Wild Women Wear Red

Calling all shoe loving women if you are like me and have to buy at least one new pair of shoes a week. (Yes, that means I have a lot of shoes) You have to include Wild Women Wear Red on your weekly place to check out for amazing shoes!
I am one of those women who not only love shoes but enjoy not seeing her shoes on other women walking down the street. Guess that mean I like unique shoes, cute, funky and different shoes and WWWR DELIVERS in all fronts!
I know some of you are saying they have great shoes but they can be expensive Too that I say are you feet not worth it? I know mine are! If you are lucky enough to be there while a sale is going on — you have it made in the shade!
So if you are looking for something fabulous to put on those freshly painted toes of yours check out WWWR!

this is by far one of the greatest shoe stores i’ve ever had the pleasure of frequenting. although i no longer live in DC, i have the fond memories of this heavenly shoe store everytime i open my closet, as 6 of those boxes contain the most beautiful, unique and stylish shoes i own… all from wild women wear red. i still get compliments to this day on those shoes and if i ever find myself in DC again i’ll be sure to stop by. so what makes this store so great? well, it doesn’t hurt that the owner is hip, stylish and has a great eye for fashion. the price can be a bit high, but if you’re like me, you’ll pay the price for a quality heel that not many people will be wearing, let’s face it, it’s embarrassing to see another woman out with the same shoes on, and i guarantee this won’t happen with these shoes.

You want unique shoes no one else is wearing? Well this is the place for you. Fashonistas must stop by this store to see what’s funky and wild. I’ve never bought a pair of shoes from here because they are way too funky for me. However, I dream about these shoes in my wildest fashion dreams.
I have picked up great accessories like earrings and tights. If I was more daring I would buy shoes from here in a heartbeat. The owner is super nice and is not very pushy.

So many cute shoes! Some I probably could never pull of but I love that this store is not afraid to be the «not your average shoe store». I will admit that most of the ones I really love are always out of my price range but they do have affordable shoes. Also, check out their small but catchy clothes rack.

This place carries some respectfully fashionable shoes, and also some questionable shoes. I always wish they had more in stock — it sometimes seems like they only carry about 20 different styles. The salespeople are always very nice and helpful, and there is often some sort of sale. Of course, none of the shoes I ever like are on sale, which is unfortunate. They also have a rack of t-​shirts with trendy catchphrases like «Red Heads Do it Better,» etc. This is a good place to come if you’re in search of new work shoes and don’t want to buy plain old pumps.

I couldn’t help but stop here on my walk from Ben’s Chili Bowl to the Dupont Circle metro. Due to my impeccable timing, I arrived just as most of the shoes were 40% off. Yes, shoes…40% OFF. So I went and bought two pairs on a complete whim. Let me mention that the jewelry is awesome! Big, cooky looking earrings, just the way I like them. Prices for those were not bad at all.
They carry brands like Camper, Sam Edelman, and a bunch of others that I had never heard of, but were really nice. I really appreciated that all the shoes were highly wearable, even for my troubled and picky feet. The heels were very reasonable, and even those that were higher had a nice chunky platform. Wild Women also carries really great bags and t-​shirts.
The co-​owner is a very soothing and helpful person, although it didn’t take me long to make decisions. I must add that she also very carefully packed my cupcakes (from Cakelove) into the shopping bag with my shoes and put my earrings in a sweet little red sachet bag.

Really adorable and unique shoes (and some that are not necessarily my style, but I am sure someone loves ‘em). The non sale stuff is on the mad expensive side. but tempting. So. Very. Tempting.
Most of these shoes looked handmade, but with the salesgirl on her cell phone the whole time we were in here, I couldn’t ask. The stuff on sale was a great deal, but they only had limited amount of sizes. I was really digging a pair of yellow platform espadrilles, but they only had them in sizes 9 and 10.
The bags here were my favorite things. Some are crocheted, while others are fabric with screen printing on them. Oh, and fun hats, too. If only I was a hat girl.

Definitely always has some cute, some not-​so-​cute shoes, but regardless of your taste it’s refreshing to check out something different in shoe stores. I got the cutest wedges ever here on a good sale, and I loved them dearly… until they broke… tear.

offbeat, quirky, eclectic, colorful. does this describe you? growing up, when you asked your mom what she thought of your outfit, did she ever just sigh and say… that’s… really… *you*, dear…? here’s a little store after your heart, a somewhat pricy spot with good sales and a mix of designers. it also carries handbags, accessories, and a slew of jewelry made locally by one of the owner’s relatives. the day i stopped by, the woman who owns it was fantastically outfitted in screaming orange and yellow vintage — and it looked *great.* to pull that off takes daring and a bold eye for color and style. plus she was super-​helpful. i wish i’d bought those boots!
5 star earner: read (washpost, maybe?) that she had an epiphany in the peace corps and promised herself she would never work at a job she hated or wear uncomfortable shoes… i just think that kicks *ss.
