My new shoe closet (Galligator).

Gosh, I hope you guys can see that last photo is a the credit card add with the lady who made her kitchen into extra closet storage

I put up an album at live.com & the link to that is in a post a few back.

I'm definitely still a shoe addict, but I'm slowing it down for 'gaps' and, of course, budget.

I've been up & down financially in the past, so right now I'm working on the 'everything else'.

I think I definitely got shoe-overboard when I replaced my pre-pregnancy shoe collection. (That was probably 25 or 30 pairs that got donated since I grew a whole size.)

I think closet threads are a favorite for all of us.

Here's a picture of Mariah Carey's shoe 'closet' from Instyle Mag. 'Closet' is the operative word here as it looks like the size of my apt!

"I have about 1,000 pairs of shoes. But lots are in storage," says the Grammy-winning singer. The glamour girl keeps her designer stilettos, wedges and boots uncluttered and artfully on display in her 12,000-square-foot Manhattan triplex. With the help of renowned N.Y.C. decorator Mario Buatta, Carey designed the gold-leaf and bleached-wood floor in the shoe closet. "Like Louis Vuitton luggage," she says, "it will only look better over time."

That is a pretty amazing closet. WOw how many total pairs are there?

[galligator]

I'm not exactly 'afraid' to count, but probably around 130? Enough that I don't put excessive wear on most pairs.
