So what kind are they? Flat, high-heels, kitten heels, boots or flip flops with rough edges maybe?
We know you are wondering the reason for our footwear pop quiz, but there is a reason for this experiment. You can really judge a person by the shoes they wear and it’s not just we who are saying it, but it’s scientifically proven as well. Psychologists from the University of Kansas found that the style, value, colour and condition of the footwear can reveal a lot of the owner’s personality traits, likes, dislikes and even emotional condition!
