I think I look smashing today! And no-one had the chance to comment or contradict given that I got all dressed up (knowing perfectly well this was all I would do!) to stay in my room, watch Netflix, eat a chocolate orange and colour Marvel characters pink in my colouring book. It was a nice day really!
This was also the perfect opportunity to help wear-in my new Docs! I finally bought them on my holiday; I popped into the store to look at their sale and walked out with a pair and a large receipt, which I maintain represents an investment. I had previously murmured and ummmed and errred about getting a pair. I went into the shop and browsed and questioned if I should get a pair of tan boots which would be my work shoes forever, or some nice forever winter shoes. I saw this colour in Schuh and I loved it. It's not patent, but it's a vibrant red like my red lipstick. I now figure that because they're so bright they will go with nearly everything I own. Red goes well with blue, green, tans and browns and basically I will wear them with everything regardless... Then a month later the Doc shop had the colour and my size on sale and I had enough courage to nab them! I am excited for our future, if not the breaking-in process or the heartbreak of impending scuffs.
