A few extra bucks for a nice pair of designer shoes? Why not?

Designer shoes are more expensive than the average shoes, normally, because of the materials and the method used to make them. The manufacturing and quality of expensive shoes involves harder work and care, among other things. They might be handcrafted, and this is definitely costly for companies. This subject has to be viewed from different standpoints because, just like beauty, the choice of shoes is a matter of personal choice. I personally have paid extra money for more expensive shoes and occasionally it has been worth it.

Designer shoes are simply gorgeous. Some people go on saying that it doesn’t matter how they look as long as they protect the feet. I can agree with that statement to some extent because the use of shoes was primarily meant to be for foot protection. But to me, good looks are just as important when it comes to shoes. Its elegance is, in fact, the first thing that catches my eye when scanning any shoes store. Ironically, I also tend to automatically go for the expensive ones without even looking at their price. The bottom line is that authentic beautiful shoes have a price, and it’s high.

Wouldn't you, ladies (and gentlemen) agree that designer shoes can look, and even make you feel, incredibly sexy? I feel like a goddess when I wear designer shoes, especially high heels. They are just so gracefully made, so smooth. When you look at them,  your ankles and legs look like those of a model on the runway. Not that all models on the runway are necessarily sexy, but when they’re walking with such style on their high heels…it’s so alluring. You just wish you had a pair. They just give your feet a better look, a better feel. In the eyes of a person with no fashion sense, this goes completely unnoticed though. It'd make no sense. But there is no comparison. Cheap shoes are not as beautiful. I can tell you that the difference is clear and it’s worth every penny.

This might not be the case for some people, but for me designer shoes seem to always feel a little more comfortable than the inexpensive ones. The shape, the fabric, and the cushion inside are just different. And it feels different. Of course there is the chance that one day I buy a pair of designer shoes and they are awfully uncomfortable, but for the most part my feet feel great. For comfort's sake, they are worth the extra money.

Now, do they last? Not always, although it depends how
