did you know that switching out your shoes regularly can help to keep both your shoes and your feet in better condition?

It's true, resting your shoes in between wearing allows them to breathe and to recover from any stretching that may have taken place while you were wearing them.

And wearing different shoes each day helps to keep your feet rested and healthy.  Different shoes put pressure on different parts of your feet - heels feel really different to sneakers, don't they?  Having the same pressure on the same part of your foot day after day can feel exhausting, and can even cause problems with the health of your feet.  Switching to a fresh pair of shoes for a day or two can help your feet to stay strong and feel good - and a little pampering with moisturizer or a pedicure never hurt, either, right?

A moment's care of your shoes can help a lot, too.  A quick wipe over with a cloth or a soft brush at the end of the day will remove dust and dirt from your shoes, keeping them looking and feeling like new.

So go ahead, take a minute to look after your shoes, and then put your feet up for a well earned rest...
