From Oprah’s Favorite Things for 2007….

UGG® AUSTRALIA CLASSIC CROCHET TALL BOOT

“I bet every truly dedicated Oprah watcher knows what my feet cannot live without,” Oprah says. This slouchy knit boot keeps feet comfy and cozy in three colors: black, sand and rum raisin. The UGG boot’s famous sheepskin sock lining is like walking on a cloud.

Personally, I think they look like corduroy from a distance, and corduroy went out of style a long time ago. They look like an afghan from my grandma’s house when you look closer up, and well, that ain’t for me. But if you want to take Oprah’s word for it, I found them for sale from UGG Australia ($120), Amazon ($119) and Nordstrom.com ($119.95, limit 4).

I really cannot figure out the point of flip flop slippers. When I think of slippers, I think of keeping my feet warm. These Old Friend Sheepskin Flip Flop slippers at Shoebuy.com seem totally useless to me. Maybe they provide the ultimate in barefoot comfort, but for $34.95 I’d rather have a real pair of shoes.

Here at Shoeaholics Anonymous, we get a lot of emails asking questions about shoes.  So, we’ve decided to create a new Q & A category as we figured other shoe addicts may benefit from other’s inquiries. 

Q: I saw this shoe/boot  made by Asics and a Japanese company (they came together to make this shoe-boot combo) on a girl in Miami this past weekend and loved it. The color I want is all white. Do you know where I can get this shoe/boot? It is so hot!!! ~ Maddie

A: Hi Maddie, I think we found what you’re looking for!  Zappos offers the Onitsuka Tiger by Asics - Snow Heaven 72 (White/White) - inspired by the Sunotore RSSP boot which was developed for the 1983 Olympic ski racing team. Suede/Mesh/Textile upper with the ability to cuff the top at any thickness to show your style. Lower portion of the boot has a water resistant lining. Rubber outsole. $99.95  at Zappos.com with Overnight Shipping! ~ Kim

Invisible Insolia High Heel Inserts make higher heels incredibly comfortable!

The magic is the weight shift!

Higher heels create a ramp effect putting the foot in a tip-toe position with the foot sliding toward the toe and putting painful pressure on the ball of the foot. Invented by leading podiatrist, Dr. Howard Dananberg, Insolia Inserts shift weight off the ball of the foot and back to the heel (where it belongs).

Insolia High Heel Inserts available from Footsmart.com.

The day after Thanksgiving is coined “Black Friday”, the biggest shopping day of the year for retailers.  So I thought this would be a great day to finally upload my pictures (click thumbnail for full pic) of me shoe shopping at Harrod’s while on my trip to London. I can only imagine how packed the famous department store is today!

I used to get up early to hit all the Black Friday sales, but found it’s easier to shop from home via the internet and avoid the crowds. A lot of stores offer the same if not better deals online and most offer free shipping to your door - can’t beat that! Click here for my top shopping deals!

I’ve been contemplating getting a new vehicle, but not sure I’d go as extreme to drive a “shoe car”.  In honor of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade today, I thought these cars look like they belonged in the parade line-up.

More Shoe Car Pics here.  Have a Happy Thanksgiving!  You can join me on the couch for a nap after dinner.
