am happy to consider sequins, patterns, etc

am in frivolous mood but they MUST be flat and comfy and good for walking

Franny, keep your eyes peeled in Primark as they often do outlandish colours in Converse style rip offs. Cheap as chips too.

FrannyandZooey · 02/03/2008 12:51

ah ah I have sworn self off Primark

still shop at 1 billion other cheap crap places but am trying to draw a small line

I know franny, but even my superior google skills failed to find them

MrsBadger · 02/03/2008 14:27

top right here?

FrannyandZooey · 02/03/2008 14:37

what MrsB the insole? I bought some proper old lady ones as my feet are so naff
but I am confused as to which partic problem they would solve in this case?

Maidamess I will do proper envy when you are
I got my last 2 converse style ones from new Look (that bastion of ethical shopping ) but they don't seem to have done them yet this year

FrannyandZooey · 02/03/2008 18:45

I'm not

I have stated my needs clearly and now we are looking
it seems to be taking some time, is all
AND I bought a random pair of shoes en route, what more can you ask for?

OP posts:
AitchTwoOh · 02/03/2008 18:46

do you still not have a pair of blue shoes, frank? this is reminding me of the skirt thread...

FrannyandZooey · 02/03/2008 18:47

nooooo
it is nothing LIKE the skirt thread
it is a SHOE thread, for a start

OP posts:
Maidamess · 02/03/2008 18:51

FrannyandZooey · 02/03/2008 19:04

OP posts:

expatinscotland · 02/03/2008 19:10

But then, I don't care if they're interesting, only if they're comfortable.
