Shoes-bags obsession

I used to believe that if you carried a lovely bag, or lovely shoes, you could get away with the rest of your outfit :D. But the leather on designer items are now so devine, that its almost like you need the gorgeous shoes to complement the divine bag, regular shoes just dont cut it ;)
So yes, thats my excuse and I am sticking to it!! Like you, I have acquired a fair few pairs, but, I always wear them, and they do make me happy :D, so its my justification.
 
pixie I was looking at a pair of gucci flats last week. I wanted them in the canvas, but they didn't have it in my size. However, I looked great in the white, but I didn't want to buy them because summer is almost over and I don't know how much wear I would give them after that.

I think that shoes just sorta follow handbags. You start thinking, 'What shoes should I wear with this'. Then you go crazy with it.
 
for me it was clothes first...I needed nice stuff when I finished school and left the college look behind. I only had a few nice pairs of pumps but a lot of suits, skirts, etc. Then I started getting into shoes more, then (now) it's bags!
 
It was all about bags for me before, but then designer bag prices skyrocketed. It's just a bit unreasonable for me to spend $1,000+ on an it bag, when I can buy designer shoes on sale for around $200.
