My Shoes Fetish is back!

Melissa is not available in RSH anymore and the Novo store in Suntec was closed already (ok, that's old news for some). It's sad to see it go but it's available in some shops in SG carrying the Vivienne Westwood collaborations. Too expensive for me.

Blogged about my Melissa shoes previously and one of my flats is wearing out. There was a sale at Novo store at Marina Square and bought a pair of Grendha Jelly. This would be my 2nd pair and my first was a black opque version. Now, this is a transparent black version with diamante. Bought it at SGD 19.90 and it also gives off the bubble gummy scent. Just like Melissa.

Honestly, I dont find it comfortable coz the edge (near the heel) cuts into my skin especially for my right foot. Well, I have to get use to it for awhile as compared to the other pair.

Here is the pair.

130709 : Day of Reunion and Some Habits are simply hard to kick

Before meeting up with SRT with baby S for lunch, I was at Toa Payoh for a project. It ended at noon and made a quick call to SRT to meet her for lunch. But my habits of scouting and hunting for good buys in a neighbourhood area were hard to kick. Saw some clothings and tried them on.

I thought I had won over my own devil by not buying those tops and a bag till I saw a sale sign for shoes. It screamed "SGD 0.80!" Cheap, right? Of course, I couldnt resist this and ended with 2 pairs of plastic shoes. There were not many pairs of smaller sizes left. Here is the picture of my white, pink shoes and gold. For the gold pair, I bought at SGD 3 in a defunct shop in Bugis.

Went to Orchard to meet up with SRT and decided to have Soup Spoon for our soups. Babysit Baby S while SRT went to order. It was during this time there was a rude couple who sat and placed their food without even asking especially the lady. Perhaps, these people behave the same way in their country due to overpopulation and caste system. The lady's bag was even occupying my seat while I was at the edge of the seat. Couldnt comprehend why people behave this way.

After lunch, we decided to walk around. I wanted to try out a product that was recommended by my gf. Would try and see the effects. We were walking to Tangs to get her stuff and went to the dessert store in Heeren. By then, we parted coz she needed to go home to attend some stuff.
I went shopping alone. Subconsciously, I wanna check out a dress at Dorthy Perkins that I saw at PS but it was in a bad condition. Found another piece in a better condition but the zip area was spoilt. When I was about to give up, there was another piece available at the changing area. Yes, I was getting that piece. Really like the print and had been patiently waiting for sales so that I could get it at the reduced price. I really wanted to get a printed dress so that I could wear casually and thought the print was nice. The printed material was full of horses which was also the Chinese horoscope of my maternal grans. Here is my long-awaited dress.

Before leaving for home, had received a call from SRT to collect some stuff. Decided to make a detour to JP and saw Perlini's Silver was having a sale. Saw a couple of accessories and the prices were greatly reduced. Bought 2 rings of different styles. Now I could get these rings for less than SGD 30.
I guess some habits are simply hard to kick but I really need to do so with determination and perseverance.
