My parents are coming across in June. And I . . .I know I shouldn't. It's wrong. But . . .

I want to have these shoes sent to their house to bring across.

omg these are gorgeous expat

expatinscotland · 04/05/2006 09:42

I like 'em in black, but they have them in 'paprika' and brown as well.

Oooo. Look sooo cool w/a skirt or with skinny jeans.

ooh

tell me about it, stud

nailpolish · 04/05/2006 09:44

LOL MP! you always make me larf

Nbg · 04/05/2006 09:48

Right

I am officially telling you all off for starting so many shoe threads.

It is not fair.

Especially when they are heels.

You bad horrible people.

Stop it otherwise I will spend all the money I have been given for my birthday.

[whispers, yes they are very gorgeous Expat]

expatinscotland · 04/05/2006 09:50

These are cheap, tho! And they're real leatha, too.

What's wrong w/heels? Heels are your friend! Especially when you're 5ft., 3 in. like me.

They are lovely and a total bargain, I mean if you only wore then twice you would have gotten excellent value for money!!

Nbg · 04/05/2006 09:54

Not when your pg!

It's torture looking at all the pretty shoes.

When this baby is born, I am going to buy the mother of all heels.

expatinscotland · 04/05/2006 09:55

No, really, Ravel has some patent leather slingbacks I saw flipping thru a magazine (and then not buying it:o) that have a raffia heels AND a red sole like Laboutins.

THAT is drool.

OP posts:
Nbg · 04/05/2006 09:55

Oh lordy

They do them in Brown and Red too!!!

expatinscotland · 04/05/2006 09:57

Yes, but I think the reds aren't real leatha.

The brown are nice, too, but . . . arrggh!

DH scored two pairs of trainers on there for about £30 - and both leather. He really needed them, though, b/c he wears them to work.

I know this shop and their stuff is quality.

Thats crap then.

Oooh brown or black, brown or black, whats it to be?????????????

I'm just scanning the site to tempt you with lots of other yumm stuff.

expatinscotland · 04/05/2006 10:03

My mum ordered me the black slip on mules by Cherokee, some kitten heeled black slingbacks and another pair of slides that look like trainers.

K, I changed my mind, I think I'll go w/the brown ones.

OP posts:
Nbg · 04/05/2006 10:04

Theres a 2-6 week wait on the black ones.

expatinscotland · 04/05/2006 10:06

Yeah, that's the crap part. She's got a Target near enough to her. I'm going to see if she can't snag a pair in person. She'll probably wind up getting some for herself, too. We're the same size in clothes and shoes - and she's 65 in three weeks, isn't that disgusting?

I hope you get them. They are lovely.

expatinscotland · 06/05/2006 21:39

THEY'RE MINE, MINE, MINE! My mum found 'em in my size in brown in her local Target yesterday and got 'em for me.

One month till I'm united w/some very cool slingbacks. YES!

ScummyMummy · 06/05/2006 21:50

Oh good.:) they're lush, epis.

Frenchgirl · 06/05/2006 21:53

oh these are gorgeous expat

and at least they'll stop you from wearing those awful green clogs Grin

can I have a pair in brown please?

expatinscotland · 06/05/2006 21:56

Blush :o

I wore the clogs today. W/a lovely jean skirt and a stripey top.

SO cool!

I like these heels a lot, though.

My mum did, too. She bought a pair for herself in black.

OP posts:
Frenchgirl · 06/05/2006 21:59

OK, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt with the clogs, they don't sound that bad and I've had enough wine to not be so anal about them Grin

Nbg · 06/05/2006 22:00
Grin

Can you wait a month?

expatinscotland · 06/05/2006 22:04

I'd have to, Nbg, b/c the brown ones are only available online in small boat size - WAY too big for my feet. About a UK size 8.

Oh, Mama sent me a photo of her wearing hers. They look VERY lovely w/her tailored trousers . . .

I'm Envy

Your mum sounds rather glam expat!

Love that you call her Mama Grin

expatinscotland · 07/05/2006 10:50

B/c she is 'Mama' in Spanish. Sometimes I call her Mamacita, but she doesn't really like it.
