Sexy, Comfortable Shoes by Naughty Monkey

About two years ago, I was doing some shopping at a small shoe boutique and came across a pair of sexy brown, close-toed shoes and instantly fell in love. Of course I wasn't looking for brown close-toed shoes, nor did I need to add another pair of shoes to my evergrowing collection, but what's a girl to do when she finds "the ones"?

Anyhow, I'm not usually a fan of heels taller than 2 inches - I'm quite the clutz - but for whatever reason I decided to try them on. I walked around a bit in the store and was shocked at how comfortbale they were. After checking myself out a few times in the mirror and deciding that I felt like I could walk in these puppies without breaking my ankles, I bought them.

I had never heard of the Naughty Monkey brand before this purchase, nor did I know how they were going to hold up, but those shoes have turned out to be one of my favorite pairs. Even after two years, they are holding up great and are still comfortable. I've since purchased quite a few more pairs of Naughty Monkey shoes and have been happy with all of them. No matter which pair I'm wearing, I'll get compliments on them. I find that they are always edgy, hip, a bit loud, but most importantly, comfortable.

As a female, I find it very difficult to find shoes that look good AND feel good, so whenever I do, I like to pass the word around.

As I mentioned above, I found my first pair at a small boutique and tend to see them in more eclectic shops. But I know that Nordstrom carries them if you want to try them on before buying. Otherwise, they are easy to find online at Zappos, Amazon and Ebay.

If you like Steve Madden (which I love), you will like Naughty Monkey. Pricing is about the same in the $80-$100 range. Happy Shoe Shopping!
