How many shoes are too many shoes and would you commit to a pair a year (fine, season) with no problem? Which would they be?

Leandra Medine concludes her post How Many Shoes Are Too Many Shoes?  with the questions above and unlike her, I thought that it was ridiculous, if not inhumane to be asked to commit to wearing one pair of shoes a year or a season… especially since I can’t even commit to a pair a weekend.

But it got me thinking. And I guess that if I absolutely had to narrow my shoe collection down to only one pair, I’d go with these embellished flats from Rochas’ Spring 2014 Ready-to-wear collection.

They’d be perfect with the pair of straight ankle-length jeans that I’m planning on getting for Fall, all the while being equally perfect with a midi skirt or mini skirt. Also, parent-teacher night? Check. Date night? Check. Wedding? Check. Giovanna Battaglia approved? Check.

Now, I’m fully aware that I’m $775 short and a year late for these flats, but since I never really intended on getting rid of my shoes, it makes no difference to me… That being said, if any of you is on the market for a pair of embellished slingback flats, look at what I found inside of Glamour’s September issue.

AND, they also come in black! Bam!

P.S. If I were another woman – well basically if I were a woman who lunches as oppose to a woman who teaches, I would have settled on this pair from the Rochas’ s Fall 2014 Ready-to-wear collection…
