too many shoes?
April 9th, 2007no - not enough outfits!! you see, it’s all to do with the way that you approach the subject!
so, i went to see a flat that i was considering buying and as we entered the second bedroom, the estate agent turned to me and said “this would make a lovely study” to which i responded “or shoe cupboard”. she laughed and said that i was very funny, but to this day, i’m still not sure what was so amusing?!?
i decided that with the view that i’ll probably be downsizing, i should clear out some of my beloved shoes. therefore they were split into 3 clear piles, 1. charity shop, 2. ebay, 3. keep forever! they say a picture speaks a thousand words, hmmmn….. how many do you think these would equate to?



then i heard a sniffle from another wardrobe and realised that i had forgotten my favorites - the pink and red section…
i think it’s fair to say that ebay and the charity shop still came out quite well from all of this…
the problem is that you guarantee, the moment i throw away a pair of the gorgeous shoes, i’m going to wear an outfit with which they would have gone perfectly…. not so sure i’m any good at this “clearing out your life” thing… oh well we can but try!
i do have one confession to make though - i’ve kept probably the crumiest, oldest, most decrepid boots in the world! i can’t help it - i love them…. and you never know, one day i may wake up to find that the boot fairy has fixed them! until that day, i’ll sit here and look back with fond memories of their hay day
gotta love route 66! if any one has these boots brand new, please let me know and i’ll donate my left arm in return.
