04/30/2004 Entry: "Shoes"

Shoes

My all-time favourite pair of Dolcis sandals broke today. If left to my own devices, I'd replace them with the pink Christian Louboutin sandals Carrie (Sex and the city) wore in the "I Heart NY" episode (#66). Or one of these:



But the Louboutin sandals are many seasons old and costs USD$550 (and 20% tax!) to custom make them. The Gucci ones are current, but equally unaffordable. I picked out a pair of pink slides from Amp for $55 instead, and they make a pretty good replacement. New shoes! :)

Tag Heuer has added another baby to their range. I like the ad, but I'm not so sure I like the watch itself. It looks kinda unconventional. Not something I'd be blowing big bucks on. I'd rather get shoes.

Speaking of which, the selection of locally designed/made shoes in Malaysia is quite sad. Vincci has become the default shoe brand for the average Malaysian female, and although they do have some really nice shoes, the quality of the shoe itself is quite shocking. There have been a number of occasions where I've bought shoes from Vincci and they fall apart within two months. And one occasion where the sole snapped in half. It's not like I wear them mountain climbing or anything. Why do I still buy them? Only because they're cheap. I don't like Vincci much.

I want to open a specialty shoe store someday, dedicated to all shoe aficionados. It will be called 'Stilettos and Such'. Hah.

Enough daydreaming.. ;)

about that Tag watch, it's a "concept" watch. u cant have it even if u got the quids.
the v4 concept is not tested yet on daily application, doubt it will even make it to the market. the rubber belts are likely to need maintenance and like all rubbers, it will slag.
facts presented to you, again, by me.
