Pensioner in Purple Patent Platforms!




Have been out with friends again today - we met up in Salisbury. Not such a cultural visit this time as we wandered round the shops looking at this and that and this afternoon we ended up in TKMax . I found this fabulous pair of shoes and in my size too and just had to try them on. I needed a ladder to get up onto them and a steadying hand to get down again afterwards! But aren't they fabulous?!



Laugh? We just had to take a photo of me in the shoes - good job the fire alarm didn't go though as I doubt I could have walked let alone run in them. I didn't buy them of course but thought what fun it would be to get a red coat and carry my new felt bag and be a dotty old woman who everyone would point at (maybe they do now but if so it's not because I am wearing purple patent platforms!)

Fabulous, fabulous shoes........ a real flashback! I don't remember when I last wore heels of any sort. When I was younger I was never out of them. I don't blame you for trying them on. :O)

Is your TKMax like our TJMax here in the United States??? We love TJMax!!! Love the purple color... but not the shoes!!

Jane I am flattered that you chose to mention me in another blog. My calendars are really a diary of what I have been doing - they are in my art journal so doing the page for that is a journal entry too. But it is all for fun.

I'd break my ankle in those for sure - but they definitely made me smile - I needed something to this morning so thank you
