I want about a billion shoes. I think I have 12 wearable pairs (three pairs of sneakers, one pair of boots, two pairs of stilettos, two pairs of low-heeled pumps in black and brown, one pair of chunky black heels, and two pairs of spring/summer wedges), two pairs that need to be reheeled and resoled, and a half dozen more pairs that need to be either reheeled or thrown out; they're not really good quality enough to be worth rehabbing, but I feel bad just tossing mostly wearable and only partly broken stuff.
If we had a big huge house I'd totally have a shoe room. Or possibly a shoe annex off the vintage dress room.
CLEAN ALL THE THINGS apron.
Also, I clearly need to visit Cole Valley stat!
People, if it doesn't fit, has stains, or if you are not going to wear or fix it/them, get rid of it/them!
I just did that with t-shirts! got about 10 of them in a bag to go. See I do get rid of stuff, just still have too much.
Can I admit that I don't get the Clean All the Things references? What's up with that?

I have been! But I still have BOXES of tuff that I am going to fix/modify.
I am missing the shoe gene. Perhaps it's like the ability to roll your tongue (which I can do).
Connie is me. I feel like I'm deficient somehow because I really don't like shoes.
I have short (5.5), super-wide feet, higher than average arches. Very much like Alley Oop.
I have never really enjoyed, nor felt comfortable, in shoes. When I DO find styles that I like, if I don't buy multiple pairs, I regret it.
An old bf used to chide me for this, so one night, I went all shoe crazy and bought 3 entire new pairs at once. (none of them sneakers) I came in, flush with my victory, to show them off.
Without a word, he walked into the other room and came out with a pair of black clogs, a pair of black granny boots and a pair of black flats that were so similar to what I already had in my closet...not the same brands but the exact same cuts...as to be identical.
He just sighed,"Hopeless," and walked away.

I was pretty good today. With Sara's stuff, I got rid of anything really summery except for a few things for the next few weeks, and only saved other stuff that's nice enough to hand down.
Also, she has way too many clothes. But it's so much easier to buy for her than for me. Also cheaper.
