My fifth confession: I bought six pairs of shoes in London. I have transitioned from being a stiletto woman to a ballet flats girl...there is just something about being chic in comfort that ruffles my feathers. So before flying across the sea for my week long holiday in London, I did a little comparative research for just the right pair of flats at just the right price, and I found this adorable pair of t-straps from the department store Debenhams.
I visited the Oxford Street location on my very first day in the city, but I did not find the shoes, so I settled for a brown pair of bow flats, and well, to my pleasant surprise, there was a massive shoe sale, so I also bought a pair of black flats, as well as some adorable silver mary jane flats.
I should have been satisfied, right? I mean, three pairs of leather flats, fashionable, and all under 60 pounds! But, I couldn't stop there! No, later in the week, I determined to find my red t-straps, and find them I did, as well as a great pair of oxford style ballets and some gold slippers, as well...my husband was writhing in astonishment as I brazenly tore open my handbag to thrust my plastic across the counter to the prim British sales clerk.
So, I never considered myself to be a shoe fiend, but perhaps my time abroad has altered my condition!
London is a scary city for shopaholickers! First time I went there, I bought 13 pair of shoes, and second time I bought 6 pairs. Scaaary city!

ReplyDeleteI love the black ones with the little bow on top. They all look nice though.
