Shoes for Moms: The Ones You Can’t Live Without

Does becoming a mother make you any different, as compared to who you were before being a mom? The answer would have to be a yes, and you knew it already! There’s added work, responsibilities and you hardly get any sleep.  So you see life does change a lot, for a few months at least. To help make things a little smoother, we have a few awesome shoes for moms suggestions.  Hopefully ones that you will actually find useful and maybe even a bit indulging. 

The Flats

Ballet flats, flat pumps and sandals are going to be your friends if you want to be prepared for the running around that comes as a natural part of becoming a mom. You should focus on flat shoes in general because there will hardly be any time to wear them for the initial months. Besides, when you are carrying a baby around on your lap, flats will do the world of good for your feet and lower back. 

Sneakers

Speaking of running around, what better shoe is there for that than a trusty old pair of sneakers? Well, it might be time to throw away some of the old shoes and bring home some new sneakers. 

Sneakers are timeless and ageless, especially if we are talking about a designer pair, such as Balenciaga sneakers. You will find the Speed, Track Runner and Triple S range of Balenciaga sneakers on SSENSE. They have the entire range in every color, design and size that the luxury designer brand makes them in. 

It’s a top of the line, designer sneaker, from a premium brand with a hefty price tag.  But the brand value, the quality and the functionality make it worth the investment. Indulge yourself a little, because you most certainly deserve it. 

Slip-Ons

Slip-on shoes can also be formal, and even some of the modern sneakers are slip-ons these days.  However we are talking about the kind of comfortable wraps that make you feel like you are walking on the clouds, as you stroll sleepily towards the baby’s room at 3 am in the morning to feed him/her. Aside from using them inside the house, soft canvas slip-on shoes can also be worn in the garden or the backyard. As they do come in bright colors, it’s probably a good idea to not wear them any further though. 

The Ankle Boot 

Sometimes it is said that becoming a mother grants you superpowers, but it says nothing about those superpowers keeping your feet from getting frostbite. Use the opportunity to get yourself a pair of high winter boots, because they go with anything. In particular, they pair well with a smart pair of jeans and a leather jacket, which is an effortless but stylish combination.  

Shoes may not be the first or the third thing on your mind when you become a mom, but in a few week’s time, you will probably appreciate this list more than you think you will!
