Bespoke Shoes

Have you ever wondered, 'Why do I still have these shoes? They must be 30 years old already.'
It was one of those moments, 'Ooh! I love those shoes!...' and into the shopping bag they went and marched home right alongside you.
Once they were safely in your closet, they were worn every now and again for, oh, 30 years... and counting!
Bespoke, a term for 'made to order' seems to be making a comeback of sorts in a economy where many are thinking about economy.
Now, these shoes were 'ready to wear' but I do find it interesting that they have a little bit of Steven Arpad inspiration mixed with Chanel... in style.
But, the most important thing is... how many people buy shoes that they desire to wear, on and off, for 30 years?
I say, 'Buy what you love, love what you buy and,... most importantly... know thyself!'
Then, when you go shopping, you'll be looking for that special something,
 instead of,
hoping for that something special to find you...
you may save a lot of money with this 'West Avenue' approach.
