Knock it Off: Giuseppe Zanotti Vs. Everyone and their mother

photo cred: Piperlime and Newport News

Okay so these Sam Edelman Perrin sandals don’t totally “copy” the Giuseppe Zanotti shoes that I wrote about a few weeks ago, but these are pretty damned close. When are we going to stop making what boils down to the same shoe over and over? I can almost tolerate the straight up knock off that Steve Madden made, but this “inspired” look is taking it too far. I guess this one really gets under my skin because in my opinion the flower trend on clothes as well as shoes is one that I can’t wait to go away. It just makes people either look tacky or like someone threw up a garden all over them. Seriously when Newport News (second photo) is getting in on the trend this is when you know you probably shouldn't be wearing it!
