weeeeel.
i was going to say..... madrids. white for summer. obviously. end of.
but..... am strangely drawn to those white patent molinas.......i think its the patentness of them that gives them a bit of an update......

expatinscotland · 09/06/2007 23:21

NOT birkies.

Eeewwww.

None.

They're naff.

Okay choosing creates anxiety

anxiety is bad

therefore stop choosing

buy both

controlfreaky2 · 09/06/2007 23:23

Ha ha I would have been disappointed if expat hadn't said that!

Controlfreaky2 that is exactly my dilemma, I normally just buy madrids and always have a white pair on the go but the molinas are good in a different kind of way.

Like your thinking quattro but am worried the anxiety may be then transferred to my bank account?!

I've got some lovely Hush Puppy sandals. JoolsToo found them last year and I went and bought some.

They're COOL!

controlfreaky2 · 09/06/2007 23:39

expatinscotland · 09/06/2007 23:40

They're cooler than Birks which are soooo rank.

brimfull · 09/06/2007 23:41

controlfreaky2 · 09/06/2007 23:42

controlfreaky2 · 09/06/2007 23:43

yeah, like she said. real proof.

expatinscotland · 09/06/2007 23:43

Here, let me see if I can find 'em.

Oh, shit! I'm drunk. They're here at my feet.

I tell a lie. They're LaRedoute.

They're black leather.

I wore 'em today cuz I painted my toenails last night.

I don't wear sandals w/o painted toenails.

I usually wear heels if they're sandals, though.

Yes.

expatinscotland · 09/06/2007 23:43

These have a 3cm heel. Pretty short.

brimfull · 09/06/2007 23:44

Defo the black kimono.

My name is Coleyboy, and I am an addict. I have 8 pairs of birkies, and scored my last hit on Tuesday when I orderd a white pair of gizeh's!
