Jean Paul Gaultier[1] said, “It is always the badly dressed people who are the most interesting”.
Nowadays, girls are more into fashion that makes them more lady like and sexy chic. They wear pretty little dresses, mini-skirts and high-heeled shoes. You can see girls that wear their high-heeled shoes roughly everyday; when office girls go to work and students to school. When girls were asked why they wear high-heeled shoes, they would say that they wear it to make them look taller, to make their legs look longer because flat shoes makes legs stubby, high-heels looks pretty on any dresses and add more sophisticated look on it and moreover, wearing high-heels make them feel bold, confident and strong. Some say that they wear it because they just want to and some to attract men although they struggle very much and cannot walk properly upon wearing them. They are also into dresses, mini-skirts and short shorts. The shorter it is, the more they like to wear it, and of course high-heels are always the right shoe that looks prettier with it. Even when it is painful especially climbing up and down the stairs.
Women wear short dresses and high-heels because men say that it is feminine. So women who do not wear short dresses and high-heels do not look feminine? How about those who wear sneakers? Those who do not like wearing high-heeled shoes but do wear dresses?
I can say there are hardly as many women who wear sneakers up until now. Mainly because the idea of sneakers is for men only are still there. And when girls wear sneakers, they would match it up with jeans and baby tees. It sure is a little awkward to wear a dress and sneakers at the same, isn’t it? But guess what? There are indeed girls who have that kind of style. I call them sneaker-princess girls.
They are the ones who wear dress but wear sneakers at the same time. Yes, sneakers. Not high-heels, flats nor doll shoes. “Kikay” girls would regard them as badly dressed and not in style but they could only care less. They wear what is comfortable to them and are a sexy chic at the same time. You may say that they have gone out of their mind because dresses are not matched up with sneakers because it is sort of sporty and dresses are kind of formal. I call them sneaker-princess because they wear dress that like real ladies like princesses do but wear sneakers like men or sporty women do. They wear that kind of clothing anytime and everywhere. They do not care if they look pretty or people would tell them that they look weird and out of style, they do not care, because they do not want to attract any attention to anyone but what is comfortable that matters to them. They even wear long dresses and of course sneakers to sum up their fashion style.
People would always regard those whose fashion styles do not conform to the fashion trend nowadays as badly dressed and out of style. Indeed, Jean Paul Gaultier was right those who are badly dressed are the ones who are most interesting. Sneakers are not only for men and high-heels are not always a women thing. Those girls who always follow the trend even if they are not comfortable with it are fake people. They really do not have their own fashion style or identity but only mimic those of others and their fashion icons.
