I'm with ya Tanya! I do that SAME thing, guilty as charged! If it's really cold I'll wear a long sleeved shirt, cute sweater, jeans, gloves, flip-flops, and my beanie...my philosophy tends to be that if we lose most of our body heat through our head and feet I might as well have ONE of the bases covered, because it would have to be a record low to get me out of my flip-flops!!

If I HAVE to wear shoes, flip-flops.
I have to wear a covered shoe at work,(like tennies)but will take them off if I know I will be in my area for awhile, & will just work in my socks! I hate covered shoes-I feel like my feet are burning up in the summertime.

Under the cats, mostly.
I think I have more shoes than I know what to do with
I had to get rid of most of my shoes when I moved, but I'm failry sure that that little collection can be replaced relaively quickly! I've been living either in my flilp-flops or my high-heeled ankle strap sandals this summer.... depends on where we're going or what kind of mood I'm in. I put the sandals on when I need a "tall moment" as I call it

Here in Vancouver everyone does the same thing, except with Teva sandals. Winter jackets, shorts and Teva sandals with socks!!

But back to me


I wear nothing but flip flops in the summer and whenever I can.
I have a pair of Diesel runners for rainy days that I wear with bare feet.
I usually wear Uggs in the winter or whenever I can.

I never ever ever wear high heels, although I love them!

If I could wear flip flops all year or go with bare feet I would be happy....

I usually wear sandals, even in the winter (no socks, just cold feetsies
). If I have to get dressed up I like pointy-toed high heels, but only with a kitten heel because I can't walk in tall ones.


When I work out I wear some pink & white Nike Shox I made at nikeid.

Sandals. Year round -- barefoot in summer, with socks in winter. Eccos or Naots, mostly. Though I have a pair of red slip on ones that are fun. I also have black clogs and brown loafer-type slipons which go into service in the winter if sandals just WON'T cut it.

Sandals or running shoes mostly. I just bought myself a pair of funky red Crocs (clogs) which I have been wearing quite a bit lately, they are really comfy!

You name it, I've got it. Saucony running shoes, cheap flip-flops, high heels, clogs, boots. Just call me Imelda Marcos

Then can I be Imelda Marcos, Jr?


I have a wide collection, too, but if I could only wear one type of shoe the rest of my life, it'd be Reefs flip-flops

Summertime it's flip-flops because my feet sweat so much! Besides I get the cheap ones at walmart with thick foam soles that conform to my feet and support my high arch. If shoes are needed, I have a couple of pair of basic black SAS oxfords with the low wedge. I also have a couple of pair of white sneakers (from K-Mart) and a pair of hiking boots I bought in 1992 to wear in case of snow. Oh, almost forgot - for dressier events I do have a pair of black slip ons from PayLess. That's it for my shoe wardrobe. No Imelda here!

Can't wear high heels anymore.

I hate feet, have a real dislike for them, mine and especially anyone elses. I can't stand seeing bare feet in the summer
My feet only see the light of day when I'm in the shower or REALLY hot in bed. I know, odd aren't I


However, I don't have a problem with feet all securely wrapped up in socks. I like wandering around in socked feet, all nice and comfy and warm. As for footwear, Shem has the right idea.

I'm sorry i hate converse
i used to like them when i was 10 though!

im more of a high heel person i have about 30 shoes but left most of them at my parents.. I have 6 here with me, i have to say i love my italian sandals, but now its too cold to wear them, and i usually wear my addidas sneakers.
I love boots especially the ones with very high heels, too bad that they dont normally zip up so i have to buy the ones that go upto the ankles

I thought I was Imelda Marcos. I'm addicted to going to DSW and buying multiple pairs of shoes at once!! But flip flops (I have ones with heels!!) and my ugly but comfy Birkenstocks!!

My favorite brand is Aerosoles...they look nice and are comfy, too. I have a bunch of pairs of them in everything from dressy heels to casual flats.

I don't wear running shoes very often...only if I'm working out or going somewhere where I'll be walking all day. I love sandals, but no more for me this summer...some guy ran over my foot with his suitcase in the airport on Sunday and took off about half of my big toenail.
