I like them - but I guess it also depends on what you're wearing them with

Love them, but won't the Next sale start soon? Can you wait and get them half price?

I've already bought them

it was a very rare impulse buy, normally I am a grumpy bastard and tight-fisted to boot

but they sort of called to me across the shop floor

and I bought a nice wide-brimmed hat as well

what colour toenails do you think? Pink is the obvious, but I am tempted by pearly leafy green too

I'd go for the green nail polish.

oh no.....don't go for pearly green nail polish on your toes - you will look like you have some kind of nail bed fungal infection.

Pink would be lovely. Oh and I have coveted those sandals myself - they did them last year in plain diamante but those are so pretty with the pink tones

BTW, the next sale starts on Saturday 18th so would have been too late for your holiday anyway.

Have fun!

To me they look like 6 year old bridesmaid shoes. Sorry!
