tie me up

I would just like to say that I absolutely adore ankle boots. So when I first spotted the Siren Damsel heels, I fell in love. Despite looking like the Jeffrey Campbell Litas, I still wanted a pair of Sirens to call my own. However, selling at $169.95 at retail stores, I was a bit hesitant at buying them because I had just recently splurged $160 on my Litas and the Siren Damsels are quite similar in style though I would say more smart casual. Whereas the Litas would be a rebellious grunge girl, the Damsel would be her posh sister who likes to sip champagne. Fast forward a couple of months and I spotted these on sale at The Iconic for $118. Needless to say, I quickly nabbed myself the last pair left on the website on impulse at 2am in the morning because I had a voucher for $25 off! So at $93, it was a bargain compared to the original price.

Let me just have this chance to rave about how good the Iconic is! Not only did they have a sale for these shoes when absolutely no other stores do, shipping is free and I got these the next business day! I ordered on a Sunday and got them Tuesday morning. If that's not fast postage, I don't know what is. In response to these shoes, they look fantastic on! Though word of warning, these are a small make. Normally I fit a size 6 comfortably but these were quite tight. But I suppose they will stretch as it's leather so I'll just have to break these in.

I don't even know what's with me and high heels. I buy so many pairs and I don't have any occassions to wear these beauties! I keep telling myself I will wear them in the distant future haha. And now I have such a large collection of shoes that I'm actually finding it hard to have anywhere to store them! Well, as soon as I move out, I know I have to have a walk in wardrobe to fit everything in...

So tell me, are any of you guys shoeholics? ;)

my loves

Well I've owned these stunners for a while now and thought I ought to do a review on them (:


JEFFREY CAMPBELL MOTHERFKING LITAS!

When I bought these in black distressed leather I was just like fucking yes! I was looking at reviews online about the knockoffs but I couldn't bring myself to buy fakes because I'd rather spend more money and get a better quality product. What you pay for is what you get. They did hurt my wallet costing me $159.95 at Tuchuzy in Bondi when I could've bought them for around $150 on Solestruck because of the high AUD... BUT I was like, it's only $10 extra, wouldn't have to wait for shipping, the store assistant was super nice, so why not? Indeed, why not.

In terms of comfort? Oh. My. God. These are so amazingly comfortable. The high platform makes it feel like I'm only walking on a slight heel and I could go on forever in these. Shoe sizing is also perfect. I bought a size 6 and my foot size is 23.5cm. They fit great without feeling too constraining on my feet so I can even wear them with a pair of socks (: I'm going to have to be super careful when wearing these because I do not want the wooden heel to chip! The only thing I would complain about is the lacing - takes forever to put them on because you have to loosen it, and then tighten them to tie up the laces again. BUT it's a small price to pay because I wouldn't want a zip on the side - it'd detract from the look haha. I foresee wearing these very often because they do go with everything ;)

Have a fantastic Easter weekend everybody! I plan on gorging on post-Easter chocolates that will go on sale ;)
