How to Take Care of Our Shoes

I think most of us own over 10 shoes at home and we will buy new shoes continuously. After wearing 10 times of one shoe, we may find that there is a crack on the shoe's upper. So how to take good care of our shoes may be a big problem. Shoes like our friends that protect our legs and pair with our daily look though they get scuffed, scratched, caught in carpet fibers even fall off. Even they are playing an important role in our life, we still ignore them from getting hurt. First we should make differences among various materials. For example, leather shoes should be polished and waxed for some time or suede shoes should be brushed in one direction. So, it's the high time that we should protect our friends carefully.

For women, heels like their best friend for adding to the self-confidence and showing their personal style. Unfortunately, it would be an often case--the heels are destroyed because people get stuck in between cracks of tiles or wood. But it can totally avoid if you use the heel stoppers. Therefore, in choosing the right heel stoppers, make sure those one fits the color and the shape of your pumps. Alternatively, you can choose the transparent ones to fit most of the heels.

If the suede heels get wet, just let them dry completely. Then take a soft brush or sponge and swipe across the heel. But remember that you should not rub or go back and forth, just going in one direction only.

For men, leather shoes probably are their closest friends as to show whose life style, while they are also an investment that let other people know that you take pride in your appearance. Care of leather shoes is not just about making them look good, which would be reason enough to take care of them. It's also about preserving and adding them life. Firstly, the leather shoes should be stored with moisture-absorbing cedar shoe trees to prevent them craking and permanent creasing. Then, it would be better if you use a shoe horn to prevent the back of the shoe form breaking down. One of the worst thing for leather shoe is water. Therefore, applying a water repellent to the shoes before you wear them is an important thing. There is no way to avoid  getting your shoes wet, but if you treat your shoes well that can be caused from water and enlarge their lives. Finally, using  high quality paste or cream is important for caring the shoes which will help moisturize leather and keep it from drying out.

Shoes like friends who accompany you from spring to winter. Just put our hearts on them and give them lives.

Some new trends of women clothing 2013...

As the life speed higher and higher, fashion trends also change faster and faster. Sometimes we may chase the lace pattern, and sometimes we love neuter look. It seems irregular that the "look like" past fashion elements hit again on the fashion shows. Such as the world culture pattern, I saw this element few years ago. But in 2013 Spring and Summer fashion show, world culture revive in all the brands design. Maybe this is call a FASHION CIRCLE.

In 2013, subtle sheer is one of the major trends. Some designers play with layers and peekaboo details fully using the subtle sheer trend. With this great fun, the marvelous body line shows perfectly. This season, the sheer clothing dominance met new heights. Why say so? Various artists can't help wearing sheer dresses on different events to show their fit body. At the meanwhile, with runways all over the world caving in to the alluring aesthetic that highlights femininity for spring summer 2013. As the picture shows, subtle sheer garments can quickly cross the delicate line between seductive and sexual.

In my memories, leather is an evergreen element in the collections. Maybe you may think that leather just for bikers and rock stars, but it indeed can carry the elegant style of women. For your surprise, leather appears feminine with a new angle. In a full skirt, leather is supremely ladylike. You can see that this one piece look gives the women not only tough but also charming feeling. While a part of us cannot seem to fathom the thought of sweating it out for the sake of fashion, there is another side of us is falling hard for all the pretty yellow and black offerings.

World culture is widely use from the designers as the exquisite patterns. If you chase the fashion shows every year, there is no surprise that world culture makes influence on the fashon trend. So we can see many Asian and African culture is often used to represent with the fabulous prints. With this exquisite design, girls can show their unique style and present a smart look with different style accessories.

Power suit is also a big fashion trend today, which is growing with every blink of an eye. Without a power suit today, the wardrobe of a women is nothing less than incomplete. Although a power suit gives a formal look to those who puts on, it has a casual side by changeable colors and design. The red power suit emits femininity touch for women, while the black one with a hat gives an cool image. How trendy and sexy look with all seriousness the power suit builds. 

However, fashion trends just collect the great hit elements from different fashion shows. Not every of them you must like and suit you indeed. You must know that you are the one who wears the clothes but not the clothes wear you. Just take good advantage of your strongs point and show them as far as possible.

Shoes again, HAHAHAHAHA!!!

As the heels project likes a raging fire, I have to do plenty of research on heels market for purchasing the fashion shoes. At the meanwhile, I have got a deeper acquaintanceship with the heels, knowing that why they attract the girls so much. It's not easy for the designers to create fashion heels in every season as fashion trends change so fast. So what is fashion? It may be explained that something popular in a culture at any given time.

This new season ACNE TAURUS allows the vintage design. Also chunky heels is one of the new hit trends of pumps. Several designer have been ushering in a solid stacked with a prominent platform. This sturdy heel is a hit among celebrities and style icons like Louise Roe and Emma Watson Anna Kendrick. More and more girls abandon those ultra-thin stilettos then choose the comfortable shoes.

ACNE ankle boots with the buckle strap and molded rubber soles leads the trend this year. Chunky platform heel is the sexy love child of 2013 chic and entire 90's era. As I can see, chunky platform women shoes are the main push products from various famous brands. This neutral feeling shoes can match any dress style. Black boots with chunky platform can get a rock image while the sandal with chunky jeweled heel emits an elegant feeling to the girl. Once you get the latest fashion element, you can mix and match a new look for yourself in different style.

OK. Fashion trend likes the wave  flowing constantly. I have found something interesting when I read the magazines, TV shows or watching street snaps photos. I'm doubt that why many girls wear the same brand sneakers as they never wore something similar before. After researching, I know this is called ISABEL MARANT sneakers and they do everywhere for girls. Even the chic ladies wear jeans or black pants, they also match up with ISABEL MARANT sneakers. Why are they craving for such brand and how attractive this pair of shoes is? On my mind, it look common and with no difference between other sneakers. So I'm interesting to expose why many ladies are deeply in love with ISABEL MARANT.

Firstly, this style sneakers added a wedge to an already pretty popular silhouette for a feminine flair and fit various kinds of collocation style. But the most important thing is this invisible wedge makes the girl who looks higher than before.



Secondly, PMK has announced a specially designed shoe in his wife Beyonce's honor called the "King Bey" Isabel Marant Sneaker Wedge. So, Beyonce is the latest high-profile celeb to have a high-end custom sneaker designed in her honor. And since the Isabel Marant sneaker trend takes away everywhere-selling out everywhere like America, Hong Kong and Japan-it meets the top of the fashion cycle.

So finally I know why it would be a great hit global hot pick among the world. Affordable price match up with the stars effect. I believe that Isabel Marant craze will be held a long time.

My Favourite high heels brand - United Nude

Do you know how embarrassed a man go to high-heel stores and fix his eyes on the heels? I have this awkward experience because I'm occupied a high heel project in the recent months. Due to the jobs need, I have to see various high fashion brands high heels. Unexpected, I have broaden my horizon to explore thousand kinds of top design shoes from big international brands. Actually, as a layman of high heels (nor as I never wear them), I know little brands from the heels market. Even I really don't understand what the girls are thinking. Why there are a large number of  girls infatuated with the heels so much. Although the pumps will elevate the look for girls but they really cause the knee osteoarthritis or degenerative joint disease.

OOPS! Back to the topic first. Among those weird design, I have eyes only for United Nude. As we know, UN was found by Dutch architect Rem D. Koolhaas with an amazing yet marvelous design. I quite love their unique design with weird heels and stereoscopic cutting. They put no efforts to try the new materials for the shoes. I admire their innovated courage to break with traditional heels design. So that's the point I quite love their design and spirit. Here are the photos I taken when I'm shopping.

Do u agree a pair of good shoes needs good display? To be honest, the fashionable UN display catches my eyes first, then I looked at those shoes as I never have before. This fabulous show room displays different styles shoes making me dizzy.(HAHA! Actually I'm attached with the men's shoes.) At the meanwhile, the soft lighting and neat shoes present a high-level and professional visual effect.

I am attached with this design when I first seen of this pair of shoes. The sales told me it's a part of UN's digital design revolution. The stereoscopic rubber surface makes the shoes like a diamond. Although I'm a man, I hooked on these pumps with the great cutting.

Let me show the next one. This is Calligraffiti Shoe with breathtaking hollow-out cutting. I'm thinking highly of it because the hollow-out pattern is unique and emitting a sexy touch. Imagine that how elegant one girl wear a turquoise chiffon dress with this booties. Maybe this is the chemical between the women and high heels.

The most peculiar design is this Ultra Z Loop of the weird heel. UN team uses the carbon fiber for this pair of heels making it lighter than other heels. So I really appreciate they are considerate for the need of every customer.  In my opinion, UN team breaks their own traditional design then find new concepts for women high heels.

I have got great funs after watching those high fashion designs. But seriously, though heels are so-call girls best friends, I am just still wondering why they will spend a lot on those things giving them a lot painfulness? Is that women looking for better appearance far more important than the health?
