OMG, heels are banned?! i'd go crazy!

Cheers hun

Aye, it's a historic building and heels damage the floors. I can get away with wedges in the summer and chunky heeled boots are ok but "proper" heels are a no-no.

Hi guys,

not bene for any one in the Westcountry, I was at clarks shoppig village recently and there is a dive pair of wel reduced purple leather boots in the Benneton shop, I am VERY fussy about boots, and find few pass the lostinrates test of perfect balance and style, and these are dive, but a size 35, and I decided that they are not worth cutting my toes off for. Someone should grab them though, they are super (and if anyone goes in they most certainly are NOT the sude flats I'm talking about but the leather heels).


I've been awol but I'm back.

I bought some clothes in saes, but decided to buy in smaller sizes, to give be ambition.

re dresses on tall girls, I'm lucky I'm a good height for British off the peg, but I used to wear a lot of vintage, which comes up VERY short on me (5'5ish) and still can be made to work. So off he peg should work for tall people, if worn well. In dresses of many styles you guys actually probably have many advantages!

Daisy bella, I wore my carosel a lot over the past few weeks and EVERY one has noticed it! I've also redone my jewellery cabinet, (I wsh I could share a picture with you guys) and it looks so lovely in there its in pride of place atm. My jewellery cabinet is a disply cabinet bought at a fleamarket for a fiver, painted at home, and added to. It was very nuetral shades up until last week, and I was offered an awful lot of money for it by a friend of my mothers, but last week I came across a truely audatious find, and its no longer demure and tasteful shades of neutrality but is entirely me, so not selling it at all, and enjoying having smeting truely me. Perhaps I never will be elegant, but I love it!
