Signature Shoes Cute or Tacky ?

CoachGirl12 · Jun 10th, 2008, 01:07 AM

I think it all depends on the style of the shoe/sandal... I bought a pair of signature sandal wedges in black for my mom for mother's day this year and they are SUPER cute! I mean a lot of the signature style sandals to me are really cute... the sneakers/shoes are 'eh'... it just depends though.. some are cute, some aren't... JMHO

i have four pairs of sig coach sneakers...they each have their respective matching bag...i just have to make sure I dress down the shirt and jeans so I have matching shoes for a matching bag...I don't think it's too overwhelming

I also think it depends on the shoe - some I like in the sig (like the sneakers), others I don't.

I have one pair of signature sneakers. They are kind of like the puma style. I'm looking to get maybe the slip on style sneakers too. I actually like signature sneakers a lot more than the sandals or wedges. They look ick to me.

I had a couple pairs but ultimately sold them because they just weren't me (see pic).

Meanwhile my grandma has the criss-cross elastic sneaker style in both black and brown and she rocks them

I mostly like Barretts and flats, but as I voted, it depends a lot on the style.

There are some that are think are awful, but some find them pretty

Case in point: Joan.

At first I thought: No way!

But when I saw them in person I loved them! (btw, I may be going back to get them at Macys!) So to each its own, no?

Signature in khaki is tacky on shoes, in my opinion, I've never seen it look good on a person. Things like tattersall and legacy stripes on footwear however I love.

As long as the rest of your look is not too busy then the sig shoes will work. They are cute.

I have some silver and black signature gym shoes and I love them. I don't carry a Signature bag with them tho, but if I can EVER find the wedges that go with my scribble, I would wear them together. It depends on the shoe.

I had siggy shoes and returned them both as it way over kill since all my fave bags are siggy!

blackbutterfly · Jun 11th, 2008, 01:47 PM

love 'em...got 4 pair to prove it!! so my vote is for CUTE!! and yes i occasionally wear them w/signature bags...

I think it depends on the person and the style. I usually prefer the sig on a smaller scale, like a sandal instead of a sneaker. And it depends on the person and the outfit- if everything else is pretty simple, I think it could work fine.

I have 6 pair of various flats...3 pair of khaki sig, 2 black sig, one black leather embossed sig, and gold embossed sig. haha!!! I don't have any plain leather Coach shoes.
I think they are fun. Like today I am wearing dark bootcut jeans, a frilly white top, a navy blue cropped sweater, and my gold flats.

I used to think they were tacky, but they've grown on me. I have the Rubey sandals in black signature. I didn't like them on the shelf, but they are much cuter on! And I think the sneakers are cute too! I don't carry any signature bags, so I don't have to worry about my shoes matching or clashing with my bag.

blackbutterfly · Jun 11th, 2008, 03:18 PM

i disagree with that, but hey, everyone's entitled to their opinion.
