I love shoes! That was an understatement.
As much as I wanted to buy all the shoes in Manila, I can't. Mainly because:
1. Most of them are small for my big feet.
2. I can't afford them.
To be honest, if the shoe fits and I can afford it, I'll buy it! Or sometimes, I hoard them. :)
Like this!
Before you judge me, please allow me to depend myself. First, my last purchase of shoes was many months ago. Second, all of these, I bought on SALE!!
Shoes #1 & #3 - I bough them on sale at the Bonifacio High Street. Both from Charles & Keith. The two them costs around Php4,000. Sale price is less than Php 2,000. Not bad! It was around December and during that time, I was thinking of buying 2 Melissa Shoes on ava.ph. I tried on some Melissa shoes at Shang first, before buying them online [because of my big feet, remember?]. Unfortunately, my odd feet don't fit on both size 8 & 9. Melissa doesn't have a half size. It turn out to be a good sign because the 2 Melissa shoes costs around Php5,000.
Shoe #1 is a peep-toe flats. It's soft on my feet, so there were no blisters. It was a good buy!! I wore it to work with jeans, weekends to malls with shorts and to my cousin's wedding in a short summer dress.
Shoe #3 is a pointy-toe-pump. (I had to google it!). Looks like an ordinary wedding shoes, no? It's comfy, too. Although, with my current weight, I don't think I can walk on this all day. I wore it to work on jeans and slacks.
I didn't realize that both shoes are light colored (white & off-white) until we were home. Shoe # 3, as I said, looks like a wedding shoes. Shoe # 1, can be worn at the reception when the bride changed for her second dress. LOL.
Shoes # 2, 4 & 5 - I bought two weeks ago in Payless (Paseo de Sta. Rosa)! All of them costs Pph1,200. I'm not kidding! I was not supposed to buy shoes (or anything) before my credit cut off, I said that to myself. Pero, hindi ko kinaya! Hahaha.
Shoe #2 is a sling-back heels. Original price is Php1,250. I have not worn it yet. It will definitely be good on a dress, jeans and skirt. I'll try to wear it this week. Good luck sakin, ingat sa tapilok!
Shoe #4. Brouges. Original price is Php 1,450. Confession: this was the last pair, size 9. Medyo masikip sya. Pero, go lang! Diba, lumuluwang naman lahat ng shoes?? Bwahahaha.
Shoe #5. Wedge. Original price is Php 995. I love wedges. I wore this to work, 3 times already. All of them with jeans. Well, 4 out 5days, I'm on jeans, eh. Very comfortable at first. Pero kasi, malapad ang paa ko, kaya medyo masakit sa may unahan, pag matagal.
I think it's a steal that I bought 5 pair of shoes to the tune of Php3,200. Agree?
It's even cheaper than a pair of my current fave shoes. Haha.
But, I tell you, this is
the most comfortable shoes I have worn in my entire life! I wear this almost everyday, since I bought it. Muka na syang kawawa. I'll definitely save up so I can buy my second Anthology! :)
I don't want to justify my
shoe addiction love for shoes, but I know that I only buy when I have extra cash. In this case, it's my 13th month pay!!!
Well, my next shoe purchase will probably be in a very long time. Unless, another shoe fits..
Happy shoe shopping!!
