I have just been sucked in on Ebay.....

I have bought a pair of Orchid Pink Tall Ugg boots for too much money.

They are bloody cool, however I have nothing to go with them! Most of my clothes are brown and red based!

I am too impulsive. my DH spit his dummy out the pram. (Until I reminded him he crashed the car this morning!)

Why oh why did I look?!!!!!

(hangs head in shame)

have been informed that father xmas was bringing me a pair. Told him, via DH that xmas was too late.

Oh what a child I am!

You could resell them?

southeastastra · 08/11/2007 21:15

some things you just have to have

PavlovtheCat · 08/11/2007 21:17

i have considered both options. I could resell them, but currently have a wardrobe full of things I am going to sell and make a fortune from. They have been there ages!
I am lingering very slightly towards Southeastatra's thinking...I have good faerie and evil faerie here...

I feel awful that DH was going to buy them for me. But xmas is weeks away! and these were pink!

i just got some lairy trainers on ebay. i just had to have them. no logic at all. but they are beautiful

Brown goes with pink, keep them, if you feel really guilty wrap them up and tell DH hes brought your xmas pressie!

southeastastra · 08/11/2007 21:20

and they're mine! mwahh

PavlovtheCat · 08/11/2007 21:21

I am usually so good tho. I am sensible. And the funniest thing...?

I am wearing a really really reat jumper wide v-neck off the shoulder. DH says when he comes in, you look great babe, that the top from Ebay? Yes I say, the Zara one for 99p, bargain eh?!!! Then hit him with my new purchase!!!! hahahaha!

Denny - I like that. And they are not baby pink, they are orchid pink, brighter, darker, cooler!!! You are my evil side working sneakily.

Southeastastra - you are my inspiration!

But they were, far far too much money...could have bought a new pair of brown ones for the same price.

But not the orchid pink ones.

i like the rush, when i suddenly find something i have to have!

i usually see something then have to go back before they're open to buy it. it's insane but fun

PavlovtheCat · 08/11/2007 21:43

I like it too, and usually get a bloody good bargain. I have got a new wardrobe for a good sum of money by sniping and waiting for bad listing times etc, but this one which I overbid on as I got a bid excited! oops cant win them all can we?

We did however, get the coolest kitch sofa-bed in the world for a bargain £140 yesterday, beat the other person at the last minute!!!
