Ode to Shoes

I love days when the toughest decision regards shoes. For example...

1) Which store?
2) Do I buy the fabulously sexy bronze stilettos, even though I'm here for strappy silver shoes for the wedding?
3) Ooh... found wonderful silver shoes... now do I also get the stilettos?
4) Hmm. Where will I put said shoes?

I love shoes. What woman doesn't? Once upon a time, I vowed to throw out a pair of shoes when purchased a new pair of shoes, that way the quantity would not rise. Upon bringing home these two pairs, however (yes, I did buy the sexy stilettos... and I'm wearing them tomorrow at my high school reunion gathering in the afternoon!), I realized that I need every pair I have. Thefore, I will just have to get a second shoe rack to accomodate the new shoes. Ooh. I can throw away two pairs of really old flip-flops. Does that count? :)

Either that or start placing them on a bookshelf. I've become smarter as I approach my thirties in that I now save the shoe boxes to protect the nicer shoes. But those boxes are so cumbersome.

And since I'm slowly turning around my wardrobe (in the Battle Against Frumpiness), I deem these new shoes necessary. Plus the silver ones can be used in many other situations as well.

Everyone's a winner!
