How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Stepping Into Spring With Cougar ~ Giveaway!

in Lifestyle on 04/13/18

Are you ready to step out in a brand new direction?  April is here, it’s supposed to be Spring and yet it seems Mother Nature didn’t get the memo.  So when enough is enough what’s a girl to do?  Start planning for that beautiful weather with some pretty new shoes of course!  Perhaps if we dress for the sun, it will come?  It’s time to put those boots away and slip into some light, whimsical and comfy shoes just perfect for a dash about town.  Today I’m excited to introduce you to the Spring/Summer ’18 collection from Cougar Shoes.

The Cougar brand has taken a step in a new direction with a refreshed look and an expanded product offering now available for purchase online. The new bright Spring collection reflects this change in direction with a range of footwear for both rainy and sunny Spring days, in eye-catching pastel and blush tones.  You can count on Cougar shoes to be comfortable, stylish and for their fabulous waterproof guarantee.  That’s right, Cougar Shoes guarantees their ‘Always Waterproof’ shoes for a full six months after purchase.

Here’s a highlight of some of my favourites from this season.  First up, the shoe that’s guaranteed to bring you a smile, even in the rain!  Introducing the Kensington Print Chelsea Boot.  How cute is this boot?

This sassy ankle-high glossy man-made rubber Chelsea rain boot has a rounded toe and a wedge heel.  Perfection.  This sweet little boot features:

  • Membrane Waterproof System
  • Always Waterproof
  • Memory molded insoles
  • Knit Lining
  • Pull-on
  • Anti-slip EVA outsole
  • Available in Black, Navy, Black/Blue, Port, Dove, Black/Check, Black/Houndstooth,Black/Folk Print, Mist, and Blush

When you are ready to move on to a more lightweight flat, you can’t go wrong with the Hula Knit Lightweight Slip-On.

This feather-light stretch knit is a slip-on and perfect for when you are on the go.  Slip-on shoes are a must for running in and out of the house for all those carpools!  The Hula has a taper toe shape and a removable molded foam leather insole.  This shoe features:

  • Stretch knit textile upper with sure-fit elasticized opening
  • Leather covered removable comfort-plus insole
  • Ultra-lightweight outsole with anti-slip strike zones
  • Available in Black, Pink, Fog Blue, and Dove

Another favourite; the Hope Knit Lightwear Sneaker.

A take on the classic oxford, the Hope is available in three colours, black, pink and dove.  This shoe is a feather-light knit lace with the now familiar feminine taper toe.   This shoe also has a removable molded foam leather insole and EVA outsole with rubber tread.  This cute shoe features:

  • Reinforced breathable knit upper
  • Padded tongue
  • Leather covered removable comfort-plus insole
  • Ultra-lightweight outsole with anti-slip strike zones

My new favourite is the Fame FAME Nappa Leather Sneaker.  Easy to wear with jeans or shorts I can see this becoming my go-to sneaker of the summer.

This supple nappa leather lace sneaker boasts a silver eyelet trim, bare-foot leather lined with memory plus leather insole making it very comfy for miles and miles of walking.  The feminine rounded toe makes my large size 9 foot seem smaller than it is and the rubber outsole will help me keep my shoes cleaner, longer. Learn more.  This comfy shoe features:

  • Soft nappa leather upper
  • Full padded comfort leather lining
  • Removable memory leather insole
  • Anti-slip side stitch outsole
