  • A lot. I love shoes. My favorite pair is my red patent leather BCBG peep-toe pumps.

    I find it really difficult to get shoes to fit as I'm a uk 9eee :noway: , hopefully feet shrink with weight loss (fingers crossed :laugh: ). I have 32 pairs of shoes but only 6 fit me properly :grumble:

    Way too many to count, I probably have 10 pairs in boots. Nine West is probably one of the popular ones for me and last purchase was with them. 2 pairs of wedge boots and black booties (pic in profile).

    Probably 110. I got rid of about 40 this summer. My favorite are Jessica Simpson because I have small feet and they fit like a glove always in my size. I can order them online and never worry about fit! I also live in FL so the majority of my shoes are open toed!

    Over 200...that's when I stopped counting. It's a sick and sad addiction....I converted the spare bedroom into a shoe closet and it's almost full!

    I have close to 200 pairs....I convertered my coat closet into a shoe closet and still have to have some in my bedroom closet and I have my flip flops hanging on the bag of the door to my garage.

    I agree it is a sick-sad addiction-but I love my shoes!!!!

    The most recent pair(s) I purchased were my favorite running shoes to replace my old ones and so I have a spare on hand.

    I have about 20. That's the usual number I like to stay near.

    3 pairs of boots,
    3 pairs of sneakers (Adidas are my face),
    1 pair of my reliable Birkenstock clogs,
    4 pairs of heels,

    All the rest are flats which I'm obsessed with at the moment.

    No flipflops, I don't think I've ever worn a pair before.

    I would have to guess about 20-25 and there are still times when I can't find just the right pair to go with an outfit. But that means it's time to hit the sale racks!

    Surprisingly I like Jessica Simpson's shoes as well. As you mentioned I find them to be comfortable and sexy.

    Well in my defense... (not that I need an excuse... hehe) I do some work as a shoe and stocking model, so sometimes I'll buy something if I think it will look great being photographed.. and then I'll only wear it for photo shoots. :)

    No need to defend yourself! I find most girls are like that. A good friend of mine has over $25,000 worth of shoes and bags. To me that is INSANE!! I am far too realistic to spend that much. Plus I don't really like heels, I have wide feet, so usually they cause my feet/back to ache + blister + bleed. For a friends wedding I was forced to wear a specific shoe, and by the end of the day I had large gashes on my feet from the straps.

    well 25k might be a bit much. yikes.

    I have wide feet too. I bought some shoe stretchers and if a pair of shoes are too tight to be comfortable I work on stretching them out for a little bit before I have to walk in them. It's helped a lot.

    I have 4o pairs, which includes 2 pair of sneakers. I don't like sneakers. I would have more but I retired and dont have to wear them. I really don't have a favorite. brand. I go by their style. I gave a lot away recently. I wish I was younger so I could wear spiked heels.
  • 1 Addidas,1 Danskin,2 pairs of snoe boots,1 Axia,about 3 pairs of flip-flops,1 Bongo!

    I probably have about 10-15, but i only wear about 2 or 3 regularly. My mother is another story lol

    My boyfriend admitted to me that women with an infinite amount of shoes is a major turnoff to him, and he likes that I have a few pairs that match everything

    Roughly own about 150 pair of shoes. Favorite brands are Donald J Pliner, Ralph Lauren and Nurture! Last pair purchased was some Ralph Lauren loafers. I'd say I have 30 pair of black heels - all kinds: open toe, sling back, pointy toe, decorated with rhinestones... you name it I probably have it in a black heel. One whole wall in our guest room is nothing but a shoe rack.... it's an addiction. But I have to say I come by it honesly as my mom & dad both have tons of shoes so I'm pretty sure it was an inherited trait.

    I own 2 pairs of flats, a pair of heels that I will probably never wear again, a pair of heeled boots, a couple pairs of flip flops and my workout shoes. So I guess 7. Shoes are relatively unimportant to me...they are more function than fashion in my world :)

    I also (GASP!!!) only own 1 purse (and it is not designer, although I get a lot of compliments on it ;). I love telling my husband how lucky he is to have me because I am so low maintenance!

    I'm not a fashion-shoe type o' gal. Probably about 50 pairs, but my current "rotation" would be:
    - silver clogs
    - black clogs
    - red clogs
    - suede knee-high black boots
    - Sorel wool-lined 'Caribou' boots
    - worn-arsed boy's black lowtop Chucks with little silver skulls

    I have a hard time throwing shoes out. *points at shoes from 20+ years ago*

    I wear one pair of black nurses shoes, if I am wearing shoes, which most of the time I don't. (The dog knows he is going to be put in his kennel when I put my shoes on and he runs and hides,) :laugh: I have long, skinny feet that are hard to find comfortable shoes for (11AA) I can't take a photo of the rest of my shoes because they are in a box somewhere, I haven't unpacked since we had a plumbing issue that required us to empty our closet almost two years ago. but that box has:
    1 pair nurses shoes; navy
    2 pair tennis shoes; white/AmericaFlag
    2 pair house slippers; Uggs/terry cloth
    3 pair pumps; black/black patten/pearl
    2 pair sandles; black/brown
    2 pair boots; cowboy/hiking
    I have no idea what brand they are, they fit and are comfortable, except for the pearl color pumps but I wore them on my wedding day and can't bear to part with them. I am glad I answered this post. Now I can answer when people ask. I have a dozen pairs of shoes I can wear, more than enough.

    I don't have too many pairs of shoes but I have enough to do a lot with.

    1 pair of black work heels
    1 pair of boot heels (sadly cat got to the tips of them :( )
    1 pair of shorter regular boots which I LOVE right now... American Eagle
    1 pair of AE flip flops, plain leather as I'm not really a huge fan of flip flops
    1 pair of cheap work out shoes, they are white/pink and they work. If they break I won't care and will get another pair.
    2 pairs of hiking boots. One water proof the other not. These were expensive.
    1 pair of fuzzy slipper type shoes... mainly for scuffling around and can still be called shoes.
    1 pair of low key tennis type shoes. They are brown and smaller but only good in decent weather.
    1 pair of flat boots that have fur and go up over your calf.

    So it looks like 10 pairs. I hate wearing flats because they make my pants get all scuffed up and usually they fall apart. I also don't care too much for most heels as my foot type isn't suitable and they are not really my style. I love smaller tennis shoes (not too bulky) and am a big fan of fashionable boots. I guess I like some substance to my shoe while being fashionable and feminine.
