Oh, the joy of being the editor of a website. Suddenly, my online shopping addiction is justified with a simple explanation; “People, relax, it’s research and definitely not a waste of time and money. Nope”

Ladies (and cross-dressing men), we all know that there’s nothing better than finding that truly fabulous pair of shoes, on sale, that do all the right things to your rear view, without making you feel like you’re about to pay for this at the cash register and at the chiropractors office. Ouch…That would almost be too much for ask for, wouldn’t it?

It would. That’s why I’m not guaranteeing they’ll be comfortable. But they will be hot, and at a discounted price. It’s almost the total package! But that’s what you get while shopping online, you can’t exactly sample the merchandise. But before you hit the sales yourself, take some hints from a pro who has been there, done that…

Hints for the best online shoe scouring experience:

Best selection of shoes on sale? Definitely Neimanmarcus.com.

Second best sale selections? Saksfifthavenue.com! Woo!

Worst? Stevemadden.com. Lame.

Site that you’d think would have better items on sale? Zappos.com. I guess with a return policy that good, you have to stingy with the sales!
