Latest additions to my (shoe) family . . .

This fall it's strictly a YSL thang for me. I showed ya'll this one in the shoe poll thread a few months ago but I finally broke down and bought these joints. They arrive some time this week and i'll try to post pics wearing them, makes a HUGE difference IMO.

I also got these today. Loving the YSL Tribute sandal. I think I'ma start collecting these in different colors. For now I'm starting with Mauve and Nude. I haven't seen the Mauve in person so I'm taking a big chance but the Nude is beautiful on. love

falloff I promise I don't have that many. For real! Scout's honor. I gave some away so I think I'm around 70 pairs. But even before then I wasn't over 80. One my homegirls has worked at 9West PT for 10 years and she has literally over 500 pairs. Her hubby threw away a bunch in the garage a few weeks ago. disbelief

You think 70 is alot until you hear 500. You think 500 is alot until you 2,500 (Im. Marcos).

If you thin them out as you bring new shoes in, then just buy what you love. If you start to find that you can't cope with the thought of parting with a single pair, start worrying.

I'm firmly planted in denial

highfive I don't buy shoes just because. I've got my basics covered and now I only buy unique colors or finishes. I refuse to have 30 pairs of black shoes or some shit. disbelief

A friend's mom had shoes in the closet and when she opened the box, it was disintegrated.

Now that's a problem.

cool I am so glad you got that blue pair... my vote is on the raspberry pair also. Hot color!

I am not in the market for any new shoes/boots right now. I've been keeping it real practical. Basic ballerina flats and rain boots were my latest purchase, yawn boring!

Skin tone can make or break this color for me. Is that a slight pinkish hue on that "cream" or is it just me?

Good point. I think it'd also depend on the outfit. A neutral should blend in, not become the focus.

I see the pinkish tone, too...

I hope that mauve turns out as pretty as it looks. But that nude color was killa on me. It's actually a light gold. Really flattering on my dark skin. Like you said skin tone makes a HUGE difference with how shoes look on me. Those blue ones are really vivid and contrast well with my skin color too. love

hmmm OK, now you just threw me a curve ball, if the nude looks great against your skin then you should go for those.

Anyways, you could wear so much more with them... but that mauve is killing me! You gotta see those against your skin!

I'm slowing down on the shoes as I'm buying way too much shit lately.

So instead, I took a pair of velvet shoes I bought a few weeks ago and gave them a face lift. I was bored one night. Anyway, I like the way they turned out...much more glittery in person.

The black ones look comfortable.
