I'm happy tonight. I have a week and a bit of leave ahead of me (that's why the dog is smiling!), I have a full complement of resin, to 'glassify' my collages, waiting for me on the dining room table, and I nabbed some cute clothes from the op shop (and shopping last week).

Adorable Alannah Hill "End of the Affair" jacket, and a cute skirt to go with it. All to be worn with my new shoes. I went out to buy some Fluevogs (circa $400) but they didn't fit me - I have a long second toe and take a size 10 (and not all Fluevogs go to 11) - stopped at the Wittner Factory outlet in Richmond on the way home and found these - pictured above.
I loved them the minute I saw them, they fit, and (on sale) they cost me less than 1/10th of the Fluevogs. For a girl that struggles to pay full price/spend big money on anything that was a big win for me. I still love the Fluevogs but I'm going to have to wait until I need/want something with a pointy toe.
My last three shoe purchases have been Wittner - I'm actually becoming quite a fan of theirs.
And about that long second toe... it's actually a sign of aristocracy and great intelligence (or that you're a serial killer - but I'm not providing links to any of that!)
