Since I live far from my family, my Dad & I often send each other gift certificates for the holidays. Many years for my
birthday I get an
Amazon.co.uk gift certificate and I use it to buy shoes. I can usually get
Crocs or
Converse cheaper in the UK than here in NL. Here it is September and I've been holding on to my gift certificate for a couple months now. At first I was too busy to sit down and find the time to search the hundreds of shoe options, but now that I have a bit more time I just can't decide which shoes I want.
Do I replace
shoes I already have? I mean literally buy the same style and color because I love them and I'm wearing my current shoes out. Do I buy something completely different? Do I buy out of need, because my winter boots are too old? Do I buy out of want, there are shoes that aren't practical but I like them? What do you all think of the shoes I am considering? (Keep in mind I am not fashion forward and I walk everywhere, so comfort is the key!)

Buy them all!
ReplyDeleteLove today's theme...lol :) (great minds think alike!)
ReplyDeleteI love those brown boots on the top right.
If I'm spending my money I buy practical and replace old shoes. But since it's birthday money...but a cute impractical pair :)
That's always my conundrum, too. I'd go with tried and true because I'm a capricorn and that's how we roll;)
ReplyDeleteI was close to getting the brown boots, but my husband didn't like them. So I bought the grey ones... and pink Converse All Stars! :) Danica
ReplyDeleteI love both of boots and I wear converse (laceless) pretty regularly :)
