size?
@prettywootprincess: There was a post just a while ago for a coupon on Designer Shoe Warehouse.
If you're in the Big D (and not St Louis) then you should be able to visit a local one. I LOVE DSW!!!

how about these? and they come in many sizes. :-) I did post two other deals but the sizing was limited.
I don't wear heels. Sorry. Besides I hear boots are in, not heels.
@sgoman5674: Boots? Boots don't quite cut it in any situation where heels are appropriate. One suggests that anyone styling herself as Pretty Woot Princess is going to prefer something attractive, and yet feminine.
Hmph! Who let the boys in, anyway?
@shrdlu: I am a graduate of the "Rocky Horror Picture Show" Halloween event. I had to wear heels for that. One of the most excruciating things I have every done.
@sgoman5674: Welcome to the other side. Actually, it's a skill, and there's nothing worse than cheap shoes. I spent a large part of my life in heels, and it really wan't something I was conscious of, nor did they cause pain. I used to have pairs of shoes with five inch heels. Now I have bunny slippers. Life changes.
My daughter used to play the blue tranny, and was the understudy for Janet.
@sgoman5674: boots have heels too you really do not want me to start looking for boot deals too do you? Because I can, when i get home
@hobbit: Whatever floats your boat! I am trying to find a down free parka for cheap. So far most of the things that I have seen are over what I want to spend.
@sgoman5674: just letting you know I can find you some snappy heeled boots. http://www.amazon.com/INDULGE-3000-Thigh-Boot-Black-Stretch/dp/B000XUR3E8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=shoes&qid=1260825200&sr=1-2
@shrdlu: I am size 6 in most cases and I love DSW as well but they freaking don't price match. I like http://www.overstock.com/Clothing-Shoes/Seychelles-Womens-Follies-Slip-on-Wedges/4341122/product.html?cid=123620&fp=F&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=12314153 in black. But they don't have my size. And I need dress shoes, preferably not mary janes.
@prettywootprincess: Have you tried Nordstrom's Rack? I have to tell you that I would NEVER buy shoes (or clothing) on line, since what looks fabulous on the shelf can end up being an ill-fitting nightmare. You probably need them very soon, or I'd suggest waiting for the week after xmas, when EVERYONE is trying to get rid of excess stock (I usually stay out of the stores all through December since I dislike crowds).
Pity I'm not in Dallas right now. We could go shopping. I love shopping. I'm good at it. I just don't know online stuffs for shoes.
@shrdlu: I agree, buying shoes online is not the best idea. Other clothes is ok in my opinion.
@shrdlu: DSW FTW
@thefenst: Totally DSW FTW! Next time I'm in the Big D, we're all going shopping.
@shrdlu: I totally forgot about Nordstrom Rack!!! There is one like 10min away, I heart you!
@prettywootprincess: I love shoes. Shoes are a requirement of life, like breathing, or chocolate.
A good shoe repair shop can dye a pair of white shoes any color you wish.
@wootvan: You do not understand. Who wants to change shoes you like? New shoes. Not dyed shoes. THWACK One smack with the wet slimy sturgeon for you.
@shrdlu: Ouch! Damn! Go to a bridal store and buy a pair of shoes made for dyeing.
@wootvan: Actually, I have a pair of those I got at DSW for $6, and I'm very very careful to not wear them any where they might get dirty. They're white, and simple. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find white shoes with no decorations, no special doo-dads, just white?
@shrdlu: re: difficulty in finding shoes->not really...I'm a man and last bought a pair of dress shoes about four years ago (black) which get worn about fifteen times a year. Whenever I find a deal on sneakers, I buy immediately (I've got three or four unworn pairs in my closet) as I go through those pretty fast.
@wootvan: I already knew you were a man (from another conversation re your posting frequency). That's why the comment was funny (to me, and that's my favorite audience). ++ on the sneakers. I have one pair left that have never been worn, and they no longer make them, so I'll have to start looking around in a few years.
In my experience, any, and I mean ANY shoe from BORN is uuber comfortable... They do make dress shoes and boots too. Try Smartbargains and search for BORN. See that they have......
