Firenze

I'm another year older, but now I can finally say I own a 'forever' piece. As it was an important birthday I was fortunate enough to be given these (scroll down!):

I love them, they are so classic and they have been on my wish list for a loooong time. I can honestly see myself loving them as much in 40 years time, as I do now. Good shoes are the cornerstone of a good outfit (I think) so I feel ready to build on the rest of my wardrobe with things I will enjoy wearing forever.

What was the first truly memorable thing you bought/were given?

  8. Sorry i'm late, but Happy Birthday!! I hope you had a wonderful time?

    And how was London? You're not still here are you? What were your favourite things?

    LOVE the flats - I really want them too. The first important thing I remember buying were a pair of Marc Jacobs shoes that I got on ebay for a fraction of the price a season later. After that it was my Chanel bag (still my biggest and favourite investment, although it was sadly stolen a few months ago).
