Spring comfort shoes mark a trend that's worth taking from the runway... Finally, in style and practical options are here! Ok, some will call them ugly. Let's just say they're stylishly ugly (how's that for a fashionable oxymoron?). After years of seeing girlfriends in freakishly tall platform heels and wearing confining yet proper shoes myself, I for one am on board with what's been coming down the runway, and you should be too.
