The Perfect Black Winter Boots
19.11.12
This was one of those unplanned yet planned purchases. I'd been after a pair of fairly cheap, heeled (but with a platform) black boots in a relatively classic style so I could wear them until they're worn out. I'd saved a few pairs to my eBay watch list - unfortunately the ones I particularly liked had sold out in my size, so I decided to wait it out and see if they'd come back in stock. However, on a cheeky visit to New Look last week, waiting it out for those eBay boots went out the window. I spotted these little gems!
They had 3 pairs left - luckily there was a pair in my size! I tried them on and they were pretty comfortable. New Look had 25% off all footwear, making the decision to buy them even easier. I also managed to get and extra 10% off (yes - 35% off in total!) as the front of the shoe has a bit of metal detailing and it had been glued on wonky. I could live with that as my shoes seem to get nicks in them and scratched pretty much as soon as I wear them! So I ended up paying about £18 for them - what an absolute bargain eh?! I can't find these exact shoes on the New Look site, but there are plenty of other gorgeous ankle boots (I love these Steve Madden ones - 25% off!).
Have you taken advantage of the 25% off footwear at New Look?
Also, it's the last day you can vote for me in the Glamorous blogger challenge! If you'd be an absolute diamond and head to this Facebook photo and just click 'like' today, then I'd actually adore you. I'm sure Glamorous would appreciate a like too - their clothes are bloody amazing and great value so if you haven't checked them out do it!
I'll also be launching my giveaway when I hit 500 followers - 15 to go people and there is £30+ of goods up for grabs!

ReplyDeletelove the boots and what a great price. I pretty much always scuff my footwear within the first week of wearing - so frustrating! x
ReplyDeleteI think it's the clumsy side of me! That's why I rarely buy shoes for more than £25 or so!! xx
