My relationship with Primark + Wedges Review

I recently braved a trip to my local Primark (not for the faint hearted I assure you) to see what bargainous glories waited for me. Unfortunately a trip to Primark- cheap as it maybe- never turns out cheap as I am one of the unlucky 80% of women suffering from the common disease known widely as Primark Head. In other words, you get so caught up in the cheapness of it all that you don't even realise that you have accumulated like £100 worth of it! Anyway, I was in need (though my mum and dad would beg to differ) of a new pair of going out shoes as I had worn my trusty black wedges to death. So I bit the bullet and began trying shoes on which, may I add, IS TORTURE. Primark obviously thinks it amusing to force customers to waddle and hop around in their shoes which have been 'handily' tied together with elastic.. I've literally faceplanted in Primark before, it's not fun for anyone involved particularly my pride!! But to my joy I eventually came across these babies:

Pros: 
* Are not only surprisingly well made (never thought I'd say that..) but also surprisingly comfy, was expecting to suffer very un-silently after a few hours in them!
* Are v v cheap! Well by Primark standard they're perhaps not but in the grand scheme of things £12 is great for a pair of wedges! Lots of people complain about this but try and see the bigger picture people!! Hahaha :-)
* Go with just about everything, like my mum says 'you can't go wrong with black!'

Cons:
If you're on the petite side of things this will probably be irrelevant to you but- 
* They're high. Very high. But who gives a flying f really?? I used to have a problem with wearing heels as I am taller than the majority of my friends but recently I have just let it go because.. Great shoes> everything else (including looking like a "tranny" as one of my friends once charmingly called me!)

So all in all, at the end of the day all I can say is.. GET THEM! You won't regret promise!
