Rosie, these are really cute and the heel isn't too high.

I would like to get these, but I need to go to the Naturalizer store and try them on first:

Daisy, have the Naturalizer shoes you've bought been well-made?

Those are such great shoes. I just wish I could find a pair like them that doesn't have such a high heel! I'd walk in those for five minutes and be in pain, that is if I didn't fall first!

I am very impressed with all the Naturalizer shoes I've bought. They are all very well made and very comfortable. I usually can't wear a heel, but in Naturalizer I can. I usually go up a half size so I can have a little extra room to add a Dr. Scholls messaging gel insert. These make a world of difference. I really like those shoes a lot, but I've been put on a shoe moratorium for I have bought 12 pairs in the past few months. Lets just say I was on the quest for the perfect pair of vintage-y shoes with a bit of a heel that I can actually walk in without too much pain... Naturalizer is the best at doing this. I just got the aerosoles that were posted by Dancing Sweetie in another thread. I haven't worn them yet, but Aerosoles are supposed to be just as comfortable as Naturalizer.
Gosh, I remember back in the day, since I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, I used to have to wear these awful orthopedic shoes. Now I can get the cutest and more stylish ones that are actually comfortable. So great...

Oooooo I love those!! The green is different too. I like that the heel is more the thickness of the 40's heels rather than when they make them thin.

Yesterday the Aerosoles that I ordered arrived. They are very cute, and I just love the kitten heel. They are incredibly comfortable, and they have a very soft cushiony in-step.
While I was looking on their website, I came across these. They are cute, vintagey, and if they are anything like the pair I bought, they should be very comfortable.

Hey, Daisy B. (and everyone else dreaming of cute shoes)... Dr. Scholl's read our minds. I just found these tonight! They're called "Idol" and can be found here: www.drschollsshoes.com

Automatically comfy... can this be? At $80?

I'm lusting after the Honey Oat. It'd be nice to sport something like this all day long without pain.

These Dr Scholl shoes are so really lovely. I have gotten on a shoe kick again as I think it's been years since I've bought any new shoes. I went to Re-Mix and was disappointed with the quality of the leather on some of their styles. These shoes would be perfect for work actually. They look like a tango shoe.

I just saw on the Dr.scholl's website that Ground Shipping is Free! Those shoes are just too cute!

 

[Miss Dottie]

Has anybody ever ordered at this shop? I like the Nell Oxfords. I have been thinking of buying a pair of those.

That top pair looks a lot like the thirties style shoe that Remix makes. It seems very rare to see green seude with black details, you know?

 

[Lady Day]

Ohhh!!!!

*throwing hissy fit*

Cant they make the heel two inches as well?! I just cant do those 3-4 inch monsters.

One thing you can do is dye shoes you like to navy. Depending on what they are made of, you can either lighten black to navy or easily darken a lighter colour to navy. It's a bit labour intensive, but well worth the effort!

Beautifeel Katherina - Navy Leather -
(I just ordered them!)

http://www.footwearetc.com/static_links/225-9038050.html

Okay, so I've got these now and YUMMY YUM YUM!
They are a truer navy than they appear in the photo...very dark. I wear them with this skirt: http://www.anntaylorloft.com/atlLMProductPage.process?RestartFlow=t&Merchant_Id=1&Section_Id=37&Product_Id=88231#ATLtop
If you "Zoom for details" and click "VIEWS Back" you can see the VERY CUTE buttons closing the vent in the back.

The shoes, the pencil skirt, and a ruffled blouse create a very Golden Era look with all new clothes.

I recommend working the heel leather on the shoe a bit like you would with a new baseball glove when you first get them. All BeautiFeel shoes seem a little stiff at first, but the leather softens well and the padding inside is decadent.

More from Naturalizer

I just checked the Naturalizer site to look at their new releases for fall. They once again have some great vintagey shoes. These red ones come in some other colors, including a cute black with white trim.



These black and white ones also come in all black. I like them but wish the toe was a little rounder.

Although very cute and vintagey, they are a bit too high of a heel for me. But I thought you gals who can wear a higher heel might like them. My experience with Naturalizer has been very good. I was at the outlet the other day, and they had an incredible selection of vintage inspired shoes, all buy one get one half off. I didn't buy any though =-(
They are very well made shoes, and have super fast shipping.

 

[skinnychik]

ooh...those are HOT!

Rosie, those are almost identical to the Texasgirl's Naturalizers:

These are super cute from Naturalizer and have a lower heel. Looks like they come in Black and Brown.
Also, I have the new t-straps that I just wore and they were real comfortable too. Zappos has them in red which I may need to get!

OOHH! I just love all of these shoes you gals are posting. I just bought a pair of Aerosoles that look a lot like the Born shoes, except I like the heel on the born shoes a bit more. I really like the Dr. Scholls, and that brand is supposed to be so comfortable. I had no idea that they made shoes that looked like that. I really like the Saddle color, and am in need of new brown shoes. Ugh, so many choices, it's so hard to have restraint and not buy them all
