The goal last weekend was a winter coat, which was achieved. We got a really cute one at Nordstrom's. It's a black pea coat and will hopefully soon be on its way to Maryland. (The sleeves were too long and had to be shortened.)
I also wanted a new pair of nicer shoes for work, instead of having to wear flats or my converse all the time, which don't do much to keep my feet warm in cold weather.
But, of course, finding shoes that fit is anything but easy for me. We went into Journeys and had my feet measured ... children's size FOUR. This is the reason I wear converse or cheap kids shoes from Payless. This is the reason why I don't really like shoes and why I HATE heels. Stores don't make shoes a size four for women. A five sometimes fits, but that's also ridiculously hard to find.
We finally went into Easy Spirit where they had size fives in some of the styles. I ended up getting these ones:
They're pretty nice, but still a little roomy in the back, causing them to lift up off my foot a slightly when I walk. But they get the job done as a nicer shoe that I can wear when going out or to work.
However, other than this store, finding shoes that fit me is ridiculously hard. And sure I could fit into children's sized shoes, but most of the nicer shoes for little girls have glitter and sparkles on them. And, for me, that was so eighth grade.
Anyone else out there have this problem? Where do you get your shoes?
