Last year was probably the worst year for me. Many incidents happened and one of them was, I lost my car! I could vividly remember that state of my when I realized my car was no longer at where I parked.

It was a after-rained day and I was going to get my car which I parked at a LRT station near my house. I then came to the place where my car was parked but I couldn't locate it. The place where it was parked left a rectangular dry spot so I believe my car was stolen not too long ago. I hoped so hard that I have mistakenly remembered where my car was parked but I could recognise the two cars parked next to mine because they were really old and dull. What made me sad was not the lost of my car because my car was giving me a lot of problems 2 years after driving it. Things that ached my heart was that the thieve has taken away all my shoes! I don't mind the thieve taking away my pillow, my sunshade, my umbrella but not my shoes.
There's a saying in chinese, "if the bad don't go, the good don't come". I moved forward with positive mind and later I got a new car after a few months and I get to own an entire new collection of shoes!
I never cared how my feet looked like with my outfit when I was younger. As I grew up I realized that it's equally important to style your feet to match what you wear. I always thought no one will ever take a peep at my feet for as long as my face and body looks good in make up and clothes until I saw a girl with nice dress plus a pair of pasar malam fli flop. She looks like an "ah lian" to me.

I am a high heels fanatic, I mean really high heels as in they have to be at the very least 4 inches. Those in my collections were mostly with heels 5 inches and above. Heels have to be high enough to bring out the curves of your legs that is why I usually buy heels with 5 inches and above. Kittens heels are good if you want to look "lady" without being too loud or when you need to walk a lot.
I don't know if you can categorise this as wedges. Designs like this one is good for a more casual occasions. They don't hurt your toes like pumps and you take lesser efforts to walk in them. If you have sweaty feet like I do perhaps you can consider adding these into your entire shoe collection.
I wear a lot of these canvas shoes lately because they make me look younger and walking around in them feels light and easy.
Ballerina flats are essential because they can be matched with any kinds of clothing, for work, leisure or parties. Most importantly, they are very comfortable to walk in!
I purchase my shoes not only from shopping malls but online stores as well. I own a pair of shoes worth more than RM150 where I purchased from an online store and they fit perfectly well on my feet. Initially I was quite doubtful with whether it could fit me without trying because shoes are not as "flexible" as clothes. Clothes can be altered but not shoes so once you are wrong, that pair of shoes will possibly stay in your shoe closet forever. Since then, I started purchasing my shoes online. I love the convenience online store brings. I sit at home, and everything is just within my finger tips. Best thing is I don't have to worry about parking my car. I am always on the rush so shopping around to look for the right shoes can be quite tedious. Sometimes I can't even get the right pair after shopping in different shops.
One of the online store I love to shop my shoes from is ZALORA. Why? They are unlike any other online shopping sites. ZALORA gathers shoe merchants and place them in one page so as a consumer, I get to choose from a variety of shoe brands under one roof. This way it saves me a lot of time and efforts to get the right pair.
They do not only sells women's shoes but men's footwear as well.
Don't waste anymore time already, start your shopping spree now!
