My love affair with DMs is such that I feel I need a Doc Marten icon or something. And I have NO DEFENCE. They are ALL 14-hole Docs. Two of them are virtually identical except for the stitching and the leather quality (one pair are Soliwear and the other are cheaper DMs which already have cracks in the leather) and then there's the skelebones ones and the silver moonboots and I went round the entire store poking other Docs and I WANT THE BROWN TRIUMPHS, OKAY, I REALLY REALLY FUCKING WANT THEM.
Goddamn lack of employment. RIBBONS, M. THERE ARE RIBBON LACES. Triumphs with the fold-down tops and HRRNGH.
Classic black ankle boots, some T bar sandals, red shin high ones with zips on the sides of the laces. (A personal favourite find in TK maxx, £15), black pull on ladylike ones I got from my mum, and brown lady ones I bought with my student loan.
TK Maxx, you say? Normally I go in there hunting for Ugly Trainers, but if they also do Fuck Cheap Doc Martens I think I may have to drag myself to Wood Green and hunt some out. THANK YOU FOR THAT TIP.
[My boyfriend will hate you. Because, you know, it's not like there's a lot of room in the house around my shoes as it is...]
THAT WAS NOT MY FAULT, OKAY? THAT WAS TOTALLY NOT MY FAULT.
*sobs* I can't help it if I'm friendly!
Sorry, I really can't stay in one place for too long, I have to keep walking. And I titrated my dosage today, so I wasn't unmedicated (in which case I'd have been floppy and lethargic and happy to stay in the warmth, probably lolling and resting on your shoulder) but hadn't taken as much as I usually do (which would have led to a calmer, more standoffish, less-likely-to-strike-up-conversation-with-random-strangers me). So yeah, sorry.
You didn't 'talk me down', you just STOPPED.
And I maintain that he was as interested in you as he was in me. (And yeah, those shoes were kind of amazing, but I still wouldn't go for the brown. Now, if they had those in indigo...)
Anyway, it was an adventure and the walk probably did me a lot of good. It was certainly invigorating, and I can't complain about seeing more of the city. 'Twas a very pretty walk.
AHAHA horseshit, bro, I barely spoke to him. You two were all over, talking literature and films.
holy crap, nicander! how very cool. (altho i'm kind of thrown by his eyebrows being significantly darker than his hair.... and i can't stop staring at his wrists.)
Hah, apparently it's entirely natural to have eyebrows a very different colour to your hair - I think it gives his face the impression of a strong brow ridge that I always pictured him with.

(I too have 4 different pairs of docs, but in my defence 2 are pretty girly pairs. If you count my sandals that's 5...)

And yet, they're so lovely.
The silver ones sound amazing.

Also, the guy in that picture is truly melt-worthy. And because I am a horrible, horrible person, I think he would be very pretty when he cries.
