    I have a serious shoe fetish - DH made me throw out ....25 pairs when we moved....

    I have stilettos that would make a stripper fear for her ankles - but I can run in them ...LOL
    My 2 fave pairs are : candy apple red patent leather stilettos with a zip along the side and silver stilettos for going out to clubs (like thats gonna happen again anytime soon .... )

    Jus have nowhere to wear them now so live in flats

    Oh, I hear you on that one, LaDeeDa!! Dh is always complaining about me buying shoes that I'll never wear anywhere because they're so out-there

    I just got three new pairs - lipstick-red patent Mary Janes with black ribbon detail, purple slouchy leather peep-toes (kind of gladiator/bootie-style), and my favourites - pink and black mock snakeskin platform stilettos!!
    Hardly any of my heels are under 5 inches, I love big chunky monstrosities because I have skinny legs and am heavier from the hips up, so big shoes balance me out a bit.

    I do have one pair of suede mary-jane style ballet flats that I wear just about everywhere because they're so cute and school-girlish One of my rare IRL purchases, usually I buy online.

    Lol DoubleK!! My mum keeps pestering me to join the pilates class she's been attending, but I don't even own a pair of trainers! I'd feel funny rolling up in workout gear and thongs or ballet flats hehee

    I love boots & ballet flats

    I love heels but I dont wear them, feels like my toes are breaking in closed toe heels. Any suggestions on how to stop that? coz I would love to wear them

    Oooh i have a shoe fetish, i can't count how many pairs i have, but generally these are the brands i buy:

    Heels - Chanel - i usually buy second hand on ebay as full price is a little out of reach

    Trainers - Miss Sixty - again ebay (very comfy and funky)

    Thongs - Havainias - usually from surf shops, they last forever.

    Boots - Miss Sixty - again ebay or sometimes select boutiques, very good quality.

    Then depending on the season or current style i wear wedges, canvas flats, sandals, ballet flats and other miscellaneous styles.

    Shall we post pics of some of our favourite shoes?

    I'm a flats kinda girl. I loveeeeeee thongs, and ballet flats. I do really like my Etnies too. They're really comfy and have lasted for ages.

    Matryoshka - Havainias are my faves too. So comfy!!

    I wish I was a heels person sometimes. I'd like a bit of extra height especially compared to my DP.

    I know sometimes people balk at the price of havainias but i've had pairs that are over 5 years old and still going strong, whereas cheaper pairs often have to throw out after one summer.
