My blog focuses on the niche market of the petite feet woman who struggle to find their size in a retail market of the standard size 7 woman shoe. I intend to create my own online shoe store this year serving to this market. My goal is for the petite feet women of the world to unite and embrace our unique small feet. xoxo Ms. Petite Feet

still optimistic :)
I was so excited my first pair of shoes had arrived. It had been a few weeks so I almost forgot which shoes I ordered. There are still 4 more coming. I thought maybe all the shoes I ordered would come at once , but I was wrong. My plan is to try these shoes out myself and then market them if they are good quality, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing to the general public. Here is what they looked like when I got them:
MY FIRST IMPRESSION :
I thought wow ok kind of funky not what I remembered purchasing , did not look like the picture I saw online. I was thinking they kind of resemble UGGS and are cute with the fur. The first thing I did was take a picture . Second step I sent it to my stylish sister in California to ask for her opinion. I love my sister dearly and value her opinions. She always gives me the honest truth which I really need if I am going to market these shoes. She said " Hmmm not my fave girl. Sorry. Look like raccoon legs! Haha but maybe it's good for Canadian weather". Then I went to see my boyfriend. He is very sweet and supportive. When I told him what my sister said he was like yeah I will have to agree. A lightbulb went off then and I thought maybe I can touch them up my own way. I decided "off with the fur!".
What do you think? The raccoon look was not for me. I'm thinking they are much cuter now and just need a ribbon on the side perhaps in pink or white.
My Overall Analysis:
1) The shoes are comfortable
2) The fur was not attractive
3) They are affordable
4) It was very easy to take off the fur which makes me think they are cheap quality ( maybe from a dead animal haha just kidding)
In life you learn through your experiences and I am just starting out. I really value my followers opinions so feel free to post your opinion on my raccoon shoes. I'm optimistic about future purchases yet to come. xoxo Ms. Petite Feet

My mission to find the perfect size 5 triathlon shoes
I have decided that this summer my boyfriend and I will do a triathlon. It's something I would have never dreamed of doing before, but after supporting my boyfriend doing the tough mudder race, I decided that it would be a great accomplishment. It's something I would like to look back on and feel good about myself for conquering it. I was doing some research on the race and what gear you need to have. Personally I find the outfits very cool looking and attractive. I will need some new shoes that can endure the intensity of this race. It is my personal mission to find a cute size 5 shoe for the race. If you can help me please go ahead!
Here are some shoes I have found so far :
What do you think? Please leave a comment your responses will help me a lot . Thank you ! Enjoy the weekend :)

What your feet say about you?
I never knew there was such a thing as a foot reading. In the picture above it refers to the way your toes are aligned in relation to your heritage.
Here is a pic of my very own foot. I would say my foot corresponds with the Egyptian foot. I am of Eastern European Jewish descent so it's not really that accurate.
Want to find out what your feet say about you check out this website http://www.footreading.com/footreading/free-stuff/top-ten-secrets.
For fun I am going to share my foot reading. I have a narrow and small flat foot. I will also analyze my toes from this site http://www.london24.com/lifestyle/fashion/foot_reading_tk_maxx_fashion_shoes_shopping_feet_jane_sheehan_personality_secrets_1_1385709
Summary of my findings:
Narrow feet= A princess foot I appreciate the good things in life.( I do appreciate the fine things in life especially shoes!).
Flat feet= Often need support and am sociable ( I also need orthotics but this is quite true).
Second toe narrow at base and wide at tip = A drama queen ( I have to admit this is true at times ).
Third toe tilted to face little toe = Like to plan ahead ( very true and goes with my career as a teacher).
Long toes= I am expressive ( I think I am expressive to people who are close to me).
Little toe close to fourth toe = I need routine , I am trustworthy and reliable. ( I think these are all true but I am still working on the reliability factor in terms of social commitments).
I hope you enjoyed this blog post xoxo Adina

- Stuart Weitzman shoes come in sizes 4- 5 and can be made in different widths. There are an endless selection of beautiful shoes to compliment the petite foot.

The most flattering shoe styles for petite women
1) The Classic Pump- On a small frame these shoes compliment a petite woman. If you wear a neutral colour you can elongate your look.
2) Pointed Toe Flats-
These shoes are comfortable for the office. The pointed toe look elongates the look of the leg on a petite woman. There's no way you can become taller so why not fake it with this sophisticated look.
3) Peep Toes - These shoes make you look taller and also show your pretty pedicured toes.
4) Slingback sandals
These gorgeous shoes are delicate looking. It is important to go for a narrow strap to keep up the appearance of a taller look.
5) Ankle boots
Ankle boots are safe for petite women of all body shapes. A shorter heel will look much classier.
6) Calf High Boots
The first picture is of my very own calf high boots I recently purchased . I absolutely love them and with a short heel they add height . They look best with dresses and skinny jeans or leggings.
I hope you enjoyed my blog today xoxo petite feet.
