So I carried on exploring my new found freedom to dress this weekend!
On Friday the pumps I ordered arrived in the morning - I didn't take them out the box before work because I knew I wouldn't want to take them off! All day was nervous about if they would fit and practically ran home in the evening. Well they fit and have barely been off my feet since! It is the first time I have ever worn heels and my feet are aching a bit now but boy was it worth it!
I had planned to stick to budget and not by anything else until next month but on Saturday had such an urge to purchase something in person. So off came the heels, on went the trainers and I went into a thrift shop - heart beating and hands trembling! It was actually the third shop before I worked up the courage to look at skirts. As I was looking a girl came up to put one back and caught me rifling through the large end, she kinda snickered as she walked off and I almost left the shop straight away but stuck it out and found a black mini in my size. I took it up to the counter and the girl looked at me and smiled then took ages to run it through the till - I don't know if she was doing it deliberately. I could feel myself going red but she finally finished and I left with my new skirt. Mission accomplished!!
Sitting here now in my new purchases and feeling very happy with an exciting weekend!!
