Am I the only one to think that todays 'fashion' shoes are ugly?

What has happened to shoes? Horrible things like boots with holes in the toes - nasty high heeled sandals with straps and buckles going up to the ankles (I counted 15 buckles on a pair yesterday - must burn in the heat of a summer's day). The most ugly being the most fashionable!

I thought high heels were about making us girls look and feel more confident and sexy. These monstrosities just make all the wearers look very, very odd. EvenCheryl Cole recently sported a pair of boots with her big toes sticking out - yuk- they spoiled the look of her legs completely! and don't get me started on the monsters Gwneth Paltrow wears!

    I know, every shoe shop I walk in, it's got them ugly things everywhere and there's loads and loads. I can never find anything normal anymore.

    Everything just looks like it came from the Roman times.

    that depends on the buyer... different aesthetics attract different people. & by the way, the shoes that show the toe at the front are called peep toe shoes.. which isn't just something of 'todays' fashion... they were in the fashion a long time ago and designers have chosen to re-introduce them into 'todays' fashion trends.

    fashion is becoming more of a way to express yourself than anything else. it's not only to look good in it, but rather, tells a 'story of who you are and what your about.

    They are rather difficult to look at... they look hobo-ish, and not in the chic way. Some of the gladiator styles/shooties/booties are a good alternative though... ones that can pass for actual sandals.

    I hate the boots with the hole in surely that defeats the object of a boot
