Well, I resisted the boots. But the wave of pride I had in my self restraint has been relatively short lived, as I’ve now fallen head over heels – and strictly no pun intended – with another. Not boots, this time a simple yet sublime camel winter coat. It’s on hold for me until I decide whether I can again resist another temptation too good to turn down. Everything about it is saying yes – cut, colour, fit – an absolute style classic and bang on trend. Price tag, of course, firmly saying no.
Do men, I wonder, go through this, or do they simply think they can’t afford it and then its out of sight, out of mind.
There are very, very few occassions when I want to be a man, but perhaps when it comes to this sort of dilemma, this is one of them.
