I must say that I am very thankful and appreciative of inspired designer shoes but, sometimes I just want a pair of affordable shoes with their own distinct designs. Christian Louboutin is king of the 4 inch heels right now (Manolo who?). Everyone is talking about those red bottoms soles. I am a fan of the shoes not because of Louboutin’s celebrity but because of the creativity he puts into his designs. I feel the same way about Jimmy Choo and Gusippe Zanotti shoes as well.
This season I have seen some of the most creative and sexy designs from Louboutin, Jimmy, and Guiseppe that in my opinion deserves a standing ovation. Of course like many of you I only afford these luxurious shoes around bonus and tax time. So, for people like us we have to settle for the inspired versions, which some are just down right knockoffs.
I could never understand why other shoe company’s can’t just come up with their own designs and that are equally as stylish as the designer brands. Afterall isn’t this how the designer brand got their notariety? Nine West and Steve Madden are shoe brands that I think do a good job of supplying their customers with their own creative designs, but, they also do their share of inspired versions. I want an affordable shoe brand that does their own complete line of designs that are not designer inspired.
