The Muse Mimco Shoes

Unexpected purchases are great! Yesterday, popped into the Mimco boutique, not looking for anything in particular. P spotted a fave pair of RED shoes , tried them on and was sold instantly. Its something a bit different, nice detail and in a dashing red. Love the pleated satin on them, in a classical last.

Interestingly, the sales assistant said that a customer bought them for her wedding shoe! Not the first shoe that comes to mind for getting married in isn't it?

Also managed to do some other shopping:

A new coffee press because the other one cracked. This time a Bodum.

Copenhagen Bikes and Octopus bike in Berlin

Here's a couple of the many many interesting bikes I came across while in Copenhagen recently. The first was parked out front of a Japanese cafe, in Elmegade. Do you agree it looks like a very purposeful bike? A 'utility' bike perhaps?


The second bike was locked up near the Danish Library offices. Very, very interesting, and pleasing to my eyes, another bike worth of a snapshot.

Now this bike, or should I call it a vehicle, was spotted during our walk in Berlin, Germany. It's an Octopus bike, called this because it is ridden by 8 people. Notice they all look happy! Again, a bike I had never seen before.

Now for something completely different! Christmas is approaching very quickly now, the parties have already started. Here's what was worn to the first party of them all:
