indulging my shoe fetish…

while having dinner with a girlfriend last nite…we got on the subject of shoes…so of course…i needed to show her my latest purchases…she loved them all…i mean…we both love shoes so much…it really was a no brainer…until she asked me how many shoes i owned…

to be perfectly honest…i don’t think i have ever counted…maybe one day i will…but do i really need to know? the thing about my shoes…is that i truly do wear all of them…some go on the back shelf some seasons…others come out to play…pointy toe may be all the rage one season…while round toe takes a back seat…you know the drill…right? and then there are the flats…they are in their own category…and let’s not forget the boots…

all that to say…that while i do indulge my shoe fetish…that is usually how i go about figuring out my wardrobe…it all starts with the shoes for me…

how does it work for you?  do you work your outfit around the shoes…or are the shoes the last to be chosen?

since we were on this subject of shoes…and my latest purchases…i thought…hmmm…maybe i should share my latest indulgences with my fabulous readers…so here they are…in all their glory…

all different…all necessary…well…ok…that might be pushing it…although they are each fulfilling a missing piece in my shoe closet…

loved the strappy bootie…sexy…and a demure take on an animal print…

shoe1 (3)

these were a much more classic look…who doesn’t love a pointy toe…and again…a little bit of that animal print…my go to neutral…

shoe2

these just screamed out to me…”pick me, pick me!”…and so i did…and i was thrilled to wear them to a gala a few weeks back…love the embellished over-sized rhinestone brooch on the toe…the fabulous pink…and a surprise golden heel…

and a basic black ankle bootie…loved the intricate small details that made these a little bit different…with a fabulous tie in the back…
