I am shoesius maximus shoesius....

Sorry, couldn't resist.

So, I was in two minds about the Gladiator Sandal. On one hand, there's no doubt that they are a sexy shoe, easy to wear in the summer, and it's fab to get a pair of flats that are, well, exciting. (for me the only reason to wear flats is because heels would be totally impractical. Totally impractical mind you, not just a little bit impractical. If the situation is a little impractical, the pain is usually worth it).

On the other hand, as every lady should know, if you don't happen to be a size 8 (US 4) and your legs are anything less than perfect, an ankle strap generally gets you a one way ticket to Stubby land.

In the end, these lovelies from TopShop won out.

It was the navy that did it I think. As a Spring, I don't wear black, (Seriously, no black at all - happy to talk about this in more detail if anyone's interested), and navy is surprisingly difficult to come by, especially in a shoe. In anycase, I have already worn these lots, stubby legs be damned.

P.S. yes, that is nails inc. Sloan Avenue on my tootsies.

Sorry Sorry Sorry!

I have many, many reasons why I haven't blogged, but I've always felt that one reason is reason enough, any more and they're just excuses.

So I'll spare the excuses. Can't believe that I've not only neglected the blog, but also the people who took the time to read it and comment. Apologies, I shall be a good EmilyJ from now on.

In anycase, although I may not have been a good blogger, I have been a good shopper and made some lovely purchases since last blogging. (Seriously now, it's been months, of course I have shopped.)

Struggling to find pictures at the moment, so will have to do my own bit of photography I think, so will be back post-haste with shopping related goodies!
