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!

Tamsen said...

Tamsen Keyes: The worst shoe purchase I made was on a pair of clearance shoes while on vacation. When I got home and went to wear them out for the first time I thought they felt weird and realized they were two different sizes. One shoe was significantly too big. I guess I didn't try them both while at the store.

I bought a pair of neutral colored heels so that I could use them for multiple outfits. I wore them for the first time at a wedding, thinking I looked pretty good. The first two steps I took, I walked right out of the shoes!! I had to scrunch my toes to keep them on my feet! My daughter tried them and had the same issue....off to the thrift store pile with them!!

Denise Paul. I really kind of love the brown Wild Diva boots, although I'm not sure if I'd ever really wear them - I'm too short for knee high boots, and I'd have to try them on folded over to see if I liked them. I LOVE the shoe part of that, though. If they were booties, they'd be perfect.

Otherwise, I really like the Blossom Collection, Lepo 1.

Frances Egbert: the worst pair of shoes I ever had I bought to complete a costume, and they were the perfect 1920s black and white loafer type shoe with the detailing and everything but they were 1 full size too big and since they were flats it made my feet look huge! The problem was I spent way too much on them and felt like I had to get good Use out of them. Although every time I put them on and tried to walk out of the out I'd trip down the stairs because they would just fall off.... ha ha ha oh the things we do to look "cute" and get our moneys worth ;)

Denise Paul. I once had these very cute black booties - I loved the style of them, and they were very comfortable. But then, right after I got them, I went to NYC for the first time, and for some reason I thought I could walk around in those boots all day and be fine. My feet almost DIED. I had to buy a pair of Converse at a store in the city, taking the boots off and putting them in the box. It took my feet a couple of weeks to recover, and I never was able to wear those boots again.

Sandra Taylor said...

Sandra Taylor - I have a pair of shoes that are all beaded and pretty to look at but the heel is too low and the shoes are backless and they don't stay on very well. I never wear them for more than a few seconds because by the time I walk from my closet to my bedroom door, I decide that I can't possibly wear those shoes because they slip off and they just aren't right. So I put them back on the shelf and chose something else.

Bethany said...

Bethany Kestner - I really can't remember a bad pair of shoes that I've had, though I'm sure there have been some, but one of my favorite pairs of shoes actually fell apart when I was wearing it at church one day. The heel just dissolved into 4 or 5 different pieces. So sad!
