...there is no ‘I give up on this’ button anymore. Well I give up on this.
I thought I always wanted a pair of Jimmy Choos and to be honest if I was loaded I probably would go and indulge. But I am not loaded!
There is no way in the world I could justify spending £300+ on a pair of shoes. I feel bad if I spend over £25! I did ponder getting a pair off eBay but even those (the good ones anyway) go for over £100. There is no way I am spending over £100 on a second pair of shoes!! I have been keeping my eye open for a great bargain pair but those ones tend to be pretty hideous so I am giving up.
But, if anyone sees any size 5 Choos in a charity shop for under £10 let me know!!!

...I might have to compromise on this one.
I’d love to go to London to the Jimmy Choo shop and have the full experience of trying on and choosing a brand new pair of latest season Jimmy Choo’s…but…I really can’t justify spending £200 – £400 on shoes when we are trying to be sensible with money.
I would still like to own a pair but I think I might have to be satified with an eBay pair. I’ve had a look and although lots still go for £100+ I think eventually with patience I might get the right pair for less…we’ll see. I still want ones which are perfect for me but without feeling guilty everytime I put them on!

....just maybe….I could treat myself to some Jimmy Choo’s when I go to London for the 43T meet up?! Perfect way of combining multiple goal completion!

Our darling little Lucky destroyed ANOTHER two pairs of shoes last night – the total now stands at about ten pairs. I thought I had protected my nice new black boots (not Jimmy Choos thank goodness) by closing the door as we went to bed.
But no. Clever Lucky managed to open the door whilst we slept and ravaged both my boots and hubby’s trainers (frankly he needed a new pair anyway so I’m not so fussed about those).
I still want my Jimmy Choos but I don’t know that I’m responsible enough to own any yet!
Stays on the list anyhoo.

They are gorgeous, comfortable, and out of my league. I NEVER try too hard and since I saw the first pair of Choos I’ve wonder if I could ever own a pair and still pull it off. I saw some vintage stores in Boston that carried some used pairs for less and I started wondering. I swear I would wear them with my panties and nothing else to in the back yard and hang clothes on the line…

I forfeited my Mum’s promise as although I did reach my weight gain goal and then surparsed it – unintentionally and unhappily too.
I will get this weight/health battle won and then I’ll get my Jimmy Choos!

I would love to own a pair of Jimmy Choos!....I get as high end as Steve Madden and Ann Marino…..that’s it. I know it’s selfish and they’re only shoes that go on our sometimes sweaty feet when we wear high heels, but oh well…Dare to dream..nothin wrong with that!!

My lovely Mummy drunkenly promised to buy me a pair of Jimmy Choo’s if I can get up to 8 stone (112 lb) and maintain it for six weeks!!!
Watch this space.

When I finally get round to owning my first Jimmy Choo’s I will certainly be careful where I take them off…I got changed in the gym today and whilst putting my handbag in a locker I overheard a cheeky young girl saying ‘oooh we could nick those shoes’! Can you believe it?!
