I may try a few of those and see what I like. I think I like the look of the chunky low boots, I may have to try a pair of those on (in brown).</p> <p>[attach=251/16/oe6b58.480x360.3242847-p-MULTIVIEW.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627832 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 12:22:45 +0000 Mamaof2 2627832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Toms has some cute sneakers</p> <p><a href="http://www.toms.com/featured-shops/grey-felt-suede-womens-del-rey-sneakers" rel="nofollow">http://www.toms.com/featured-shops/grey-felt-suede-womens-del-rey-sneakers</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627829 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 12:19:47 +0000 KayKay 2627829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about a quilted sneaker (vans-type)?

Those are exactly what I have. They are Rag &amp; Bone and I got them last year from shopbop.<br /> I waffled over them forever. They are the most expensive shoe I've ever bought (aside from my wedding shoes) but they are AMAZING. Comfy, versatile, and I think will be stylish for many years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627734 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 10:25:20 +0000 SweetiePie 2627734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: I have the white and gold new balance sneakers from j crew and they are definitely a step up from a regular sneaker. I love them.<br /> And that brand I told you about, superga, they make really cool leather sneakers and high-tops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627730 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 10:20:58 +0000 Andrea 2627730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: do you have that exact pair of moto boots?

Some styles are actually pretty cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627633 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 07:29:25 +0000 SweetiePie 2627633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When you say "with socks" do you mean tall socks/socks that cover the top of your foot? You don't want any skin exposed? </p> <p>I ask because I wear Superga slip ons with the little ped socks that are super low cut. And yosi samra ballet flats are really chic and comfortable, can be worn with leggings or skinny jeans or work slacks/skirts. Super super versatile. I also wear the little ped socks with those. </p> <p>I also have a pair of low moto boots, which I think are different than booties. </p> [attach=3764/16/oe5xd1.236x349.IMG_9138.JPG] [attach=3764/16/oe5xd2.450x600.IMG_9139.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627626 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 07:07:41 +0000 Andrea 2627626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe a more casual short boot (taller than a bootie)? There are lots at places like DSW. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627547 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 20:17:26 +0000 Mamaof2 2627547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: this wont work with skinnies but I wear these with longer jeans and my corduroys and LOVE them - so comfy - have had them for years!</p> <p>Eta: pic with jeans </p> <p><a href="http://www.bocshoes.com/Product/BOC/Womens/Peggy/Brown%20Oiled/Color" rel="nofollow">http://www.bocshoes.com/Product/BOC/Womens/Peggy/Brown%20Oiled/Color</a> </p> [attach=4342/16/oe5416.450x600.image.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627534 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 19:53:34 +0000 Anagram 2627534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you differentiate between booties and short boots?

I also already have tall boots and don't know what else to get. But I need more professional shoes--NOT high heels (they have to be comfy) and nothing sneaker like.</p> <p>So when you find good stuff, post here. In my quest for comfy professional shoes that are enclosed, I'm coming up short. Finding nothing that looks good with dresses/skirts AND pants.</p> <p>eta: I've been looking at women's oxfords, but not sure about them. I've bought them before and never ended up wearing them...they never looked quite right with any outfit I put on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627520 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 19:13:41 +0000 woodentulip 2627520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like @oliviaoblivia I was going to suggest El Naturalistas! I love them, and have a few pairs. They are all comfortable, and I even got my husband wearing them. You can walk forever in them, and the styles totally range so most people can find something they would like! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627516 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 18:56:29 +0000 Charm54 2627516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a pair of LL Bean boots a couple months ago that I love. </p> [attach=2503/16/oe4yi6.450x600.image.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627512 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 18:35:08 +0000 erinbaderin 2627512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have these: <a href="http://www.keds.com/en/champion-wool/18741W.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.keds.com/en/champion-wool/18741W.html</a> and some Converse, but I wear ankle boots a lot also (I don't like them with leggings but with a wider leg pant I love them). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627495 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 17:51:57 +0000 looch 2627495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For what kind of wear, casual or work? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-shoe-would-you-suggest#post-2627474 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 17:13:38 +0000 GreenThumb 2627474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally have the same problem every year.
