Personal Image - Shoes can be more important than you think - part 1

Let’s start with shoes.

This is one of the most ignored piece of attire from the male’s point of view and it can speak a thousand words about you. Women put a lot of emphasis on their style and shoes and it is one of the fashion items that can sit high on their list. You just have to go to a shoe store such as DSW or any other major shoe retailer to see that entire islands are just dedicated for women’s shoes. Naturally, this piece of attire is important for men and cannot be thought of as secondary accessory to the rest of the clothing.

When you meet someone for the first time, you may very well be focusing on their top-half ie. their face and bust and maybe not pay much attention to the rest such as their pants or shoes. However, when you are in a gathering of many people, it’s very likely that you will be scanning the entire venue full of people from head to toe. The important point to note is that your entire dress attire comes into full view and naturally the choice of clothes and shoes will matter. Depending on the type of venue that you are attending, you will dress appropriately so that you are presentable and approachable.
