I have a confession ...

I am so bad and so naughty but I bought something! AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHH I almost hate myself for it but equally I was always a rule breaker!

It's just too much to be sat playing on Avenue 57 and going to different places to find out where tops, dresses and bottoms are from and so when someone mentioned FOR THE 856th time about these bloody real leather tan sandals from Tesco I couldn't resist clicking to look - and therein lies my failure of the 100 day spending ban. I didn't even buy the tan sandals (out of stock in my size) but I did buy these




I know already what I'm wearing with these if they fit and are ok - I know it's faux suede and I know they won't last but for £12 it's worth a punt don't you think?

They are due to arrive next week so I guess if they are cheap in real life as they are in price and if I do end up returning them then that's ok right? I can be forgiven?

Here is the tan version of the pink I wanted and everyone is raving about - aren't they gorgeous?



I wish I'd put these in too - I am actually sad that if I was breaking rules I was going to do it in style!





So let's skip over very quickly the fact that I have been incredibly naughty and I promise to punish myself later. Here's what I wore yesterday and today.

Dress - Room 31 - old
Shoes - M&S - old


Scarf - Mine but still available here
Jumper - Mine but still available here
Jeans - Tesco and have never fitted before - hoorah!
Shoes - Deichmann (swapped for lovely navy Hunter Wellies because it was raining for Sports Day)


So, have you ever denied yourself anything and did you succeed? I am so lame, I know I am you don't need to tell me!

  3. You're forgiven! Would've been rude not to, Fiona! I bought the tan studded ones yesterday from my local Tesco - there were only 2 pairs left and amazingly one pair was my size! I was so pleased as I tried them a couple of weeks ago and talked myself out of buying them then so I really didn't deserve to find them again. Enjoy wearing the pink ones - they're fab and you'll stand out from the crowd! Lynne x

    1. I am so jealous you have the tan ones - I hope the pink are ok but I reckon they'll go back!

      I have high hopes for the blue and pink cork heels!

      Thank you for not telling me off!!

  6. Well I suppose I'm going to have to 'fess up too, just bought a dress for summer wedding! In my defence it will do two of the three wedding and was a need rather than a want! But I don't blame you, I go a bit do- lally over leather shoes at ridiculous prices! Are u back on the wagon now though, or have u scrapped it altogether?!

  7. I can see why you came undone with those stud flats, from a distance they could almost pass as the Valentino ones which are about 600 quid, so in a way you have saved a fortune if that makes you feel better!

    1. I wish it did but there is NO WAY ON THIS PLANET I could EVER spend £60 let alone £600 on a pair of sandals .. !

      I shall deal with the guilt tonight and hope that they are all crap, back in the box and back to the store so I can carry on!
