Winter Shoe Help

[tiffw2012]

Hi Everyone!  I a major lurker but always love reading your fashion threads.

I'm looking for some winter slip-on shoes that I'll be able to wear this year.  I'm due with baby in February, and with my first, my feet swelled really badly third tri.  That babe was born in May, so I was able to wear flip flop and I found some great Clarks sandals that had some velcro so I could adjust on really bad days.

I'm a SAHM, so I don't necessarily need anything work appropriate, but wouldn't mind something that can look decent with jeans.  I'm in TX so I don't usually need something exceptionally warm.  If possible, I'd like something that can look okay with or without socks...does that even exist?

I was thinking maybe some moccasins or a Sperry type shoe.  I've never owned either.  I'd prefer nothing with too pointy of a toe; that gave me quite a bit of trouble last time.

I'd love to keep it under $100.

So what have you parenting?  Anyone want to shop?

These might not be universally liked, but I think they look comfy:

I live in New England, so I did fake uggs when pregnant. As far as comfort and right for your climate, I would do Minnetonka Moccasins. I don't personally find them stylish, but comfort trumps style in your situation.

I wore uggs when I was pregnant through the winter because socks were too hard. But I live in a cold climate. What about clogs?

Maybe I should try something backless like that. I have a couple similar Clarks with a back. Do you wear socks with these being backless?

I wore fake uggs and moccasin slippers (both from Payless). They were the only thing that worked.

IME sperry's run a little narrow and would not be good for a swollen foot.

I love my Minnetonka moccasins! Still so freaking comfortable after many years.

I was leaning toward something like this. Glad to hear good feedback!

I live somewhere very snowy and icy and walk everywhere. I've been wearing the Land's End All Weather Mocs for years. Not hip, but they slip on and off easily, have great traction, and look fine with jeans.

They do also have a backless version.

I have a pair of these in burgundy. Love them!

These are all great ladies, keep them coming!

Minnetonka moccs are great and I feel like they run wide so that is always helpful with 3rd trimester swelling. They are often on 6pm for a decent price

Another vote for Minnetonka moccs. I have a pair of the fleece lined slippers and the regular moccs and I love both.

I wore my Sperry's a lot. I have the silver pair but these are a little less flashy:

For all of the Minnetonka fans, how do we feel about these boots?
