It is a common notion today that most women have a billion pairs of shoes. So many shoes so little time to wear them all. Most men agree with this statement and then they usually follow this up with a sentence or two along the lines of why do girls need so many pair of shoes, I have one pair of dress shoes and one pair of trainers! But if you think about it logically then there is no wonder why women have so many pairs of shoes. Due to the busy lives many women live these days there is a need for a different style of shoe depending on the day and on the events of that day.

When you shop online for a pair of women’s shoes they are split up into categories such as day wear, evening wear, casual, boots, trainers, sandals, and maybe a few others depending on the shop and the site. Sounds simple enough, but that is at least five pairs of shoes right there and that is if you just own one pair from each category.

This is just the tip of the ice berg for you can delve further into each category. Lets look at Boots for example, you can have fashion flat ankle boots, heeled ankle boots, pointed knee length boots, cowboy boots, Boots to wear with jeans, Boots to wear with a skirt, Casual boots, and Boots for work. Even if you only have half of the options above that is still four more pairs of shoes. Colour hasn’t even been mentioned yet either. How can one colour of shoe fit many different colours and patterns of outfits? Its true black goes with most colours but this isn’t always the case, you can’t wear a delicate white chiffon dress with bulky black heels they would be too over powering for the dress. Even if you take the category of trainers, now how many pair of Trainers does a person need really? Well you could have Trainers for gym, trainers for out door sports which are sturdier to protect your ankles and feet, or maybe studded trainers for grass sports to prevent you from slipping over. That’s three pairs for very good legitimate reasons, nothing to do with having a choice of style and colour but simply for practical reasons.

So we have at about 4 pairs of shoes from the main categories previously stated, approximately at least another 2 or 3 pairs of the different styles within each of these category, and then a colour variation of each of these styles, that adds up to a minimum of about 12 pairs. So there you have it, a mathematical and very logical explanation into the phenomena of women and their shoes.
