What do you like to do in your spare time?
I enjoy spending time outdoors power walking, traveling, gardening and spending time with family and friends. My hobbies include renovating homes, antique shopping, decorating and sending cards or gifts to family/friends to commemorate special occasions.
Before you were sent shoes to review had you heard of Hotter?
Yes – one of my friends recommended them.
Are you a ‘shoe’ person?
Yes… I have always loved shoes. They are an important part of life…they make you feel good and comfortable, complete any look and help get you where you need to go.

What does a typical day involve for you?
I am recently retired and I am enjoying spending time with my husband, mother, brother and friends. I balance my time between our homes in Westchester County, New York (30 mins north of New York City), Lake House on the great lake; Lake Ontario in NY and our farm in Jefferson County NY. We also enjoy visiting our 25 year old son in Texas.
Why are comfy shoes a must?
Because I am always on the go, on my feet, and being comfortable is very important to me…I do a great deal of multi-tasking and when you need to accomplish a lot each day, the only way to do that is to be comfortable so you can go, go, go…
How does your job vary?
Every day is a gift so I try to get the most out of it and be as productive as possible.

Which shoes did you review?
The Vault Active shoes in Black Nubuck.
What were your first thoughts about the shoes when you opened the box?
Very cool looking with a nice silhouette and very versatile. I knew they were perfect for my lifestyle because I would be able to wear them with a lot of outfits.
How did the shoes feel when you first put them on? And where did you first wear them to?
They instantly felt great. I couldn’t believe how nice and lightweight they were. They looked great on. I wore them the first time on a nice walk with my husband along a path overlooking the Hudson River in New York.
What do you like most about the shoes?
They look great, they are very lightweight and comfortable and I can wear them with a lot of outfits.
Where else would you wear your Hotter shoes to?
Visiting friends and family, out to breakfast, lunch or dinner, antique shopping, grocery shopping, running errands, traveling… I guess just about anywhere!
Would you purchase from Hotter in the future?
Definitely!
