Hey there, beauties!
Have you been wearing high heels? I've asked because during my tough week I was still able to wear high heels shoes with 4 inches high. Whew! I can't believe it but the whole week was a comfy for my feet.
I have six (6) flat shoes that I've been using alternately for my daily work (meeting and viewing with the clients) but can you believe that all my six (6) pairs of them has all worn-out together the same time? Yes, am not lying. All of each pair is worn-out with flapping soles. Oh, I'm still not learning.
Hubs said I have to buy a more quality shoes because my feet are quite wider than normal feet of a woman. He said that's the reason why my shoes aren't lasting a year. Yes, I admit. I have big feet. I'm size 8 US and size 39 or 40 Asian. Sometimes, I can be 41 depends on the shoe design. I admit also that I'm buying cheap pair of flat shoes. I'm good to go if the price is Php 599.00-799.00 only. I'm not that particular with the quality when it comes to flat shoes since I am looking for the trendy look. If we talk about wedge or platform shoes, I'm good for price of up to Php 1,100.00 only since I used to shop wedge shoes in PeopleArePeople. But hey, I'm a NIKE addict if we talk about something sporty.
So, back to high heels. I bought a few pairs of stilettos from Janeo and up to now, its still looks new after 3 years since I just occasionally used it. Now, I have a new pair I bought from SM Department Store in Megamall and it's a sale from MATTHEWS. Originally, it's Php 1,599.00 but it was a steal for Php 799.00 only so I grabbed it. I bought this last February 2010 and can you believe that I just wore this only this week? I have no more shoes to wear. So that leaves me no choice but to go to work with a 4 inch high heels.
What I like in this pair is that the vamp is quite wider and its rounded-shape... perfect for my wide feet.
The quarter of this pair is also very flexible to bend. It's not stiff so it didn't hurt my bunions even I wore it for 7 hours in a day. That includes a lot of walking, huh.
The counter of the shoe? I love it. It is leather and it didn't cause me any blister at all. So, these shoes aren't tight and aren't too loose on my feet. It just fit me right. Yay!
Why do I love high heels? Well, it makes my foot appear smaller; you know mine are wide hehehe. It makes me appear taller and makes my legs appear longer, too. It also adds confidence in me. So, does it mean that I will switch to high heels now for my everyday work? Nah, I'll find time to go to the mall next week to have great finds of 1 or 2 pairs of flat shoes but I'm gonna make sure that quality will be the first concern and of course, quality that I can afford, too (think of the budget!).
By the way, I’ve passed by at the SM Dept. Store maybe 2 weeks ago and I’ve seen from the MATTHEWS stalls that these shoes are still in stock but I’m not really sure if it’s still up for Sale. Go grabbed your own pair, beauties!
