Rock Star Shoe Style Uncovered

In our culture, there is a definite obsession with celebrities, and rock stars. What are they doing? Where are they shopping? What are they naming their kids? What are they wearing? Many magazines dedicate entire issues to celeb style from head to toe. The great thing about high-end celeb rocker fashion is that many designers and brands create knock-offs of the high priced version so that you and I can still look great, but for a fraction of the cost.

Take for example Beyonce. The pop diva/producer/writer/designer is known for her love of expensive high heel shoes. She often rocks over the top styles with funky designs like snakeskin stacked heels or heavily studded booties. However, her shoes choices are often hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. For the rest of us, we can emulate her style with discount shoes and discount boots that are styled similar to her taste. I always love the magazine articles where they put two identical items next to each other and ask you to choose the designer one. The fact of the matter is, you can seldom tell the difference.

Another celebrity who is constantly splashed across the tabloids is Lady Gaga. Sure, her outrageous style is just that – outrageous. But, she certainly has pushed the envelope in terms of expressing herself and being a fearless fashionista with no holds barred. Some of her shoe choices are equally attention-grabbing, such as those 10” platforms that she rocked at an awards show. Maybe you’re not ready to go to these heights, but it does make you think twice about taking more of a risk.

Pop star turned fashion designer Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas is a true style chameleon. One day you might see her rocking a killer pair of stilettos, while the next day, she may be styled in a pair of to-die-for leather boots. Fergie’s ladylike glam meets rocker style means that she can get away with just about any shoe style she pleases.

Consumers aren’t the only ones taking note of celeb fashion. Entire departments of big brand retailers are dedicated to watching these trends and adapting them for the masses. You’d be surprised how quickly a celeb-inspired design can be manufactured and hit the shelves. If you want to get in on these must-have of-the-moment designs, you’ll be glad to know that you don’t have to pay movie star prices.
