Why do women buy so many shoes?
Have you ever wondered as a woman why do we have and buy so many shoes ? We know that we already have plenty of shoes that are hardly worn and yet we still go shoe shopping.
Most of the time, women, not all of course, shop with their emotions. They buy shoes when they are feeling down or happy. And they shop for shoes because you can never go wrong with shoes – it will always fit! Our feet does’t change size.
That’s not the same with clothes – if you gain some weight you won’t be able to wear it anymore so that’s not very practical. LOL !
Do you know Imelda Marcos? Of course you do, if not where have you been ? I found it funny when I saw a documentary of her where she said:
They went into my closets looking for skeletons, but thank God, all they found were shoes, beautiful shoes,” a smiling Mrs Marcos said, wearing a pair of locally made silver shoes for the day.
I may have a little Imelda in me although I am more of a shoe bargain hunter. I won’t pay hundreds of dollars for a pair of shoes nor buy shoes that I know I won’t be able to wear. Well maybe, I can wear this Peeptoe Bloomingdale Shoe in one of my dreams where I am an exotic dancer or something bwahahah!!
What about you, what’s your view on women having lots of shoes? Do you also have a little Imelda in you? Don’t be shy to admit it girl…..

I love buying shoes too! What a shame in Singapore we don’t have a room just to put my shoes! Personally I am ok with women having lots of shoes. It’s essential, don’t you think?

I actually hate buying shoes. Very narrow feet make it difficult to find great deals or anything that fits.

You tell me Jade! Shoes??? omg! that’s my weakness. I calmed down when my son arrived but then I resumed buying shoes, not for me but for him – at 11 months he has shoes lined up to last him til he’s 7. Completely mental, I know so I resisted the urge and was successful til last Sunday when I had to attend a co-teacher’s wedding and then I just have to have shoes that will match the strap of my purse (how silly could a girl be huh!). I swear I’m gonna put an end to this mania soon.
