This post is brought to you by eBay. Spring has sprung, and with it the time to switch out my wardrobe. I live in a relatively small home, and while my closet is technically a walk-in, it’s far too small to hold more than one season of clothing. I schedule a weekend in advance for…
I have wide feet. Scrolling through online shops looking at wide width shoes I’m disappointed and downright disgusted with the options.

Rejoice, the wider heel better distributes weight and pressure, keeping you comfortable longer. This sort of heel looks fantastic with trousers…
