There is one main requirement when purchasing shoes. That is that they must feel good to your feet. Everything else is a matter of preference. They can be the best looking pair of shoes in the world, but if they don’t feel good to your feet it is a waste. I definitely don’t subscribe to the suck it up and endure the pain if it means wearing a better looking pair of shoes! So the best thing you can do when shoe shopping is try on multiple pairs of shoes, and don’t hesitate to try a size smaller or larger than what you are normally used to. Size can fluctuate between makers. For fun try out zebra print pumps!
