2. Footwear? You ask us girls about shoes?

Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

Feb 2026. Below is the reply to the DP I wrote a year ago. Not long after, I had begun blogging again. I’m tempted to rewrite the whole thing. But no. I’ll leave it be.

Feb 2025. Currently, I  spend most of my time in wellies. It’s February, in England and I walk my dog a lot in the muddiest of areas. My choice, I know.

But asking a female about favourite footwear? With any luck, we’ve all had quite a few pairs that have made us happy. Yes, I can see I’ve generalised there, and yes, there are going to be lots of ladies that have had the one special pair, and I look forward to reading about them.

Cowboy boots, desert boots, moccasin boots, Converse, Birkies, platforms, killer heels, bejewelled sandals, clogs, the list goes on.

I don’t buy leather anymore, but I did once upon a time have the most beautiful chestnut coloured sandals that encased my foot. It’s impossible to describe, really but memorable. They took me to Saudi Arabia- and thinking about that, I imagine I gave up my beloved biker boots at that same time. Wouldn’t be needing those in the desert.

  1. For me, a shoe always has to be comfortable and lightweight. I think we all have that one pair we keep going back to — the ones we wear again and again without even thinking.
    Of course, those of us who live in places with four seasons always need at least one pair for each time of year. 😊

  2. I did a wardrobe clear out last year, and left myself with a few pairs of smart sandals, and walking sandals, 2 pairs of trainers and 2 pairs of boots…seriously 7 pairs… I need to go shoe shopping ☺️
