Oh my shoes!

Nothing beats the victory of finding the perfect pair of shoes. Agree?

topshop!

Shoes I should say, are an elixir that  refreshes our whole look effortlessly. A pair can either shower the limelight mizzle or trip you into the nearest cesspool. As important as they sound, the process of selecting one doesn't seem any easier. Taking that as a handy excuse, I'm morphing into a rather lazy shoe-shopper unfortunately. 


Lately my visits to the shoe stores are only filled with lots of yawning and price-tag viewing. I don't even try! Not to blame my previous-night affairs nor to hold up the principles of frugality, perhaps it's just the design of these shoes itself which acts as a total turn off. I feel they have failed tremendously to render the excitement to buy. All I'm seeing is loafer-like pumps, either a ribbon-on-top or the classic laces in various colours on every type, and not to miss to nitpick, the quirky holes at the sides and on the top . Seriously? If you think all that was mentioned is  enough to convince a shoe-stickler like me to splurge, honey you are wrong.


Frankly speaking though, it kinda sucks to see even the school kids donning new shoes while I cherish or to be exact, 'try' to cherish my old pair. Even so, nothing I would like to do to fix this emotional turbulence. I rather convince myself by considering them as my guinea pigs to sample different shoes,  further easing me in hunting for the perfect new pair soon by, of course, crossing the terribly wrong choices. 

Hmm looks like street peeping has become the new window shopping for me. But don't worry readers, summer has solutions for just anything. And an exquisite pair of shoes definitely tops the list! 


Summer designs, you better be stickler-friendly!

Before I end, let me complete my post about Louboutins' Cinderella-Dream. The much anticipated fantasy-filled glass slippers are finally here ladies! 

what a breath-taking mojo!

The sparkly-fairytale accessorized with Swarovski crystal sit atop the fab red cushion, and of course, classily bears the brand's signature ruby underside. 

Buckle up Cinderellas, this looks like a glam-battle with a crystal-on-top!

Nude Shoes Always

Oh dear, is it that hot till your shoes got bleached??

Oh Oh

And I certainly ate my own words and yielded saluting’em nude shoes! I used to hate them  for the dull unpolished colour but little did I know, shameless footwear can turn eye catching and rule seasons in a row.

Don’t  you girls realize how a nude pair of shoes make a statement these days? Adding up to the femme fatale look, nude shoes are as well touted for their abilities to elongate your legs giving you the slim slender look you are striving for. Let me explain how the whole “lengthening” thing works. Wearing colours on your shoes have the potential of making your legs look completely chopped from your feet as they obviously distinguishes the “real” and the man made  A nude shoes though take it all the way from your knees to your feet polishing you with a classy vibe accompanied with a very slim and tall silhouette by adding length to your toned up legs. You need not envy Cameron Diaz thereafter!

wonders happen.....

BTW If you still stand by black for sophistication then I reckon you are still in those times we used to match pink with pink and green with green. The world of fashion has grown to the extent of blocking colours and its about time to move on to more chic look and not cheesy excuses! 

Black shoes are so old school without a doubt and it certainly gave way for nude shoes to rule its way up. 

One more good thing about these shoes is they allow your dress to shine instead of giving away the spotlight to the footwear and that means, you are likely to gladly pop your look by devoting a pair of them.

FABULOUS!!

There is just something so stylish about nude shoes; perhaps it is because .....I don’t know, something should be. 

No gloss means MATTE!

So girls, get a pair pronto and let’s  go nude! (I don’t mean literally!). They say matte lipstick blends well with the look, try that out as well okay?

Ballerina Fever

Heaps of flair

Something is abysmally wrong with me. These days, when I've been shopping for shoes (which happens to be my Achilles' heel since I have the tendency to grab’em ALL), I have noticed my eyes immediately scrolling down to "Ballerina Flats." Alarming, right? I know. I'm actually counting on this being a passing phase and not a permanent state of mind since I’m that snob that won’t gave up on heels, but I might as well embrace it for now. Which eventually brings us to this post on Ballerina Flats!

A never frumpy trend !

They are always the underrated footwear that never show too much, flash too much or fill in the blanks-too much. However when you are raising the question of comfort, nobody dares a bet. The thing is girls, there's never a need to nitpick when it comes to buying these flats. Trust me on that. You don’t need an analysing session or walk a mile with it before swiping those cards. It’s always easy to pick a pair of ballerina flats than forking the best heels. Rubber sole for stability and  little lift of a baby heel will do to recruit one for a shoe war. Not to deny, flats of this kind soars as the hot trend during spring but don’t worry it works during summer as well (I mean for Malaysians of course). So stack it up honey!

Ballerina Flats serve a certain purpose and that's indeed a fact. I think it speaks comfort and ease for scooting around, running errands and of course for those who hikes up and down the stairs on daily basis. It's not like buying them to wear to the red carpets and strike pose and get screwed by Joan rivers the next day!

They are indeed day saviours for those who crave comfort. Not to forget, it never demands too much flash on the design. I personally would reckon a simple and modestly priced B.flats compared to ones bearing a hefty price tag that could possibly land you in a drooling spree throughout the year. Not classy. This time set aside the rage for designer items, and be a frugal snob. Pick those ranging from RM 80-200, fair enough I suppose since you are gonna dump them around and throw them here and there, bank on it! People never appreciate nor treasure these comfy gears (remember the understated thingy? ).

I personally would recommend brands like Primavera , Lewre, Pedro and Lyn (featured in CLEO July 2011 edition). Well Vincci and Charles &Keith are ok too, but make sure you check out the sole 1^st prior investing as you might end up tripping or slipping somewhere the next day and that would be “priceless” . For proud students of IPGM KDRI, cafe is just the RIGHT spot!

Expensive yet expansive.If you are gonna stick with a pair for a long time then this leather-made flats are so yours!

Don't get me wrong, I still am an ardent fan of high heels. But that love is destroying my feet and cascading pain. In line with the current self-proclaimed agony, I am doing you girls a favor (appreciate okay) by putting flats under the lime light.

The perfect pop for a jeans+tees look. JustI picture yourself slipping on these adorable bold-printed flats...speechless

How to pair? I love this part. Honestly its not at all rocket science  to pair B. flats with your look. They go classily with any apparels be it a dress, jersey shirt, office wear, denim or whatever junk that is in your closet! 

A dress with heels is sexy and the same dress with a pair of cutesy B.flats is chic! That’s the difference. So you select your look.

It is indeed a

flared dress in patterned chiffon with wide decorative chiffon belt + of course MMJ's Miss Marc Patent Flats. Undeniably CHIC! Just sling a back across and you are ready to rock =D

What A Fab Alternative *bliss*
