Alyssa Vingan at the Fashionistaposted an excellent article about 5 pairs of shoes every woman should invest in.  She has a great eye and picked 5 classic pieces that will always be in fashion and defintily add clout to a wardrobe.

Just a warning to those who continue reading: All the shoes listed are gorgeous and a bit pricey, hence the “investment worth pairs” but there will be no buyers remorse if you choose to purchase because you will wear them forever. Read the rest of this entry »

Do you ever wish that your sneakers could function as heels and vice versa? Well, Ann Demeulemeester has the solution! So, if you want to join a pick up basketball game or hang with the kids at a skateboard park on the way home from work, you’re good to go! Seriously, these shoes are just hideous. What is she thinking? And if these shoes aren’t bad enough, there are wedge, flat and platform versions available. Sigh. I know fashion is very subjective, and avant-garde shoes are expected to be out there, but these shoes are not and will never be fashionable. Trust me.

Ok I understand that fashion is versatile, and sometimes designers need to be crazy in order to get noticed. But it doesn’t mean that us customers have to abide by their fashion nonsense.

These shoes are absolutely hideous and are not wearable unless you are taking over Ronald McDonald’s job at at a local fast food restaurant! And don’t give me that ‘punk’ excuse (!!) because no, these shoes don’t have a punk feel to them. They have a clown feel.

I can’t even think of what to wear with these because they will make our footsies look at least five size bigger than what they really are. To me these shoes are a major turn off. And guess what? They cost loads of money. So these are a big fashion no-no.

I am sure these shoes started as a good idea, unfortunately the finished product isn’t quite there. And at this price?! Well at least they have a skidproof sole!!!!
