I could rant about this, but the article says it all.

Well I'm looking to Ebay a lot of my shoes from my non-MSE days so these girls will merely put money in my pocket - huzzah!

I wouldn't wear shoes at all if I could get away with it :rotfl:

Hi - I am a 41 year old female and have never understood the fasination with women and shoes!!

I have a pair of black sandals which I ALWAYS wear on a night out and have done so for the last 6 years!! I have one pair of trainers which I only wear when it's cold, a pair of boots for the winter and a pair of flippy floppy things for the nice weather!!

Manage okay with these and only buy a new pair when one runs out (which then get thrown in the bin!!)

Are 'most' women obsessed with shoes?...and/or handbags for that matter? I'm not, I am beginning to wonder if I'm a freak???

And I've never watched an episode of Sex in the City.

No, I'm the same, another female person who can't understand the "shoes" thing.

I never realised we were "supposed" to be obsessed with shoes until recent years. But that's how it seems - as if it's a requirement of being female to be obsessed with trivial or decorative things... hmmm... don't get me started...

Buying shoes is just a pain in the @$$ as far as I'm concerned. If I could get away with going around barefoot I would. (No disrespect to people in the world who HAVE to go barefoot and would prefer not to, of course.)

Poor girl, is all I can think!

Oh dear - each to their own I suppose - I just hope she can fund this shoe addiction or she will probably be visiting DFW soon!

Im sitting here in my dorothy perkins shoes that I brought over 3 years ago in the sale for £10!! and they still look as good as new!

80 pairs of shoes and she dares say "Do I really have a pair of shoes to go with this outfit?" :mad:

However I was pleasantly surprised to read she SAVED up enough to buy some shoes from that NYC place but then thought to herself she couldn't justify spending £400 on a pair and walked out without them. All is not lost then.
