(Sad) Fashion Friday

Ok here is my tale of woe. I get this urge to buy new shoes for the school year, just like old days. So I go shopping and try on countless pairs and come across what I think is the dream shoe at the time. Because the price is a little on the high side, though, I decide to leave them for the time being- in my mind I am thinking I will save up my moneys in my piggy bank and come back in a month. A few days later, I go home telling my sister that I found these fabulous shoes. And what does she do? Goes out and buys them herself!! Well, I can't very well go and buy them myself now, or we'd be matching! So, these shoes were put to the back of my mind....
A few weeks later, I go shopping again. And what do I come across? A pair of shoes that I love EVEN MORE! Now these boots are just SO beautiful. I try on a size 10 (which SHOULD fit...) but unfortunately they are a little tight. No bother, I think, I can just order a size 11! After a little hesitancy about the price, I decide to take the leap. I mean these are not just ordinary boots, these boots make me feel like I am part of a different era, that I am an important person who has the capability to change the course of history! That's how great these boots are. I eagerly await the arrival of these little gems. Soon they arrive and I am ecstatic as I rip open the packaging! I whip out the marvelous brown beauties and hastily put them on my eager feet. But horror of horrors....they are STILL TOO SMALL!! How can this be?? They are size 11!! I never wear size 11!! My heart is crushed. I wear them out and about for a while to see if I can stand them, but my poor little toes are being crushed into one another. Sigh. I finally decided tonight, I suppose I will have to return them. Though it is with a heavy heart that I do so. Goodbye Beautiful Boots. Make someone else's feet very happy.
