With all the sporting events happening over the summer, I’ve been feeling quite motivated to keep fit. I am an avid fan of Pilates, and try to attend a couple of classes a week and lately I’m training to run five kilometres; for no particular reason other than keeping healthy. With the sunshine here to stay for a week or two, there is no time like the present to be outdoors, whether it’s to take a stroll in the park or run a full marathon. Getting the right clothing is important, for comfort more than anything, especially for your feet to protect them from injury. I’ve been doing some research on the sporting attire on offer this season, and do you know what? It’s just a little stylish!

There is a new look in town, it is called the mid heel and I am a big fan. A refreshing alternative to sky-high heels, the mid heel gives us a natural allure and enough comfort to walk in all day. From chunky heels with open toe to classic coloured courts, comfortable slingbacks to wedges with ankle straps, these heels come in an array of styles and colours allowing you to update your wardrobe without compromising your comfort. Combine them with any of your work clothing, or weekend wear. Here is how to wear them this spring.

Spring is finally here, which means two things — sun and special occasions. Femininity is clearly being celebrated in spring collections, with sweet shades and demure silhouettes with a touch of sensuality and strength. The feminine look is being worn for all those upcoming special occasions — from weddings to confirmations, or anniversaries and days at the races. A modern feminine look with a charming twist is your winning ticket to spring style.

From colour blocking wedges, metallic detail loafers, to classic monochrome, bright hues, and playful floral, spring footwear trends are certainly out of the ordinary. If neutral shades and classic styles have been coveted looks for the past few seasons, it is time to make room for more audacious styles that will update your wardrobe. Here is a round up of what to look forward to this spring.

With Christmas around the corner it is time to get your party looks ready. Celebs are rarely seen now unheeled so why not join them with a new pair of heels for the Christmas party season. Stilettos are a timeless tool for every woman’s classic collection. Designed to force you to stand on your tip toes, tense your calf muscles, and push your chest forward, they elongate your legs, making them appear slimmer, and give you a better posture. Born Footwear stocks a range of Bebo stilettos with peep toe and closed toe that would glam up any outfit for nights out this party season. Our range of stilettos start from €49.95 to €59.95 in a variety of colours from silver, gold, black, and nude.

Shoes are our guilty pleasure. They can finish off an outfit and flatter your shape. The rights shoes are as important as the right outfit. But above all they have to be comfortable. I have never met a woman that didn’t have a dilemma with her shoes at some point — sometimes you can’t walk in them, they hurt your feet, you don’t know what to wear them with, or they are not stylish enough. I spend a lot of my time on my feet, and after experimenting and looking around I was pleased to find shoes that suit me, are comfortable, and look great with my clothes. This week I want to focus on day shoes that combine style and comfort.
