I was our looking for a ned pair yesterday, to go with my turquoise pirate jeans - but didn't find any. I have red shoes, blue, black, white, turquoise,two pairs of apple-green, 1 pair brown.. so i really have no idea how many. and like many of you - i still am looking for the ultimate pair - my feets are sometimes killing me - shopping makes my feets hurt a lot.Sølvis bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09867789635973706722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-36044754546052165162007-05-18T22:26:00.000+09:302007-05-18T22:26:00.000+09:30OK, not sure how many without going up to count bu...OK, not sure how many without going up to count but a rough guess - I'd say about 25 or 30? In the winter I only wear about 3 pairs (black, boots, a pair of trainers for bike riding, etc) but in the rest of the year, a lot depends on the weather, whether I wear skirt/short trousers/long trousers and so on. I do have a few pairs I almost never wear (higher heels for going to weddings etc) but it's silly to get rid of them, as then I'd just have to buy a new pair if I had to go to a wedding... Now I'm curious and will probably end up going to count!Kate Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04995181032124912822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-5699568321369855612007-05-17T14:07:00.000+09:302007-05-17T14:07:00.000+09:30I'm crazy about that pair of shoes!

Now that we live in a 5th wheel, I have about 6 or 7 pairs with me. More than I need, no doubt. =)Susan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09159163720029661287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-16205388401034775002007-05-15T16:09:00.000+09:302007-05-15T16:09:00.000+09:30due to various injuries, my shoe-wearing history i...due to various injuries, my shoe-wearing history is a sad and boring one, i'm afraid.<BR/><BR/>These days, i have to really force myself to wear anything but sneakers, but for summer dresses, i do have very comfy sandals and some flats which i wear with Superfeet, these super-supportive running shoe insoles.

Lets see: 2 pairs of boots for the winter (definitely NOT stylish, they came from the boys department). 3 pairs of crocs, 4 pairs of sneakers, black flats, brown flats and black (not very high) heels. But honestly, except in winter, I wear the crocs about 90% of the time.Tracey in CThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172273610231927352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-11663882695205468622007-05-14T08:34:00.000+09:302007-05-14T08:34:00.000+09:30I hate shoe shopping, because I can never find wha...I hate shoe shopping, because I can never find what I want. My shoe needs range from very grungy - lawnmowing, to business wear to business casual, to dressy, so I have 20 pairs, just because they have those buy one get one free sales for the pumps, and I figured I might as well buy them while I had the chance. I am still looking for the business casual shoes that I like.Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-12318624485851244412007-05-14T00:38:00.000+09:302007-05-14T00:38:00.000+09:30Two years ago I could have answered by 50-60 pairs...Two years ago I could have answered by 50-60 pairs of shoes. When I moved, I donated most of them to a charitable thrift shop because I don't wear dress shoes much any more. Even though most of them were in brand-new or nearly brand-new condition, they hesitated about taking them - the reason, they were 7.5 AAA with a AAAA heel. I wonder if they were able to sell them? LOL<BR/><BR/>I find that the Munro brand of shoes fit me really well. I dropped a can of peaches out of the pantry onto the top of my right foot a few years ago and broke all the bones in it. Now I can't wear a really narrow shoe on that foot, although my heel is still very small. So I wear trouser socks now in the Monros and it works well. Of course, we mostly wear trousers at work. <BR/><BR/>I have maybe four or five pairs of shoes that I wear on a regular basis, and two pairs when I have to wear a dress, which isn't often. A serious shoes-busting! LOL<BR/><BR/>Interesting question, and interesting replies!! :)Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230311970559999653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-20942682344570044892007-05-13T22:17:00.000+09:302007-05-13T22:17:00.000+09:30Happy Mothers Day Tazzie!!!.....shoes (im not a sh...Happy Mothers Day Tazzie!!!.....shoes (im not a shoe person)3 pairs of boots, 1 pair of sandshoes and 2 pairs of sandals lol......ask me how many belts i have and id really really have to count!!!!Rose Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04620700479783542350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-42843087721733743892007-05-13T14:24:00.000+09:302007-05-13T14:24:00.000+09:30My daughter-in-law is the shoe horse in our family...My daughter-in-law is the shoe horse in our family. She brought about 45 pair to their marriage LOL! I didn't have all that many until a 2-3 years ago when I started finding dressy shoes in lots of neat colors like lime green and red. At this time I pretty much redid my entire wardrobe - giving away work clothes that were years and years old. It was so much fun buying all these new shoes to go with the new clothes. Now I probably have at least 30 pair - if only the clothers still fit! I must get back on that diet!Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07125491177774966237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-61866026984185940862007-05-13T13:59:00.000+09:302007-05-13T13:59:00.000+09:30I'm with Tanya.

So I have 3 pairs that I kind of alternate, and now that it is getting warm I have 4 pairs of sandals/flip flops that I alternate. I'm surprised that I have that many! That's a total of 8 which surprises me.Carol E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02741550863747328734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-19349595736909551632007-05-13T13:19:00.000+09:302007-05-13T13:19:00.000+09:30I am ashamed to admit that I have probably 30 pair...I am ashamed to admit that I have probably 30 pairs give or take a few. But recently I bought THE perfect shoes for me...Josef Seibel brand which I think are made in Hungary. I bought the same shoe in brown and black. Then I also bought a new Free Spirit funny-looking little shoe with a mesh type fabric for part of it, and a velcro strap across the foot and one in back for adjustments. They are lightweight and give good support. I had to start wearing something indoors because I was having lots of heel pain from not wearing them. Anyway, the bottom line here is these three new pairs meet 90% of my shoe needs, all I need is 1 or 2 dressy shoes and I'm all set...so I have at least 25 pair too many, I don't wear them and I feel I have wasted beaucoup $$$ and it also makes me feel shallow for having bought them in the first place.CONNIE Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11524592276175272170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-29282246033049803242007-05-13T13:04:00.000+09:302007-05-13T13:04:00.000+09:30Currently I have 5 pairs of shoes and a couple of ...Currently I have 5 pairs of shoes and a couple of pairs of rubber thongs. And for me, that is a LOT. All through my life I've only had at one time a pair of thongs, a pair of sneakers and a pair of Sunday shoes. I have been extravagent lately and bought 4 pairs of Sunday shoes LOL. I have large feet and never find nice shoes that fit. I would love to have selection from which to choose, but perhaps in another lifetime :)<BR/><BR/>My DH LOVES the fact that I bought shoes for myself and am wearing something feminine and different. And they were only from Big W so I definitely didn't break the budget LOL. After reading your post and all the comments, clearly I'm not normal LOL so I think I might get some more when I find some that fit hee hee.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18687499.post-78031891320421998112007-05-13T12:24:00.000+09:302007-05-13T12:24:00.000+09:30Hmmmn...great question.

I think the problem is that I'm not realistic (or I'm the wrong person in my skin ! LOL) : I LOVE high heels, Italian shoes - black or red - (The "La Scarpa " are to die for!)... but I'm tall and wearing them makes me feel like walking on eggs ! I've got three beautiful pairs, quietly sleeping in their boxes, because I can't wear them (but I like the idea that someone, some day, will say : "OMG, she had such a good taste !" LOL)<BR/>So I definitely have to stay on my light leather "ballerina's" (3 pairs : black, red, and beige), "anti-slip" and heavier ones in the winter (2 pairs : black, brown), + flat sandals (2 pairs : black, red)...<BR/>BUT : I'm mad about bags, too !
