So tonight I had a sudden urge to tidy my room, weird, I know!
I realised that I had 2 basically empty large shelves at the top of my one wardrobe, that could hold my boxed boots and shoes, so I climbed on to my bed (the only way of reaching said shelves!) and dusted the shelves, finding and removing a Playboy shoe box (cringe, flip flops though!), an empty boot box, a giant 18th birthday card from my parents (aww! I feel so much older now!!) and...MY YEAR 11 SCHOOL PHOTO!!!
Horrendous.
I actually hate those 2 photos. Even now, 9/10 years later.
See, the thing is, I had an incident with a razor and my eyebrows when I was around 15...
Anyway, whilst moving boot and shoe boxes, I found some shoes that I completely forgot I owned (shock, horror!), along with some, erm...interesting boots!
Pole shoes (I used to do pole fitness classes and had my own pole in my bedroom!), mirrored shoes and my beloved PPQ shoes :-)
- I can't believe I forgot about my PPQ's!!!
Then I found these questionable boots...
Yeah, I went to a dark place once! I was young and in to hip hop LOL.
J-Lo started this trend, I remember. One pair are called 'Jen' and the other 'Jay'!
Never wore the left pair, wore the brown ones once, maybe twice!

I can't see myself ever wearing either again, I may try selling them...
I bet there's some fashionista out there who would style these out in a great way.
I still have much more sorting and tidying to do, my collection is large.
I counted my shoe collection a few years ago and there were 118, or 125...
and I've got a lot more since then (and not parted ways with any!).
Yes, I am a shoe hoarder.
The photos below were from last year, when I made another attempt at sorting my shoes.
Just some of the collection back in 2011. |
My dad makes me laugh...he walked in my room earlier, to
see how the tidying was going and said 'oh, space...you can buy more
shoes now...oh, wait...these are new, oh look new pumps too *picks them
up* unworn too, more bloody shoes!'.
Yes dad, I got isshoes, ok?
He has no idea about the new, unworn shoes hidden under my bed and in boxes.
More to come on my shoe collection soon. I plan to do a post at some point!
One day, I'd love to get every pair of shoes and boots out and do one massive collection photo...but I don't think that would be possible/easy to do.
Anyone else have a shoe obsession/isshoes/shoe hoarding problems???

That really is a lot of shoes! I don't think I have more than 30 pairs in total!x
ReplyDeleteYup...I'm running out of space now, need my own place! 30 is still a lot! My male friends are always shocked but then most guys don't own more than 2 pairs :-p I do have one male friend who has like 50+ pairs though!
