I am now to the point where if I find a pair of shoes I want but have nothing to wear them with I will look for an outfit for them and buy it too.

This is bad. I never knew I could become such a girl.

Tons of people in this forum must do this.

I'm the same with make up. Last Christmas I got this amazing emerald green Helena Rubinstein eyeshadow and compulsively started buying emerald green clothes that would match perfectly. How sad is that?!

I'm like out the door 'cause there is this pair of red heels I stopped myself from buying yesterday for the mere practicality that I have absolutely nothing to wear them with. Pffft, like I need practical shoes.

fafa, I do not wear make up. I never learnt how and I'm not afraid of totally messing up.

My motto is "If I can afford it, I'll buy it." Bad times are always round the corner, and I think we should treat ourselves till we can. When I move out of my parents' I'll hardly have any money to my name, so why not enjoy it now?

Do you ever wear mascara or just lip gloss?

I wear lip gloss sometimes. Never mascara or anything else.

Been there done that.

i do that too, but money seems to come in cycles for me. either i have loads, or im eating ramen and raiding my moms fridge for snacks.

i love handbags. i buy handbags when i have 40 in the closet still. but they never match. i just carry them because they are fun.

i think its more fun to not match somedays. plus im just too lazy to look for things that do match and usually spend too much money on one thing so when i go to find something that does match, im too broke to get it.

I am banned from buying shoes now, I have almost 90 pairs (and I threw some away around Christmas time) my Dad goes nuts. I just can't help it. I think shoes make an outfit, and I like to rotate them so the heels don't get worn out so my shoes will last as long as possible.

I go on net a porter and buy shoes about once every 2 weeks, & they're quite expensive, but I buy tonnes off the highstreet as well - and if I find some that I like, I often buy them in other colours too.

I don't really drink, or smoke though (this is my pathetic excuse)

you act as if this is abig deal.

I"m the same way, but with flip flops. I have like 10 different styles in every color I can find them in. I make my hubby crazy. lol I also have a rediculous amount of New Balance. Several pairs of which are still in the box. I plan to go through all my shoes and clothes next week, though, and donate them. Nobody needs 65 pairs of shoes or 50some skirts.

and not just this. shoes and clothes and hand bags and accesories must all match. seriously, in the last year i've spent more money on clothes and shoes and accesories than in my whole life. i guess it has something to do with getting older.

'I need new clothes', she thinks, 'new skin, a mind I can bear to live in'.

i do that. i also tend to buy shoes in really outrageous colours, and then i have to walk around for weeks to find a bag that matches the colour exactly. because for some reason i can't break the "matching shoes and bag" rule.

same here...i bought a grey tweed skirt to go with my grey tweed boots, most women buy the clothes then the shoe to go with the outfit

I feel sick. I've bought four pairs of shoes in the past two weeks. One sneaker, two slingback summery/dressy/yet still casual shoes, and one pair of KILLER heels. ARGHH.
