    I have an unhealthy addiction to CAT boots, it's been going on for years now I nearly have every pair that's hit the shelves and I've bought the same pair numerous times I buy about 12-15 pairs a year.

    What brands or items of clothing are you addicted to? or am I just speshul

    I'm not really addicted to any brand of clothing. I'll buy one pair of Dubes (I'm obcessed with Dubes), and that'll be it, I'm happy.

    Not sure I would go so far as to call it an addiction (seems pretty tame compared to your CAT habit ntbell!) but I own 3 pairs of Diesel Jeans and 5 Kipling bags, all in different styles and colours. If I had more disposable income I would probably buy many more of each.

    I am addicted to Kipling bags, I must have over 20 of them now, my husband keeps on buying them for me when he visits their main shop in Brussels, they are so cute.

    Ditto, well to be honest shoes in general. I have about 15+ pairs of Irregular Choice going back about 4-5 seasons now.

    Just bought myself some new Adidas the other day. They're so pretty

    Don't worry, when you have to bring all your shoes to Dublin as a single car load then you know you're in trouble.

    Scarves. I feel naked leaving the house without one. Pashminas are great for wrapping around your arms when you're out in the smoking area of pubs too and can't be bothered with the hassle of a coat so my obsession is slightly practical!

    I have an insane amount of bags and shoes. Refuse to count them anymore. They're EVERYWHERE though. My wardrobe is full of them and there are about 3 big boxes full of just my shoes downstairs.

    Black leather jackets; everything from short, light zip-up jackets to ankle length coats. I've got three heavy vintage biker-style jackets alone. :o My wardrobe smells like a tannery, and I love it. :D

    Dudara, those are deadly trainers! I love the colours (so much so that I may be forced to buy them :o)

    I have so many clothes and accessories that I can't actually think of which I have the most :o I love putting outfits together so I'm always picking up new belts/bags/shoes etc. I do buy a pair of dubarrys every eighteen months though, for about the last twelve years :rolleyes:

    I have more than a few addictions..

    T-shirts- I'll just buy them everytime I go shopping..
    Black- no matter how many colours on the shelf, I'll go for the black
    Scarves- yeah!
    Eyeliner- I have pretty much every colour
    Plaid- love it
    Socks- too many! but i only buy unusual ones usually..
    Bracelets- read socks..
    Shoes- again ^

    I'm pretty much just addicted to unusual stuff I guess..
