I went and bough a nice beige pair of suede calf boots in the British Heart Foundation for £7 don't think they're any "brand" (they have "made in china" on the bottom ), then I found a lovely next jacket (that's what I'd gone hunting for) a winter jacket for £7

Right that was me sorted..........

Until I walked past a new second hand clothes shop (not a Charity shop) that's opened near Morrisons.

There in the window were the most gorgeous pair of pink Timberland boots - in a size 4 1/2 (I'm a 5 - but can fit into some 4's) for just £20.

I went and tried them on and they fitted - they were gorgeous - so rang DH and asked if he thought I should buy them (given I'd already spent £15 on boots and a jacket) and he said yes

So I'm now the proud owner of a pair of these and am walking around like a Cheshire cat

(haven't posted in "style" as they're probably not actually very stylish and didn't want to get told how awful they are )

disclaimer we won't really be eating baked beans on toast for a week as a result - I'll just have to forgo a few of my little "extras".
