Painless shoes for an Expecting Woman

Pain is not something enjoyed at all, especially if you're pregnant. It’s particularly hard to find shoes that fit during those nine months. Wearing your regular shoes may cause blisters, pinched toes or just all around discomfort.

So what is the solution?

First, you have to find your new size! Your feet may have swollen a bit so it may be a necessary first step. Also, you may want to come into the store and try some shoes on, instead of or before ordering online.

Second, you have to figure out what kind of shoes you want, whether casual or dressy. Some women may not want to bring out the heels, but others may feel comfortable enough for them. We think comfort is key to finding the perfect shoe. You also want to limit the risk of tripping while you adjust to your new center of gravity, so flat shoes are probably preferred.

Here at Feet First we have some casual shoes that would be perfect to wear while pregnant!

Most of our Born shoes are very comfortable and will satisfy your changing feet plus they are super stylish. Check out these new Molly Ballet Flats which are perfect for fall and oh so cute! 

There are some simple yet versatile black Annibell Comfort Flats from Born as well. 

Last but not least I would recommend these Born Joanie Comfort Loafers. This chic menswear inspired look is available in brown or black. 

These shoes are great for the fall, and in colors that will go with almost any outfit! You don't have to sacrifice style for comfort. These shoes all have comfortable insoles that will give your feet a much needed break if they begin to swell.

But wait! There are more options! (Don't you just love options?)

These Ballasox Prince Corso Cormo Flats are super popular and stylish. The stretchiness of these shoes are a must have for your growing or swelling feet.   These flats can even be folded up in your purse for easy access on those long days on your feet. They are perfect for all day wear and even have a sock lining for moisture absorption, this will keep your feet cool and dry. And Fall Colors are Coming Soon to Feet First!

Also, All our Naot shoes are extremely comfortable and we have an array of them here at our store.

For example, there are these Lucente heels combine casual and dressy with comfort! The stretch fabric across the front allows a flexible and secure motion when walking and also, will adjust to your feet as they change through your pregnancy. These shoes have allowance because your feet, while pregnant may possibly expand due to sodium and water.

There are even more options at our store! Come by and we will be happy to help you find a comfortable shoe (even if you aren't pregnant). Congrats on becoming a mother and Happy Shopping!

Pair it with anything! The Corso Como Del and Mendy pump work with long summer maxi dresses or a pair of skinny jeans and a blazer to welcome in the fall.

TREND ALERT: A Clutch Craze!

     TREND ALERT! 

     Hello Fashionistas! Gabbi here with this week's Trend Alert, Clutches! These petite carry arounds were normally worn for after 6 events and if you still think they're solely for those then think again! This season  these accessorizing essentials have been dressing up any outfit, any time of day, in any size! Below are a few tips to keep in mind when styling these cuties which are available online or at your local Feet First store.

   

     No matter if it's work or play, it's almost always a must to match your clutch with your shoes. This gives your outfit a complete, blended look from head to toe. Below is the Lodis Veronica Leather Smoke Snake Print clutch, which gives you the organization of a wallet as well as enough room for all of your other important lady items. The Veronica is paired with the Corso Como Del Pump in Black. This combo is professional enough for the office and snazzy enough for a city date!

     As mentioned, clutches were usually purchased to match a specific occasion, but not this one! The Magid Coral Straw Striped Bow clutch, is one of the ultimate clutches this season. Also available in Green, the Striped Bow clutch features a matching straw strap so it can be worn across the body and three interior pockets for storage. Great for summer festivals and weddings!

     And we all know there is never a summer where things don't get heated at an All White party. Add a pop of color to your immaculate look with a Monya Embroidered Canvas clutch. The orange, yellow and brown birds and flowers on this embroidered on the clutch's canvas will spice things up and keep heads turning all night long!

     And just a helpful tip before you go on your clutch craze, you want to make sure your clutch is big fun in a little package but NEVER over stuff your clutch. You want to make sure you're accessorizing with a eye popping clutch, not a bulky, carry on suitcase!

HAPPY SHOPPING!
