Nine West

I agree with the other reviewers, Nine West doesn’t seem to appeal to the youngsters and students but I think the prices reflect that it’s not really supposed to. My old boss used to shop in Nine West all the time and it reminds me of her. She was absolutely beautiful, sophisticated in her late 30’s with kids but still knew how to dress effortlessly cool and classy. I hope I look as sassy as her in my late 30’s and I think Nine West is perfectly geared towards that style. You don’t want your mum picking you up from school in a pair of Louboutins, looking like a WAG but you also don’t want her dressed like a boring old frump… Nine West is the perfect happy medium.
Nine West isn’t somewhere I usually get my shoes. In fact, I’ve only ever bought one pair of sandals from here but I can definitely appreciate it and think it’s perfect for it’s target audience.

Although my aunt loves Nine West, I have to agree with Stephanie T. it has sort of lost its young appeal. Fair enough to be honest, with most fashion brands geared to late teens, it’s good that some fashion lines aren’t trying to appeal to 20 year olds (and that there are some lines that 35+ can wear without looking like they are trying to be in their teens still).
I prefer Nine West on line store as it has a lot more choice in styles (and a lot more fun options). The prices are high, although the clientele I guess are supposed to have some sort of income other than a student loan. The service is friendly enough and the shoes here are what one would consider practical.

Nine West used to be incredibly popular, but then the hype surrounding it dulled down a bit. I think now, the style is geared more towards older people, and the shoes can be a little conservative.
Don’t get me wrong, they have some lovely footwear, it’s just not really my style. Although I did spot a pair of peeptoe court shoes, which were metallic snakeskin, at £89. I didn’t like them enough to pay almost £90 for them, but they were probably the best of the bunch.
Expensive shoes, which aren’t really on trend for the season, but fine for office or everyday wear.
