The Queen Has Spoken.

A couple of days after we returned from our shopping trip, I mean vacation, Lily and I were in the car and I spotted a new shoe store. I quickly said "we just have to run in this shop cos mummy needs some new shoes." Lily responded to this by saying, Muuuuum, you have a 1000 pairs of shoes why do you need more?" So figuring she was done for I just kept on driving. I stopped at the store and did get some new shoes later in the week without her. She found them today in my closet and loved them. So I put them on for her and she said, Mummy you don't look good in those. Stripes don't suit you and they don't match your skin". I was speechless! Cocky little devil, who made her queen of the shoes? I pointed out that they match an outfit that I have but she was not about to be dissuaded. I have always had a shoe fetish but I haven't had a chance to wear anything other than totally flat in a long while cos it was hard to chase a maniacal toddler whilst wearing heels! I find it odd that even though Lily finds my shoes offensive she wore them herself for about 3 hours. If retail therapy works I should be cured cos the last month has been a shopping frenzy. I think I have a whole new wardrobe but it was neccessary. All this worrying makes me lose weight.

The offending shoes.

Lovin' the shoes!
Lily is a tricky one...she just wanted them all to herself! But, who can blame her??? She must have developed a shoe fetish of her own.

(I'm sorry you are still stressed/worried about the stinkin' wait. Don't lose too much weight! You are a skinny, little thing as it is!)

Seems like lily has a future on "What Not To Wear"
I need to learn the worry=weight loss trick.

I think your daughter and mine might be related. She has become the fashion police since she turned six.

I have a pair of shoes very similar to those..very sharp!! I think it's great that she has her own sense of fashion. I'm amazed that it starts so young!

That is hilarious (but I do love the shoes!)

A second grade teacher at my school got her hair cut and highlighted last night, and a girl in her class told her it was too blonde for her skin tone. Ha!
