What do you think of these? I think they are v cool, but dh can't see it. Have I suffered a serious lapse in judgement?

Yes.
But what do I know?
I am probably only jealous because they do not make them in my size Sad

Aranea · 08/10/2010 22:19

Oh, no. Sob. Does this mean I have to trust dh's judgement??? Surely not. Back me up someone!

I am also 50.
You are probably young and frivolous.

Aranea · 08/10/2010 22:22

Um. Am pushing 40, so not actually all that young. Dunno about frivolous. I tend to buy one thing that I feel confident in and then wear it to death.

noo, they are just trying to hard methinks.

deaddei · 08/10/2010 22:26

Meant that you're funloving and fashionable....it's been a long day. And I am not drinking.

Aranea · 08/10/2010 22:27

I am going to have to prevent dh from reading over my shoulder. He is now cackling with laughter. It is most annoying. I am going to sulk and go to bed now. Humph.

Hello cyb!
I am going shopping in Kingston tomorrow, mainly to go to Patisserie Valerie. Smile

Aranea · 08/10/2010 22:34

Try Hotter shoes.

cyb · 08/10/2010 22:58

dead is that the posh one down by Laura Ashley?

deaddei · 09/10/2010 13:39

Yes.
Just come back from there- I resisted the creamy cakes and just had a coffee. Lovely.
They do fab lunches.
I bought boots, a handbag and primer. Saw a nice coat in Bentalls but need to do an inventory of coats to see what I need.
I never seem to have the right coat.

doglover · 09/10/2010 15:51

Sorry ....... but they're really horrible ... just weird.

cyb · 09/10/2010 18:51

dead are you on twitter? If not, you should be

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 09/10/2010 19:17

Blimey, they really are horrid....sorry, but you did ask!

HecateQueenOfWitches · 09/10/2010 19:20

Each to their own but I don't like them.

They're the sort of thing a kid would wear, not a grown woman.

Or maybe, well, they're just trainers aren't they? So maybe with jeans? If you really really like them and want to have them.

TheGoddessBlossom · 09/10/2010 19:24

sorry. Just wrong. Was tempted to say they are nice to help you win against husband but couldn't bring myself to....Confused

Aranea · 09/10/2010 19:52

I am quite astonished by how universal the disapproval is! Wow. I can't stop laughing.

Even DH didn't dislike them that much!

OP posts:
minipie · 09/10/2010 19:55

If they were flat, I'd like them. Does that help?

(really not keen on trainers with heels though and these fit that category)

deaddei · 10/10/2010 13:43

Cyb- I do not even know what twitter is (old fogey face)
