5. Too much of faux leather
Faux leather often looks cheaper than genuine leather and usually everyone sees that the shoes you are wearing are cheap. It is especially noticeable if the shoes are made using brown shades of faux leather. It is worth saving money and buying a pair of real leather shoes a bit later rather than spending less money on a pair made from low-quality materials. So what should you do? Our advice is: be patient, save some money and purchase a pair of natural leather shoes when you know you can afford it.

6. Too much shine
If you like smooth or patent leather, choose white, black, and beige colors. When worn often, shoes of bright colors such as dark brown, deep pink and cool blue, as a rule, start looking ugly pretty soon. This effect is especially noticeable on shoes made of faux leather. The only faux material that looks good would be suede. Buy faux suede shoes of your favorite color if you cannot yet afford to buy the real thing.
