stalking Melissa ... and fantasizing about her!

Image
For the past months, I've been watching Melissa up close. Before you judge me and take me for an obsessive stalker, I'm talking about the one you can find at ZALORA Singapore . I'm the type of online shopper that keep tabs on my wishlist and thinks many times over before buying something that usually don't go on sale. This is the case with me about Melissa shoes. A few years ago, I only found out about Melissa through other bloggers posting about this supposedly comfortable yet trendy shoes. At the time I find it unattractive, as the designs available seemed more appropriate for a child. Don't shoot me - that's how I felt before. However, as time passed by, I noticed their line evolved into what I would definitely buy. And now, I want to share with you my wishlist and why each has a soft spot in my heel - oh wait, it should be my heart hehe! Gold is the selling point of this shoe. I'm a sucker for gem-colored shoes and if it's gold- or silver-...

food - no, wait - "shoes" for thought?

I know this blog is dedicated to makeup but in the recent months, I can't help but be obsessed with shoes like never before. I'm the type of gal that can live on two pairs of shoes - one for work and another for going out. But lately, I've purchased boots, wedges and flats. I guess I'm a late bloomer when it comes to discovering my taste in fashion. Or perhaps am reinventing myself. Whatever it may be, my feet are pretty happy. Although, as always, my wallet isn't. LOL I'm not sure what it is that attracts me specifically to a certain type of shoe yet but I know I'm staying true to myself with my choices. Take for example these: Usual thing that comes to my mind when it comes to buying shoes is, "Can I use it for work?" No surprises there. But I must say, I'm tired of wearing black shoes all the time. Bright colored footwear is a very good topic to break the ice with a colleague you bumped in the hallway. (^_~) And if you know me, I ...

OOTD: understated animal print + peplum trend + bright skinnies + nude pumps

I want to try something new today. I don't believe I have posted an outfit entry before so I'm gonna try that. I'm still a budding plus size fashionista though so please bear with me if my look is not comparable with fashion bloggers, who are really in their zone and are actually my inspiration to spice up my wardrobe. *wink* I wore this ensemble a couple of weeks ago while serving as a volunteer makeup artist in our church's image ministry. I got this fabulous and flattering black peplum top with puffed and ribbed shoulder part long sleeves at $33.90 from Qiqi Plus , a plus size fashion seller based in Singapore. It is so comfy to wear and lets my skin breathe as it's made from cotton. It's also forgiving because it's stretchable - perfect for a big armed lady like myself. I bought my bright green skinny jeans at 3rd (or 4th?) floor of 168 mall in Divisoria for, if I remember correctly, about PhP500+. This is actually in the men's section of the...

shoe craze!

i rarely find shoes that i really like (and fit my big 10" feet >_<) and so when i saw these three, i knew i just have to have them! i got this Fioni Black Glisten Mesh Jewel at Payless Shoe Source @ Power Plant Mall. i love that it's mesh and i can totally feel my feet can breathe! it's also very cushiony in feel and will make you fall in love with walking! dare i say more comfortable than my havaianas? :) the beads add an elegant touch and i just heart that it's peeptoe! together with the Fioni shoes, i got this Lower East Side Navy Emma Espadrilles at Payless Shoe Source as well (same branch). sorry for espadrilles fans but i just hate their designs but when i saw this, it was a totally different experience. it was casual chic and very comfortable. great for shorts, casual shirts and jeans. <3 it! finally but definitely not the least, i had this Figlia Couture ORLA shoes made to order - direct from Joey Enriquez himself! this footwear is just...

fabulous heel lemmings

i was 45 minutes late for work today because i set my alarm at 6:30AM but woke up at 7:30AM! >_< the weather was so uncooperative - drizzling heavy raindrops and very chilly wind breeze. no wonder i overslept! ok, no more excuses haha! that's why even though it's almost the end of the day, i figured i still want to post an entry. ^_^ i've been following Lissa Kahayon's fashion blog for a few weeks now and i totally heart her shoe choices. so when she mentioned her shoe supplier, High Style Fancy , of course i had to check it out! browsing High Style Fancy's online shop made me dizzy! (good dizzy that is hehe!) so many choices and all are just fabulous! i've been contented with flats for the past few years and me thinks it's time to revive my love for heels! (during college, i cannot go to school on a flat shoe, believe it or not!) ok, so she's accepting pre-orders and usually they take 6 weeks to be delivered. here are some of my lemmings: ...

accessories haul

my family went to Jurong Point yesterday to hopefully see a movie but there were no interesting movies that the whole family can see. How to Train your Dragon is on but only in 3D so we didn't see it - the hubby and i can't stand 3D movies, we get dizzy! as we leave the cinema premises, my daughter saw an accessories store and she got a ponytail & 2 black hairclips while i got 3 giant colorful hairclips. my fave is the first one - deep purple almost like indigo. the last one reminds me of MAC Art Supplies' Blooming Lovely lipstick. afterwards, there wasn't much to do in that mall so my kids asked to head home. not wanting to waste this trip to the mall, i made a quick plead to buy new shoes as i am in bad need of flats. i browsed several boutiques but didn't find anything interesting until i went in Charles & Keith. i asked assistance to fit 3 pairs but i didn't get any of them. the first one look ugly on my feet, the second one only had one size bigge...
