The rules are easy.
I will ask a question. The first person who comments will answer my question, and will leave a question for the next person to answer. This next person will answer that question, and leave a question for the next next person to answer. I am sure you get it! 😉To make things more fun, the questions have to reflect the chosen theme. For example, if the theme is “Mirrors,” all questions should be relate to mirrors. When was the last time you looked into a mirror? If your mirror reflection would tell you something, would you want to hear it? As much as possible, let’s not repeat the questions for added fun! You are also welcome to play more than once!
Cheers to our fourth weekend soiree!
The theme: SHOES
My question for Person #1: Look at the shoes you’re wearing right now. If they could speak, what would they tell you?
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.

Question#2: If shoes could hear, what would you like to say to your favorite pair of shoes?
Em Dy
January 12, 2008 at 5:14 pm (16 years ago)You’re almost worn out but I can’t part with you just yet. I like exploring new places with you.
Question #3: Do you get rid of the shoebox after you’ve worn the shoes or keep it to house the shoes?
hazel
January 12, 2008 at 9:22 pm (16 years ago)I keep them to house the shoes and keep most of the dust out. : ) The rack looks better with boxes too instead of just shoes.
Q#4: If you could own just one pair of shoes, what would it be?
Rach (Heart of Rachel)
January 12, 2008 at 10:52 pm (16 years ago)A comfortable but stylish pair of black sandals.
Q#5: What was the last pair of shoes that you bought (describe them)?
JMom
January 12, 2008 at 11:02 pm (16 years ago)last pair of shoes I bought were slip on wedge sandals last summer. Brown wedge heels with white straps. Gosh, I can’t believe I hadn’t bought shoes in so long! I was looking at boots before winter, but never found one I liked or fit me right
Q#6: What type shoes make you feel most sexy and why?
evi
January 13, 2008 at 3:11 am (16 years ago)I feel sexy wearing strappy sandals with stiletto heels because it makes me taller and gives that impression of elongated legs.
Q#7: How many shoes do you have?
Lisa
January 13, 2008 at 3:26 am (16 years ago)I’m not sure how many pairs I own, but I regularly wear about 3-5 pairs: green flip flops, purple ballet flats, brown fancy ballet flats, tennis shoes, slippers!
Q#6: If you could take a trip in your favorite pair of shoes, where would you take them?
MarysMom
January 13, 2008 at 4:41 am (16 years ago)To a nice stretch of sandy white beach so I can take them off and run towards the water!
Q#8: What’s the most expensive pair you’ve bought?
sha
January 13, 2008 at 6:04 am (16 years ago)oh my i was hoping to answer the other question haha… now I might have to spill some beans here.
9 years ago I was in Aspen, Co. My boss had a big xmas party I had no evening shoes to wear. I was sent to town and get a pair. What do you expect in Aspen? I got the first shoes that fitted black heels velvet…9 years ago it was $350 ouchhh but hey I did not pay… so basically i would say it does not answer to that… but that pair is the most expensive ever.
Ok heeled ankle length boots which I bought in Switzerland few years ago fine leather 4 years now I still wear them… price cant the exact it was almost 200 Swiss Francs but now I can tell you for 4 years its worth every franc on it…
DO YOU BUY SHOES FOR COMFORT AND NEED OR FASHION?
Em Dy
January 13, 2008 at 10:12 am (16 years ago)Comfort is my first priority. My shoes are mostly flats, sneakers, mocassins – the best for walking.
IF SHOES COULD TALK, WHAT WOULD THEY TELL YOU?
J
January 13, 2008 at 3:21 pm (16 years ago)Don’t walk like you’re deliberately trying to scuff me so you could get rid of me. 😀
What was the shoe you bought that was so worth the price you paid to get it?
Toni
January 13, 2008 at 8:27 pm (16 years ago)I bought this sweet pair of black shoes with kitten heels. It cost about P1,800 — a good price, very much worth it even though the shoes look positively simple.
Do you own a pair of red shoes?
kaoko
January 13, 2008 at 10:53 pm (16 years ago)Yes, but I don’t think they’d take me to Kansas, seeing they’re red chucks. I’ll probably end up in Seattle instead.
Have you ever bought a pair of shoes then regretted it?
Cookie
January 14, 2008 at 9:11 am (16 years ago)Many times. It’s a good thing that my mother-in-law and I share the same shoe size
Question : What are the oldest pair of shoes that you own?
Leah
January 14, 2008 at 9:45 am (16 years ago)I have this pair of Nike running shoes I use for casual Fridays and in the spring and fall weekends. I’ve had them forever.
Question: How many pair of black shoes do you have?
J
January 14, 2008 at 12:59 pm (16 years ago)I forget exactly how many. I think it’s more than 5, but fewer than 10.
Do you own a pair of Crocs? Do you like it? If you don’t own one, would you buy one? (okay, too many questions. hehe. sorry!)
ayen
January 14, 2008 at 1:08 pm (16 years ago)no i don’t. my brother and I don’t like the design of Crocs. Although even before it got famous, I saw culinary students at ISCAHM wearing those. So if the chef during that time required use to wear Crocs (for the short course I enrolled at) I would probably buy and wear those.
From what store did you buy your most favorite pair of shoes?
tin
January 15, 2008 at 10:07 am (16 years ago)At a Bass store in Makati. Those brown, sturdy shoes are so comfy yet stylish. Wished I brought myself another pair before leaving Manila.
Question: How much would you be willing to pay for a good pair of shoes?
JO
January 16, 2008 at 9:18 am (16 years ago)I love Dr. Scholl’s shoes and they cost an average of $40…
Question: Do you have more shoes than your partner?
ApplesH
January 19, 2008 at 12:01 am (16 years ago)Yes! 10x more!
Question: How high is the highest heel of your shoes?
Meeya
January 19, 2008 at 2:40 am (16 years ago)mine is about 3 inches. (or 3 1/2?) i only wear it when i’m out with the girls because i don’t want to be as tall (or taller?) than hubby when we’re together hehehe. and i sure don’t wear it when i’m with ninna, hehe!
Question: If you could raid the shoe closet of any celebrity, whose would it be?
Nina
January 21, 2008 at 6:17 pm (16 years ago)This is fun. First time to join and I like this topic…
Nothing in particular but I’d be curious about Sara Jessica Parker’s collection. I used to watch Sex and the City and in that series she has a collection of expensive shoes – manolos and others. I’m sure she have a good collection in real life. I even remember one particular episode wherein she didn’t have any savings but she had more than 100 pairs of shoes. I don’t wear stiletto though.
Do you give away your old shoes especially those that are in very good condition, or you just keep them for collection?
ApplesH
January 30, 2008 at 6:08 pm (16 years ago)I give them away to my sisters actually.
How many shoes per color do you have?
