This is my first collections thread. So after a year of buying/selling/returning, I have ended up with these beauties. My collection is small and modest compared to some of you ladies. I hope you enjoy as much as I enjoy wearing them!

Some of my shoes have either been "lost" or "borrowed" by my either my sister and/or my BFF. I may post them later when they are returned or found.

Anyway, here is a group shot

Family shots:

Very Prive: (left to right) Fuxia Suede Fontanete (from Javaboo!, I got these because my BFF owns a pair also, but in Kid leather), Burgundy Glittart Very Prive, Nude Patent Very Prive, and Beige Satin Ambrosina (these were purchased to be given as a gift to my BFF if/when she gets married...LOL, so for now they are safe in my closet)

No Prive: Haute Serrure, Tiger No Prive, Red Greasepaint No Prive, White Patent Privatita (I made shorted the anklestraps), and Fuxia Very Noeud

more_CHOOS · Jun 15th, 2009, 03:52 PM

Simple: Grape Patent Simple, Black Greasepaint Simple, Electric Blue Python Simple, Fuxia Suede New Simple, and Black Kid New Simple (they were originally Bronze New Simple but I had them dyed). Also not pictured are my Purple and Beige Greasepaint Simple.

Not a family shot, just a bunch of friends

Python Lady Noeud, Libelle, Beige Patent Yoyo, Black Patent Madame Claude, Burgundy Patent Ernesta, and Silver Transparente Wedges (not pictured are my Croc Iowa Zeppa and my Beige Satin Medina, my sister borrowed them)

some more miscellaneous

Leopard pony hair Dickensera (Thanks Laureen for the great eBay find!), Lady Grants (navy/red combo and black/grey combo), Ice Pink satin Helmut, Mesh Pigalle Elba, Pink Viva Lolo, and Laponos in Luggage. Not pictured are my Burgandy Glittart Decolette and Black Suede Rolando (my BFF borrowed those!)

and last but not least, my FIRST LOVE

Black Suede/Patent Mad Mary

I can't take pics of each individually as that is alot of work...kudos to those who did it....I only took a few pics and I'm pooped!

great collection, congrats!

laureenthemean · Jun 15th, 2009, 03:55 PM

Your collection is gorgeous! I especially love the EB python Simples and MM! The leopard ones are the Dickensera, and those are one of my favorites as well!

Blueberry12 · Jun 15th, 2009, 03:57 PM

Stunning shoes!

more_CHOOS · Jun 15th, 2009, 03:59 PM

Anyway, DH just came home from work (un-announced!) and I had my shoes laying all over the place! I only told him about 5 pairs, so you should have seen the look on his face when he saw how many there really were

...I am in so much trouble right now...I guess there will be some making up to do tonight!

more_CHOOS · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:03 PM

Thanks justkell, laureen, blueberry12!

Laureen: Thanks so much for helping me authenticate my first pair ever on eBay and thanks for helping me find some great eBay finds!

laureenthemean · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:05 PM

Aw, you're welcome! Uh oh, hope you can make the DH...understand?

Haha, it's like you were cheating on him and then he came home from work early and caught you!

more_CHOOS · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:09 PM

^ LOL that's exactly how i felt! I jumped off the couch and grab all the shoes I could and stuffed them in the closet. He walked straight to the closet and opened up and there comes the shoes tumbling out...

LavenderIce · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:12 PM

Wonderful collection! You are too generous to lend out your shoes to your BFF and sister. Thank goodness no one close to me is my size. I would be so stingy with my CLs. I'll be like, "go and borrow the Payless ones, the ones in the brown boxes are OFF LIMITS."

klng · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:16 PM

gorgeous collection! My bf would do the same thing if he realized how many CLs I have (just four, but that's a lot for middle class folks). He thinks one pair is already insanely excessive!

rdgldy · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:16 PM

I love them all-the pale pink helmuts are so beautiful!! I like the variety of your collection!

Miss_Q · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:27 PM

You have a great collection! I wouldn't call it small or modest.

cllover · Jun 15th, 2009, 04:54 PM

Awesome collection - Love the Mads! I'm sure DH will forgive you once he sees some of them on you - perhaps the pigalles!

japskivt · Jun 15th, 2009, 05:45 PM

Great collection! It is by no means small!
