"Liar liar pants on fire!" I cower my head in shame… I SAID I wasn’t doing any sales shopping but then the Christmas money came and the greed was ignited inside of me. But hear me out and my lame-o excuse… Disneyrollergirl reported that Liberty, my most beloved department store, might be in trouble again, with a possibility of closure. I tremble in fear at the mere thought so I resolved to myself that if I was going to be splashing out, I’d do it at Liberty as opposed to over-crowded Selfridges – every little helps et all. Eerily, when the boyf and I did get to Liberty yesterday, it was alarmingly quiet… pleasant… not at all like a sales battleground. That of course makes for an excellent shopping environment for the slightly agoraphobic boyf and me but of course doesn’t bode well if a 75% sale isn’t drawing big crowds in.
Still, I got to work and in the lush lush shoe lounge displayed in an old Cadbury’s wooden glass cabinet were these Miu Miu A/W08 sculpted heel sequinned shoes… 50% off down to ¬£229. A lot of moolah to spend coming from a person who was NOT supposed to be doing the sales. However after researching a bit, to find that these babies cost EUR389 online and at the current DIRE exchange rate (¬£=‚Ǩ… CRAZY…come to London, my Euro friends and have yourself a bargain…), I feel I made a wise decision snapping them up. I was going to be wise and put away say ¬£50 a month when I first saw them back in Feb but clearly that never happened (ditto for a pair of Prada wing shoes too…) so this was the last ditch attempt. Oh, and the boyf did much to encourage me by saying "You will weep if you don’t get them…". Yes, I would have wept a little. He is ringing in the death of my bank account… I’m plotting revenge by taking him to Shop at Bluebird today and making him buy something obsene…
