Sexy or tacky ?.....
Last wednesday I met up with my friend Ellie for a quick coffee and as we parted, I told her I needed to go to the florist shop down the main street of the village. I was thinking about red roses and instead of going straight to the florist, I entered the shoe shop next to it and heard myself saying : "holà, quiero unos tacones altissimos...en rojo" (hi, I want very high heels..in red).
And this is what I came up with....
And this is what I came up with....
mmm....I think I made a mistake...luckily they were very cheap. But I'm afraid they are also very cheap in the other meaning of the term. At least, Monchéri laughed. He found them...interesting and different from the boots I usually wear. You see, lately this has been my preferred uniform. (I've got the same velvet trousers in several colors and wear them all the time. sorry about the pic taken halfway in the shade)
still I think perhaps one day, I'll wear the sexy/tacky red boots...but I love my black boots so much...life is tough isn't it ? (am standing in front of a stained mirror, hence the black spots)
talking about shoes....isn't this one a darling ? My friend Tim took this photograph which you can find on his etsy shop here. (do you remember the picture of the flamenco dress ? that was Tim too....do have a look at his shop !). And my banner, it's Tim too....
Mis queridos, my lovelies, I'm afraid I'll be very flighty this week
as my friends and I are busy little bees preparing our outfit
for a fancy dress party this coming saturday.

ps : I can't leave comments on some blogs where a word verification is asked (Cynthia, Khaled et al..) So annoying ! Does anyone have the same problem ?

Hopped over to Tim Irving's etsy shop. He's very talented.
I've had the same issue with the word thingy .. I couldn't see the word to type it in - it was very annoying. I finally figured out that if I do the Preview option to preview the comment, and from there click to submit or post, I can then see the word. Hope it helps you too. :)
Enjoy preparing for the party!
and cheap can become ooh la la and darn chic if worn by the right person..:)
all the best for the party!:)
Greetings from London.
Hope you have lots of fun at the fancy dress party..:)
Un abrazo
Las botas negras me ENCANTAN!!! Y sales muy guapa en las fotos... la floristería granadina tiene mucho carácter!
I continue totally in love, as you recommend... in fact, this week is our first wedding anniversary!
Look forward to checking out your party outfit... I am sure it will be FAB!
