After ordering 6 different tops in various shades and patterns of pink I set about trying them all on for The Teenager to give her approval....BIG MISTAKE !!!
These are the comments received for each top:-
Bloody great, what a fat lot of use that was. All tops were then shown to The Husband who confirmed everything The Teenager had said all except Top Number 2 which he strangely loved and asked me not to send back. (Pervert).
As I stood in my bedroom feeling just a twinge of panic The Teenager suddenly produced a beautiful pink silk top from my wardrobe "What about this one....Its still got the tags on it" she said.
God bless her ability to find things in my bedroom that I had forgotten about (not always the case when she has nicked my nail varnish/makeup). I had purchased this top for another friends 40th party last year and hadn't worn it. Yippeeeeeee that was me sorted then. I thought.
After waiting for 2 days I awoke with excitement at the thought that they were coming today. I watched as the delivery man walked slowly up the drive wishing him to walk quicker. Suddenly as if magic they were in my hands and then on my feet.....Oh Sweet Mother Of Jesus I loved them even more than when I first saw them. The Hubby looked on with complete bewilderment as I stood there in my pj's and my new shoes. "Are you sure they aren't a little bit too high darling?". I gave him
The Look that only a woman can give (come on you know the look). Luckily The Teenager jumped to my defence "Dad they are platforms so although they look high they aren't really ". God bless her again.
I continued to wear the shoes all morning even when I had to dust and hoover, I will admit that I do not usually wear shoes quite this high but this is a special occasion.
After showing them to my lovely friend who wears shoes like this all the time and looks amazing in them she showed them to my equally gorgeous heel wearing neighbour who both confirmed my feelings for them. They loved them as much as I did.
I know many of you will understand my feelings for shoes, I normally spend a fortune on the Hubby, kids and house but very rarely do I spend any money on just me. But when it comes to shoes and handbags I just have this weakness that I cannot control.
Lots of love
OMG OMG i need those shoes!!!!!! I am such a fan of shoes too! I actually bought a pair of mega high red stripy shoes last year, i can't wear them mind , i just lay in bed with them on , they look fabulous ;-) You will look amazing in your shoes:-) have a truly wonderful time tonight sweets x x x

DeleteThose are very lovely shoes but coming from a woman who lives in trainers, you are a brave woman! Hope you have a good night x
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely but bloody painful. I dont usually wear heels so it was quite strange xx
DeleteI love, love, love them!!!!!! There's no such thing as too high, especially when you're wearing skinny jeans (although at 6 months pregnant, I'd look pretty ridiculous in both!).
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shoes!!! I want them!! xxx
