Today I'm going to tell you a story about some boots. The other day after work I decided to pop into town to get my fringe trimmed and do productive things like pay my water bill, get some shopping in and deposit that cheque that's been sitting in my purse for the last 2 weeks get distracted and spend nearly an hour in New Look trying on shoes.
It was while in New Look I came across these little beauties. Not in the regular shoe section however. Oh no, these bad boys were actually found in the teenage section. I didn't even know New Look had a teenage shoe section, but they do and they stock up to a size 6 (I think - these are a size 5). Even better when I got to the checkout I found out these were actually on sale reduced to only £15!
Boots - New Look (teens)
... Speaking of when I got to the checkout, bit of an embarrassing incident occurred right after the checkout bloke uttered those beautiful words "These are actually reduced you know to only 15 quid" - I looked in my bag and remembered I'd forgotten to put my regular purse into my work bag before I'd left the house that morning (at 6.30am so surprisingly I was in a bit of a tired and not-really-with-it mood). Which meant I didn't have my debit card on me. Which meant I couldn't pay for the shoes. DISASTER! Luckily the lovely bloke at the till (after laughing at me for being such an idiot) said he'd reserve them for me for 24 hours, which meant I was able to pop back the next morning and pick them up. Disaster averted!
I'm so happy I've found them - I've been needing a new pair of tan boots since the heels on my last pair wore away and I had to chuck them out last Autumn (*sob*). These have got a lovely sized wedge on them and they just look so cute on. I'm usually a size 6 in shoes but these are a 5 - luckily New Look shoes tend to be a bit more roomier so they fit me just fine.
This weekend it's Easter bank holiday weekend and while I may not have 4 days off like a lot of people (hate you all by the way) I do have a regular 2 day weekend (hurrah!) which means I'm going on a birthday night out tomorrow night - in Where's Wally fancy dress would you believe. I've got all my outfit ready (thank you eBay) and I'm so excited! Then Sunday night my littlest sister is coming to stop with me while my mum and Stepdad are away so I'll be doing all kinds of fun things to entertain a 9-year-old. I'm thinking pizza and a Disney film of some kind.
How are you spending your Easter weekend?
