Have You Bought Any New Shoes Lately?

I bought two pairs yesterday and they were really cheap, around $15 for two pairs! The main reason I bought new ones because my one and only pair of work shoes was ruined during the heavy rain and I needed new ones for work (but I didn't want to spend too much). And for the other pair which I usually put on when I go out, it's getting old and starts falling apart, therefore, I forced myself to buy some new shoes. Hopefully they are very comfortable for me!

$15 for two pairs? that's really cheap! you got a really good deal there.
i've recently bought a pair of shoes too, office shoes that is. i only have 3 older pairs that i am using and i'm kinda getting tired of them so i decided to buy a new one to add variety. so far its performing well.

Yea, and can you believe they are actually really comfy too? I am all happy now because I was in a stage where I got almost nothing to put on anymore.

I bought a pair of shoes the other week. it's a stilleto, as long as I still have shoes or something to wear, I don't buy. hehehe.. Anyway, I had to buy because my mother asked me to get one, not that she's hopeless for my shoes but as one of their gifts on my college graduation, she gave me bucks for that. Ahahaha
It's about $32 and it's really nice. I like the skin of the shoes. hehehe.. It took me few hours before I finally bought one. I'm actually not a good shopper that's one reason I sort of don't buy much because I end up with something I won't like when I get home. hehehe..

WOW, it must be great to receive shoes as presents and especially you get to pick those you like! I am sure they look good on you!

$15 for 2 pair is a great bargain!
I just bought a new pair of walking shoes since I will be going on vacation next week and really needed a new pair. They were $60, so not such a great deal.
I love shoe shopping though. I can go wild on shoes. If I had unlimited funds, I would be buying shoes all the time.

Yes I know your feelings! Well, the only thing I am not happy about shopping for shoes is that sometimes I find them not really comfortable! Otherwise, it's definitely fun shopping for shoes.

That's so nice for you. I haven't bought any new shoes lately because I don't have many free time to go shopping for myself. Besides, I have a cold lately and I don't feel very well. I think I need to buy new shoes as the new season is coming

Oh, hope you will recover soon so that you could go shoe shopping very soon!

That is a good price! Fortunately I don't have to wear "work" type shoes anymore, so sandals will do for just about everywhere we go. Wahoo. Freedom for the feet! Congratulations on your find, though. I remember one pair of shoes that I loved and wore completely out many years ago. There were made in Italy and I've never found another pair as nice. I love Italian and Brazilian shoes for dress. For everyday I prefer the US company Columbia's river sandals. They have a very nice grip on a wet pavement and also insulate one's feet from the hot concrete. Here that is necessary because you could fry a steak on the sidewalk here in the summer time, I think.

When I am on holidays and during summer, I love my flip-flops! Of course that's only when I don't have to work! I am happy to find something cheap and comfortable at the same time, and also, if they are ruined during heavy rain or something, I wouldn't feel that my purse got hurt again!

Well, just spend an afternoon trying the shoes on and walk around in the stores. The most important for picking high heels would be that you can actually walk in it!

I'm a real shoe nut and look at them all the time. But I have so many pairs right now that it would be silly for me to buy any. So I'm trying real hard to be good.

I know how it feels to suppress the urge! I am a hand-bag nut, I got so many that I have forgotten what I have and some of my friends would have to remind me! Ah!

Hello wondericequeen,
I bought a pair of new shoes two months ago. I wanted to buy for quite some times but my husband always reminds me that I still have many pair of shoes to wear. Until one day, while shopping with him, he popped up a question whether I really need to buy a new pair. He is going to pay for it and that was why I agreed to buy a new one...

Yes it's very cheap and surprising it's very soft and therefore quite comfortable for me. I did spend a lot more on shoes before but those turned out to be not really comfortable, therefore, I don't really bother anymore. Most important for me would be being able to walk fast to work!
