Also, I have to add that the pair of shoes I own that get the most compliments are in fact from...Debenhams!

They're red patent with white piping and not only are they pretty but quite comfy too (well, for at least 3 hours anyway).

What's more, they were only £25!!!!  Bargain!

Ladies, I am going to confess why I'm in university. the reason is a simple five letter word called shoes. I rpomised myself that should I ever graduate I will reward my efforts with a pair of Christian Louboutins and because I recently discovered i have different sized feet, I am hoping to have a pair of bespoke Louboutins instead of a pair from his latest collection in two years time.

Ruby can I have the link to shoes addicts anonymous? I think I should go.

Also I proudly own a wardrobe full of shoes (70% are not with me in university) which is a shame.

lol shoe wardrobes are great. Nothing shows of a pair of shoes better than a shelf for them to sit on! Though I'm not sure if it's just me but i can spend ages cleaning my shoes! I'll go out one night then realise that I have beer and mud all over them (which breaks my little crystal heart) and I'd spend ages cleaning them. Am I alone on this?

Shoes, shoes, fabulous shoes! Great to find other ladies who are unable to resist a lucious pair of heels - no matter that they aren't really practicle (at all), are going to take you over your overdraft limit, probably aren't that comfy and are quite difficult to walk / totter about in - if your heart says yes (and mine usually does) buy em anyway I say  Very Happy

Oooh shoes! I love them possibly more than lingerie (and I adore lingerie) the right shoes make you feel amazing! They change your posture, whether they make you feel powerful and in control or delicate and girly, I love them!

I'm one of those girls who leaves the house swearing I'm not going to buy shoes, and manage to come home with one or two pairs. Which is quite an achievement for someone with size 3 feet!

My absolute favourite brands are Pleaser and Devious, total fetish shoes!
One day I plan to own these

..just as soon as I can justify spending that much money on a pair of shoes I will never, ever walk in!


You are quoting my life!!!  Laughing

Though as a lass with size 3 feet i have never had trouble finding gorgeous pairs!! Schuh, Kurt Geiger, Shelleys, Charity shops (yes really) and Selfridges sales! I think i stopped counting at 60 pairs  Embarassed  though we are talking 13 years of ardent purchasing...

I also intend to own a pair of ballet stillettos - i need to find them in size 3 - i have to have them, i have a burlesque act planned around them!

Very Happy

Oh good grief. I'm so happy I'm not the only shoe obsessed nutter. My boyfriend hates me for my shoe obsession.

I think a shoe obsession is hot! Of course... that's just me and my fondness of girls wearing sexy shoes while we're playing board games.

yeah.... board games. That's the ticket.  Twisted Evil

I tend to wear flats (leopard print pumps for work) but have a few too many killer heels that sit around looking pretty.
