The Shoe Buying Guide: In-Stores, Online, Flash Sales, and Shoe Clubs

Are you obsessed with shoes? Do you love the feel of breaking in a new pair of heels or flats? If you are a shoe shopper you should try to inform yourself with the various ways to shop for shoes. Depending on how or what your looking for here is a quick  helpful guide to shopping for that perfect pair.

1. In-store shopping – If you are looking for the newest styles and for the best quality check out your local department stores like Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale’s, Dillard’s, Macy’s, etc. If your not a department store fan you can find shoes pretty much anywhere at the mall or your local boutiques. If you are looking for a deal the best place to shop is Nordstrom Rack, at my last visit I was able to pick up a pair of Jeffery Campbells for $15.

2. Online Shopping– AmazonEndless, Zappos, 6PMModCloth, ShopBop, ebay and more. There is just an excessive amount of options. But advise, know your size read buyer reviews to learn about sizes and product quality. Also make sure you know about the return polices

3. Flash Sales – When it comes to online Sample sites we know best. Our favorite flash sale sites for shoes are: RueLaLaideeliGilt, and Plndr. There are many sample sale sites but these sites (in our opinion) have the best deals and brands.

4.  Shoe Clubs –  are a relatively new way to shop for shoes.

  • Shoe Dazzle is a monthly, online shoe club that was founded by Kim Kardashian. Show Dazzle hires Hollywood stylists to select which shoes go on the site.
