Thanks to PP for the link. I haven't received them yet, so I hope they're comfy.

They are insanely comfortable - and while I find them to be utterly hideous (almost ridiculously so, though redeemingly comfortable) I get compliments on them all the time, from both men and women:

I have them in the ugliest possible color, too - that weirdo silver. Got them on 6pm.com for about $60. There are more color options there on Zappos.

It's hard to find something sleek and cute that still offers decent support and comfort.

These seem to have more support than the typical sandal.

But also I don't care that much - I wear what I like, and what I like is somewhat clompy shoes that I can walk for miles and miles and miles in. I wear a lot of clogs. I'm sure you'd hate those, too.

Go to the Shoe Hive, they have a great selection of comfy and stylish shoes! They will help you and you def. need it.

They are not cute. Try kork ease Ava sandals. They are a wedge but very comfortable. Also look at brands like camper or geox or gentle souls or ones. My last suggestion is to go to nordstrom and get help from a salesperson.
