As a girl bordering on the line of a size 16 and 18 due to my rather large hips and love of food I very rarely find myself buying anything from River Island where, usually when I do actually find something I like the only sizes they seem to have left are 4's and 6's, something us bigger girls i'm sure have all encountered on a regular basis.
But anyways, I kind of rambled a bit there and I shouldn't have (bad Bethan). Today for the first time in about 2 years I brought something from River Island. I brought these wonderful sandals!
That's the wonderful thing about shoes, they're loyal. I can change by body size until the cows come home and still my shoes will probably still fit me.
Now, I know what you're all thinking 'Bethan, you do realize it's been snowing today?!?'
and yes I do realize what a stupid purchase this is considering the British weather however I'm hoping to save these sandals for when I go on holiday to Florida in July as I've mentioned in a previous post and I thought if I didn't buy them not they would certainly not have them when I got round to it!
They take me back a couple of years ago with the skulls on them considering a couple of years ago I wore full on scene and emo type clothing on a regular basis (don't ask) and I just really think they're gorgeous and£10 cheaper than the ones in Accessorize I originally had my eyes on.
White Skull Studded T Bar Sandels,
River Island - £25
Now to the annoying bit, I only noticed this sticker of one of the sandals once we got home and the only word I'm finding to describe it is... sad. Have we really gone so far that they have to put stickers like this onto shoes? Of course something is going to break if you use it a lot, its pretty much logic.
I genuinely want to know what you guys think. Is this just River Island trying to cover their ass for poor quality made products or are we as the public really that stupid that we need common knowledge like this pointed out to us?
