    Well I just got rid of 10 pairs that haven't seen the light of day for at least 2 years....and in April I culled half of my beautiful shoe collection as we were moving interstate....I had lots. I love shoes....I had a whole wall in my walk in just for them, sigh.

    Now I have left myself with the practical obvious needed ones (sandals, sneakers, thongs), a few for different mood changes, Two pairs of high heel boots that I've had for years and are beautiful, one pair of flat boots, and a pair of hot pink snake skin Midas Wedges...never been worn out but cost too much and too pretty to give to charity lol.

    On the other hand I don't do handbags and only own 3 or 4.

    Umm I have sandal type things, my docs, my converse and a pair of thongs. I did have a pair of sneakers but they were sooo uncomfortable, so if I ever get to the gym I just wear my converse.

    Okay, I feel really bad now that everyone's posted what they have. But I honestly couldn't survive on 5 pairs! I gotta coordinate with what I wear! I have lots of sandals, black ones, silver, red, brown. A couple of heels and lots of flats in various shades and styles!

    PLEASE some other shoe aholic come in and post to make me feel better!

    I love my jeans too - but sometimes I like to wear the cute shiny ballet flats with the buckle, or sometimes the brown patent croc skin look ones, or the black with a bow or .........choices, I like choices!



    Oh, and I actually don't own any thongs! I don't really like thongs lol.

    I probably have about 10 pair, but 2 of them are old wedding shoes that really need to be ditched, and another pair are a pair of white flats that I'd never be seen dead in again

    So 7, my sneakers, my back up sneakers for when these ones fall apart, my ugg boots, my going out shoes, my steel cap boots, and my flat open toed sandals, and my heels.

    Hi, my name is Kristy and i have a shoe addiction. Pity i cant wear anything other than thongs and slippers atm while i have 40+ weeks pregnant feet

    I even keep my shoes in their pink lily clear boxes and stacked according to heel height.

    i have 3 pairs that i wear religously, my gallaz whitch are in need of retiring might bring my self to do it next month. my havanas love them and need a new pair, there a little in the thin side and my hoodies for feet.
    ive got a pair of mini heels for special occasions or im wearing a dress(very rare!)
    i also have 5 rediculously high ones that i will most likely never wear, the other half refers to them as my "stripper shoes" as they are so high you almost need a stilt walker degree to walk in! i know i will never wear them but there just so prety!! and it is because of those shoes i have been told, no more shes unless i need them, so new joggers and thongs will def be allowed!!!!
    so all up about 9, altho 6 just sit there looking good!

    I had alot of shoes before I moved house, I mean alot! but I donated, gave away, threw away all but 1 pair of heels, 1 pair of thongs, 1 pair of flats and 1 pair of sneakers. I have since added a pair of boots and a new pair of flats but I did throw out my old flats... so to answer your question, I now have 5 pairs of shoes.

    Hrm. Black boots, brown boots, walking shoes, silly sandals, gardening shoes x 2, black slip-ons, plus fuzzy brown uggs for winter inside. That's 8 ... do gardening shoes even count? Mine look awful and are covered in mud, paint etc.

    My partner has at least a dozen pairs of boots alone, but considerably more once you add in gardening shoes and walking shoes.

    I personally have 10 all up. That includes 1 pair everyday/workshoes, 1 pair trainers, 3 pairs heels (this includes one pair of "never-to-be-worn-but-super-pretty-stripper-ones", haha, yes, I have those too!), 3 pairs ballet flats, 1 pair of slippers and 1 pair of thongs. That's it.

    lol ummm

    I have around 100ish, collected over the last 15 years and I also look after them pretty well, don't wear them around the house and they go back in their spot as soon as I come home. I have pairs that are 10 years old and look brand new.

    DH use to complain about how many I have but then I worked out what he would have spent on smoking/alcohol/clubbing/his muscle car and it's very even. I've never smoked, hardly drink, etc so I think it's fair

    I've also only paid retail for less than 10% of them, always wait for them to go on sale but some I didn't want to run the risk of missing out lol
