You Have Beautiful Feet That Require Beautiful Shoes
Tess is,
in many ways, your typical twentysomething girl. She loves movies, tennis,
sushi, her dog Hank and her hometown of Baltimore--and most of all, she loves
clothes. Since she can remember, she has spent hours poring over fashion sites
and magazines to carefully dissect what designers are showing and celebrities
are wearing, and she firmly believes that the thrill one gets from wearing a new
dress is the best mood elevator out there.
But Tess had a problem.
For years, when she had nearly succeeded in putting together a perfect
look--perhaps an outfit that mixed a timeless investment piece with a trendier
item or a cheeky vintage find--she found herself getting "tripped" up in the
same place: what to do with her woefully, inescapably bare feet. Wearing an 11,
she was unable to find shoes in her size that met her aesthetic standards; the
suggestions of salespeople to try something in a men's or comfort style met with
her rightful indignation.
Fortunately, Tess refused
to settle for these sub-par options and in 2005, she enlisted her mother to help
her found Barefoot Tess. Their mission was, and is, to provide the best in
footwear--be it a $15 flip-flop or an $800 boot--to large-footed,
fashion-conscious women everywhere. Tess's love of fashion has never been about
how much something costs, what size it is or who designed it. It's about style,
and style shouldn't stop at size 10.
