Dress for Success with Rockport Shoes

Disclosure:  I partnered with Rockport Shoes for this post, however all opinions are my own.

rockport, http://chicinacademia.comI mentioned to a friend this week that the heels I was wearing were Rockport and she replied in awe, ” REALLY?!  I didn’t know Rockport made heels!”  Well, yes, they do! AND, they are amazing.

Rockport started out as a father/son company in 1971.  The question that drove their uniquely comfortable shoe design was, “Why aren’t there dress and casual shoes as comfortable as sneakers?”  Since then, they have focused their efforts on designing dress shoes with built-in sport technology.

In academia, teaching, medicine, and really any ‘office job, one is always on the hunt for comfortable, but also aesthetically pleasing heels/shoes.  Well, look no further. THESE, my friends, are soon to become your faves too.

I received two pairs of shoes to try and let me tell you, they are incredibly comfortable to wear.  I wore the heels pictured above and below two days in a row!  I walked from building to building without wanting to rip them off my feet at the end of the day.  They have a variety of colors and textures, but I chose these blue suede heels to add a pop to my outfits.  Now I want them in every color!

I’m posting the other pair on Instagram, so be sure to check out my post!  Now, here’s the main reason I am so excited about this collaboration:

When someone puts on a pair of Rockport shoes, they feel a sense of energy and confidence that not only helps them power through their day, but helps them make the most of life’s everyday moments; moments that can turn their daily routine into a daily adventure, whether it’s spending ten minutes walking their kids to school or trying a new local restaurant.

Rockport is inspiring people to share their daily adventures between October 15 and 22, and for each Instagram post that tags @DressforSuccess and #mydailyadventure, Rockport will make a $5 donation to the Dress forSuccess nonprofit organization.  Isn’t that amazing??  Also super easy!! So, if you have an Instagram account, all you have to do is post your photo of the day as you would normally, and simply add the hashtag #MyDailyAdventure and tag @DressforSuccess.  Each one of your posts will help donate $5 to Dress for Success!!

So, PLEASE tag your Instagram posts with #MyDailyAdventure and also tag @DressforSuccess.  A simple tag will help make a huge difference for an international organization that helps women jumpstart their daily adventures in the workforce.
