Sometimes the internet is more foe than friend...

It's no secret that I have a huge online shopping problem. It kind of turned into a way of life for a while; if I couldn't get it online I didn't want it. Yeah, hermit much? Anyway around about last week it slowly began to dawn on my that I had almost come to the end of my online shopping tether (the sites I can afford anyway). Yeah, imagine that! Shopped out the internet...So I picked myself up out from under my duvet, put presentable clothes on and went out into the big bad world. I bought stuff in real life again! It was ok. The one thing I did notice was that when enough was enough it was very obvious from the huge amount of shopping bags you are lugging around, no hiding that shit immeditely in the closet, people on the street have seen you!!! It also puts things into perspective and stupid decision making is put on the back burner...for example I put down some floral print velvet pants for some basic, but amazing, leather sandals. Online this would have been the other way round and I would have recieved my furry floral pants in the mail two weeks later and had a cry.

This all said and done, I still really want something (or two) that just look super amazing on my laptop screen - so obviously on me, duh...


Oh hi Topshop, thanks for always producing shoes that are incredibly irrelevant to my life.


Zoe & Morgan gold Eternity Snake ring. Usually snakes creep me the fuck out and the snake eternity symbol/eating itself was not exception...except when it's in gold and resonalby priced. Gonna do this next pay day...

Moral of this story is...Sarah is incredibly feckle.

Don't be fooled by the rocks that I've got


So how's about these Kathryn Wilson shoes? They are a bit Jenny From the Block. But kind of in a good way. They are sort of growing on me. Waddaya think, huh?


Or maybe in sparkle for the real baller. But I'm not really a baller am I? I'm just Sarah - who sometimes has very weird taste in shoes. Still pining and regretting after these babies by the way, sigh.

NEW SHOES



These are my new shoes - lovely and very big, thanks so much to Emily at Madame Hawke for them! Thats Sarah in the background, and yes I'm wearing socks with them.

In reality?


Would people actually buy and wear these in real life? Like real people. Not Lady Gaga. Not Daphne Guinness. "Real people". Like you and me. Where would we wear these if not in a music video. To the supermarket? Haha, I'm so funny. But really, if you could get your paws on these (or a cheaper version *cough Wild Pair cough*) would you do it? I don't think I would. They're just too 'funny' for me. Opening Ceremony buckle boots, yes. Louis Vuitton tribal heels, yes. YSL cage heels, yes again. But these little puppies, that would be a big fat non from me. Not that I think they are too weird to exist. I think they are pretty awesome to be honest, the pinky ones in particular tickle my fancy. But not as shoes. Maybe as something I'd put on a plinth and admire from afar. Or a flower pot. Now that'd be cool.

All I want for Christmas (for the moment)

I want this bag. Christmas present anyone? I haven't thought of any 'realistic' presents I'd like to receive this year from family, friends and devoted readers, so until I do, I'll just keep on posting the ridiculous wish list of Sarah.



Oh and shoe predicament update: I bought the silly, nasty, cheap shoes. But did a little compromise in my head and got them in black so that takes away about 40% of their silliness. Black. I can't keep away.

My life is full of problems

Hey guys. So, I have this wee decision to make. Last night I put some shoes on hold. They are a-la these Louis Vuitton tribal heels (but a bit nastier and a lot cheaper - which I guess is the same thing). But here are my problems with the whole situation 1. I think they might make my size 5 feet look tranny. 2. Is is even possible to make size 5 feet look tranny? 3. I saw a totally tacky girl wearing them last night in a totally tacky way and 4. Last night I also saw these Kathryn Wilson shoes (which are kind borderline nana on a cruise/Cher form Clueless shoes - neither of which I have massive problems with) on someone else and re fell in love with them all over again.


So my little shoe predicament is do I get the $150 funny-looking shoes OR order in the $300+ Kathryn Wilsons? They are both 'phase' shoes if you are the type to weigh out sustainability of things. Will I look stupid in these faux-Louis'? Do keep in mind that I'm not usually the one who'd wear head to toe colour - just colour on the toes.

The Wedge

This is my future. I want these. These will make my life (and summer wardrobe) complete. These shoes are amazers!!! I can't explain how much I've been thinking (and re-looking at them) since I was inspired by the girl I work with's awesome summery wedges and took straight to net-a-porter, and far away from my work, to look up wedges. Love at first sight. I want these so much I might even do a Veruka Salt tantrum all alone in my room over them.

The meaning of life

are these shoes. Or at least something pretty damn close.

Falling over

This is something that happens to EVERYONE. Not just girls in heels after a few drinks. It happens to boys too you know, I've seen it happen.

Sometimes, I get a bit out of control when I shop


Shoes will forever be a problem for me. Especially since I have a tendency to buy things that are "similar but slightly different." For example, I might already have strappy black heels with gold studs on them - but to me that's a whole different ball game from black heel booties with gold studs. Right? RIGHT?! See the difference? And what is so wrong with having a slightly out of control shoe collection? If anything, they photograph well. But what is definitely a whole different game is $300+ Twin Peaks perfect dresses. That game is called unfairly too expensive for Sarah. Sigh.
