Dress: Thrift (similars from Free People Mes Demoiselles Minkpink Asos Urban Renewal or love this Daytripper shortie .  Boots: Deena and Ozzy at Urban Outfitters (love these by Madeline Harness or Topshop. Bag: Vintage Coach.  Aviators: Ray Ban.  Horn pendant: my WDUGT shop
I have big feet and this is not some confession.  Most of you know I wear a US 10/UK 8.

Growing up through school my feet were just a bit too big for my age and that ticked me off.  Royally.  Every time I try on certain shoes I still think: ‘do these make my feet look bigger’ but with these boots I said oh sod this and raised a middle finger to that crap. I KNEW  my boats looked bigger and couldn’t give a flying @*@@. #docmartenmentality plus too grunge-like to ignore.   Long time readers remember the boots grunging up sparkly stuff here. 

I feel a ‘morale of the story’ line coming on but will say this to fellow big feet chicks: You see that shoe you just tried on? Just wear the bloody things and be proud of your big a** feet. 
ps. Shout out to the assistant 2 years ago at LF who had them on and told me where she got them.

Yes, her feet were a lot smaller than mine.

    It’s amazing the little things about ourselves that bug us…. My list is a long one!
    I hadn’t noticed your ‘big’ feet although I do know you wear a size 8. My weakness is shoes and you always look amazing in your shoes, maybe big feet show them off better??

    PS, I remember those boots in the sparkly skirt and woolly jumper post #longtimereader

    Haha I’ve never noticed! Well I guess because I have fairly decent sized feet too (not as large). The only problem I have is when I am randomly shoe shopping, I can’t try any one because all those on display are too small.

    I don’t think your feet look big at all since you’re tall.. and I bet it’s easier for you to find nice shoes on sale 🙂 .. there’s always a bright side to things!

    YES! I have the same size feet, I hate that I can never find vintage shoes that fit me! But stopped caring once I left highschool, there’s too many awesome shoes to give a fuck which ones ‘flatter’ my foot size.
