I hope we don't need an intervention, because I don't know who's left to intervene - many of us seem to have the same problem!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974864 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 22:10:21 +0000 TraceyLiz65 974864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Guilty! &nbsp;I too love boots and just ordered a pair of burgundy ones I found on clearance today! &nbsp;They are my guilty pleasure and I have no regrets. &nbsp;Burgundy is still going to be big for winter so felt like it was a good addition... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974859 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 21:56:57 +0000 bj1111 974859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>of course, you need an intervention...send them to me and now you're a minimalist! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974769 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 20:33:11 +0000 Inge 974769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My motto: you can never have enough boots (especially if you live in a 4 season climate with lots of cold and/or rainy weather). No intervention required, as far as I'm concerned;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974766 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 20:32:00 +0000 Debra 974766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is a hoard of boots called Bootie ?????

Very smart. Most of these are in regular rotation.<br />Glory- I'm a 6, thanks for the offer though.<br />We sure love our shoes, dont we? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974726 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 19:31:52 +0000 Glory 974726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are a size 8, I would be happy to oblige on running an&nbsp;intervention! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974722 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 19:29:18 +0000 rachylou 974722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohmigosh, I have a lot of everything. The shoes are out of control. I'm reluctant to give away my fun shoes. I feel that any moment things will change and opportunities to wear them will come back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974715 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 19:23:44 +0000 unfrumped 974715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's okay if it works for you.</p> <p>I may be heading there, but not boots only. Most days I wear pants...and... shoes (or ankle boots). I've determined that pants are harder to achieve happy-10's in than shoes, even though I have fussy feet--doh! So I also was reviewing minimalist, francophile, and all that stuff, and may be&nbsp;heading to be more minimalist in the total number of garments &amp; colors and to streamline the number of silhouettes, maybe 3&nbsp;styles &nbsp;of pants in the best fits and let the meh ones go, and then use more different types of shoes. Partly because it's so hard to find not-black pants and once you have on black pants you kind of look like you have on..black pants... even if they're different.</p> <p>This is an ancient formula, but I'm a slow learner, plus a late adopter of Zappo's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974706 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 19:08:13 +0000 Susie 974706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes- shoes!&nbsp;</p> <p>Do you wear all of them? If so, then it's not too many!</p> <p>I am currently trying an experiment. Back in April (about a month into Spring), I put stickers on several pairs of shoes that I wasn't sure are keepers. If I wore them, the sticker was removed and those will probably get to stay.&nbsp;When it's time for the seasonal closet re-arranging in a few months, I'll re-evaluate the ones that didn't get worn.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm hoping to reduce the overall number by at least a few pairs.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-name-is-shedev-and-i-might-be-a-boot-hoarder#post-974702 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 19:03:24 +0000 shedev 974702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been following the mininalist thread, and I dont think I'll ever be a true minimalist but my wardrobe is slowly getting smaller. My boot collection is getting larger though. I did a count and I currently have 22 pairs. Do I need an intervention? Do you have a lot of any particular item? </p>
