Lacing Up

This came in the mail yesterday:

Thank you Imelda Matt! I had a browse through the Zu website and this took my fancy.


At the store the salesgirl could not believe that a voucher for 60% off actually existed. She asked me where I got it from and I replied 'from the despotic queen of shoes, of course'. She looked at me with a blank stare on her face and then proceeded to try to get me out of the store as quickly as possible.

I love the laces! So many possibilities. I spent the last hours playing around with awesome footwear lace concoctions. Absolutely delightful.

On a sadder note, all this constant shoe lust has meant that I am too behind on my mid-semester assessments. Assessments require time and concentration, so unfortunately I will have to give up blogging for the next fortnight. But I promise to be back with lots of frickin' awesome outfits when mid-semester break begins! Until then...toodles!(Currently listening to: Aerosmith - Love in an Elevator)

WOAH that's like an urban legend! A 60% off voucher?! You look like you got something really hot with it too -- well done!

Well the Despotic Queen of Shoes is really resourceful in the matter of shoes. They look great on you, guess you won't have time left to play with the laces.

YAH! I'm so happy it arrived (since it took me so long to post it, I was worried that it might get lost) and I'm ever happier with your selection. GL with your assessments. xxx

Haha, you have AWESOME taste in shoes. Unfortunately, I had to pay full price for those babies! They're so comfortable though. I never even realised the possibilities with the laces. Two guesses what I'm doing tonight...
