I have yet to meet a woman who didn't love a good
shoe, but let's be honest we don't always have it in our budget to buy every
pair we like. So, when you find a woman like Ivie Imoisili that has had
the good fortune to collect over 400+ shoes you just have to sit back and
admire her. Ivie has a shoe collection that would tug at any shoe lovers
heart, with bold colors, unique styles, and classic designer heels. Her
shoe closet is very pink, cute, and inviting allowing easy movement and
selection of that perfect pair to go with any outfit.
Ivie has also taken
her shoe love into a side profession as a brand ambassador for Just Fabulous,
Kimora Lee Simmons monthly shoe membership club. Whether it is just
following her passion for collecting or sharing her love of shoes as a brand
ambassador Ivie is definitely a woman after every shoe lovers heart. My oh so fabulous editor suggested I reach
out to Ivie, who is known for her massive collection, for an interview.
After weeks of playing email tag we finally got it done and know I
can finally share with you her story and photos of her amazing
collection.
(Me) Would you say you have a shoe obsession? When,
did you first realize you had a love for shoes?
(Ivie) Some would say I have a shoe obsession but I consider myself a
collection of feminine footwear. I realized I had a love for shoes when I
graduated from college, started working full time and could afford to buy more
than a pair at a time.
(Me) Do you remember the first pair you purchased? What
were they?
(Ivie) I remember the very first pair of shoes I purchased with my own
money. I just received my first paycheck from Target and went to the shoe
section and bought 2 pairs of shoes for $25. Looking back, they were the
ugliest pairs of shoes ever but it was my first high from a shoe purchase so
they were special.
(Me) How many shoes do you have in your collection?
(Ivie) I have over 400 pairs in my collection but this summer, I made
it a goal to cut my collection down by a hundred pairs and so far, I have given
away over 40 pairs. I am still looking for a loving home for the remaining
pairs.
(Me) How many square feet is your shoe closet? Is it your
dream closet?
(Ivie) I’m not sure of the exact square footage of my shoe closet but when
I was in the market for a home, I looked for a home with one more bedroom than
I actually needed because the idea was to turn a bedroom into a shoe closet,
which is what I did as soon as I started the remodel on my current home. It is
my dream shoe closet.
(Me) Did any celebrity shoe closets inspire your shoe closet?
(Ivie) Surprisingly, Miley Cyrus’ closet inspired my shoe closet. I
saw a picture of her closet in one of my shoe groups and I fell in love. First
of all, the walls were pink… my FAVORITE color. Secondly, it was so simple, it
was easy to take what I wanted and put my own spin on it.
