Reminds me of: Barbie doll shoes

i.mel.dific — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 11:43:01 +0000

The first thing that came up to my mind when I saw this shoe was Barbie! Remember the very famous doll in the 80s? Nope, this is not a Barbie doll shoe but an actual shoe.

As a kid, I was fascinated with Barbie’s shoes and how her feet was unusually made tiptoed to accommodate high heeled plastic shoes so I fairly remember how her shoes looks like. If you have a Skipper doll, you’d know and see the difference. Barbie was a symbol of a grown-up lady doll which most of the time wears high heeled shoes while Skipper wears sneakers. Don’t ask me about Ken because I never had one.

Melissa started collaborating with Vivienne Westwood in 2008. And this one here is the Vivienne Westwood Miss Lady Dragon from Melissa’s Spring/Summer 2009 Black Line Collection. It comes in 8 different colors where 4 of which has a heart top embellishment while the other 4 consists of an insignia. It is available locally for PHP5,999.00 which is about US$129.

But I can’t seem to find this shoe I really like which I saw from their other international site. Really getting frustrated looking for this one over the net. I guess this is from their past shoe collection.

MNG Oxford Shoes

Halu! Gone again for more than a month. Went on a 3 week vacation and for starters, I would like to share what I almost had when we went to Mango Outlet in Pandorf, Austria. Didn’t buy the shoes since the only available size then was 36 half and 39. For high heeled shoes, I prefer size 37.

I have been looking for an Oxford peep-toe shoes since last year but never really saw that one. I was really tempted to buy this one from MNG but even if it was on sale, I didn’t forced myself to buy it even if it was exactly my size. As I’ve said, I like wearing high heel shoes half size bigger. O well, I still have other loots to enjoy from my shopping.

This MNG Oxford peep-toe shoes was originally priced at €79.90, around $112.48 and was on sale for €29.90 only which is about $42.09.

Tried looking for it at Freeport located in Czech but unfortunately, it was not also available there. *sigh* Better luck next time!

Red love is in the air.

Are you the type who loves wearing red on Valentine’s Day? Or go against the norm and wear anything but red? I for one loves the color red, it is my favorite color. But I don’t exactly wear red on Valentine’s day ’cause I don’t like being teased about it. But let me break my habit and lets love this one.

The Banana Republic Zelda patent slingback has a shiny patent finish that exudes that undeniably sexy look. Comes with a 3.5 inch high heel, this slingback is available in two other colors: black and clay.

This Banana Republic Zelda patent slingback is available online for $120 at Banana Republic.

GUESS WHO: Christian Louboutin Slingback Peep-toes Sandals

Who is this beauty who wore a Christian Louboutin Slingback Peep-toes platform sandals for a trip to the beach at Brazil last Saturday? To make it worse, she paired it up with a sundress!

It’s Katie Holmes with her beloved Tom Cruise and Suri Cruise.

I don’t think that sundress and shoes, not to mention the 4 inch heel height, matched. *sigh*
