I'll always be a fan of stilettos!!! And I haven't tired of knee-high/above the knee/thigh-high boots yet. And open toes are a given in the summer!!!

Flat and round toed. I love "ballerina" flats.
I like this company :
French Sole

I hate heels, I am quite tall and clumsy and they look ridiculous on me as well as being dangerous !

Depends on the shoe, the cut of the shoe, and the outfit I'm wearing it with!

I don't like to wear shoes at all so I wear sandals all the time. The exception is when its cold, I have a couple pairs of shoes that have covered toes but are open in the back so they can be taken off easily. I can't stand lace up shoes, I don't even own socks. When I was in Texas I had to borrow some from a friend.

I would say my favorite footwear is a really nice bright shade of polish on my toenails and nothing else.

oxford shoes. back in 1999 i had some awesome ones, black suede, had a boy's heel, not a big heel but very cute shoes. i still remember those. and i wore them until i couldn't anymore as they were falling apart. i'd love to be able to walk on heels but i can't. i get too tired after 5 steps. but my choice would always be oxford shoes, they go great with skirts, dresses, jeans pants you name it. i haven't been able to find something i liked in that style since 1999, but i keep lookin

When I recently bought a pair of boots, I realized I didnt have any socks either lol! I live in Phoenix.

I like thick heels or wedges-they seem more stable and comfortable to walk in. Height isn't a problem for me, just those real skinny itty bitty heels scare me lol!

That said, I essentially live in flipflops (the dressy leather kind with heels not the little plastic day at the beach things) and sandals. My only "closed" shoes are my boots.

I like Brighton's sandals. For some reason their "cut" and angle of the arch just seems perfect for my foot. Like these:

I like Mary Janes and ballerina flats -- or "Skipper shoes" as we called them when we were kids, after the doll's shoes.

Not much for heels or pointy toes. Owwww.

I'm a big fan of cork wedges in the summer. In the winter, I love my high heeled boots too. I just really adore shoes in general. Although when I was looking at those pics, I just about threw up when I came to the open-toed strappy sandal with pantyhose that had toe seams. Why, why, why?? At least tuck the toe seams under your toes!
