Most women own 15-30 pairs of shoes and wear 3-5 regularly. The rest take up cupboard space and contribute nothing. Three pairs done right cover almost every life context.
The three categories
Everyday walker (white trainers or low ankle boots). Quality mid-formal (loafers or pointed-toe flats). Comfort sandals or weather boots seasonally. Each does heavy lifting; together they handle most outfits.
What you can skip
Heels above 2 inches (rarely actually worn). 'Statement' shoes that don't go with anything. Distressed sneakers that only suit one outfit. Multiple variations of the same shoe type (one pair of black ankle boots, not three).
Audit what you've actually worn in the last 60 days. The shoes outside that list are taking up space without earning it.
