Our Thoughts  

I'm always on the lookout for new sandals because, I'll be honest, I wear sandals year-round even though I live in the upper midwest. It gets cold here but nothing beats wearing a good pair of comfortable sandals when we go to the local indoor waterparks, pools or even when I'm running a bag of garbage out to the can.

I received The Green Ripple sandals. Immediately after I opened the package I put them on and proceeded to do my thing. Usually at the end of the night my feet hurt from walking on the hardwood floors, not to mention all the walking I do during the day at my full time job. Since I received the AhhSoles, my feet have not hurt from walking in the evening!


The AhhSoles are wonderfully comfortable and they provide just the right amount of cushion and support. AhhSoles are sandals that I will have multiple pairs of just because I want to try the rest of the line!
If you're looking for a sandal worth the money, AhhSoles are the brand to check out! You can find out more on their website, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest or Instagram!

Review: Skuze Ultimate Lightweight Comfort Footwear



Sküze (http://skuzeshoes.com/), a new brand of premium lifestyle footwear, announced the launch of its inaugural shoe line for men and women. The emerging premium casual footwear brand distinguishes itself with its signature “ultimate lightweight comfort” Sküze footwear features several key technologies that work together to provide its uniquely comfortable fit, support, and durability:

  • Ultralight construction - weighing only 5.5 or 6.3 ounces (half the weight of most running shoes).
  • Sküzeprene - perforated lightweight material that’s snug, yet breathable; conforming to the contours of the foot to provide natural-fitting comfort.
  • Smooth stretch opening - conveniently slip on/off quickly and easily while maintaining a secure fit on the foot.
  • Adjustable bungee lacing system - no-tie elastic laces for quickly customizing the shoe’s fit. Lace-free design also available.
  • Memory shock absorption - impact protection that adjusts to the foot’s pressure points while minimizing friction, heat and sweat.
  • Ortholite anti-odor foot beds - ergonomically molded, open cell PU foam embedded with carbon particles that fight odor-causing bacteria.
  • Dual traction design - EVA injected outsole with forward and reverse tread that grips the ground to provide a stable, slip-resistant stride.
“Three years ago we set out to create the most comfortable casual shoe ever made,” Ted Alflen, CEO at Sküze, states. “We invested countless hours developing, testing, and enhancing every aspect of the shoe’s design. From its materials and construction to its mechanics and ergonomics, we scrutinized every detail to create shoes with superior quality and craftsmanship. Today, we’re thrilled to introduce Sküze as a lifestyle shoe brand that lives up to our vision, delivering unparalleled comfort and support for tackling life’s everyday challenges.”

Sküze’s inaugural shoe line features two attractive unisex models, including the Miami and the Venice. Inspired by the “Magic City,” the Miami combines style, form and function. The shoe’s adjustable bungee lacing system and reinforced toe and heel lend aesthetic accents and added support.

Meanwhile, the Venice’s seamless, lace-free design offers a minimalistic look perfect for complementing any casual outfit. The curb appeal of this unpretentious slip-on packs more than meets the eye. With its casual elegance and unsuspecting state-of-the-art comfort, the Venice truly looks as great as it feels. Available in an assortment of color combinations for both men and women, Sküze offers a range of styles to choose from.

Sküze was selected to launch on Amazon Exclusives (http://www.amazon.com/exclusives), a program Amazon launched last year to provide customers with exclusive access to innovative products.

Our Thoughts
It's like Sküze took the comfort of your favorite pair of bedroom slippers and paired with them with the support and soles of your favorite shoes.  These have become my FAVORITE shoes to wear!  I love the ease of slipping them on and off.  And they're comfy enough to wear all day - while they're not going to keep your feet warm outside on a Minnesota winter day, they will keep your feet comfy warm inside the house, not sacrificing any comfort.

Sküze sent me a pair of the Venice in black and I've been wearing them almost every single day since they arrived (except for the wedding I attended). They are comfy and breathable and have a nice casual look. Pair them with jeans, or your favorite yoga pants (not so much with the dressy wedding wear LOL).



Most house slippers with soles have some of the crappiest soles on the planet - they either separate from the slipper because they're cheaply made, wear out because they are so thin, or crack because they're not very flexible.  Granted Sküze aren't exactly meant for the lifestyle of a house slipper - but they are comfy enough to be worn as such!  Except better - because the soles are So. Much. Better. !!!!


Sküze soles have this backwards/forwards tread for better traction.  This morning I wore them out in the freezing rain (gotta love Minnesota in November!) while I ran errands; not everything was ice covered but there was fresh sleet on the ground and I didn't slide around at all.  I don't know how they'll perform on glare ice, but those days are coming.

The fit: I have average-width feet, and these are a fairly snug fit.  The very first time I put them on, they fit pretty close to the ends of my toes.  I wear a 7 to a 7.5 depending on the shoe brand, and these are a 7.5.  The Sküzeprene does conform to the shape of your foot, and after a day or so the closeness to the tips of my toes wasn't an issue anymore.




Width-wise, they are snug enough to be completely comfortable, but for a more athletic endeavor where I need the shoes to be a bit tighter I'll still wear my favorite sneakers. The problem with my sneakers is after wearing them all day, the tops of my feet begin to ache from having them laced as snug - loosen the laces, and then the shoe slips around a bit.

I find I'm actually more productive during the day if I'm wearing a pair of shoes with good traction - they encourage me to move faster.   Sküze shoes are definitely a 5-star shoe for me!

My Thoughts

Kushyfoot sent me several of their items to try. I was excited to try a wide range of their products. It seems they have a sock for everything. 

The Kushy knee highs were comfortable and weren't tight on me like some in the past. I didn't get itchy in them as I wore them. They also have sole massaging feet which I really like.

The Peep toe sock is perfect for those open toe shoes. It covers your foot, but your toes stick out. This is nice because I get sweaty feet in my shoes. So having this option was a life saver and saved me from smelly feet.

There was a second pair of knee highs. These ones were made of microfiber and a little thicker. But like the others, they were comfortable and even included a comfort band. These also had massaging souls which I have to say, feel really nice.

My favorite was the foot cover socks that were extreme low cut.


My foot is a little wide from wearing flip flops a lot, but after a little twisting, I got them to fit. These will definitely not show when wearing cute flats.

The last item I received were they flats to go, which come in a cute little bag you can toss in your purse. I wore the extreme low foot covers with the shoes, and as you can see, you can't see the socks.



The shoes were easy to walk on and the socks didn't slip down my heels like others have in the past. Overall, I really liked the products from Kushyfoot. These are a must have for any woman.

Got Cold Feet? Heat Holders is the Solution

By Tara. *Item received for review. No financial reimbursement*


My husband has cold feet. No, no, he already made it down the aisle. I don't mean that kind of cold feet... I mean he has poor blood circulation or whatever and his feet are like ice. If he wants to make me scream, all he has to do is touch me with one of his ice-cold feet under the covers. Yikes!

I'm pleased to share this product with you. I honestly have no complaints about these Heat Holders. Both my husband and myself received a pair of socks.

A cool fact I must throw in here: Heat Holders® are non-binding. They are diabetic friendly and provide relief for cold feet due to circulation problems.

What they say: As far as is known and have ever been tested Heat Holders® socks are the warmest thermal socks in the world. They are over 7x warmer than regular cotton socks and 3x warmer than ordinary thermal socks. They are better than heated, electric or battery operated socks because you can just put them on without fussing with batteries, wires etc. Heat Holders® means No more cold feet!

What I say: Spot on, mate. When I first put these on my husband's feet, he said, "My feet are going to get too hot! They're going to sweat."

Two hours later, I asked him, "How do your feet feel?"

"GREAT!" And he's wearing them around the house like slippers now.

My thoughts:
-They are incredibly soft. I felt as though I was walking on cotton balls or even clouds as I trooped around on the hard floors of my home.
-Like him, I must agree my feet did NOT get too hot as I feared. Somehow these socks retain the perfect temperature.
-A bit thick to wear under shoes, so I probably should have gotten the slipper sock as that is what I'm using them as.

For more information, like Heat Holders on FB, follow them on twitter, or watch the following video.

Consider buying a pair of these for that person with cold feet this holiday season...no, not that kind of cold feet!

Lacoste Girl's Shoe Review


***Product was received for free in exchange for an honest review.***



Named for the renowned French tennis player, Lacoste revolutionized the sportswear market with its signature cotton piqué shirts in the 1930s. Today, the brand is a casual blend of sports and fashion that maintains the understated, preppy style—and iconic crocodile logo—that made it an international favorite.




  • A signature crocodile logo preps-up a low-profile canvas sneaker.
    • Textile upper and lining/rubber sole.
    • By Lacoste; imported.
    • Kids' Shoes.
    • For best care of this product, wipe with a damp cloth for tough stains. 

    Our Thoughts

    These are super cute!! Arrived just in time because my oldest had just outgrown her previous pair of tennis shoes. These look much sturdier than the regular ole shoes you can buy at your local stores. I love the laces, I know that sounds weird but I cannot stand the laces on shoes that are too slippery and they never stay tied. With a child, untied shoes is not a good thing, that is just an accident waiting to happen. These laces are long enough to even double tie and they do not come undone!

    I know the crocodile is the logo, but my daughter thought it was so super cute to have it on her pair of pink shoes. They fit her perfectly and are breathable, which is good for the summer time right now!

    Living in the Ozarks, there are rocks everywhere, not to mention a billion little thorns all over the ground that you cannot see. Flip flops just are not working in this region because I am constantly picking tiny rocks and thorns out of my own shoes. It's important to protect the little ones feet and these shoes are the perfect type to do so!

    Be sure to get your pair here: nordstrom.com

    Check out Lacoste's FB page here and their website here. They offer much more than just shoes!
