When u can't choose....

Hehehe so simple and pretty :))))
plus it's really really  comfy. I've had pairs in orange, black, gold but not powder blue...so perhaps it's time. But then there's other colors waving at me...buy me buy me buy me!!!

Hello there pretty lilac ferragamo...u r so comfy and oh so beautiful too....
tough decision >.<

So when u can't choose, just have both!!! hahahaha. And so I've been trotting them in  my house with lilac on the left and powder blue on the right...right in front of JS just to make a point that both are so pretty and it's a must have!! and also that Monkey made the right choice by buying both.

JS squinted his eyes
tee hee hee...sales is happening everywhere, so why don't u go and check out some shoes for yourself?

The Ugly sandals syndromme

When the Spring campaign was rolled out a few months ago...Monkey gasped!!!!

What is that??? What is she wearing??? Nevermind the tweed jacket or short shorts....it's that supersized chunky sandals!!!!

O.O
Can we even pair that up so well?? It's freaking ugly ok?

But...but....you can even wear it with your skirts at any length!!!!
Horror ensued Monkey's head....this is a bit too much.

 

Yea it was ugly at first......then it slowly dawned in me, I actually kinda like how it looked on those legs.  

Finally the last draw came when Net A Porter voted it as the number one must have. That UGLY sandals.

-_-"

every brand seems to have it, with Celine making its first wave...then Isabel Marant and the rest follow suit.

Finally every fashion concious women on Earth said to themselves:
I.Need.A.Pair.of.Ugly.Sandals.

and hence Monkey got a pair of surprisingly really comfy pair of ugly sandals from Birkenstock. 

Chose this design for its unique X toe hook. Spring came and went...and summer is here. I think the ugly sandal could stay for a few more months. It's really comfy and fuss free....just slip into it and off you run. Yes RUN. Hahahahaha

Eyeing for a pair huh? There's shitload of sales now...so just walk into those shops and May you be rejoice with the power of Retail Therapy like Monkey. :)))

Shoes Galore

Gianvito Rossi....the son of the more famed shoe designer Sergio Rossi is charting his own fame with his funky designs at every Fashion Week in Milan ever since 2007. Hey that's pretty young for a brand u know? And over the course of a few years he has garnered more and more followers and clientele esp from Hollywood. Seen on red carpets and movies premiere....it's such a novelty to own a pair.

Thing is....as much as funky and bespoke they are....Monkey can't carry such dainty heels

it's too dainty and mini and lady-like for Miss Monkey
I know..so cute and pretty right?


Somehow I found a pair that suits me :)))))))))
something more subtle in Italian Lace :))))))))

Look at the detailing on the back with small pretty bows

*staring at my shoes-robe* and yes I don't have anything this lady-like nor in lace. YET.
Shall I Shall I Shall I?????

yes I should but it cost SGD 1,160 a pair...say about RM 2,900
-_-" sigh.....TSK!!


Monkey bought 4 pairs of shoes in Paris a few months ago....
3 pairs of D&G and one from Ferragamo. The Ferragamo pair looked so tiny but all four are in size 36. Weird huh? Maybe coz it's only half the height of the rest?

Patent leather is so much easier to maintain. Esp with SHOES!!!! The lilac pair was a high maintenance one bcoz it's a weaved fabric material. ARGHHH. Oh well wat to do, when u see it and fall in love....it's like u'll never part ways with it *except parting money*

sigh....ok no more shoes shopping. I gotta limit my purchase. And to limit it, I gotta stop browsing for the latest offerings, stop reading newsletters sent to me, stop attending fashion events....but again part of it is my job. Dangerous. Perhaps I should relegate to a deskbound boring low paying job.

oh well the grass is alwiz greener on the other side so stop complaining and be thankful. and yes I DO WORK HARD. VERY HARD. aaaahhhhh and to reward myself...more shoes. Oh dang!!!! *smack my head* this isn't goin anywhere...

Block Block Block Me please!!!!

Color Block that is....

Last nite, the roomies were chatting on recent purchases
they had been crazy over beautiful dresses they got off the internet
shopping online is a joy...just click click here n there
and the next thing, your purchases arrive right under your nose
hahahahahaha

Monkey had been quiet....BUSY at work
Roomies were not convinced that I did not purchase anything last week
*does it look like I buy things every single week?*
 

and finally I had to confessed
"Okie I got a pair of shoe.....here u go..."
Nee Lee: "I think u've got something similar in blue and green recently, didn't you?"
alzheimer ME took 10 seconds to register...oh yea...that new pair of shoes
*read about it here*
but that was so last month...-_-

has bag addiction now turned to some other form of addiction?

oh no~~~~~~
Speaking about bags...U.HAVE.NO.IDEA. how i suffered last week when I was at Celine's boutique. The resistance and determination not to flip out my credit card for that beautiful bag.
sigh....I promised myself I will do better -_-
*looks at self with deep remorseful feelings*

to justify that pair of shoes...I had to explain myself to my dearie Roomies
"oh I need a pair of shoes to match with the new head bands I bought recently"
there was a long pause.....
I knew wat were they thinking
Sorry Nee Lee, Mee Mee and Shell Shell
I am such a disappointment when it comes to spending less and saving more

then I showed more pics of my purchases
they lurve the head bands and had to agree that the shoes matches well with these lovely beauties

Monkey beaming with happiness
I dunno why I alwiz need ppl to concur my purchases

so from Color Blocking I need to either block my mind not to shop anymore or just block my damn card. Which is better?

shoes from NewLook
headbands from Sereni & Shentel
Disclaimer: And if you DID shop from either NewLook or Sereni & Shentel after reading this post, it is entirely not my fault. I am definitely not poison :D:D:D

Color Blocking everything

U like me new heels? :)))))))))
colour blocking has been in trend for the past months
so I had color-block dresses
then if I dun, I will match my top and bottom and shoes and bags to color-block each other...
>.<
 

Monkey can't be left alone idling at a mall

Last Sunday
JS: "I need to go to the loo....u gonna be OK here for a bit?"
Monkey: "Sure"

less than 2 mins later.....
JS saw me with an additional paper bag

JS: "Wat's that?"
Monkey: "Ohhh u sooo gotta see this...so pretty and comfy too!!!!!"

JS concurred with my purchase....he said it's very nice
heeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)))))))))

Steve Madden

Cork wedges is a must have this summer
choosing a pair ain't easy when all brands were so creative esp this season, with displays shouting for attention
yeah not so much on the heights but of its candylicious colors, strap-py designs, colors on its wedges and the list go


from Paloma Barcelo to Christian Louboutin
there's bound to be one special pair for everyone


I guess when there's too many choices, it just clouds one's mind
so instead I chose a safe pair of patented nude wedges
at a relocation sale at Steve Madden boutique in Bangkok last month
*wuahahahhahahahaha*
who dun like sales???


If u are wondering, no...Malaysia doesn't have Steve Madden....period!!!!
one of the largest Fashion footwear in the states founded by Mr. Madden himself
*though entangled in a lot of stock manipulation and illegal money dumping, got jailed once..Mr. Madden is still one helluva designer*


Check out the website for more exciting wedges *compared to my boring pair*
and if u do click the "buy" button...pls tell urself, it's not Notti Monkey's fault that u r spending $$$$
it is entirely your own *tsk tsk....shakes head*

Spring colors

I know....*groan*
can't run away from it rite?
dunno why every month we need new shoes

and yes every month I have new shoes
it's almost like an unspoken ritual to walk into the boutique unconsciously
to the extend JS automatically heads to the boutique's direction whenever walking with me
most of the time...well in fact all the time.

"Where are you goin????"
JS: "Well I thought u wanted to drop by to check out the latest collection."
"NO....I'm broke....let's head this way..."
JS: "But Spring collections are here...LOOOK!!!!!"

*and pointed to the pretty window display that screams BUY ME"

T_T
oh operasi menjimat wang failed

Why oh Why the Spring collections are so pretty?
from the dresses to the shoes to the bags.....
Why women are so vain???
Why am I so vain???

So ladies...the spring colors are pastel and sorbet-liked
pale yellow, peach, green, Nude, baby blue, pink
u must have it all coz I DID
:))))))))))))))))))

Dolce & Gabbana Sneakers

Hong Kong has alwiz been a vibrant shopping heaven
they even called themselves the City that Never Sleeps

yea we couldn't agree more...most shops opened till midnite
with more F&B outlets opened around the clock
well to every HongKie Time = $$$$$$

so Monkey & JS tottered to our usual favourite discount outlet
there were so many items on markdown fr the past season
we went bonkers moving round the shop like CSI unit never letting a single corner undiscovered
hahahhaahhaha hehehhe ok ok just me...JS just tagged along

guess there were just too many items on Markdown
esp the bags....I dunno wat to get

then we moved to the SHOES section aka JS's weakest point
he went ohhh-aahhh-very GLEE liked over em
-_-" okie Monkey now u shuddup it's JS's time to shop

just like Monkey, he couldn't decide which pair....coz apparently most designs have got his size
WAT??? Hongkie men dun shop izzit?
wat happen to the pink citizens???

where else every single pair I tried on....."Sorry miss...no size..."
T_T
from Ferragamo Ballerina to Gucci Bamboo pumps to Prada's stilettos
T_T x 10000000000000000
all at 80% markdowns........ARGHHHHHHHHHH

so among the racks and racks and hundreds of pairs and arrays of BRANDS
he chose the above pair

"hah? another pair of white D&G? wat happened to the last pair I bought for u fr Switzerland?"
JS: "heeeeeeeeeeeeeee this one nice mar.....I like the navy blue lining."

white colour very difficult to maintain....I know...
Monkey has got one pair and now it's very very extremely dirty ady...*read about it here*

They said never ever buy SHOES for your other half...
otherwise they will run away....away from YOU
think so far, every single pair of VAIN shoes that JS got, Monkey bought
so dun u ever run away...coz I can hit/abuse/throw the number of shoes u have at u..
kekekekkekekekekke

but they said to void the belief....the recipient must pay the giver a small token of $$$$
to symbolise that u actually purchased that gift/items instead
and JS was so pleased with this pair of new VAIN shoes he forgot to pay me yet
wei wei wei.....u hutang saya RM 50 lar.....
cepat kasi bayar wei.....:P

Monkey got the above pair for RM 700 only....it was at a 45% discount
totally worth it for full leather...hehehehehehe
