i'm so excited, because i'm a shoe-a-holic!
By crazy shoes, i meant the insane price could go up to one pair of shoes. Iconic, statement, classique. Terms that define a pair of walking aid that could make it impossibly pricey and even priceless.
I'm sure you have heard of Louboutins and Jimmy Choos, because they are just every girl's dream. Classic define them the best. Not to mention comfy, too. Perhaps it's the reason the celebrities able to stand 6 feet high with sky-high heels all day long!
There are so many things to consider when it comes to buying the perfect pair. Size, shapes, occasion, price, durability, comfort and etc etc. How to make sure that you got the ideal pair?
tip #1: INVEST well
in 2 pairs of good shoes with height, comfort and style. Just like the LBD, you need one pair for casual occasions and one for formal attires. Shoes are essential and it is very important to feel comfortable when you walk, for it may lead to several diseases.
For formal occasions, Pumps are sexy, comfortable and stylish. Compared with stilettos, it is much more wearable for all day long. Think nude or black pumps. 3 inches would be perfect to lengthen your legs.

Not everyone feel the same when it comes to shoes. Aside from beauty, the same pair of shoes your friend bought that fits her perfectly doesn't mean that you feel the same way too. We all have different sizes and shapes. Splurge more on shoes, because they are going to bring you exploring places. When you have a tight budget, these essentials are the best choice.
tip#2: keep the colour neutral.
You want to start your collection with neutral - and go all the way funky you want. But my, unless you wanna stand out with striking outfit, better play safe. Colours that go well with anything are neutrals.
Think in this way. If you are wearing something warm like orange, and brown, go for earth tone. Nudes and browns are perfect. if you are wearing cool colours like blue and green, go black/white/grey. Just to make things easier, i made polyvores to show you the difference:
these are with cool tone grey pumps.
looks a lil awkward because it doesn't go with the other warm tones.
However, when i pair this outfit with a warmer tone brown pumps, it immediately looks more flattering than before.
tip#3: Try before you purchase
Now, there are many moments that we regret after purchasing, because we will never wear them anymore. Why? Mostly because no enough consideration before buying it. It is a common slip because we love shopping, don't we? Love at first sight might tricked us by a bit.
Never buy shoes before trying them. Not every pair you love is suitable for you. Wearing non-flattering shoes will only make add extra uneasiness, and difficult to walk in. Think thrice before buying it, because you might end up buying more and more unfit shoes.
How to try on shoes? tip: buy shoes at 3-5pm , for the most accurate measurements
1.After getting the right size,make sure you walk around the outlet several times. Try bend down, and sit to see whether the shoes are still comfy. If possible, jump a bit. (Not literally jumping, but just tilt on ur toes!)
2.if it is a little tight, ask the salesperson whether it is possible to extend after several times wearing it.
3. If it's too loose, then it is not yours.
4. Remember: if you don't feel comfortable during trying session,(for example, too high for you) then you will not feel comfortable wearing it outside. Provided you don't walk at all with them.
Happy shopping! x
