Oh, I'm just wearing the universe on my legs..


Okay, I'll be honest with you. I want these shoes and I want them badly. I went downtown today to pick up some fabric and I "just happened to pass by" one of the shops that stock Jeffrey Campbell shoes. They had them, of course they did, but not in my size. I tried them on in a size 40 instead and they almost fit. They actually felt like they were the right size, but the voice in my head adviced me not to get them, because they would probably be a bit snug when wearing them for a long time. But man, were they fabulous!

So I walked on and further down the street, I saw another shop stocking them. I went in and asked for my size. They didn't have it. But the girl in there was all "Are you sure you need a bigger size? They do run quite large".
She totally got in my head! I started questioning my own reasoning! So I popped by my local mall, because there is also a shop there that stocks the shoes. Apparently, they're everywhere around here. But alas, not in my size, though, this time I tried them on again and I'm happy I did, because this pair was so snug and uncomfortable, it took away all of my doubts.

So now I'm left staring, longingly, at my browser showing the preorder on revolveclothing.com. I want them. I want to wear them with leggings, with skirts, with all my lolita clothes and so on. They are also a bit cheaper online than in the shops around here. Of course, I run the risk of having to pay a customs fee, but I don't know, maybe they're worth it. Hmm...

I guess for now I'll hold my horses. I have this pair on the way in the mail at the moment. I got these on boohoo.com for £35, because I felt certain I wouldn't want the real deal at that price. They'll have to do for now. Then maybe later on, I'll get the spiked ones.


Moving on now, a nice little black parcel came yesterday.


Inside were my beautiful purple galaxy leggings and a note.


Yes, these were on my wishlist for March, and yes, they are a bit pricey, but when I found myself almost buying a pair of white jeans with hologram paint for the same price, I decided to get these instead and I'm so happy I did. I wore them today and I never want to wear anything else again, haha. They are so beautiful and comfortable. If you've been contemplating getting a pair of leggings from Black Milk, I'd say go ahead and order them now, you won't regret it.
