Searching for:

+ skyscraper heels
+ leopard print (or any fierce animal print, really)
+ wedges that I will love
+ a new soulmate
+ the animal in me (i.e. skank)

Speaking of wedges, I tried on some wedges at Marks and Spencers the other day which were totally perfect and matched my outfit for that day. Oddly though, I fit a UK 3.5 instead of 3 probably because my feet were too fat broad - damn bunions! Hooray for half-sizes because the 3.5 fit just right! And it was kind of awesome for summer and super comfortable. I was clomping around the store in them but had to put them back in the end because they were 99 SGD (I know, I know. 99 is inexpensive, but I'm stingy thrifty, remember?) and weren't made of leather.

I liked the blue one, but the brown one would definitely make a good neutral (ergo, better value for money). The colours are actually brighter than in the photo so the blue looks more vivid and ocean-like, while the brown one looks sort of mild brown, very neutral. Also, the bases of the shoes are different than I remember... lighter for the brown one, almost cork; while the blue one is less dull and has a slight sheen.

Well now, lookie here, the price of the shoe is 25 GBP which converts to maybe 55 SGD? Round that up to 60 SGD and I'd still think that's reasonable for a non-leather, good quality shoe. But 99 SGD (on sale, even?)?? That is ridiculous! Great example of why shopping in Singapore sucks |: what a cheater.

Anyway, Marks and Spencers has a good selection of shoes at affordable prices (in the UK) which are quite trendy (definitely not dated) but not overly so (you won't be a fashion victim). Very nice (y) Pretty basics ftw! I like quite a few of their shoes. Do check it out here! They have leather options too. At 39.50 GBP for a pair of heels/wedges, they'd be a good deal. Enough raving....
