I love shoes -- I can't really explain why, but I do. I have a girlfriend who says that women love shoes because no matter how much weight we lose or gain, our shoes always fit, and I suspect that's part of it. Great shoes can completely change your look, spiffing up even the most basic Mom Uniform.But as moms, we often default to sturdy, practical shoes, without any character or sass; in other words, we spend a lot of time in running shoes, or worse, Crocs. This summer, toss those ugly shoes and put some pretty on your feet! MomLogic's Mary Alice Haney has eight cool suggestions for hott summer shoes, among them a gold ballet flat and a pair of embellished metallic sandals.
My favorite of her picks are the Cole Haan Nike Air line, which combine Cole Haan's chic styling with Nike Air technology for shoes that you will never want to take off. The animal print ballet flats pictured here go with everything from tailored trousers to casual shorts, and retail for $185.00. I know, I know, but I promise -- your feet will thank you.

1. You have GOT to be kidding me- $185 for one pair of shoes? This is way out of the price range for most budget-conscious moms, especially those living on one income. I bought my entire maternity wardrobe for a little under $250, and a purchase like this not only would have blown my family budget, but probably would have landed me in divorce court. Ladies- if you want stylish, comfy, and truly affordable, head over to Target or Payless!!
