Hopelessly Devoted To You

So, I've had the idea of sort of cataloguing my wardrobe, or at least my favorite pieces. I'm not sure exactly why I decided to do this, but I really like the concept of having pictures of the things I wear every day as individual pieces, without the context of being part of an outfit.
I decided to start by documenting my shoe collection, because (as I'm sure you all know) I really love shoes, and I have quite a few of them. I began with my oxfords, which you can see below!


Campers, a bunch of money at Gravity Pope.
I love love love these shoes! The leather is buttery soft, and they're so comfortable.



These were about $5 at Value Village, and they had never even been worn!


I ordered these from Urban Outfitters last year, and while I do really like them, I hardly wear them because they sort of kill my feet. They're also the only high heel oxfords I own, which surprised me for a moment, since I sort of feel like I should have more than that.


These are also from Urban Outfitters. They're very shiny, as I'm sure you can see. Every time I put them on, I feel like dancing, which I usually do.

These were about $2 at a rummage sale. They do sort of resemble irish dancing shoes a bit, but I'm pretty sure that they still qualify as oxfords.

I just realized that I have more shoes from Urban Outfitters than I previously thought. I ordered these at the same time as the gold wingtips, expecting to like the gold ones a lot more, but I was wrong! I've worn these way more than the gold pair. I'm not sure what it is about them that makes me love them so much; I think it's probably that they actually look a lot like men's brogues, and for some reason I seem to really like clothes that look like they were made for boys.
