I was looking for a pair of white or light blue special occasion shoes for my ds. For his cousins birthday party.
There is a little boutique in town that sells baby clothes so i went there. As soon as i entered the lady offered me help so i explained that i needed shoes to go with an outfit for a birthday party. She showed me an outfit she had in the sale that would fit my ds, i said i didn't need an outfit and i didn't really like the style of that one (or price lol). She replied that she likes it - that's why she has the shop. Oops.
So she got out some shoes, after telling her ds needs a size 21, she brought size 19 and size 22 because she had no 21s. So i tried the 22 just in case, but they were huge. She suggested that i buy them anyway because by the time the 'WEDDING' comes (birthday party) his feet will have grown, it is 2 weeks away. I said no thanks but i might pop back in.
Now i know it was a little boutique and not a shop that fits shoes or measures feet, but surely for 33 pounds, the shoe should be the right size?
Gah, i just like a rant really. Theres no where else in this small town to buy the kind of shoes i wanted so i will probably need to go back anyway.
