Have you bought them yet? I am being tempted by these at the minute, but I did all my serious boot buying last year and don't really need any more this year.
I haven't. Hang on a minute. Right, I have now :) Hopefully they'll fit; I'm an 8 1/2, and mostly 8s fit me, but sometimes it's the 9 that does the trick...
Those look rather cool, but I know what you mean. I have rather too many shoes (well, for a straight bloke, anyway), but I don't have much in the way of boots for the winter, and these are so funky looking...
Nice boots! Hope they're as comfy on as they look.
I caved in today and gave into the lure of 15% off at Boden. In a silly number of weeks the turquoise long cord coat I have lusted after will be mine. If I'd ordered it when the lust started I'd have it by now, but I'd have missed out on the discount and free delivery. Guess them's the breaks.
They were a perfect fit, and comfortable as soon as I had them on. Life is good :)
Mmm. Long cord coats. I also have a bit of a coat problem, to go with my shoes problem, and I don't really have the space in my little flat for all the coats I've already got. Maybe it's time for a clear-out...
Oohhh... The instantly comfortable footwear feeling! How did you resist immediately ordering a pair in evrey colour?
Maybe it's time for a clear-out...
I do continual small clear-outs these days, instead of the weekend-eating, skip-requiring once or twice a year clear-outs. The little and often approach feels less painful :) I do a wardrobe check if I buy a new jumper, to see if there are old jumpers that won't be worn again and put them in the charity shop bag in the spare room. However this approach is foiled when you encounter an old, scruffy well-loved item.
Hmm. I'd been developing a reasonable habit of doing regular minor clear-outs, but it seems to have ground to a halt. Still, I did finally get around to taking a lot of stuff to a charity shop last weekend, so now would be a good time to re-start filling up the hallway again...
Oh, and as for how I resisted immediately ordering a pair in every colour -- they only sell them in black, so I already have :)
