Wow, it's lovely - how did you get it that cheap, thought boohoo charges over fiver for delivery? is there any discount anywhere?

It's fab! I bought it instore a few months ago. Great for daytime wear and going out. I often wear it at college and then dress it up at night. This is me wearing it during the day (as posted in this forum!) and at night...not even very dressed up. But I rarely dress up. Take no notice of this picture

Who cares what your other half thinks anyway?!

And how on earth is it "loud"?

Great dress.

Even before I clicked on the link I knew it'd be the Cairo wedge! They're gorgeous. I tried to get them on Debenhams website but my size was sold out.

I have these in black and leopard and they are the comfy-est heels I have! I wish the black would go on sale!

Ah god now I want them even more!

How do you find the fit? They have the next size up and if they run small I could chance it...

I find the toe is quite wide which is good for me as I have wide feet. I am a 7.5 normally. The 7 (40) was too small and the 8 (41) was perfect so I would say they are probably a little small.

Perfect! I'm usually a 7 so I think I will try the grey in 8. I can always get an insole if they're a bit wide. Thanks Pythia

Edit: went to Debenhams website, shoes are in stock but I can't add them to my bag. No shoes for me so

I tried to add them to my basket twice just now and both times it worked fine and let me continue to checkout?

Just tried again and still no joy. I can click on the size but when I click add to bag nothing happens. I can add the tan pair but they're not the ones I want. I'm on an iPad so maybe it's not fully compatible with the site?

I bought this jacket in River Island for €18 yesterday:

And then got this necklace as a Kris Kindle present yesterday. I'm not normally a juicy fan but it's fairly nice considering:

ha ha brilliant!! it's worth it for that price in fairness...might (for the first time) post a pic in what I wore today when im wearing it, thats if it fits me after the christmas!!! may have to abandon fashion and appearance for a bit and focus on the nutrition and diet forum!

I got this Jane Norman dress in the sales and I absolutely LOVE it!!! I don't really go into Jane Norman these days as I find a lot of the stuff is quite dated but this really caught my eye.. It's a real show stopper on

I was supposed to wear it out New Years Eve but my poor little Son was sick

It doesn't seem to be online anymore! There's a goldish version but not the silver one that I have! Sorry!

There were a few VERY frugal months when I was knocked down to one or 2 days a week at work, and I was waiting on my social welfare to come through. It came through at the start of the Christmas period, when I also got full time hours for a few weeks and Christmas money. I may have gone a bit mad as a result

I got these Irregular Choice shoes on sale for €65 in Schuh:

I also went a bit mad on boohoo.com last night

. I ordered these:

Skirt

Finally, I'm waiting on this to arrive for WEEKS now. Stupid An Post delaying it

. I ordered it from Sirens & Starlets on ebay:
