  • ooh, i've got some from moda in pelle too, honestly never wore them as they are so high I would do some serious damage to myself! but they were pretty and in the sale so what the hell! and I wonder why im in debt?!
    Yep these are the ones she wears in the advert, and i've been holding back for the past 4 weeks- I got a blue pair about 3 months ago and STILL haven't worn them yet, so everyone kept telling me I didn't NEED another blue pair- but what the hell do they know! Theres another pair i'm lusting after in work tho and they're blue as well- think I may have a bit of an addiction. oh well!

    Well if were all eyeing up the pretty shoes, I bought these today...

    Its the blue ones, I work at Next so I get discount off all the pretty shoes that they have in at the minute! I just keep getting the box out and stroking them, they are so pretty...
    I do love the peep toe ones you bought-im a sucker for an open toe! And what a bargain- I never look for shoes in House Of Fraser, don't know why?:confused:
    Just getting ready for X factor with my new shoes, a glass of red Jaques, and a Gu chocolate cheesecake...who needs men, eh?

    :j:j wow they are lovely! I'm loving Next shoes at the moment, have bought the square toe black patent ones, and am lusting after the zebra print ankle boots :D
    Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!

  • They've all had a nice little trip around my living room with my red sleepyhead pjs so they all have had a nice little outing!
    Have you worn the square toe ones yet? Love them in the pink and the blue but they feel painful when I even try them on so not sure...
    Just got in some black patent shoes today with a round toe, a zip up the front and cut out bits on the side- I love zips at the minute, god knows why!They make my feet look tiny, but *luckily* the size 6 was just a tiny bit too small and we haven't got a 6 1/2 in yet so I didn't have to buy them!
  • Well done on the weight loss! are you following a specific diet or trying to healthy eat? Feeling chunkier myself at the minute but lacking motivation to do anything about it.

    Hi ladies free-random-smileys-838.gif

    Sorry to crash your thread but I'm after some advice & I think you may all be best placed to give it...
    I desperately need an eye make-up remover that works on mascara! I know, it's hardly dealing with world poverty or anything but I'm sick of looking like a panda when technically it should all be off :o

    Any tips/brands/suggestions v.gratefully appreciated :)

    ps.am loving all the shoes... :D

    I have worn them a couple of times - they are definately style over comfort :rolleyes: but I have worn more painful shoes. Actually, I bought the brown distressed ones with the studs a couple of weeks ago in the sale - and they really crush my toes after a while :o

    I'm loving zips at the moment, I like all the dresses and tops with exposed zips :D

    Personally I use Nivea Visage liquid (not the creamy one) and find it really good as I have sensitive eyes and a lot of others are too harsh :D
