purple boots

Boots – purple – with fringy bits – on sale – what’s not to love?

But I felt they needed more. As one does. I got busy with glitter glue, shell buttons, shiny thread, gold and silver fabric paint, and my glue gun.

I’m undecided about the outcome. It’s possible that more glitter is required. Or beads. Yes, they need beads. Maybe even glitter beads. But even as they are, they’re just the sort of thing to wear guaranteed to repulse one’s offspring.

Wow, those are fabulous and eye-catching. I would definitely notice a girl wearing those. You do know they are going to become your “pulling boots” now right?

Are we all reverting to our dim and distant youth? In which case, Faaaar Out! All you need now is some orange paisley crushed velvet bellbottoms and a nice embroidered goatskin vest.

  Photographic proof required, I think. I’d pay hard cash to see you in such an outfit…

Never seen glitter nail polish on you – am starting to think you’re all winding me up :-)

  ah, well I used to have lots but its such a pain to take off that I got rid of it! I do have some silver/steel grey sparkly. :)

  I have various glitter polishes which I find extremely useful about 3 to 4 days after painting my nails when the polish is starting to look a bit thin around the edges – a coat or two of glitter extends their painted life!

  I have a bad (but treated) vitamin D and B12 deficiency so mine flake. I’m lucky if I get three days without something breaking! But because I use the Vinylux that takes 8 minutes to dry, I love changing my nail varnish!

Love them. Hope your daughter is eternally grateful to you for keeping her eyes strong and healthy due to all the reasons you give her to roll her eyes round and round and round in her head!
