I don't remember if I ever mentioned in my journal that I fell in love with a pair of shoes some months ago.
I've been inside the shoe shop a few times since I first saw them... and have been standing outside, drooling, more than once. I've tried them on, on two occasions. And really, really wanted these expensive and not very practical shoes... like, a lot!
I don't think I've ever fallen in love with a pair of shoes like that ever before!
But, I thought they were too expensive. So, I never bought them. But last time I was there, I told my mum that if they're still there next time I walk in, I'm meant to have them, and I'll buy them. Today, we passed the shop, and I stopped, trying to see through the window if they were still there. Couldn't see them. :( But mum has been looking for new shoes for autumn, and so we went inside.
I looked at a few other pairs. Tried them on... they were nothing like the ones I wanted. But on a whim, I looked over in the corner, where they usually only have snake skin shoes (real and fakes)... And guess what! My shoes! They were there!11!!!1one! :-D
... and there was much rejoicing.
Tried them on. My size. They're still gorgeous. The shop clerk asked if I hadn't been there before to look at them, and said she thought she recognised me when I nodded. Ooops? *g*
This time I tried them both on, so I could walk in them. And they are a dream! I mean, they are very high heeled, but you don't notice it! So comfortable, and so easy to walk in. My feet were so light! Apparently, it's some kind of copy of an YSL design, due to offices of designers being next door or something like that... Well-made, in Italy, I think, so no hasty Chinese product, this.
Umm... so, since I had said that if they were still there next time, and this actually was the "next time", I had to buy them. :-D And, a few days ago, I found a coupon for 10% off for this particular shop! It was an omen, y/y?
And OMG! aasdfghjkllhfd!!!!! *hugs them* My shoes! So...
( My shoes, let me show you them! )
