Functional Feet

by Jen on Friday, November 2, 2012

Although I undoubtedly feel much more pulled together in heels, I've learned the hard way (okay, multiple times) that full days out call for an ultra-practical outfit. These studded riding boots proved to be the ideal footwear choice earlier this week, on a day that included a morning meeting, much commuting around the city, and attending an event to visit the beautiful new Estée Lauder counter at The Bay.

I completely know what you mean, Jen - as much I would always rather be in heels, sometimes they simply aren't practical for all of the walking I do in my car-free every day life. (Okay, all the time.) Particularly since I've come to Paris and have to negotiate cobblestones regularly, I've come to embrace flats and it's always nice to see I'm not the only blogger doing so. Love those boots!

Great outfit head to toe! I personally hate wearing heels, so I love seeing examples of flat shoes dressed up in a fashionable way. You look great!

Flat shoes are definitely more practical for long days. Those are cute boots! Hope you had fun at the event :) Your outfit is perfect for fall!

Gorgeous boots! It's so hard to find stylish, practical wear fit for rainy days.

Hi Jen,

Are the boots true to size? Im a size 5 and wanted to see if i can wear a size 6, which is the smallest size Zara offers...
