Hello, I'll be studying in Madrid for the fall semester and I'm trying to find a good, fashionable pair of shoes to walk around in. Any advice? I would rather know whats going to be "in style" than what a comfortable walking shoe is(I can find those at home, I need to be stylish there!). I've never been one to be a style hound, but there, its a must. Thank you!

Where do you live? Maybe you can buy them in Madrid.

I'd wait till I got there. Camper is a Spanish shoe company that makes trendy shoes, some of which are quite comfy.
Also check out Chie Mihara.

San Francisco Bay Area... I know it shouldn't be hard to find some here, I just don't know what styles are popular.

last year's advice but you might find it useful just the same

Chie Mihara are beautiful, but I find that their heels are a bit too high and not so comfortable.

Think about flats, and think about buy them in Madrid. I like the shops in Fuencarral and Chueca, and on the other side of the town, Hakei in Serrano.

Bye, Cova

Some female shoes currently on sale in 'El Corte Ingles', the largest department stores in Spain.

madrid is also famous for great fashion. may be you find shoes in madrid with great comfort.

shoes style depend upon what you are wearing.Talking about formal shoes,suited with formal clothes.But sports are in fashion rather than formal leather shoes.To be comfortable and stylish i would prefer good branded shoes that suited your personality.

I hope she has found shoes in the last three years.
