All the shoes I own as a luxury minimalist | Quiet Luxury, Practical, Comfy, Wearable, Versatile.

Hi guys, I'm Eileen. Let's take a look at my entire shoe collection! As a luxury minimalist, I agree my shoe collection is not exactly 'minimalistic'. However, most of the shoes I showed in this video were purchased way before I learnt to be more intentional with my spending. In the last 4 years, I've added a total of 3 pairs of shoes in total (quite a downsize from my previous way of shopping!). As shoes tend to have very poor resale values, I've decided to maximise the value of what I own, and avoid buying more mindlessly. I'm quite happy with my current shoe collection, I think it's a mix of quiet luxury, practicality, comfort, and versatility xx

Love that you are taking care of the past purchases instead of just quickly selling them away after you decided to live minimally ❤ great inspiration!!

I've struggled to find flats that fit properly - but I'm determined! A nude or black pair would be such a wardrobe staple

[@ColourfulNoir]

Love nude shoes xx

[@CapeCodBelle]

Eileen, I really like your shoe collection! I think your burgundy Valentino flats would look fantastic with so many of your neutral-colored outfits! I also love the Acne boots and the over-the-knee boots on you. Since I have a very hard time finding footwear that fits my feet, so I am envious of women who can wear beautiful shoes.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Oh thank you!xx

[@lindanolasco3918]

Thank you for sharing your collection of footwear. You have given me ideas to declutter and to consider what I actually use . I love your collection of flats.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Wonderful! I’m so glad! Thank you xx

[@suzannehall5200]

I am a big fan of ballet flats with pointy toes. They add a bit of elegance to the traditional ballet flats and they are so comfortable to wear out all day.

[@megancantley2949]

Love everything, you always look so elegant and classy. Btw, your house looks gorgeous! I can tell it’s decorated stunning! 🤩💕

[@shawndavis7878]

I enjoyed the video! You have a wonderful collection of shoes/boots. My favorites are the Valentino Rockstuds both pairs, the Christian Louboutin flats, the Acne ankle boots, and the Roger Vivier flats. I also loved how you styled all of your shoes. Thanks for sharing.😄👟🥾🥿

[@wuzetia]

[@faymoghtader7178]

I agree with you 100 percent I bought an Hermes brown sandals yes they are chic and really elevate your wardrobe, they were very uncomfortable and I ended up consigning it and will never but another. My Manolah Blahnik flat sandals in brown are just chic and very usable.

[@c.robles2185]

Hello Eileen, I was in Singapore in December and I bought there the Oran sandals from Hermes, I was very happy because it fits perfectly. I used to have always these gaps problems with the sandals, when I tried it at the Hermes stores in Europe.

[@Tisubasah1111]

i just happily subscribed to yr channel after watching some of your videos. i just started building my collection and i think your videos are very useful to help me mindfully purchase. i love how every items that you keep and feature (not only in this video) has reasons of why it is worth buying & keeping, instead of just showing them. it shows me points of considerations that i may overlook before deciding to buy something. thank you and please keep sharing!

[@annie22krm]

Your videos help me center my spending habits!! love it.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Awesome! Thank you!xx

[@JW-dg9gf]

Acne boots and the ultra minis are now on my wishlist 😊

[@ColourfulNoir]

They’re awesome xx

Thank you for this video❤ I commented that I would like to see a shoe collection in an earlier video ❤ Inspiring!

[@sally3570]

Love this Eileen! Gave me lots of good ideas. I need to pare down my closet so it’s great to see what you think are the essentials and what you have/like and why. Uggs are meant to be worn barefoot. Try it and see how warm they are. ❤

[@mindbodysoul8214]

Lovely shoe collection Eileen. My Faves are the Acne Ankle Boots, Over the Knee Boots - Birks & Uggs will Always be a Favorite. Love all of your outfits & TFS💛✨️

[@flohough1870]

What a beautiful, fun and common sense shoe collection! Heels are so bad for you in so many ways, I often wonder if some of my back and leg issues go back to years of wearing heels in the workplace.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Happy Sunday, Eileen. I adore the kitty flats. They look so good on you. I have always loved shoes. Comfort is my number one priority as well. At 66 years old, I avoid heels. I need to go through my collection so that I can minimize the number of shoes and boots that I have. The only designer shoes I have are the Golden Goose sneakers. I really like them and they are oh so comfortable.

[@9400lilly]

Hello dianecyment1715, I’ve been eyeing the golden goose for some time but I’ve to buy them online which for me is an ordeal! Have you had to size up? Are they true to size? I’ve a slim foot but to the wider side, widish, so often a problem.

[@dianecyment1715]

@@9400lilly I went to their store here in Scottsdale. It is hard to buy shoes online. They run true to size, but I had to break them in for a few weeks before they became very comfortable. I hope this helps.

[@ColourfulNoir]

The kitty flats are definitely one of a kind! Xx

[@maijam6709]

Your Roger Vivier and Jimmy Choo flats are my favorites ☺️ I also love those Acne ankle boots!

[@egarncarz804]

Beautiful collections.

I really like the over the knee boots on you Eileen ❤

[@ColourfulNoir]

[@ziggyess]

Great shoe collection Eileen. I just did a video of my shoe collection 2 weeks ago, I have 6 luxury shoes and 4 non luxury. I donated most of my shoes that I no longer wear as I am a minimalist like you are. I hope we can collaborate on videos in the future. Thanks for sharing your shoe collection. 😊

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thanks for sharing!!xx

[@SociallyStaciJ]

I returned my Orans for the same reason.

[@yuyan3837]

Hi Eileen, would you do a Q&A one day introducing yourself? Like where you’re from originally? What’s your ethnic background? (Let me guess, are you Korean)?

[@ColourfulNoir]

Noted! I’m a Malaysian Chinese xx

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

Love the sandals 👡 🩴 ❤😊

[@9400lilly]

Hello Eileen, in my opinion your burgundy flats are keepers, they are so beautiful and fit perfectly in your wardrobe. Now….the the ugly truth…. The vans….hummmm. I’ve a suggestion, since when you go for sneakers you want comfort, Softinos is my brand when I’m going sightseeing, I will stand on my feet all day long several days and not a blister no scratching, no breaking in period, nothing, I own several and if the brand closes doors I’m sure I’ll feel suicidal. It’s delicate and low-cut toe sneaker with very comfy, supple leather and space in the front for all the toes and not just a few! Summer ones even have holes to stay cooler, has enough sole support and the price is accessible. Don’t get mad about the Vans. 😜

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thank you so much for sharing! No offence taken about the Vans xx

[@jessier.cardona6062]

Love those Roger Vivier flats! You and your legs make them gorgeous and comfy looking! Thanks Dear Eileen. Have a blessed week ahead. Take care , GB and come back soon. ❤

[@ColourfulNoir]

Glad you like them! Thank you xx

[@nadyahajj8260]

In the outfit while wearing Vans you had on a cute backpack- could you share what backpack it is? Thank you!

[@ColourfulNoir]

It’s a mini Kipling xx

[@nadyahajj8260]

@ColourfulNoir Thank you! I just ordered one as a touring bag when out with my husband and daughter on vacation! It seems like it will be lightweight and easy to carry items around while we are traveling :-)

[@SBRNR]

Hi Eileen, can you please share where your black cardigan is from?

[@ColourfulNoir]

I got it from marks and spencer quite a number of years ago xx

[@SBRNR]

@@ColourfulNoir Thanks! It looks very pretty on you.

[@Karsonvideoskits69]

Such and insightful look in your shoe choices. Just wondering- are Valentino Rockstud flats true to size? And are the Jimmy Choo Romy flats comfortable? Considering of getting one. Thanks

[@ColourfulNoir]

Yes the Valentinos are true to size for me, the Jimmy Choos are very comfy too xx

[@burberryclaretred6676]

I returned the Oran sandals the opening hurt my feet and caused bulging of my feet causing bunions

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thank you for sharing xx

[@saturnprincess88]

Hi Eileen, I loved seeing your shoe collection, and after your ringing endorsement of the Acne Studios boots, I tried to look them up, but I think they might have been discontinued sadly! So disappointing. Also, where are your high heels? Are these really all your shoes and you don't own any dressy high heels? I kept waiting for that part but it never came. Very interesting, if you don't have any--may I ask why not?

[@wrecklisseve]

You have a beautiful shoe collection. I relate to this collection because I can't wear heels anymore so it's nice to see a high end collection of flat or low heeled shoes, boots and sandals. I would be interested to know more about how you care for/repair your designer shoes -- do the boutiques provide repair services for shoes? Do you take them to a local cobbler? How does the relationship with the brand differ for shoe care vs. bag care?

[@ColourfulNoir]

Noted! I’ll try to make a video xx

[@wrecklisseve]

Love your well rounded collection. Might i ask for reference how tall are you? I love the Speedy 25 on you but im afraid even this size will look too big on me.

@@ColourfulNoir thankyou for replying 💕

[@roedkrem]

You say in a couple of videos that you use the low key/subtle luxury items for work events, why is that? And what do you work with?😊 just curius and trying to learn. Im a doctor and want to dress better/more classy/more expensive because of my work 🙈 so just curious about your opinion

[@lucial.3958]

Where is your black leather jacket from? Do you like it? 😊

[@ColourfulNoir]

It’s from SET, it’s quite a good bargain, the leather is very supple xx

[@lucial.3958]

@@ColourfulNoir Thank you so much!!

[@gkr7019]

Eileen To me you are not really a minimalist per se. In fact I like.that you are v intentional when you shop. Justifying before every purchase the question whether they will be worn regularly before pulling the trigger. Your collection is well curated and balanced. Enjoying the luxury items and regularly using them. I have seen so many influencers buying for the sake of buying and soon get tired of them and at the end never ever wore them once. Such sheer waste of money. The biggest winners are the fashion houses. You are smart in managing your finances without going overboard over luxuries.

[@ColourfulNoir]

Thank you so much for your kind words xx

[@Mimlou]

Any tips on best way to wear those type of flats without the feet sweating or developing odor? I like the way they look, but I know low no-show socks won’t work with them. Thx!

[@ColourfulNoir]

Coming soon! Xx

[@khensley7057]

This is NOT minimalist at all!!! Total maximist. Its great you're trying but you spend way too much Money. A true minimalist would have total 2-3 pairs only. Your closet looks like a superior $$$$ of tons of stuff

[@scegenius8751]

She’s already addressed this!

[@sophiastern2133]

You can learn a lot about a man or woman by their choice of footwear.. Same goes for a watch ... Anyone waring The ugly Birkenstock make me cringe .... Dr SHOOL is way better as home or beach shoes.... Xtra flat are bad for the feet..( The classless H -Oran sandals...or copies !.). Leather is the only acceptable material.for shoes ... Maintaining your feet in good shape and health is premordial for older years...

[@dianecyment1715]

I felt the same way about Birkenstock sandals, but I tried them and have had mine for several years. I think they add a stylish edge with the right outfit. They are also so comfortable and easy to just slip them on.

[@suckgames]

Eileen, we are waiting for your high heel collection video ;)

[@ColourfulNoir]

I don’t own any high heels anymore xx
