Hey Everyone

After a long (not really that long but it felt it) wait for my Jeffrey Campbell Lita's, they have FINALLY arrived :) :)
It wasn't all plain sailing though...

After furiously tracking my parcel every single day, sometimes twice a day they arrived in British Customs on the 13th May... they were sat in customs for FIVE WHOLE DAYS. I was getting rather frustrated... but they finally left customs at 6:08 this morning with a massive £35.08 customs charge on them. I can't say I wasn't expecting a VAT charge as I was pre-warned by my post-woman (we've become rather friendly lol) that customs are pretty strict. So anyway.. I could have waited till tomorrow for Parcel Force to deliver to my house but I thought I'd take the 30 minute drive to the depot... just couldn't wait any longer (and I do anything to get out of revision ;) Procrastination! )

So here are the beauties...

The box had a little crossword on it... all the answers revolve around shoes...
Don't get that in Topshop ;)

LOVE <3 

They are seriously comfortable.. and so so so amazing! The suede has a kind of worn affect, which I love... gives a vintage vibe. The shoes are so 70's and I really cannot wait to wear them! They also fit like a glove, which I am so glad about... was really worried as to whether I picked the right size.

Just another picture to show you some other purchases I have recently made (nothing on the scale of wowness of the Lita's though lol) and some other stuff.. 

Left to Right...
Leopard Nails: Models own Nude Beige and Wah nail art pen
Dress: Primark
Camera necklace: etsy (bought from THIS shop)
Bikini (awful picture soz): H&M
meee :): Wearing New Look Blouse
Shorts: H&M
Top: Topshop
Necklaces: Etsy (same shop as above)
Models Own nail varnishes



Just wanna take this time to say THANK YOU for following and reading etc.. Love reading everyone's comments.. Makes my day :) So again THANK YOU :)

    Just came across you blog, very nice :)

    Love the Litas, I got a tapestry pair not long ago and had to pay a similar price, It was awful waiting for them, I think I tracked it about 5 times a day haha. Very suprised at how comfy they are!

    And such cute necklaces you've bought, I may have to have a look at the store :)
