i hate to shop for shoes
don’t get me wrong, i love shoes but i have the most difficult time finding the right ones.
really, i just hate to shop…..
i do…i hate shopping….but i love finding stuff.
send me out for anything, anything and i can pretty much bet you that i will not be able to find the NEEDED item.
but take me shopping for nothing, just shopping for the fun of it….watch out…i will FIND more stuff i need, tons of stuff in my size, great deals, things that will match other things, gifts for other people, you name it.
i’ve been looking for the perfect pair of brown boots for the fall season. i had not seen them anywhere but in my head (that was probably the 1st problem). you know the ones…they had low heels, if any, they’re not tight, i could wear them with skirts, maybe some handknits leg-warmers or “toppers” poking out.
just when i had given up i saw them!!! in the J.Jill catalog—-well, all was not good. they were on back order, then back order again and yet again. the people from J.Jill kept emailing me with a new, later date. Sundance catalog has some boots that fit the bill but i don’t want to pay, i think it was $230.00. finally i decided, I NEED SOME BOOTS—TODAY! so i did not allow myself to leave DSW without boots.
i love DSW because you can scan that place in 2 seconds, which i did, and declared that there were no boots for me. but i NEEDED boots today so i decided to have a further look. i tried on 3 pair that could work and did come home with a pair that i must say, will work. but they are not the boots that were in my head and because i’m not a footwear designer and i can’t knit boots……..booties but not boots, these will have to do.
it’s officially cold here tonight, i think i will wear my new boots with a jean skirt to work tomorrow. oh…i did FIND a few other things at the mall too :) well, what were you expecting?
