Epic Failings

As per usual, there's been some epic failings on the posting front again. I have no excuse for this other than those previously cited in my last post. That and general exhaustion at returning to work. Haha.

I don't have much to say right now, but I wanted to let you know I'm still alive and loving, honest! Whilst on "holiday" from work, I did a bit of retail therapy, and bought a few nice new things, so they'll make it up onto the blog in the next few days hopefully :) If not in the next few days, then certainly over the coming weeks!

Last night on the tube home, I also saw a man with the most fantastic pair of shoes. It was one of those times when I wished we were living in 2110 rather than 2010, because I would like to think by then that we'll be able to upload metal images, and use those mental images to Google things etc. Unfortunately, I didn't have a camera on me, and my phone camera is a bit crap, so I was unable to get a picture of these amazing shoes. But first things, first: THEY WERE MAN HEELS!

Now, normally, man heels would creep me out a bit, or make me think of that greasy haired, rather weird guy that everyone seems to know of... But they worked for this guy, some how, I'm not sure how, but they did. However, embarrassingly, I did get caught by him staring at his feet and got a big cheesy grin in return... mildly embarrassing.

Anywhoooo, I just googled man heels (not a search I would recommend if you've eaten recently or are weak stomach... there's some pretty scarring stuff there...) and I found a picture that closely matches these shoes that I'm now obsessing over. Unfortunately the picture only matches in style, and not in colour.

(Picture found from Google search leading me here)

Now, the shoes that he were wearing were actually a bluey-greeny purple two-toned boot. It was beautifully shiny (that's actually what caught my eye in the first place, I'm like a bloody magpie sometimes "ooo, shiny!"). To add to, and contrast against this, there was then an elastic insert to make them easier to get on, but this wasn't just any insert. Oh no, this insert was done in the shape of a slightly more elaborate cross, and in a lovely contrasting dull brown. I'm not sure why, but this all just worked for some reason.

And the final lust factor for me? He adjusted his position slightly, and this resulted in a mini-flash of lining of the inside of the boot... it was red! And looked like red velvet or suede or something. 

Basically, all I know is they looked sooo divinely comfortable and were so out there, they really worked. It was odd, but I'm ok with that :)
