To think that if you pay £325 for children's shoes then you can't complain if they get scuffed?

Gold medal winning sadface here. The mother does seem to have made a career out of this sort of publicity but seriously, kids are tough on their clothes and shoes. If you're not happy with that then don't spend over £300 on a pair!!

to be paid by 01/02/2017 before I take this higher

Which higher authority would that be? The playdate police?

gunsandbanjos · 06/01/2017 17:53

I thought the idea of models is that they're meant to be attractive?

QueenLaBeefah · 06/01/2017 17:53

The whole thing just seems completely made up.

Isitjustmeorisiteveryoneelse · 06/01/2017 17:53

'Before I take this higher' - who to? God? Manolo Blahnik?

She can spend her money as she likes. She likes to spend very foolishly. No way should the other woman pay her a penny I thought it was going to be Katie Hopkins

Stupid woman has completely alienated her DD.

poor little girl

I would be annoyed if a child destroyed or damaged my kids clothing on purpose - even the primark ones - and would expect the mum to acknowledge and apologise if that happen in front of us, but this is ridiculous. Kids play, and things happen. That little girl won't have any friends.

(a child started throwing paint a my toddler, and when I told him gently to stop because mine was crying about the paint in his eyes, his mum told me that he was wearing the wrong clothes for a playgroup. That was wrong)

SnatchedPencil · 06/01/2017 17:58

Utterly ridiculous. If you can afford to spend that amount of money on shoes - for a child ffs - then you really don't need to be worrying about that amount of money. Next she'll be suing the council because she got a bit of mud on her shoes after it had been raining.

MadisonMontgomery · 06/01/2017 17:59

I don't believe that dress is made of pubic hair, it's far too long.

Fairylea · 06/01/2017 17:59

Surely this can't be real? Hmm only an idiot would buy their child such expensive shoes and then moan when they get scuffed.

And a pubic hair dress?! Urghh. Absolutely gross. Shock

BratFarrarsPony · 06/01/2017 18:01

anyway she must have found some people with really long straight and luxuriant pubes to donate for that dress...have a look..do people really have pubes like that?

PerspicaciaTick · 06/01/2017 18:02

The same woman has also had an article where she had scribbled over her child's shoes in order to make them look better.

She is a very odd person.

Megatherium · 06/01/2017 18:03

She describes herself as a “designer, actress, blogger and public figure”. The term "public figure" says it all.

Deadsouls · 06/01/2017 18:04

🤦🏻‍♀️

BurningBridges · 06/01/2017 18:08

Do we know how much her house is worth yet?

Deadsouls · 06/01/2017 18:08

Horrendous publicity seeking. I love the bit in her letter where she says if the money isn't paid by 1st February she'll be taking it 'higher'.
What like to the police? Or small claims court. She'd be laughed out of the place.
Poor child.

megletthesecond · 06/01/2017 18:09

'Playdate police' 😂

MetallicBeige · 06/01/2017 18:09

"Fashion Designer"?

Riiiiiight.

GlitterIsTheEnemy · 06/01/2017 18:09

Is there no other news at all in Birmingham that the shoes story has made it twice!!?

Floggingmolly · 06/01/2017 18:10

She describes herself as a public figure... She may actually be insane, God love her Hmm

WaitrosePigeon · 06/01/2017 18:11

Designer Grin

CommunionHelp · 06/01/2017 18:11

Bloody idiot.

JennyOnAPlate · 06/01/2017 18:12

What a twat. I'm ashamed to live in the same city as her!
