Ace bought me two pairs of footwear as a holiday gift – a flat thong sandal and a peep toe sandal. After using the flat thong sandal for more than a couple of times, the garter strap gave up.*sigh*. It has never been used for long walks and the garter gave up just like that. It only mean one thing. That flat thong was made and released sub-standard. I should have asked Ace to get a Hush Puppies for me rather than Celine.

Anyway, just so that my ipanema flip flops can rest at times, I bought this shoes last Saturday…

I know I should have learned my lesson to refrain from buying Celine products but it’s what I can only afford that time. Should I be given much more than what we need, I should have bought Hush Puppies or anything better than Celine. I want crocs for long walks but the style that I want is out of stock so I was left with one choice – Celine. I hope this shoes will last longer than my flat thong sandals.

Whew! Post marathon early in the morning! I wasn’t able to work on it last night so I am making up for my absence. Need to do as much as I can because of this…

and this…

A few more weeks and I’ll get my hands on those loots.

Photos are grabbed from Faye’s flickr® but not everybody could see her stream now so if you wanna reward yourself from working hard, check out Faye’s blog. Shopping again? My Coach bag is late birthday gift, the DKNY watch is a late Holiday gift and the Lacoste beach bag is a late Valentine gift.hahaha. Is that enough justification?

Since we’re done with shopping for our clothes late last year, it’s accessories this time. Of course I don’t wanna go out and look like a person from the cave – without an eye for fashion like wearing floral capri and stipes top or checkered bermuda shorts and stripes top (both in dark colors that doesn’t complement with each other) with printed bag in bold colors. Ewww! Where did the basic in dressing up that is taught in Home Economics during 5th or 6th grade go? Regardless if we don’t have lots of money, even if we don’t have insurances like disability insurance and the like, as long as I and Ace does not look like a WALKING RUG (imagine the rug made of scrap cloth in different colors), we’re fine. It’s looking good and feeling good that matters regardless if it’s branded or brand-less (though I prefer those with brands now because of its quality and it is not overly mass produced).

my first but definitely not my last….
