"Give a girl the right pair of shoes and she can conquer the world." - Marilyn Monroe
I couldn't agree more; I felt like I was on top of the world while at New York Fashion Week with my best babes last week! It was my second trip to Fashion Week and my sixth trip to NYC overall. I never tire of visiting the city that never sleeps, it is just as magical every time I go! I have visited Manhattan enough that I know my way around the city and to really perfect the art of "touristing" in NYC. In my opinion, one of the most important things to do in New York, whether visiting during Fashion Week or just for fun, is to take care of your feet! You will do a LOT of walking and your feet will take a beating! Even the comfiest of tennies can rub a blister if you aren't careful.... Add fashionable heels or booties into the mix and your toes and arches will be screaming and that can ruin a day of sight seeing real quick! With the right pair of shoes, though (and a little help from
Foot Petals), anyone can conquer New York City.....or the world!
I'm rounding up all of my NYFW outfits below (even the ones that haven't made it to
Instagram, yet) and sharing my secret to making any pair of shoes more comfortable to walk in.
Now, let's talk shoes! My mom always said I had a bit of a shoe fetish when I was little... I guess some things never change! I love to find fun shoes that pop, make a statement and complete an outfit. The downside to stylish shoes is that they often aren't the most comfortable, especially when standing or walking for long periods......beauty hurts, amirite?
Wanna know my secret to making shoes more comfortable?
Foot Petals! They make all types of products including ball of foot cushions, heel cushions, blister prevention, anti-skid pads, insoles and arch supports. They even have sneaker deodorizers, sneaker wipes and suede protection spray! Everything you need to keep your feet feeling happy and your shoes looking fresh. While at Fashion Week I used the Sock-Free Saviors Odor Fighting Insoles in my sneakers and the Slip Stopper Insoles in my heels. I tossed the sneaker deodorizers in my suitcase to keep my shoes from stinking up my luggage (fact: I have the smelliest feet
ever haha). I don't know if I would have survived walking all over Manhattan without the help of
Foot Petals. I'm happy to report that I came home with zero blisters!
Do you walk a lot when you travel? I certainly do! Wandering around a cute neighborhood and getting lost in a new city on foot is one of my favorite parts of traveling. You discover so much more that way and appreciate every turn! If you're the same way, be sure to stock up on
Foot Petals before your next trip. You won't regret it and you can thank me later!
