You must agree when we say this, nothing dates faster than the toe of a shoe, apart, possibly, from the heel of one. Dispute this if you will. Drag out an old pair. That heel may be called a kitten once upon a time, but it’s far stubbier than the kittens you see today. Or how about that platform that was ubiquitous up to a year ago? Or what about the ghastly peep-toe that blotted our land for at least five years and is now blotting landfills?
So you’d agree that we are right! If you are thinking that jewelled shoe is not your cup of tea due to its blingyness, then know this: although it is stark and imposing, with some twiddly bits, it can straighten out your outfit in a jiffy.
Every wardrobe needs a pair of jewelled stilettos, no matter how minimalist/shabby chic/butch it is.
The jewelled shoe looks high maintenance and aloof, but like Uma Thurman it can kick butt and has a touch of the earth mother. What’s best is that your jewelled shoe will boss whatever else you’re wearing into shape. Going to a do from work? Shove on the jewelled trotters with your trousers/jeans/hotpants/grunge-maxi and you’re done. Should you find yourself having to hide your jewels under a table, don’t sulk. The mere act of wearing jewelled shoes will have had a butterfly effect on the rest of you and, somehow, you will have ramped up your make-up or hair, just enough, to complete the glamorous picture. It’s the best way to kick off the rest of your outfit into shape.
