Preparation

We successfully completely our training to use the posh expensive equipment without breaking anything and having to sell our bodies on the street in order to pay for the damage.

The next important step was to get our locations and props sorted.

Tragically, this meant an entire afternoon dedicated to looking through shoe shops. Sometimes university is really tough.

So Annabel and I heroically rose to the occassion and sifted - very reluctantly, may I add - through the shoe displays in New Look, Russell and Bromley, and many, MANY more. We examined boots of all shapes and sizes and colours, and spoke to various managers about the possibility of using their shops to film in.

The problem seemed to be arising from the fact that the shop managers were reluctant to let us use their shops unless the boots featured were FROM said shop.

This was a problem because all the boots that we could afford without having to sell our bodies on the streets again were, simply, not very nice. Russell and Bromley was clearly out of the question.

Just as we were about to give up hope and go and curl up in a corner somewhere and cry, we stumbled upon a little shop called Moda In Pelle. Inside this shop, we saw something that made out jaws drop and little bits of dribble trickle down our chins.

This is what we saw:

The only problem was that the above glorious boot was worth £99 even in the sale. However, being the crafty businesswomen that we are, Annabel and I had a plan. After the puddles of our drool had been mopped up, we spoke to the manager suggesting that in return for advertising their amazing shop of wonders and boots of holiness on Youtube and amongst all of our student cronies through our film, that perhaps we could have a discount on the boots? It worked. Admittedly, we only managed to get a £10 discount. But I am happy to announce that the most incredible, breathtaking, pant-wettingly stunning, jaw-droppingly gorgeous boots are now mine. MINE. ALL MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
