According to a survey by Consumer Report Shop Smart ( http://shopsmartmag.org/ ), the average woman owns 17 pairs of shoes but only wears 3 pairs regularly. How true is that ladies?? Personally, I couldn't agree more! :)
Right now i have more than 30 pairs of shoes and slippers plus my 2 winter boots. Haha. Yes! Despite living in a tropical country i still managed to own boots :D How "arte" can i be? haha ;p
Tomorrow will be my first day in DBS. I thought buying a new pair of shoes will be an excuse! <grin>
I happily went to the mall and checked the shoe stores in Plaza Singapura, OG Orchard Point and 313 Somerset. I am not really particular about how much a pair will cost me as long as it feels comfortable :) And I am sure everyone agrees with that. Although I am not referring to the Christian Louboutin's and Jimmy Choo's which are frightfully expensive! I will only go for the not so expensive one :D Haha ;p
After searching far and wide, I saw and fell in love with a pair of black flats with a cute ribbon @ Marks&Spencer which costs SGD$89. it's not that expensive compared to ALDO. However, it's not practical for me to spend this much given the fact that i've already missed 2 paydays! Haha. Oh well, i roamed around further and finally discovered these lovely flats in BATA. i was so happy with my catch that i ended up buying two pairs!
When i went back, Calvin asked me what shoes i bought and i said i picked the one in BATA. He replied " Eeeew" Haha i was really surprised to hear that from him. But since he paid for them, i just smiled and said thank you :D
Just to let you know, BATA is an international brand, based in Bermuda, which was founded in 1894. It was established even before the World War 1. It has retail stores in over 50 countries. Aside from women's shoes, they also sell pairs for men and kids, belts, wallets and bags. I haven't given them much attention until today because i find their shoes unattractive :D But to my surprise these two pairs fit me very well! And i only paid SGD$54.95 for these lovely doll shoes! *wink!
Good buy huh? :D
