Like many women, I've always liked shoes, but after my feet grew during my 1st pregnancy, I had to replace all of my too-small shoes. Online shoe retailers had really started to establish a presence by that time, & I was able to see so many unique & gorgeous styles, I was hooked in a whole new obsessive way.

And, in my case, my personal 'obsession' led me to be one of the bloggers on the main shoeblog site as well as to merge my shoe interest with my sewing/fashion interest. Of course, the online accessiblity of fashion shows on sites like elle , style & vogue certainly doesn't hurt, either.
