I have a favorite pair of shoes. I’ll admit it… I know that putting one over the rest will make the others feel bad. But I don’t wear them often. They’re kind of difficult to work with.
Those are my Betsey Jonson “Raychel” heels. And I LOVE them!!! I got them at the Betsey Johnson outlet for like 100 dollars. Best buy ever. But I don’t which season they’re from.
I like different, crazy shoes. Shoes that make an outfit “the” outfit… Shoes that make everyone at the mall or a party turn around and look at them over and over… Shoes that make people think “damn, how can she pull them off?”
I believe that unusual, peculiar shoes should be a part of everyone’s closet.
Do you have any shoes that you just love over the rest? And if you could have any pair of shoes, what would they be like?

Those are some wild shoes.
My shoe wardrobe is fairy standard, I suppose. I have a pair of black boots, a pair of running shoes, Converse low tops, red stilettos, black pumps, a couple of pairs of flats and a pair of black sandals. I like shoes that can go with any and every outfit. Also, my shoes have to be comfortable and supportive since I have terrible knees and usually am standing for hours on end.

oh wow, i love ur shoes. their totally cute. and i do the same, i have like 5 pair that i like the best. and their all my heels/ boots, being only 5 foot tall, i have a great affection for shoes that give me some height. i also have this one pair that looks like its from the 80′s, given their design and height.

guest
this reminds me of how my friends and I tried to count the number of shoes we have, my guy friends stopped at 3. I gave up counting
guest
all i wear are vans.. haha. but i do have a pair of crazy shoes. they’re orange high tops and there’s purple “paint” dripping from the top.. i don’t wear them so much anymore cause of the weather but they definitely make people look twice.
but man if i had some louboutins.. i would wear them to death.

I always play favourites with my shoes.
I do that with most things actually. Especially when they are new.

guest
Oh my gosh I love those shoes >_<
guest
I have a lot of favorite shoes. I can’t pick just one. they are so beautiful and precious that I don’t want to wear them outside because I don’t want to scratch the soles as if they are limited edition. they are for display and to try on at home
some people collect action figures or sports cards or whatever. I collect shoes

I have a pair of knee-high silver gladiator sandal boots, brown fringe and gold studded ankle boots, and a pair of black cow-hide moccasins with a peace near the heel that I just love. I have never seen anyone else with those three pairs of shoes.

@fuzzi_mushroom@xanga - wow, um, rude much?

I love my shoes equally, like a good shoe mother should. *looks away
guest
I play favorites. I tend to wear my boots and flats over my sneakers now… But during the summer, I always wear flip-flops.. And wedges. lol. I can’t help it.
guest
love betsey johnson! i would never wear those though– not my style.
guest
My favorite pair of shoes are a pair of knee-high, platform, 9 buckle boots. I wanted them forever. I’ve had them for a little over a year.
They could be replaced by a pair of Burberry Prorsum platform biker boots. Once those babies are in my closet I will probably never replace them as favorites.
guest
my sneakers XD
guest
i play favorites only with shoes for special occasion aka my heels but my everyday shoes i switch em up mostly cuz they are converse or high tops. When a special occasion comes up i almost always put on my 5 in black pumps with red heels they get a lot of attention and make my legs look killer, i got em for 6 bucks at forever 21 by the end of the night they look crazy because they have been stepped on and had drinks spilled on them and my toes are numb but they are my go to heel
guest
wow they sure look interesting lol
guest
I wear my Rainbows (black thin straps) all the time. I’m looking to buy some yellow rain boots though! Even though it only rains 10 days a year in LA. ahahaha
guest
they’re, different….
guest
@not3000@xanga You must have such confidence to pull those off! I love your attitude, and totally agree
guest
I’ve got a pair of riding boots i try to wear wherever I go. The other shoes in my closet must be feeling jealous!
guest
If I saw you wearing those shoes, yes, I would look over at them. But I wouldn’t be thinking “”damn, how can she pull them off?”. I would be thinking “Those are the most ugly things I’ve ever seen. And she probably thinks they look amazing on her”.
guest
I have sooo many shoes…but only wear certain pairs
guest
Same
BTW Speaking of Betsy Johnson, I went in there for the first time with my friends yesterday and I think I fell in LOVE. Everything in there was so adorable! And the employees were super nice and they let us try on a gazillion dresses and all, since we were waiting to get into Serendipity. If only I have the money for those clothes :\
guest
I have over 20 pairs of shoes (I know! I know! I fail at life…) but the only ones I wear on a regular basis are my combat boots. Love them <3
guest
my open-toe?

@pattylovescupcakes@xanga - so would I!
@fuzzi_mushroom@xanga - ouch! how rude of you!
@XnoXsunlightX@xanga - I’m pretty sure you could pull them off, too! they are amazingly comfortable!!!
@actualization@xanga - 1, it’s “ugliest”, not “most ugly” … 2, I respect your opinion… but just because they’re not your style it doesn’t mean that they do not look good on me (because they actually do)
guest
@not3000@xanga - 1. “Most ugly” is just as grammatically correct as “ugliest,” but feel free to choose your own insult. 2. I do admire that you have an adventurous sense of style, and you obviously have fun with it. Enjoy!

@actualization@xanga - ah well .. I suppose at school they only taught us what is supposed to be the “correct” form (spanish is my native language) … I guess I learned something new (:

Those are HOT. I dunno if I like the velour straps, but the shape of the whole shoe is to die for and the design on the wedge is pretty sweet too.
I can’t say no to pair of funky shoes. Even if I have a pair (or ten) that are similar, the subtle quirky differences make them a closet must have. I go through phases of favorite shoes. I have a pair of totally beat to death 4 in. high heeled sandals that I could wear every day, but they need some repair. Then there’s the black Mary Janes with purple flowers embroidered all over them… A few months ago I got some fuzzy snow boots and couldn’t get enough of them, I wore them with everything. Last fall I was all about these knee high, buckled, black leather boots with a wood heel…so many shoes so little time!
