My Gosh,

I raced to the keyboard to correct this idea, but 2kitties has
it covered. Heavens Pops, please never say such a thing aloud again. LOL. One never knows about shoes.

Oooh, we're on to something! I didn't even think of wearing a dark blue to match his baby blue tux! I'm back on a hunt again! lol.

[2kitties]

Tonya, whatever you choose to wear, I'm sure this is just going to be a blast. It sounds like so much fun!

They are both beautiful gowns Tonya, but I prefer the black halter dress, it just has more elegance and class in MO, whatever you choose I am sure you will look stunning.

LOL! A few pairs of shoes are necessary, but not more than that. Those are just *extras*, that aren't *needed*.
Shoes that are necessary are.............

at least 1 pair of walking/running shoes.
Several dress shoes/sandals of different colors.
A pair of casual slippers.

That's it..........nothing else is *necessary*. Ok, I counted.........I have one pair of walking/running shoes, and need to get a new one.........2 pairs of formal sandals, 2 dress shoes, 1 normal pair of sandals, and one pair of slippers (which I only use when I need to go to the backyard, or get the mail from outside, etc.)...........so that makes a total of 7 pairs of shoes, and I only use 3 of them on daily basis! The rest are just sitting around and get used on occasion..........so.......they are not *necessary*. I *could* do without them. So shoes are necessary, but not every pair of them is! Only a couple are. He he

My aunt gets mad at me when I tell her this. She is crazy about shoes! She has a whole walk-in-closet full..........it looks like a shoe store..........seriously; and I have NEVER seen her wear the same pair of shoes twice. What a waste. I'm always teasing her about it.

Pops, I start a short course in shoe making in June - want to be my first customer???

I'm like you. I don't have a lot of pairs of shoes (but I do love well made shoes, it's just that my more serious addictions like books, CDs and cats get priority for any spare cash )

That is SO interesting! How did this come about?

PCB...I think you have left a few "necessary" shoes off your list....let's see....black day heels, black flats, navy blue heels, navy blue flats, red heels, red flats, neutral heels and flats, brown clogs, black clogs, and of course for after six you need cloth shoes -- at least black and a neutral and then for summer you need some sandals and some mules for dressing up and some lighter color shoes. For exercise...some that are only worn in the gym and others for outside exercising and biking shoes, and hiking shoes. Not to mention snow boots, high and low and dress boots. I'm not sure if holiday shoes falls under necessary or not????



Now the list of fun shoes.......

[EssTer]

I can't decide .. I think both of them are great!...maybe first one? or maybe second one? LOL...I really don't know....

(I voted for second one )

I'm losing my job in the next six months, and my redeployment chappie gave me some course brochures as they provide training dollars for some re-skilling. It was on the first random page I opened! The tutor has had a shoe making business since the 80s, apparently. I don't start until June, but I'm busting to go right now.

Now I have to go back and find courses that work will sponsor - they think pilates, shoe making, olive curing and Photoshop aren't applicable

Sara, red heels? I've never been daring enough to wear red shoes - I envy you!

A made another thread, but here is my new dress...

[lbaker]

It's purrfect, it's just beautiful. Have fun and laugh alot

[carole]

Tonya that is one sexy little number, you look great in it, what is the front like?, I love dresses that feature something special at the back, hey have a great time girl.

[Tonya]

The front is low cut and kind of squared. My step mom and I have decided what we're doing with it. I'm going for the 80's look, so we're going to put black tulle at the bottom. I may add thick black satin ribbon belt (depending on if it looks ok with that low back), and black satin ribbon to the straps. I'm going to get some black gloves and black shoes.
