				<description>&#060;p&#062;Michelle, I happened upon these today which come in an 11 and a wide width.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;a href=&#034;http://www.zappos.com/david-tate-vera-black-leather?zlfid=111&#034; rel=&#034;nofollow&#034;&#062;http://www.zappos.com/david-ta.....?zlfid=111&#060;/a&#062;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;They have a chunky 2&#034; heel and a kind of ruched slightly slouchy (but not too slouchy) shaft.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Sarah, those BC booties sound like they may just be perfect!! Not sold on Canadian Zappos, but I'll scout around some more.  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>  Thank you so much for looking around for me!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Angie, it varies. Wide is preferrable, but I've been able to fit into some standard sizings like the AK loafers and the new Nine West wedges on the other thread. I just need the flexibility to take it up to a size 11 and a cut that isn't inherently too narrow.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Yes, I love both pairs Sarah linked to... especially the last pair!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;The loafers are great. The pewter looks more gold to me though. Are you okay with gold?

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Michelle I have a pair very similar to what Sarah linked to from last winter. They are extermely comfortable and verstile. I think you would like them.

&#060;p&#062;They have the lower vamp like your current pair.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thanks for hunting, ladies!&#060;br /&#062;
Sarah, the ones you linked to sound cute! Would the higher shaft pose a problem for skirt wear? I thought it was preferrable to expose the ankle bone somewhat?&#060;br /&#062;
Two inch heel is ideal...and it can't be super spiky. I don't do well with unstable heels. So wedges and stacked options are great. :)&#060;br /&#062;
I'll have to see if they can be ordered through the Canadian zappos. Sadly the Nine West cleeos can't be!
&#060;/p&#062;

&#060;p&#062;These are by Lifestride and are available in regular and wide widths. They have a similar shape to your almost perfect booties, and are in a suede fabric.&#060;br /&#062;
They are 1&#034; tall with a small wedge as opposed to a heel, and have some rushing detail and a subtle little bow at the outside of the ankle. They have a slightly taller shaft than your current booties, but I could see these as versatile with both bootcuts, skirts, or with skinnies or leggings. Let me know if you want more details.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;No luck finding a similar pair of booties yet.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;The loafers are really nice looking. My only concern is that they aren't really &#034;pewter&#034; like you had originally wanted. Kind of a misnomer. They are a white/black/grey snakeskin with a gold metallic trim and then silver hardware.They are very light colored in the pictures. None of the other colors are a metallic though.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;love the loafer in the pewter snake.  it's most similar to a driving shoe with a snub nose and rubber bottoms.  they look super comfy.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;love those booties peeking out from the ends of the leggings.  not usually a fan of booties, but these i love.  so sorry that the heel does not work for you.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Ok, it's not as arduous as it sounds, because I may have found one sollution. My two urgent footwear needs are a pair of black booties and a pair of interesting loafers, ideally with maximum versatility. I *may* have found the loafers -- I found a pair at Nine West the other day and loved everything about them, I just need a half-size up that I can only get online. What do you think of these in pewter reptile? If other colours look better, do speak up. :)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;a href=&#034;http://www.zappos.com/ak-anne-klein-greater-metallic-pewter-reptile&#034; rel=&#034;nofollow&#034;&#062;http://www.zappos.com/ak-anne-.....er-reptile&#060;/a&#062;&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;The other issue may be harder. The other day I found a pair of booties that are almost perfect in every way. They fit my foot, look good with skirts and dresses, have some cool styling details and are made of lovely fabric...problem is the heel is far too high, resulting in discomfort for my feet. They're at least an inch too high, so heel shortening wouldn't work in this case. I'm posting pictures of them here...has anyone seen anything remotely similar that comes in either wide widths or size 11? &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Thanks, ladies!
&#060;/p&#062;
