beautiful brown shoes

Why was I under the impression that Naturalizer shoes were supposed to be comfortable? You know, like Aerosoles? Comfort, to me, usually translates into shoes that are ugly, for the most part. So, from time to time, I have seen something that looks cute from afar in the Naturalizer store, only to go in and realize, that I was mistaken. It is not that cute. Until last night.

I saw these shoes, and I fell in love with the color. I love this color brown. Looks great with jeans. So, I tried them on and they looked even better on than they do in this picture. The little brown round toe sticking out underneath my jeans? Gorgeous. I even liked seeing my pedicure through the cut outs. Oh, and they're supposed to be comfortable? Sign me up.

Their website even says: "Naturalizer was dubbed "the shoe with the beautiful fit" by advertising guru Leo Burnett in the 1940s. Today's Naturalizer shoes still have a beautiful fit, and are comfortable enough to wear throughout the day. " Written by a man, naturally.

So, today - sooo not comfortable. I mean, I know they'll break in, like any other shoe, but I thought they weren't supposed to be like any other shoe? Whatever. They're cute, they're mine.
