Rolls and Rain Boots

12 January 2012

Let me introduce you to a very important person, my best friend. Not only is this lovely lady one of the kindest, most considerate friends it's possible to have, she is also now my Maid of Honor. Meet Pippa...
Bag and Boots - Aldo. Waterfall Blazer - Topshop
Isn't she so well dressed?! I always have clothes envy. If only we were more similar in size then I could steal all her clothes. Alas, she is small and I am tall, there's truth in the saying opposites attract. Being the wonderful friend she is, and also being dedicated to her new duties, she took a day off work to make a start on dress shopping with me. We managed to fit in a quick trip to Yo! Sushi and a lot of non-bridal shopping too though. Does it really surprise you?!

If you fancy some sushi, you should give Yo! Sushi a try, it's my favorite sushi place, plus there's 40% off this month. So you can save yourself some money or if you're anything like me, use that as an excuse to eat 40% more!

  

On the way home from shopping we stopped by Daniel a footwear shop. I picked a pair of much needed wellingtons, otherwise known as rain boots to the rest of the world.

I have a pair of awesome 'Duck Egg Blue' Hunters back in Korea but for some reason (I must be crazy) I didn't think I'd need them when I was in England. Yes, England, land of constant wetness. I told you I must be crazy! It's rained almost non-stop since I've been here and now that I've bought these I'm sure it won't rain again. Still, they're comfy and I think they look stylish enough to wear in place of casual boots, so I'm happy with my latest purchase.

I know a lot of people who think wellies are the ugliest things ever but I think this pair of better than the average. What do you think of them? Do you own any Wellies?

  22. Oh wow, okay, I'll be honest. Normally I when I see bloggers wearing their Wellies, I just can't see why. Aha, I mean it looks okay, but...well, I just don't see the appeal in them.
    But I definitely see the appeal in yours! Haha, those are awesome!

  23. Those boots are superr cute. And I remember having Yo Sushi twice when I was visiting family in England a couple of years ago (and loving it) so your post really took me back down memory lane a bit! xo

  25. I totally agree with your logic on the eating 40% more at Yo Sushi, I think I might have to do that soon.

    Just as well you were crazy and left the Hunters behind because those wellies are beautifulllllll!

  27. these are probably the most stylish wellies I've ever seen! I do plead guilty of owning 2 pairs-pink ones and black glittery ones! I do however wear them only when it's raining heavily!:)

  38. Those boots are amazing! With the torrential rain we get for days on end at times I think wellies are an investment, every year I say I'm going to buy some and I never do.

  39. They are very pretty indeed as far as wellies usually go! I recently seen some ankle rain boots and they're now on my wishlist. We will be heading into autumn soon and yesterday it poured all day so I think I can justify finding some pretty rain boots!
