Today, November 5th, we are Giving Away... (CLOSED)

Two Pairs of Shoes from My Shoe Shoppe

You know when you're seven months pregnant and it's almost Christmas time and you go shopping with your sisters and you think, "What am I even doing here?" Nothing fits! At all! So finally you just go sit down on a bench and watch and wait...

That ever happen to anyone else?

It happened to me two years ago. After retiring to the closest bench, I handed my sisters my Christmas money, and asked them to surprise me with some new shoes.

And surprise me they did with Bright Red Flats. I thanked them and then went home and put the shoes on a high shelf in my closet.

Because at that point in my life bright red flats were a little out of my comfort zone. But then something happened. One day I took them off of that high shelf, put them on, and I have never looked back.

What is my point with all of this? The point is shoes are a big deal. You have to wear shoes with every outfit you wear and believe me, shoes can make or break an outfit.

But where to find fashionable, yet affordable shoes? I'll tell you--My Shoe Shoppe! They are a home party business, specializing in fun and affordable shoes and boots for women. Their shoes are $24.99 or less and their boots vary in price from $19.99-$39.99.


My Shoe Shoppe offers gorgeous heels. My sister has red heels and I do not.
But I really want some.

Purple would be fun too.

My Shoe Shoppe has great boots. In black.

And Brown. And grey. And even yellow.

I searched all summer long for some turquoise flats (you know, because now I am a wee bit more daring with my shoe color), but to no avail. That is why when I found these little pretties at My Shoe Shoppe, I was thrilled: (and yes, they also come in RED)
My Shoe Shoppe sent me a pair of those as well as a pair of these:
They go with everything. And since I am constantly chasing a twenty-month-old, I am so glad they are flat (and not to mention comfortable).

I want to show you just one more pair of my favorite shoes from My Shoe Shoppe and then I promise I will not put pictures of myself on Give Away Today again for a long time (because twice in one week--sheesh!)

These high heels go with everything. I am wearing them in the above picture with a pink dress. I also wear them with a black dress, and skirts, and the occasional jeans.

Are you looking for a little extra money for the holidays? Well good, because that means My Shoe Shoppe is looking for you. They are currently hiring consultants. They will give you $100 off their start up package for consultants. They are looking for help nationwide, and specifically in Utah County.

Today My Shoe Shoppe will be giving away two pairs of shoes. One pair will be from their "Current Line" and one pair will be from their "Clearance Line." Winners can choose the shoe they'd like out of the galleries, as long as their size shows available/in stock.
No matter where you reside in the world you can enter to win up to FOUR times today.

For one entry, leave your first and last name in a comment.
Example: Jane Doe

For a second entry, please visit My Shoe Shoppe here. Look at their vast array of stylish shoes and then return to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and what you would like if you win.
Example: Jane Doe: I need a new sneaker. The Sahara-51 would be great!

For a third entry, become a Facebook Fan of My Shoe Shoppe here. Once you become a Facebook Fan or if you are already a fan in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and "Fan"
Example: Jane Doe: Fan

For a fourth entry, in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and a pair of bad shoes you have owned.
Example: Jane Doe: Once in college I really wanted these brown Doc Martins. I found the exact pair I wanted at a store in the mall, but they only had them in size 6-1/2. But I am a 7-1/2, so what did I do? I bought them anyways. By the end of a very long day at campus, my feet were KILLING me! I had to walk home barefoot--and believe me--it was not a short jaunt. Luckily my roommate and friend, who is the other half of Emily Squared Circus, and I went out for ice cream to ease the pain (of both my feet and a $100 down the drain)

The winners of the giveaway from My Shoe Shoppe will be announced tomorrow Friday, November 6th. Please visit us then to see if you are our winner and to discover our new giveaway for the day. Thanks!

One time I bought a pair of shoes on vacation traveling through Spokane. I only tried on one. When we got back to where we were staying I tried them on ane one shoe was a narrow width. Next day a 70 mile trip back to Spokane to change shoes and a whole new way home.

Stephanie said...

I grew up in a family of 8 kids and so my "shoes" usually consisted of church shoes and school shoes. Then my parents got a brilliant idea and decided that when I was in the 6th grade they would buy me shoes 2 sizes two big so that they would last me for three or so years. I'm thirty something and still don't wear that size!

Lori Woodbury: The worst pair of shoes I ever owned were actually my wedding shoes. I bouqht this amazing red satin high-heel mary-jane number to wear under my wedding dress, but I never took the time before my wedding to wear them in, get used to them, or get to know them in any way. I stood in them for hours during my reception, but I took them off as soon as the guests stopped coming, and I walked barefoot for the rest of the night...from the reception to the car, from the car to my hotel. I haven't worn those sassy red satin numbers since. They're sitting prettily in my closet, but they don't come out for more than a look. At least the pictures of them from my wedding are pretty.

Marcee Corley: I have a thing for shoes. I once bought a pair of $150 shoes that I didn't try on first just because I liked them and they were the last ones in my size. I got them home and found out that the sizing was weird so to wear them, I have to fold the back down and wear them like slip ons instead of lace ups...still cute though!

Lisa said...

Lisa Kros: My MOST uncomfortable shoes were some super stiff flip flops that gave me blisters everywhere the top part touched. Maybe I could have broken them in, but they would have broken me first!

mensa63 said...

Always loved heels when I was younger but the strangest shoe story I know was in the 70's when the outrageously high platform shoes became all the rage, my, then teen, daughter bought a pair and wore them until she came home one day to tell me that her friend who was waring hers literally fell off them and fractured her ankle. I still love the look of heels but with both knees replaced because of severe arthritis they are out of the question and I was so impressed by the variety of flats at My Shoe Shop, usually you go to a shoe site and they have one or two, three at most flats. Also am amazed at the prices. Am going to drop hints and their URL to my children for Christmas.

Lisa Malolo had a bad pair of shoes in college. Mom bought her a pair of Dr. Martins sandals and they were too big, they had a click noise when I wore them and walked in them and they had a part on them that dug into my skin and hurt soooo bad, needles to say that was the LAST pair of Dr. Martins I ever owned!

Katie Anderson - A friend and I were going out one night so I decided to go buy a new pair of shoes. I went to a well known shoe store and bought these cute pair of black high-heel, open toed shoes that seemed comfortable in the store. Well, they turned out to be the shoes from hell and by the end of the night my feet were numb from the pain and my toe was bleeding. Needless to say I returned them the following day.
