I've just had a cull & put 8 pairs in the charity shop pile.

But I still have 17 pairs!

2 flip flops
2 sandals
3 "going out" shoes
2 work shoes
4 casual (think sketchers, converse)
2 ankle boots
2 knee boots

I thought I didn't have many but when I list them like this it seems like loads...

Anyone make me feel better??

3 ankle winter
8 fashion ankle
2 brogues
4 wedges
2 walking sandals
about 16 sandals
1 wellies
2 brogues

About 6 pairs bought but not worn to go on eBay
I work on if they're comfortable then buy them in every colour!

And in my defence looking at you DH I only have a few handbags!!

2 trainers
1 Converse
1 ballet style
1 high heel shoes
1 walking boot
1 dressy boot flat
1 dressy boot high
1 flat ankle boot
around 6 random pairs sandals

I am very hard on shoes and wreck them regularly or I would have more. I have to buy them quite often.

I think I have a problem that I can't just have one of a type of shoe! I think it's a fear that if I lose one/one breaks I'll be shoeless then panic-buy something unsuitableSmile

Five pairs of knee high / winter boots
Eight pairs ankle boots (five heeled, three flat)
Four pairs of trainers
One pair walking boots
Five pairs of ballet pumps
Four pairs of flip flops / flat sandals
15 pairs of heels

This is AFTER the cull I did recently. I love them all - mwah ha ha hah! Especially my bubblegum pink patent five inch stilettos that I haven't worn for six years.

I think I need some more sandals...

If I include all my running shoes then I'm up around the 100 mark. Might even be a smidge over.

I've recently had a cull. But am still ridiculously overwhelmed with shoes and boots because I just love them. I have 27 pairs of boots. 54 stilettos. 21 pairs of summery sandals with/without heels. 14 pairs of trainers. 2 pairs of Dubarry boots (both incredibly old and battered). At least 30 pairs of flip-flops.

It's embarrassing to list, but I genuinely couldn't throw any more away because I love them all.
