My Prized Flats

My recent shopping spree with Albie courtesy of her BPI credit card at SM Dept. Store ended up happily. I was able to snatch away two pair of gorgeous shoes (one flats and one pumps), two stylish gold-plated necklaces and more ‘me’ items. Among the two pairs of shoes, I was wowed by the flats. It’s black and has a big metal stud that's shaped like a princess cut of diamond to me.



My flats is from the Parisian line of SM Dept. Store. It's made of synthetic leather. It's priced at P499.75. The first time I saw it, I knew it’s going to be mine. When I tried it on, it won me over. The size 8 pair fit my feet perfectly. It's also comfortable to walk on. (My feet didn't hurt nor develop sores after using it for a few hours this morning.)



Methinks the stud makes this pair a stand-out. I consider it my prized flats. Haha. I also love that it has enough front coverage, the lines in between my foot fingers don’t show like they normally do with ballet flats.

I bought the flats immediately without second thoughts. After all, I really needed one to wear in the office. I hope this pair lasts for months. :)

Beach Escapades and LizzBuenaventura.com's May Giveaway!

I have always loved the beach. Somehow, the sea, the sun and the sand give me a calming effect and lift my spirit. Going to the beach (favorites are Panglao in Bohol and Blue Lagoon in Ilocos!) during summer with family and friends is my top summer activity. This year, I've already went to two beaches (Phi Phi Beach Resort in Morong, Bataan and Blue Lagoon Beach in Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte) and will try to squeeze in one more beach escapade before summer ends.


Going to the beach is also my ultimate excuse to pamper my feet. I always try to get myself a foot spa and a pedicure a day before hitting the beach. This way, I get to wear my flip flops and sandals more confidently and of course, prepare my feet for stress associated with traveling. I chanced upon some nice nail polish shades over at LizzBuenaventura.com which are part of the beauty haul she is giving away for her May giveaway. I wanted those nail polishes badly so I decided to join once more.

The last time I join Lizz's giveaway (she does it monthly so you better check out her fab beauty blog every once in a while!), I won myself a classic piece of handcrafted rose necklace. I hope the stars will conspire one more time to make me the winner! Oh please, pretty please. :)
