I Love my Boots!

Yay my bargain M&S boots got their second outing today for a kid's birthday party.   I am so pleased with them.  For £35 I feel they have really woken up my look, black boots would only heighten my negative mood with this ridiculous whether we are having.  I paid more for my jeans and coat!  Good old M&S and their sales.  My only slight grumble is that they are a rather hard suede and dig in my ankle when I walk.  However I may be being slightly unfair as this is only my second wear, and both have been short times so they probably need breaking in some more.  Either way, the slight discomfort will be endured as they are worth it!

Teamed with my favourite Topshop Baxter jeans 

Another one of my bargains, my FCUK coat from Bicester Village last year, £60 and worn loads!

My wish list item this week - some bling sandals!  Yes, just to rub it in, I am heading to where the sunshines is in approximately 9.5 weeks (who's counting?!).  I live in sandals like these, with a strap between the toes in the warmer months.  My selection are rather plain though and who says bling isn't for every day wear?  At £28 and real leather, I may be giving these a go when Warehouse do another 25% off discount.

Friends is the Right Places - Thank You Jo Jo! x

When I want something I can't get - I'm like a woman possessed.  My poor friends and family get 'SOS' emails with price, style name/number, stores near them, all the details until I find what I want.  When time was less of an issue for me, I would actually call around stores across the UK to get exactly what I wanted.  (I still have a Christmas tree in Bournemouth that was 75% off, sorry Lizzie, I will come and get it).  So after I waited online for the M&S sale last Tuesday and found that some of my lovely readers who are size 3.5's had obviously ignored my warning that these babies were mine, they were sold out in seconds.  So the following day I was on a mission.  Poor Jo who happens to work very close to the Metro Centre was sent a text to get in there ASAP for me.  By Monday (yesterday) they are with me!  I really do have fab friends.  £65 down to £35 - I LOVE!

My only question is - do I cut that strap at the back?  Does it make them a little 'cowboy'?  I've worn them already today as I've been poorly so they were the perfect pick me up, amazing what a new pair of shoes can do for you!  I will leave the strap on for a while as once I cut it, there's no going back.  Did anyone else manage to get any of Marks and Spencer's fabulous shoes in their sale?

PS Kurt Geiger sale starts on line midnight tonight!
