Sale on Big Shoes!

Ok you east coast readers! Barefoot Tess is a shoe store specializing in women’s shoes, sizes 10-15. I just got word that they are having a huge sale Jan 26-28 in their Baltimore MD store. They’re offering a 20% discount on in-store purchases (some exclusions apply) and giving out 10% off coupons to everyone who comes in, just for stopping by. Discounts on winter merchandise are up to 75% off and they will have a limited selection of jewelry and handbags as well.  Everything available on their website will be available in store, and they have TONS of sizes 10-11 left in stock that must go.

It looks like they have also redone their website since I last visited, and it seems to be much more user friendly. I love it when sites have features to narrow down what you’re looking for!

I got these Blowfish Wolf Heels from them, and I love them! I get compliments every time I wear them. We’ve even been using them for maternity photo shoots!

Review: Tall Boots and a discount code for anything

I used to live in Arizona, and loved that you can wear sandals all year round. Those days are gone. I have been wanting some tall boots to wear with dresses, so my legs don’t freeze.

I bought these for $34.99 last week (although the price has now gone up).

Summary:

Pros: Calf room is decent. I was worried because mine are a bit thick and they were out of the “full calf” sizes. I ordered the “average calf” size and they fit fine.

Cons: Not super comfortable, and the fake leather looks a bit fake. Go figure.

Verdict: Keeping them. They were super cheap, and I will mainly wear them to church, where I sit a lot so comfort isn’t a huge issue. Just checked back tonight and their real leather boots are on sale for $64.99, down from $130.If you want either style (or anything else at JCPenney) you can use the code NICE4U at checkout to save $10 on almost any order that is $10 or more.

Show off your skis!

Let’s face it, with height often come big feet. I’ve been skiing around on my size 11’s since junior high. I might even be 11 1/2 after having all these blasted babies. (Add that to the list of things they owe me for.)

Big shoes have gotten much easier to find than they used to be. One of my favorite online shops is Zappos. I first heard of it a couple years ago, in a news story featuring their unconventional work environment and customer service. They really do rock!

They carry every brand & style imaginable, and sizes up to 13. Their website is very user-friendly. Unfortunately they are not the cheapest store. But for hard-to-find things (like tall clothes & big shoes), I have to figure my time into the cost. Free shipping in both directions means I can order a dozen or more pairs of shoes without hesitation, and return as many as I want. Within a year no less. That’s right, not a month but a YEAR! And if it saves me from trucking all over town (including time & money for gas and babysitting), it is worth it.
