Margiela!!!!!! thank you Apple….

I have been dreaming thinking sweating about it ever since I saw the collection online … the boots, I had to have the boots. If you haven’t seen them, here they are:

I’m willing to give up comfortable shoes and a month of groceries to have them.. So this morning I set my alarm to log in and buy them online – easy, no? why schlep to the store and wait in the cold when I can do it from my bed… but no, by 10am, I had the boots in my sight, but not in my shopping cart… off I went to Oxford street.. the loooovvveelyyy security guards tell me at 10.30 that we can’t shop without a wristband (dammit) until 12.30. Crap. crap crap crap. there will be nothing left by then.
screw that Well I guess it’s only fair everyone gets a turn.

I run down Regent Street to the Apple store where there are fast computers as far as the eye can see.
I swear Apple isn’t paying me, but the connection and the site was soooo fast, at 10.39 am I had placed my order AND had time to buy more. If only Visa was as generous as Apple…

So then as smug casual as can be I wandered to the H&M on Oxford street at 12.00 – and here is what it looked like:

Reasonably civilised, but all the good stuff was gone…. did anyone else get what they wanted??
