We didn't plan to buy footwear but Ella has been deliberating over buying her first pair of Dr Martens for some time, worried that they would make her feet look huge. When we came across a Dr Martens shop we agreed she should try a pair on for fun. Walking up and down the shop in them she said, 'Drat, I love them!' Her feet have been the same size for the last two or three years so we reckoned they have stopped growing. My daughter is so much cooler than I was at her age!
I certainly didn't expect to buy anything in there myself but then spotted the boots of my dreams! Wow, so comfortable! I rarely treat myself but with Ella's encouragement we both walked out of there with big brown paper bags and big smiles all round!
Cool boots - and comfy too!
ReplyDeleteVery pleased with mine even though I am too old and not cool enough for Ella's purple ones! A friend of mine still has a pair from when she was 15 and that was 25 years ago! She wears them too! Though not with the Laura Ashley dresses anymore!
DeleteI still have a pair of black Dr Marten Mary Janes I bought years ago - they make my size 7's look even bigger but I looove them. I'm sure yours and Ella's will be just as well loved x Jane
ReplyDeleteWow. I'm impressed. Mary Janes sound lovely. Ella is size 7 but they seem to be quite flattering. I take an 8 or 9 depending on the shoe so the chunky styles are definitely out for me!
