Want some shoes to wear with new dress that look pretty but slightly funky rather than overly dressy.

Does your Top SHop have shoes? Ours does (brag). If so they do v fashionable rip offs of designer shoes.

Lisalisa - neigghhhhhhhhhhhhh

Top shop do shops now, and new look do copius amounts of plastic, sweaty feet shoes.

Glad I'm not the only one to say no to the gold leather.

Enid · 26/05/2005 14:50

did have a quick look yesterday

will look again

I have spent sooooooooooo much money on clothes this month - have a weekend of events that I have organised so have to look nice though.

dh will go mad if he sees the state of my finances.

also about to have expensive haircut

Clarks do loads of nice shoes too though.

Just not gold espadrilles.

Hope you find something.

Tell him in a L'Oreal type of a way and a shake of your (expensive) new hair that you are worth it.

Good luck on the shoe hunt, I have to pretend to do some work, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ta ta.

But I still end up in my Birks from yonks ago.

Fio2 · 26/05/2005 15:24

northerner · 26/05/2005 15:25

Blimey Oliveoil stop bragging.

We've got lots of vvv expensive boutiques, Russel & bromley, clarks and barrats. And that's it. Unless we go to Leeds.

My town is pants for shopping.

northerner · 26/05/2005 15:26

Whaaaaaaat?!!!!! Are you preg?

expatinscotland · 26/05/2005 15:27

If your legs are tan and your toes pedicured, yeah! Go for it!

oliveoil · 26/05/2005 15:41

I am not preggers! I did a thread about being late, and did a test and it was neg and then the old AF arrived today. Now if you had bothered to read said thread.....sniff...being ignored...flounce.

Anyway, back to shoes. Or work for me. Till 4pm anyway.

northerner · 26/05/2005 15:48

Oh must have missed that thread. Not being mumsnetting as much recently. Everyone ignores me too so I wouldn't worry.

oliveoil · 26/05/2005 15:53

MAKE SURE IT IS IN CAPITALS

tee hee.

northerner · 26/05/2005 15:56

I've started hanging out on the runners thread. They are lovely over there.

motherinferior · 26/05/2005 15:56

Oh go for it. I can't wear heels at all as I have feet like flat flippers and I can't wear most Clarks as they are miniscule size 3 flat flippers so I think you should act out all my fantasies, so to speak.

I need a new haircut too

marthamoo · 26/05/2005 16:01

I say no to gold shoes too - think they're tacky...sorry.

But I have horse fodder wedge espadrilles so what do I know?

marthamoo · 26/05/2005 16:01

You have size 3 feet, mif? Awwwwwww...sweet.

bundle · 26/05/2005 16:06

i have silver shoes, moo!
