playing dress up...

like i said, I like dressing up... if only I have the money, sense+style, courage and reason to... nevertheless, here's one of those rare moments I felt brave enough to wear a dress...

simple but boy it felt good. I guess a little confidence goes a long way because I thought I carried it pretty well. Never mind though the way I smiled on the bottom left. By the way, my curls suit me don't you think? although it's starting to look limp and straight...

can't get enough of...

first was the le pliage... now shoes!

let's start with the le pliage, first it was just mere curiosity until it gradually became an addiction. I would spend so many hours hopping from one site to another looking, liking, disliking the price etc. Since, I didn't really get myself anything yet for my birthday, I figured I might as well get myself one. And then I spent more hours looking for the  size, color and price combination that suits me fine... I did manage to find a reasonable one but I'm still waiting if that risk I took will pay off... *fingers crossed* hopefully they're not frauds

now, after having scored that stella luna heels at just 2k, I want more!!! especially the pumps with a satin bow... but darn, they are way out of my budget (as it is I'm already over budget) or price I'd like to spend on a pair of sandals/shoes. BUT heck I can't stop thinking about them. All of a sudden I remembered the Charles and Keith pumps/slingbacks I have that are waiting to be replaced. You suddenly find yourself justifying and finding reasons to want (or more like have) to buy more. This is even after I've told myself I would not buy any more. For someone like me, (I don't claim to be up there just right in the middle), I think I've already purchased more than what is necessary for this year. Now, I also want a melissa lady dragon and an espadrilles (suenodespadrilles). I ran into espadrilles at Greenbelt 5 and was ready to get myself one until I saw the price. (I was in a way wanting to get myself one) It was 4k more than what I was willing to spend. Goodness! Why am I running into these brands? I should stick with the old ones so I don't get wide-eyed and drool like this! Maybe, other brands have similar styles and I should probably get it from there. But the lady dragon and stella luna... tsk! guess I'll have to keep on dreaming (and maybe praying that they'd have some sort of price drop or something)... but it's looking like the target is to get myself a slingback, pump and an espadrilles-ish like wedge by the end of the year most likely from another (cheaper) brand... good luck to me! hahaha
