Being a visual person, I like to keep my shoes out of their boxes and display them as wearable art. I store my footwear collection on white bookshelves for clarity reasons. But due to restricted space and a horrible hoarding habbit, some of my treasured footwear have had to reside in their original cartons, hence I have neglected many fine beauties as of late, like these Marc Jacobs butterfly laceups. I haven’t worn them for over a year! Feel like a bad mother… Actually I’ve never worn this vintage fringe dress or the tweed coat before either come to think of it…it’s simply not possible to dress up as a vet.
The purse was a gift from my grandma- it is so intricately made, like most vintage pieces from decades ago. There are multiple pockets inside including a mirror and a coin purse, all joined together! They don’t make things like they used to…My grandma is currently holidaying in Shanghai at the moment, wish I could join her :)
So how do you store your footwear?
Don’t you just love street art? The bold colours, lines and topography are both visually awakening and mentally stimulating. Why have coffee when you can just wake up to graffiti? Applauses to this street artist. All great art and design is proof of a greater designer. We are so blessed to live in this intricately created world. Happy Hump Day lovelies!

My footwear is a mess!
I have room for it i just can not keep it tidy!
Love the dress and those shoes – OMG!
Oh, I’m terrible with my shoes. I only have a few pair (maybe three I wear regularly) and they’re usually in a pile by the front door. And they’re always scuffed up, I wonder why!
Those shoes are utterly adorable! Discovering them in their box must be like receiving a little present all over again.
My shoes live in my wardrobe in special drawers or racks… or the floor. For some reason, I keep finding more and more shoes in my collection. The ideal solution would be to have some sort of shoe wardrobe, but that will have to wait until I have a lot more space and money, alas.
Love your dress. I love seeing street art all over the place. I wish my city wouldn’t be so critical about it. Also I keep all my shoes in boxes or even just piled up on the floor. I wish I had shelves to organize them.
In love with that clutch and shoes!!!!! Awesome pictures!

P.S. See what is new in my shop!
I keep my shoes in their boxes, with the labels facing outwards, so I know which is which! As my collection expands, I would love to display them in a white shelving unit!

This is a fabulous dress and you picked such a great backdrop to let it stand out. Tweed is one of my most favorite materials. I’m an academic at heart and like all that comes along with the librarian look. Tweed, elbow patches, cordorouy. You really do have a fabulous wardrobe. I’m totally envious.
I love the librarian looks too- especially if it’s a well-fitted pencil skirt :) Yes I do have an obese wardrobe and am trying to detox! Please help me out :)
