Designer Shoes - A Fashion Statement.
We place quite a bit of importance on our shoes these days. At one time
in the long ago past, shoes were meant to protect our feet. Today, they
are made to make a statement! Our shoes are a big part of our wardrobe.
They can make or break an outfit, and womens designer shoes are all the
rage. Womens designer shoes, however, are quite expensive! Are they worth
it?
For most women, the answer to that question comes in three forms - yes,
no, or sometimes. Now, keeping in mind that these designer shoes can
cost hundreds, and sometimes thousands of dollars, the way a woman answers
that question says quite a bit about her. If she says yes, that designer
shoes are worth every penny, then this means that style and fashion are
high on her list of priorities.
If she says sometimes, it means that in most cases, they are not worth
it, but for special occasions – she is willing to pay the price. It doesn’t
necessarily mean that she believes they are worth those outrageous prices
– it just means that she is sometimes willing to pay it. If she says
no, this simply means that she is price conscientious and she believes
that she should get value and durability for her money. The majority
of women, believe it or not, fall into that last category, and they don’t
believe that designer shoes are worth the price tags that accompany them.
Designer shoes are indeed beautiful – in most cases. There is also quite
a bit of prestige in wearing shoes that were designed by famous design
houses – when a woman is wearing designer shoes, other women – and often
men – sit up and take notice. However, that is pretty much where the
value of a designer shoe ends.
Looking from a durability standpoint, designer shoes are not sturdy
in their construction. Can you imagine paying five hundred or more dollars
for a pair of shoes, only to have the ankle strap break the first time
you wear them? Can you see yourself walking along a wet sidewalk after
a light rain, in $1200 shoes that have the sole disintegrating as you
walk? Most women simply are not willing to pay that kind of money for
one pair of shoes – no matter whose name is stamped on them!
What about protection. Remember, shoes were originally designed to protect
our feet. Today’s designer shoes do nothing to protect the feet. It seems
that the less shoe there is, the higher the price is – and among the
fashion conscientious crowd, the more the shoe is in demand. Have you
seen some of the designer shoes lately? Have you wondered how they stay
on the foot?!? There is little or no protection, and in fact, the way
some of those designer shoes are designed, there is not only no protection,
there is also danger involved when wearing them!
Are designer shoes comfortable? Comfort has never played a role in fashion.
No, in most cases, they are extremely uncomfortable. What about support?
There is no support in most designer shoes – unless they are designer
sneakers. Many models literally ruin their feet over the course of time
– modeling designer shoes!
But because each woman has her own unique style, and her own priorities,
designer shoes are well worth the money to a select few – these are the
women who can not only afford to pay the prices, but are also very interested
in wearing the latest fashions – designed by the most famous designers.
What many people don’t realize though is that these women are not in
the majority of women – these women are actually few and far between.
Most women would not dream of paying more than $100 for a good pair of
shoes – others wouldn’t dream of paying more than $50, and some even
refuse to pay more than $25! Where do you stand on womens design. |
