... that is the present count of shoes I have. That includes winter boots, trainers, sandals, flip flops, ballet flats, and ofcourse, many a sky high heel. All accumulated during my 13 years working in fashion. While I'm not even close to being in Imelda Marcos' league (apparently 3.000 pairs and counting), I can't help but wonder if that's too many.
Over a third of them have been freebies,or practically so because of the discount I got. Others have been hand me downs or gifts. Still, no one really needs that many. Some (mostly the sky high or gala ones) I've barely used, but the rest... well lets just say I get really good milage out of all of them. Keeping them in boxes, taking them regularly to the cobbler, and a couple of other tricks mean some old glories still look new. And, with each season change its always a pleasure to rediscover some of these old friends. This summer I'll stick to all my flats while I strengthen my leg muscles and knee, but already I dream of getting reacquainted with my cone heels come winter. So better hit the swimming pool and start exercising straight away!
