Comfortable Shoes for Busy Women
Yesterday, I started the morning off by stopping at the post office to mail the last of the Christmas presents to out of state family. From there, I dropped off a donation, went to the bank, returned a movie that was past due, ran into the grocery store for some fresh vegetables and went home for lunch.
After grabbing a quick apple for lunch, since my errands took me longer than I expected, I dropped off my husband at the his doctor’s appointment and dropped off another donation.
I picked up my husband, got a quick medical test done for him, and rescheduled another medical test because there were ten people in line ahead of us (and no one has time for that).
This weekend will be a little less hectic. I took my daughter to college so she can drop off some paperwork. Then we headed to the hair salon so she can get her hair done.
At some point this weekend, I need to go shopping at the food co-op so I have food to prepare Christmas dinner with. I need to pick up a few stocking stuffers, some gift cards and some Christmas tags since I have absolutely NO idea what happened to all the Christmas tags I bought last year.
Dansko Santa Fe Collection
While the craziness of my schedule changes with each day, one thing remains constant. I have been wearing my Dansko Shayla sneaker that I was sent for review.
The Shayla is part of Dansko’s Santa Fe collection and has lots of features to help you Stay Dry, Stay Clean and Stay Comfortable while you are on-the-go! What busy woman couldn’t use a little help with that? I know I can!
Find the collection right here.
Special Stay Dry Lining
- Dri-Lex® Eco-linings for wicking and moisture management
Stay Clean
- Scotchgard® for long-lasting stain resistance
- Cleansport NXT® for organic odor control
Stay Comfortable
- Slip resistant
- Incredible arch support
- Superior energy return and shock absorption

Shayla Colors
Shayla is available in five different fashionable colors. I personally recommend the Blue Nubuck with lime accents. Just because I’m busy doesn’t mean that I cannot be fashionable. At the end of the day, thanks to my new active shoes from Dansko, my feet are still comfortable enough to keep on going. The rest of me may be sadly in need of coffee though.
