Order of they day: getting engaged.
Relax, its not me.
But everyone else seem to be doing it! The bloggers on my Google Reader, my inner circle friends, my good friends, friends I’d not seen for a while, friends I’d not seen for eternity, 3rd degree acquaintances, ghosts of friendships past.
Following from that, engagement photos are all [...]

The Triumph of Shoes + Warm Seats
Posted in A Girl Named Bliss, Arbeit Macht Frei, Conversations, For the Love of Shoes on February 11, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I spent the whole of yesterday at a conference.
I have yet to figure out the purpose of such sessions.
I was wearing my lace-up booties. A middle-aged uncle pointed them out and told me that they’re so ‘unique’.
I’m a little weird out – middle age men don’t notice shoes, right?!
But I said thank you, because its [...]

Hanying tagged this photo of me on Facebook
It was taken at BooksActually back in 2007 if I’m not wrong. The little bookshop has since moved from this premise. So its kind of doubly nostalgic.
Always nice to unexpectedly see pictures of yourself from a couple of years back.
Makes you wonder if you’d become better [...]
Shoes & Wonderlust

I’m supposed to be at supper with The Girls at Serangoon Gardens now.
But I suddenly got tired and really wanted to stay in to watch TV and read.
CK said that I’m getting old. I think he’s right!

One Kind of Shoes

After buying my $150 Nine West shoes the other day, I tried desperately to justify the purchase to myself. Reasons why buying them is a good idea includes:
1) I think I love them.
2) I can just buy fewer pairs of cheap shoes.
3) I won’t buy shoes for 3 months (no, I lie – 2 months).
4) [...]
Flat Days
Posted in Complete Frivolity, For the Love of Shoes on June 6, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I probably won’t say this in person, but wearing flats feels awesome. No matter that I waddle more in flats, it just feels so good!
Especially after days of having achy arches on 3 and a half inches off the ground.
My refusal to wear flats on a daily basis despite the knowledge that 1) they are [...]
Non-Weekend
Posted in A taste for Melancholy, Cocktail Hour, Complete Frivolity, For the Love of Shoes, Things Called Friends on April 20, 2008 | 1 Comment »
It’s not the best weekend, and I’m feeling a little sorry for myself. It may be completely unwarranted, but its pretty difficult to convince yourself that you’re not feeling what you’re feeling. It’s futile anyway, so I won’t even try.
To risk sounding all whiny, I think it was the working a full Saturday and effectively [...]
Why We Wear Hurtful Shoes

I love shoes. I don’t know when I started loving them, but I just love them now. Going shoe shopping really does wonders for my mood (I’m not kidding) – even if I end up not buying anything, it still works.
Increasingly, people will point to the pair of shoes I happen to be wearing (sometimes [...]

This is where I write when I'm not obsessing about style over at Fashion Nation.
I can't think of anything witty to write here.
Its just your regular Shrine of Narcissism, you know? :)
