in my wardrobe: favourite shoes







GLASSONS cutout wedges and brown heeled boots; THE WAREHOUSE lace up boots, black heels of death, and moto boots; FACTORIE leopard flats


I'll admit it, I have an incurable obsession with shoes. One thing that didn't come with me when I moved to New Zealand was my shoe collection, well over 100 (give or take) pairs of pure awesomeness. I remember I bought a pair of wedge ankle boots to die for a month or so prior to leaving and have BEGGED to have them posted to me, but no one can seem to find them or my sister stole them and doesn't want to give them up. I would seriously give my left arm for those boots. I have yet to find a pair in the Chur to replace them. Gutted.

Instead, I have slowly started building up an impressive collection here. I have heaps upon heaps of shoes, probably pushing 50 pairs at least. Most of them I don't wear, as I always go for my favourites. I live in boots, year round, except for those days where it is far too hot to wear anything on your feet or if I'm at the beach.

The motorcycle boots from The Warehouse are my absolute favourites. I've had them for over 2 years and have worn them to death, as you can clearly see in the picture. The Glassons brown boots are a new purchase, featured a couple of posts ago, but I've worn them so much since I bought them. I'll throw them on to go to the dairy, that's how much I love them.

The heels are one of my favourites buys, cheap ($15!!!) and awesome. They are killer. Wore them to a friend's 21st, which started with drinks/cake at hers then ended at a gay bar in town at nearly 4am. I was in those shoes for 9 hours straight, feet were dead for days. Don't think I've worn them since, I blame the cold weather!

Need to start wearing the wedges more, but with the temps so low and my toes always could I always bypass them for boots. Maybe when spring rolls around they will get more wear.
