Kim in More Crocs

Kim in Cyprus Crocs  Crocs Cyprus (Women's) - Black/Black

While in the Crocs Shop, I just had to try on the Crocs Cyprus sandals - the first Crocs high heel, fashion fused with comfort for the ultimate in style.  And I have to admit, even though the pair I tried on was a size too big, they were quite comfortable. I’m wearing the Black/Silver above, but I can see myself buying/wearing the Black/Black or the Chocolate/Cotton Candy color.

• incredible 3 inch heel designed with the classic comfort of croslite™ material
• spices up any fashionista’s wardrobe
• lightweight and easy to bring along
• footbed conforms to foot creating custom fit
• circulation nubs stimulate blood flow

Kim’s Pink Crocs

Kim' Pink Mary Jane Crocs

I seriously didn’t think I would ever known a pair of Crocs. But I’m a sucker for sales, my second fave shoe choice behind mules would be mary-janes, and my favorite color is pink.  So, you see what I bought last week above - yep, two pairs of pink Mary Jane Crocs (one fuschia, the other pearl pink). They were on clearance for only $6.66 at Herberger’s so how could I resist?  They only come in whole sizes (I’m a 7.5) and they say ”half sizes please order the next size up” but the size 7 fit way better than the size 8, so I went with them.  I’ve wore each color once (while my daughters rolled their eyes at me), and I have to admit <shudder> that they are pretty comfortable.  I can see though why schools are banning them as they could easily be punctured on the playground.

Kim at Croc store

Then last week while touring Boston, I got to visit an actual Crocs store, where they were selling the exact same shoes I bought for $29.99 each. I can’t find them cheaper anywhere online either, so I obviously got a good deal! Hmmm, maybe I should go buy some more to re-sell on eBay?

Q&A: You by Crocs?

Women's shoes: YOU by Crocs Venice - Green patent

Hi,  My friend came home from Colorado wearing You’s green venice heels. She claims they are comfortable, they looked cute with her jeans on, but I am hesitant! I had to share with some of my fave shoe blogs to see if any had actually tried them?!  www.youbycrocs.com  Love your site!  
Thanks! Meg

Dear Meg, Since your email address is meg***@crocs.com, and your I.P. address is from Colorado (Croc headquarters), we can only assume that you are a Crocs employee trying to plug the You by Crocs line.  How many other shoe blogs did you email? We would have gladly showcased the shoes if you just asked us nicely.  Anyway, I kind of like them myself, but would never pay $175 for them (available from Piperlime.com).

Skyhorse Publishing is Calling All Shoe Lovers!

We’re putting together a book on our passion for shoes, and we want your help!

If you are a REAL shoegirl, the relationship you have with your shoes is deep, meaningful, mutually satisfying. But even you, shoe aficionado that you are, have a favorite pair, the crown jewel of your collection. 

The Shoes. Maybe they’re the hot new heels you bought for Saturday nights out, those sweet boots you got cheap at an end of season sale, or something less flashy and more sentimental, like the shoes you were wearing when your husband proposed, or the sneakers you wore when you backpacked across Europe after graduating college.

Whatever they are, we want to see them.  So drag them out of the closet, give ‘em a shine, and take some snapshots.  Then tell us why these are The Shoes.  Give us a little history.  Let us feel the love.  If we love them like you love them, we’ll put your shoes (and your name!) in the book.

The Details - Send us those shoe pics and 50-250 words about why you love them.  Direct all emails to ilovemyshoes@skyhorsepublishing.com  - Include your name and email address, so we can contact you if we choose your shoes.

Make sure all photos are at a resolution of 300 dpi (if you’re shooting with a digital camera, set the resolution as high as you can), so we can admire your shoes in their true glory.  Also, keep them smaller than 8” x 8”. 

Be creative!  Take your shoes on a photo shoot around town (or around the house).  The photo is only limited by your imagination, just keep the focus on the shoes (not that we have to tell you that).

The Legal Stuff - Don’t steal photos out of magazines or off shopping sites.  We want your shoes, walked in, lived in, and loved.

Nurses Love Crocs

Crocs Women's Mary Jane pearl white comfort clogs One of my friends is a nurse in a busy doctor’s clinic.  She told me she absolutely loves her white Mary Jane Crocs! With the recent snowstorms, she opted one day to wear tennis shoes instead of her Crocs, and she said her feet hurt so bad afterwards that she nows wears her Crocs everyday to work. I have to admit they do look like cute with her nursing scrubs.
