My sneakers.
My flip flops for inside the house
My flip flops for outside the house
Black boots. I wore than once about a year ago for an interview
A pair of black mary janes with heels. The snap pops off so I don't wear them anymore. I should give them away.

I want a pair of driving mocs for work but haven't been able to find any.

Store them in clear boxes that stack from the container store. It was about a $500 investment. They work to organize other things too.

Several hundred, and that's a low ball estimate. I own well over a hundred pairs of Manolos (yes, DCUM has ripped me apart for this in the past) and well over a hundred pairs of sneakers. So if you throw in other brands of heels, other types of shoes, etc., it's probably a ridiculous amount by DCUM standards. But shoes and purses are my thing so I don't see downsizing ever being a part of my future.

Must make getting ready, packing etc, so much easier.

I'm poor and live in a tiny one bedroom apartment with two people. I don't know where you think I'm going that I need to pack. The last time I got on an airplane was 3 years ago to take my daughter to Disney. I wore my sneakers and packed my outside flip flops. The time before that when I packed, it was 7 years ago to go to my grandfather's funeral. I wore my sneakers, packed my black heels and flip flops. I can't afford to care about shoes. I'm going to work until the day I drop dead. I have zero retirement money. I have $1200 in my savings account. You have no reason to be jealous of me.

Wow, really touched a nerve. Sorry you are poor. That sucks.

Anywho, obviously some women are obsessed with shoes or at least buy too many pairs, and others don't seem to care and buy simply what they need. Trying to simplify and looking for inspiration!

I love shoes and would have more if I thought I could store them in a way I'd really use them.

I'm the PP w/ several hundred pairs... As far as storage goes, I have one wall in my bedroom dedicated as a display - the longest wall - with custom floor to ceiling displays where most of my "day to day" heels sit. And I have another bedroom that I've turned into a changing room and all 4 walls have floor to ceiling custom displays. Anything not on those displays, I keep in an extra large storage closet in clear shoe bins. So sneakers, flip flops, sandals mainly. My "luxury" sneakers that I wear pretty often (Yeezy's, Jordan's) have 1 IKEA display shelf in another part of my bedroom. I'm fortunate to have the space that I do and I'm even luckier that one of my friends is an interior designer so she helped me plan, design, and build exactly what I needed.

Is this for real?

If it is, you're cheesy.
