Quick & Easy Shoe Organization {Shoe Closet}

This post is for all of my shoe fanatics out there.

If you find that your shoes need more space to breathe and be admired, I'm with you on that one.

Here's an awesome idea to store your shoe collection, in a way that showcases their beauty, similar to department stores.

I don't know why this thought never occurred to me; I used to work at a shoe store back in college that used bookcases to display out shoes and boots.

All you need is a few tall bookcases with adjustable shelves and you are good to go. No more digging through a crowded closet to find the shoes to match your outfit with this easily accessible alternative.

The Ultimate Shoe Closet

Everyone has their "one thing". You know, the one item that you don't care how much it costs (you will buy it) or you don't care how much of a rush you are in (you will stop to look at it). For some people that may be cars, clothes, or purses; for me, it's shoes.

So when I saw the following image, I couldn't help but stop and stare...and dream!

What a beautiful closet, and look at all of the shoes!There's no arguing that this closet was a custom design for another shoe fanatic like myself (and possibly even you). So  much storage space, and a perfect seating area to let you out on your shoes in comfort, rather than hobbling around or grasping the shelving for stability.

What a beauty!

How To Choose Running Shoes

When your running shoes are so worn out that they have holes in them, or you start getting shin splints from the lack of support in your footwear, it's safe to say that you need new running shoes. 

So you go to the mall, or your local Running Room and stand in front of a wall of running shoes. But which pair do you choose?

If you're anything like me, you usually ask for advice from the sales person while telling them about your running conditions and where you need support the most. Now you no longer need to do this (I no longer will need to do this), thanks to the following chart that walks you through how to choose the proper running shoe for you!

This chart walks you through everything from the type of shoe itself, to tips for when you first try on the shoes in the store. 

Now the guess work is lowered, if not eliminated all together! 

Take Care,
