Thank you 👍🏻💐 Lots of nice shoes, I‘d like to have them all except ballerinas. Never liked ballerinas on me only on other ladies. I think I look and walk duck like in those. Mary janes, no please. What I do love are Converse chucks in black with white sole. Only this color, only the original. Please dont hit me, anybody😉. So classy and timeless, with bootcout jeans or wide leg trousers. I like to dress those up or down with clothes.

I love my crisp white sneakers, they look good with allot of chic or relaxed outfits. When I don't know what shoes to wear I always end-up wearing my white sneakers. I got leather ones, easier to keep clean then the canvas ones in my opinion. I also started wearing colored sneakers in winter instead of boots, I discovered a brand called Hoff, they are the most comfortable sneakers I have ever owned. I have a pair of kaki green with burgundy and dark purple, I wear them with pants or dresses in the winter. Love them.

I like Dolce Vita brand, Zina I do have my walking sneakers just for walking but love the casual, more fashionable sneakers for my casual outfits. Recently I have bought Sam Edelman pointed toe kitten heel sling back heels in a lovely pink and a gold color. So fun for summer. I plan to wear heels as long as I am able.

I only like Mary Janes with a lower vamp and block heels, the flats look little-girlish. I also like a low-set strap. The similar style I love is Sezane’s Paula Babies, which have two straps set quite low over the vamp. They’re very flattering and comfy. I prefer a mid-heel, especially a block one, for daily wear outside my home. If I must, I wear nice, leather sneaker mules for extra comfort, they look more polished than lace-ups.

I do agree about the Mary Jane ballet flats. However, after 7 spinal surgeries, my feet don;t work very well and ballet flats don't stay on my feet. I can't wear heels any more, even a kitten heel, because of my balance issues. I can wear a short block heel. When it comes to shoes, I own a few pairs of loafers. I need something that comes up high on the vamp. I can't even wear a slide. I must say that trying to be stylish when you are disabled is a challenge. Videos like yours are a big help, though when it comes to shoes, I am definetley limited when it comes to choices.

It's tough , isn't it? It's also frustrating when you see outfits that you know would look best with a certain type of heel and realize they won't work for you. I try to the best I can with my limited options. One thing I will never do, id give up and become a frumpy old lady. I'm 74 now, and expect to be as fashionable as possible until they plant me in the ground. I find it sad to see mature women letting themselves go. That's why channels like Deirdre's are a must for me.@@sarinilsson1054

I agree, being disabled can make fashion more challenging. I need spinal surgery, but would rather exhaust every other option (which I have! lol)…. However, like you I cannot wear heels so I decided my next best option would be wedges. I have shoes and sandals in various styles and heights of wedges (obviously not too high! 😉), as I don’t want to fall off my crutches! lol 😂 But seriously, I did enjoy the selection here and agree the Mary Jane’s are a “NO NO”. I do love the “Chanel-look” flats.

i might try wedges, if i can find ones with a low height. My feet really need to held in on all sides, as I teeter. Do you have any suggestions? No one wants to undergo spinal surgery, but sometimes, as in my case, the pain is just too much to live with. I was quite pleased with the outcome of my first one and could have lived happily with the results. Sadly,I suffer from psoriatic arthritis and it loves to "eat" your back. ubsequaent surgeries ensued because my back was falling apart. If you are otherwise normal, then depending on what type of surgery is being contemplated, you could be better off having it. It is a big decision. i joked with my surgeon after my 4th one that I could probably do the next one, myself. @@malaika2940

@@nancyleo3987 Nancy, I buy the Van Dal wedges - they tend to have a decent selection regarding variety in height and style. I have some which are quite low. I do find the shoes are supportive. I quite like the style ‘Hanover’ - that might give you an idea of what I’m talking about. There was a particular make/manufacturer of shoe which was supportive, I’ll try and see if I can find their name for you. I know only too well what you mean. Morphine really just doesn’t touch the pain. Despite a 10-12 hr operation the NeuroSurgeon couldn’t give me a decent outcome post op. There was a 90% chance I would probably be paralysed and in worse pain than I am currently experiencing. If the operation was successful I would have to have further surgery every 12-18 months, so I’m really trying to delay the process for as long as possible, although I know that one day I will have no option. I have a few conditions, which complicates things - just my luck! lol…… Spondylolisthesis, Spinal Stenosis, herniated discs as well as good old Osteo-Arthritis are some of the issues making me require the surgery. Psoriatic Arthritis is awful - I’m so sorry to hear you suffer from it. However, it sounds like you have a sense of humour and like me, you joke with your Surgeons! Good for you! lol. Best wishes to you…….. Take care. xx

Great video Deirdre. Thank you. I do hate looking for shoes! I have a high instep, a wide foot with a standard heel, and am a half-size. It's very unusual to find anything that fits which isn't a lace up or a boot, and even they can be difficult, so court shoes rarely fit and loafers never have. At 5' 1" I don't wear Mary Jane's. However last week I did find a pair of ivory medium block heel sandals in M&S my size and wide fitting which, being a mule (or a slider??) didn't provide the usual slippery heel outcome. I didn't fall out of them either, which I had assumed I would. A result! But if I want to walk any distance, it's got to be sneakers/trainers. Do you think I can find a simple pair of nude adjustable slingbacks in 4.5 wide fit? Well, not so far...

I haven't worn a heel over 2 inches in many years and I can't say I even need some any more. I love a good espadrille (Franco Sarto makes a great lower heeled one), so those are good for summer anyway. I'm also tempted to pick up the Chanel inspired slingbacks too, but I'm leaning towards the all black option (black matte leather and patent cap toe). Still on the fence about those.

Most are just too painful to wear. I do have 2 pairs of Mary Janes from Dansko to wear with pants - the pants covers all but the toe. It’s been humbling to accept that this is how it is now. There’s a company called Sole Bliss that I’m going to try soon. Their shoes are made specifically for women with bunions. They are super cute and stylish- and $300 a pair. 😮
