MFO Shoe Series: Ruby Gan

Ruby Gan is one of the ladies (the other is Jayjay Onrubia-Puno) behind Chocolate schu bar aka as schu. With shoe stores of her own, it would not be so hard-pressed (incidentally, she is a bemedaled bench press athlete) to think she'd have a huge shoe collection. Yes, that would be a given. But what is interesting is that she's got a fabulous shoe collection that shows her appreciation for shoes is really well cultivated and nurtured. She's got quite a collection of "It" shoes from various seasons, and it looks like it will continue to grow:
