Yes, they looked great when I tried them on.
They will look even better when 1) I break them in, and 2) wear them with a proper jacket and trousers, although they are the kind of shoe that will look brilliant no matter what you wear with them - even black jeans would look great with them.
A wise man once told me never buy your wife shoes for going out with. Always buy her slippers. That way she won't expect you to take her out!
(I never buy my wife clothes or shoes).

haha i buy her clothes or shoes or makeup lol
When we got married 20 odd years ago she asked me never to buy any of those things! We have a joint account and she just buys whatever she wants, which really isn't a lot!
we have a joint account as well. she buys whatever she wants but i buy for her as well. These shoes she has been dreaming off since a month or two and thought they are expensive(which they are IMHO) so i bought them for her!! while putting idea of new wheels on my car on the side lol
Lol! My wife isn't your typical wife. No interest in shoes or clothes. She makes cards so buys craft making stuff, but thats about it.
Now a new set of wheels I can understand! What do you drive? I already have two expensive hobbies. Apple and Photography!
haha yeah my wife is awesome lol. she has alot of interest in clothes,shoes,bags, jewellry etc. Well i have q7, a4 and accord. i recrently bought the accord and want to put new wheels on it lol. and yes Apple and cars are my hobbies lol
Honda Accord? I recall driving one in my teens. It was an old wreck of a car. Mouldy inside. But it had Cruise control when I'd never used it before. As I was living in London I never got to use it until one night we tested it on a long straight road. Sadly it had speed bumps, so you can guess how comfy the ride was at 30 MPH to get it to kick in!
Also the AC was like a dry ice affair. It produced internal smoke!
haha yeah 2018 Honda Accord. its really cool it has more features than my A4 lol
I drive a Golf TSI. Lovely car. Much better since I binned off the Dunlops it came with and put on some Continentals.
We have a charity event coming up this month so I just purchased a couple pair of Tom Ford sunglasses, a his and hers set to put in the silent auction for the attendees to bid on. Whatever they sell for collectively goes to the charity which helps families in the city with food and other necessities if they are going through hardships.
I have been involved in setting this up and giving to for about the last 10 years, it is a great organization for the city.
Hoping these sell well.

Pure madness, operatic style: Metropolitan Opera, Lucia di Lammermoor, the Mary Zimmerman production as revived in 2009, Anna Netrebko singing Lucia. Rented it once and decided to spring for it rather than keep renting it once in awhile forever lol.

A xiaomi thermometer
What exactly is that?
Or, rather, how does this form (or brand) of thermometer differ from others?
I purchased a memory stick today; they are still very useful.
USB A or A and C for future proofing? I have a waterproof/fireproof/shockproof keychain one I’ve had for years. I’ll be sad when I have to retire it.
Whatever USB 2.0 is.
Earlier, when putting documents on another USB stick, it crossed my mind that I could do with one or two more.
Some weeks ago, I purchased a USB 3.0 stick; I think I wasn't really concentrating today, except on the documents I need to have copied (the will), and needed to sign and have converted to pdf format, (some for myself).
What brand is your waterproof/shockproof/fireproof keychain?
Pretec. Something like this one.
USB 2 and USB 3 look similar and are backward compatible. The basic shape is the same and is referred to as USB type A.
USB type B is usually used on printers etc. Looks like a slightly small square on top of the other.
USB type C is the new one which is much smaller. Looks a bit like a lighting port on your iPhone. Thunderbolt uses the same shape on newer Macs.
