what to wear: casual shoes for petites

Many of you that read the Wardrobe 911 blog have commented or emailed me about casual shoe options for the vertically-challenged gal.  It seems that this is a product line that designers are seriously missing out on since half of the US female population is considered petite. 

So I ended up doing a little research when I was out shopping last week and I ran across ONE pair that fit the bill -- these cute shoes by Roxy. 

"Hmmm....I wonder if Roxy makes more cute shoes like these," I thought to myself.  Convinced that the designers at Roxy are petite and the buyers of major department stores are not, I went online and found lots more styles by Roxy along with some other great lines. 

PUMA also has a cute leather slip-on that would work great with jeans or cropped pants.  And if you are searching for something more sneaker-like, Tsubo has a great one called the Rhea.  It seems that some of the designers are catching on that a high-heeled sneaker is on our wish list!  What do you think of these styles?  Would you like to see more?

I have the Pumas in black. People always tell me how stylish they look. They are very comfortable too.
