65 is a much more sound number than 64. I, personally, think 100 is a good round perfect number for pairs of shoes.

Beek lovely job on the flip flops. I still slip and call them thongs every once in awhile. My DS says thongs are underwear!

I love shoes! (... I just thought I would throw that in here!) I have owned several pairs of completely ridiculous shoes that I loved... but were probably less than useful A couple of my favorites were my bright yellow pumps. They had about 4 inch heels and pointy toes. They were marked down on sale a few times though you could still see the original price of $189.99! I bought them for ... 19.89 I am a bargain shopper thanks to my mother. My other favortes all came from WalMart or Payless, either flats or heels, just whatever happened to strike me as cute that moment. However ALL of them were deffinately on sale!

A real shoe person packs a separate bag for all her shoes when travelling. My sister is a real shoe person. She always has at least one extra piece of luggage for shoes, if not two. She almost cancelled her wedding when the perfect pair of shoes she'd ordered didn't come in on time in the correct size. The only reason she didn't cancel because of shoes is because my sister, and therefore my mother, freaked out and scared the crap out of customer service, and they found a pair in some godawful corner of the country and paid to have them overnighted. I, on the other hand, said "whatever" when it came to shoe time and opted for the old 2 1/2 inch ivory satin pump. I only travel with two pairs of shoes. I only have around 8 pairs of shoes in regular rotation, the old standard black three-inch pump is my go-to shoe. Sometimes I change it up with a bit of a platform on the front. I am not a shoe person.

I found these Madden Girl shoes on sale at Mervyn's. At 3 1/2 inches I've decided they're going to be my New Years shoes!
