how to prevent shoe blisters

A few days ago, I bought a pair of shoes that I splurged on because they were so pretty. I wore them out to dinner the next day, and when we got home, my left foot was covered in blisters and redness.

When your feet feel uncomfortable while wearing the shoes, remove them and put on other shoes instead before returning back into the ones you want to wear 3 more hours later so that you can break in their fronts too.
