Three's A Crowd

Not in it's figurative sense.

I am talking about the three pairs of shoes I got recently.
I had to relocate some shoes for these pairs to fit into my small and crowded shoe rack. 

Lolo (thrifted)

My second thrifted shoes. When I saw this on the rack, I instantly fell in love with the cut-out detail and the color. It's hard to resist things in blue. Hehe. Everything about this pair is cute save for the comfort. My gawd, these aren't the most comfortable shoes ever. As they say, regrets almost always come in late. 

How to combat feet sores and prevent corns & calluses? The secret my friends is just your ordinary petroleum jelly! But please do not use the same petroleum jelly for your lips ha. Go get a separate bottle for your feet. Apply a thin layer of the jelly on the area of the shoes where it hurts the most. Then you can now walk on happier feet!

By the looks of this pair, first impression comes to mind: killer shoes! But, as in a very big BUT, this booties are surprisingly comfortable. Yes, believe it or not, I don't lose my balance with these. I can even jump, skip, bounce, and do a little walkathon. I won't dare run with these though, not for fear of falling flat on my face, but for breaking the heels. Lol.

I am not a fan of flats, for two reasons: first, I stumble more when I'm in flats than in heels. Weird, huh? Second, I don't think I look good in it (I won't elaborate to avoid incriminating my self). But this pair may just be the exception. It is quite comfortable. And I love that I have it in black, very versatile--can be paired with almost anything. This is perfect for running on errands or simply giving your tired feet a needed rest.

OUTFIT: Prancing on Paisley

Day 13:
(I know, I'm a day late again. Work.)

I'm happy to be wearing this skirt again, comfortably.
This was sitting in my closet for quite sometime.
I won't elaborate for fear of self-incrimination. Lol.

OUTFIT: Bloom in Brown

Locations: Casa Gorordo & Fort San Pedro
Event: We have some relatives from the US who came here for a vacation.
We brought them to Casa Gorordo and Fort San Pedro.
Then we treated them to dinner at STK.

Trivia: This is my first time in over two decades (that long!)
to have visited Fort San Pedro again.
I must say, there's a lot of improvement going on.
Speaking of improvement, I can truly say that
Plaza Independencia underwent a major major renovation. 
(I should know as it sits right across our office building.)
It really now looks like a plaza.
Kudos to our Mayor!

Here's what I wore:

Was trying to swirl and hubby was a bit shocked w/my pose. Thus the blur. Haha.







black cardigan: mother's
black cami: dept store
skirt: thrifted
slippers: Havaianas
(had to change into my Havas bec. my sandals are
not grass- & stairs-friendly)
