Shopping
We went shopping yesterday for my gloves. It was a fulfilling trip, but I spent LOTS!
I love pretty things, and do love dressing up, but whenever I start thinking about the amount I have to spend to do so, it puts me off, and back to the plain jane I am again. And because of this, I rarely buy anything nice for myself here and will end up purchasing something which is cheap and not fuss about it.
But CG thinks spending on good quality stuffs is good. And because of this, we can't go into really cheapo stores, but end up in boutiques or departmental stores which are filled with branded stuffs only.
Went to Accessorize to look for gloves. Accessorize is a very lovely shop and I adore it, but the things are NOT cheap. CG chose a pair for me which looks really classy because of the fur at the wrist area, but that will mean I can only wear it if I'm dressing up for a more formal occasion, and I had to reject it because I want to just buy one which I can wear for any normal day too. Finally we settled for a leather one which costs 15 quid. Love it very much, and because it looks so similar to the one he's got, he termed them as couple gloves...lol...
He commented on my leather shoes which I have been wearing to hospital for 3 years. It looks pathetic, but it's comfortable. Half of my heels are already worn off, but I just can't bear to throw them away. He can't stand that pair of shoes, and kept saying it fits the bin perfectly. He like this pair of boots in Zara which had a pointed front. Classy, but because it was stiletto heels, I didn't want to buy it since I didn't want to have my legs aching in the hospital after long hours of walking. So we went to take a look at more shoes at Ravel.
Always dreamt of buying a pair of high boots but it isn't easy for me since my calves are small. But we finally found one which fits me! It's made of black leather and I love it because I can wear it with my winter coats or other more casual coats too. And the best thing is..I can finally wear skirts!!!
We love that pair of boots, so I bought it. There goes 70 quid. He must really dread my old pair of shoes, because he refused to let me wear them, and flunked them into the bin when I tried to stop him. I was quite sad about it because I love my old pair, and he made me laugh when he went "I know you love that pair of shoes, but give them a break ok? They must be tired after serving you for 3 years already. They told me so."....hahahahahhaa.
Anyway, the sweetest bit wasn't him trying to dress me up by choosing my gloves and boots, but what he did at Ravel.
He thinks that having jeans stuffs inside boots look nice, and lots of girls are doing that. And when the salesgirl brought the boots over, he came over to stuff my jeans into my boots and zipped it up for me. I was shocked...and very touched. I, sitting on the armchair, felt like some little princess. It brought me back to those days whereby my dad will slip my feet into shoes and tie my shoelaces. I was smiling throughout.
Watched Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire last night. Not bad, at least I kinda understand the movie. I watched the Prisoner of Azkaban the last time, and I had no idea what the whole movie was about, and almost dozed off. But at least I didn't feel sleepy this time.
Oh yes, he's cooking dinner for me tonight..yay!!!! I get to try his delicious cooking again. It's gonna be quite a spread I suppose. Can't wait!
