Am finding just what I'm wanting at Oasis, this Spring. Just got some new sunnies and this little bag for hols.
As justification, I've scarcely bought anything to wear over the winter. My everyday handbag was a BN River Island one from the Help the Aged for £3 and this little one will suit me for many occasions over the summer and DD will use it too I'm sure and it's the softest butteriest leather which will last for ever................do I need to keep on justifying ?? (Cos I can if you want!!!)

Hi there, hope all you wise ones can help me ;-) I'm 5ft 2 inches and am in desperate need of some fairly comfortable heeled shoes to go with jeans and skirts for the spring, too small to wear flatties but also need to have something to make running after my 3 boys not tooooo difficult - am I asking too much?
TIA

Hi Macca
I don't think you're too short for flats - exactly the same height as me and I wear them all the time! Do you know what sort of colour and/or style you want? I'm inclined to say wedges for a bit of added height and cos they're easier than normal heels to run round in.0 -

perhaps its me then and my stocky legs I just seem to walk differently in flats - and its not elegant!!! Wedges sound good - something feminine - purple or silver or something neutral would be good.

Well I took the bike and rode majorly fast, an then got to town and felt really faint
then remembered all I've eaten today is a bowl of cornflakes about 7am :-/ so that may be why lol
But I did hav a quick look around the shops before they closed, and picked up a few lovely things lol and saw a couple of gorgeous laura Ashley dresses, but at £100 each my budget didn't quite stretch to them!0
