Lots of us women look at the shoes a man is wearing and reach conclusions what we think about that person........suede desert boots vs structured brogues.....you get the idea.
How many of us would admit that almost as many of us look at the shoes another woman is wearing and equally make assumptions about them too.
So here's the thing.....do your shoes reflect the true you and how can you find those that do.
We can help you find your best styles and colours - just get in touch to find out more and we'll take it from there
It's all about shoes
I hopped onto a webinar about being Sustainably Stylish hosted by a couple of my House of Colour colleagues Ciara and Adele - they are long term sustainability fans and are bringing a modern twist to the subject through their Personal Styling businesses - in Scotland and Australia! As I listened to them setting out the context and meaning of sustainable shopping the penny dropped.....I am encouraging women to shop for shoes in a sustainable way. I hear you asking how's that? My business premise is that you should have the shoes you love and love your shoes .....that means they should be in your style, in colours that work with other items in your wardrobe so you get at least 30 wears from them .....not sure where the 30 comes from but it certainly is a good measure of price per wear! So....how would you fare in your shoe wardrobe......is it approaching being sustainable? I've some online challenges coming up in July and August to help you make more sustainable choices when buying shoes......just get in touch if you want to know more
We love this quote and are already choosing which styles and colours of ankle boots and leather sneakers to have made to be ready in time for the start of September. There is no doubt that all of our shopping habits have been altered over the last few weeks and most of us have adjusted to making considered purchases. There is no better time to understand what suits you best so that you love your choices - we want our shoes, sneakers and boots to make you smile.
Colours by Ell - building a webshop
You can imagine my other half's reaction last September when I said to him......since we're going on a driving holiday let's go to the MICAM Shoe Fair in Milan and see what we can find to add to our Collection. So off we set off on a 3 week holiday with the intention of arriving in Milan to go shoe shopping for my small business to find shoes and or boots you would all love. What an experience.....you have all been there when shopping for yourselves.... the heel is not quite right....I don't like the toe shape.....have you any other colours....it's too expensive....etc etc 14,000 steps in one day just looking at shoes and boots but it was all worth it in the end because we found Brands that have no outlets in the UK and who were intrigued by my business premise of only buying a single style in a range of the colours. So would we do it again? Absolutely we'll be there in September - shoe shopping just for you and loving it
