  • What do you all do for a living that lets you sit around in your dressing gowns at lunchtime?!

    Do they fit true to size? Do they fit wide or narrow feet would you say? Thanks

    I am standard width feet and I have slim socks in them right now. I could wear thicker walking socks inside though. To be honest I would steer more towards saying that they would be tight if you are someone who takes wide fitting. Fly tend to fit normal/slim feet I think. That's my experience anyway. I'm slim with slim legs and calves (also slim feet) and Fly stuff fits me well.

    Boo indeed! I'd have to take a week off work if I did go out to work for Black Friday. Needs must and all that :D
  • I love that last bit! I'm sat here on sofa, laptop on knee, biker boots on my feet, summer dress on (see previous post) nursing my sore bits and drinking Milo - cats sniffing my boots :eek: lol (wish they'd stop sniffing and settle down already) Mmm Harry Potter? there's a plan!

    Deathly Hallows Part 2 - the shortest and most exciting. Battle of Hogwarts is well and truly on and Malfoy and Harry are about to start battling it out in the room of requirement - oh the drama.

    They are truly beautiful aren't they? I bet they look amazing with the dress - this is genuine - I wear boots with all my summer dresses with woolly tights and thick cardies in the winter.

    Fly are normally a tad tight of first wear but as they are very, very soft leather they have give in them.
  • Core, some people are getting carried away - the one's that feel they have to lie about the price / hide purchases from OHs - doesn't this mean that even you don't believe it was a good bargain?
