Mum 28 sent an invoice of £325 to a friend to pay for scratches on her daughter's designers boot

Will the decision of fashion designer Sarah demanding her friend to pay for scratches found on her daughter’s boot after the little girl came back home from a play-date with her friend’s child become another way life in today’s world?

Upon seeing the scratches on the boots, Sarah got so upset that she had to send a mail to her friend Gibbs asking her to pay for the boot or else she will escalate the issue to the next level.

Sarah, who once made a dress out of pubic hair, immediately fired off an angry email to friend Nicola Gibbs, 33, and told her to pay for a new pair or face further action.

Single mum-of-two Sarah, 28, fumed: “If your child comes back with scratches on their body, you’d be like ‘what’s happened?’

“It’s the same with her shoes. She’s not supposed to go outside with them.

“Wherever she goes, she goes with a bag of other shoes.

“Obviously shoes get scuffed on the soles, but these look like they’ve been worn for a year, not for a few hours.

“There’s also a big black mark on the toe where they’ve been drawn on. I was devastated when I saw them.”

According to the fashion designer, her little daughter has up to 60 pairs of shoes and only wears designer labels.

Here is an excerpt of the content of the mail she sent to Nicola: “I am disgusted to see her new Italian leather shoes are all scuffed and have a Sharpie (pen) mark on them so below is the bill for these replacing (sic).

“As a designer you can imagine I do not want my child to look anything less than pristine.”

Sarah, from Wakefield, West Yorks, defended her email after Wednesday’s playdate with Nicola’s three-year-old daughter Stacey.

Sarah further added: “A lot of other people just get their kids’ clothes from Primark. I don’t mind handing a few pounds to them for their dresses.

“But Isabella’s are usually Spanish boutique stuff. She’s actually a model so I keep her in nice clothes and shoes all the time.

“These boots are important for her modelling work because they match her outfits.

“Nicola was in charge and she was looking after my child, so she’s responsible for the damage.”

However confused Nicola she won’t pay a penny towards the damage and yesterday branded Sarah’s bill “a pile of nonsense”. Saying: “I don’t know what her problem is to be honest.

“She must have more money than sense if she’s going to pay that much for a pair of shoes for her daughter and then complain when they get ruined.

“Kids are kids, they get messy, and they ruin things, that’s life.

"She needs to get over it because no amount of bills she sends me will make me pay for the shoes.

"I'd advise her next time to send her daughter out in wellies or if she wants to dress something up try Toys 'R' Us."

Fashion designer Sarah is known for working with unusual materials and previously created an outfit made entirely from Skittles.
