Shoes are girl's best friend

Despite the fact that I'm having visionary blurred condition, I've managed to take some photos of the shoes I bought yesterday. Thanks to the lady [shop owner] for putting my goods on hold - her items are sold out fast! Enough that all the goodies I saw were gone for good.

vintage buckle strapped ankle boots, vintage sandal heels

The buckle strapped ankle booties are incredibly cozy. They're actually a 1/2 size larger than my feet; plenty of room of movement. And what an unexpected soft platforms. The sandal heels instead, are half size smaller - everything fits like a second skin. I have to admit they look better being worn. A shot with them next time then.

I seriously need something for the astigmatism. Toric contact lens might be a good choice but that would cost $133 each year ($60/month). If left unattended I'll be getting headache, plus blurry vision. So please excuse me if I don't respond right away - can't stare at computer screen consecutively. Make note, I read every comments and appreciate the lot. xox

Thrift the Ripper

I went to my Sundays sewing session but sorry guys, no photos. Did you know the weather kinda went crazy all over? Not just here but everywhere. Couple days back it was raining 24-hour non-stop. It's just irritating to plod in mud and somewhat rocky pavement. You won't believe how far out of town this place is. Will show you pictures next time promise!

Onto my innate urges...

I've been thrift shopping a lot lately. Got most my precious vintage items from this shop and trust me when I say 'precious' because it means the shop is heavily loaded with vintage shoes and best of all at affordable price. I've bought two pairs this week. Sharing with you guys are my ankle boots which I wore in this shoot. I'm keeping another pair as a tease for now.

Also bought a new sleeveless cardigan for layering which I think is suitable for fall in Thailand. It's getting cold but never quite there.

Chaps cardigan

Is it just me or other people also mix their previous clothes that meant to be used on Blog/Chitopia/Lookbook with other layerings?

New obsession

I fell completely in love with these pair of shoes. Don't take wooden chunky stacked heels for granted for they're very light weighted - allow swift movement. Like all the wedges, this one balances out my weight so no more tired legs after long walk. Comes in two colors; camel & black but I'm better off with black. I thought chunky stacked heels wouldn't elongate your legs but I have to admit, this one is an exception. I'm totally impressed, totally broke as well lol

Sunday is packed

Been to the largest openned market in Bangkok with a friend and she bought herself a leather purse. In this photo she's deciding which was better (attention to details lol).

Street shopper..

Been out to the location where our photo shoot is gonna take place. Didn't go too well when you have to do almost everything by yourself though *sighs*. The honcho who runs the place is definitely an articulate guy (not in a good way) and very annoying. I guess if your morning starts badly then it's all drained for the rest of the day. Anyway, just posted the look du jour onto my lookbook (please vote to cheer me up guys!)

Got a chance to stop by at Silom st. The most fascinating thing is how they sell affordable clothes\accessories on pedestrian. I bought myself a belt at $2!

If you happen to come by Bangkok, I recommend Seacon Square Department Store which locates in Srinakarin Rd. The mall is easily accessible via bus and taxi. It should be pretty easy getting here judged by the number of expats spending time here on weekends. Click here to see where.

On the 4th floor you have a variety of clothes - prices ranging from $9-$39. If still have time to spare, drop by the 2nd floor for more clothes, accessories and sea of shoes.

This is by far, one of my favorite shoe stores; they look edgy but very comfortable to wear with. You can look flashy on the street all day long without having to worry about the shoe pinches.There's a special discount on every 5th and 10th pair of shoes bought too.

Yes, we do have Korean cosmetics in Bangkok metropolis! Here's a shot from Etude House on the 1st floor. Time for nail colors. Not as pricey as Chanel but the finishing polished fingers deliver as good as one.

My fav is Lilac Blush.
