Everybody Needs A Pair

The Best Kind of Nice : cute comfy shoes :)

     I heart Macy's shoes.  Aside from the bright color, which makes it unique, they seem to be so comfy too. Perfect for traveling. I checked on the online SITE and found out that these are slip-on shoes for men. They should change their product description to "His and Hers Slip-On Shoes" instead.  Everybody Needs A Pair, indeed.

Top-siders

The beau finally tried wearing a different kind of footwear instead of his usual Nike Dunks or Chuck Taylors. Yey!

Their Wedding Shoes

     This is not a wedding blog nor am I a fan of the couple but I saw the video and I super love their concept of matching sneaks as their wedding shoes - white low cut Converse All-Star. How cute :)

Unofficial photos (grabbed from the video)

Watch their on-site wedding video and fall in love ♥

Matching High Cut Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star ♥

in yellow and green

I've been using this pair for 2 consecutive weekends already.  Remind me not to use them again this coming weekend.

Eds and Rovic :p Do you still remember them?

Matching ♥

     Ha! I knew my beau would be wearing his yellow sneakers (it's his favorite pair recently) so I wore mine too. Unfortunately he wore denim pants and not denim shorts. I was aiming for matching trousers too :) You can just imagine how annoyed he was when he saw me walking towards his car. I just gave him a big grin and a kiss.

His & Hers

Just wanted to share :)

Enjoy the rest of the weekend

Crushing on Shia LaBeouf ♥

     I never liked Shia LaBeouf in Transformers. I guess the dorky Sam Witwicky character didn't appeal to me much. I think I was crushing more on Megan Fox. LOL.

    There's something about a well groomed, polished, smart man that turns me on. I so love Shia's character in his upcoming movie, Wall Street 2. Sharing with you guys his photos from GQ. ++points for his "pogi" shoes

A Shoe Enthusiast Convert

     My BF used to get mad at me whenever I buy a new pair. He doesn't get the point on why I keep on buying (I can't help it).  Some of his quotable quotes:

"Ilan ba paa mo? Masusuot mo ba yan lahat sabay sabay?" 

(How many feet do you have? Will you be able to wear all your shoes at the same time?")

"Sapatos nanaman?!" 

(You bought shoes again?)

"I'll buy you anything except shoes"

     My shoes all look the same for him - may it be a wedge, pumps or flats. They just differ in color.  What happened in Hong Kong was a revelation and worth blogging - he realized that he also has love for shoes ♥

I'm not the only one who have SHOTS of myself trying on shoes :p

     After our second day in Hongkong, he already bought 2 pairs of Nike and 3 pairs of Converse.  Haha! Now he knows how I feel. 

     I was pushing him to buy some boat shoes and those metrosexual kind of sneakers but I guess I just have to be patient for him to go all out. He still feels awkward wearing "maporma" shoes (or clothes).

He even tried them on again when we got back to our hotel.

A Hongky Pongky Trip

These shoes are made for walking :)

I'm home. Just sharing some pictures before I go to bed

Day 1 - Touchdown HK. Straight to Macau. Rained super hard on our way back to HK.
Wasn't able to go to the Macau Tower. 

(P.S. Ate Mercy, our Macau tour guide, broke her waterbag in the middle of our itinerary. She gave birth to a baby girl)

Day 2: Outlet Mall Shopping. BF went loco :))     Day 3: Got sick. Went back to the hotel and slept the whole day:(

Day 4: Made bawi the sick day :p Got crazy at H&M. Bought some cute stuff at the ladies market too.

Excited for Hongkong :)

     I'll be leaving super early on Thursday for Hong Kong and haven't finished our itinerary yet. Do you guys have any suggestions on where to go shopping? I'm excited to check out H&M as the last time I was there, it wasn't open yet. Prices I see online seem reasonable and some cheaper compared to other brands.

     I have decided to wear my white sneakers for all 4 days (yes, all 4 attires + my airport clothes). I've always been a light packer and I've never really been maporma and fashyon like all the pretty fashion bloggers :) plus I want to leave enough luggage space for new shoes (and other stuff) to bring home.  I love how white sneakers can go with a skirt, pair of shorts or pants :) I'm so ready for a major walkathon.

Birthday Shoes

It's the birthday of my boyfriend yesterday.

He keeps on telling me not to buy him anything and to just save my money. He's such a girl, right? Saying that but really means "It's okay don't buy me anything but really I'll feel bad if I don't get a gift"

I've been contemplating to buy him either a pair of topsiders or some metrosexual sneakers but being the casual joe that he is, wearing only either a pair of chuck taylors, vans or nike dunks, he might not use it.

So I decided to file a leave at work and scout the mall for a gift. While waiting for him to pick me up for his Birthday dinner, I saw this nice leather shoes in Aldo. Simple enough for his taste but at the same time classy and handsome when worn. I remembered he was complaining that the leather shoes he has looks already worn out (It was the leather shoes I bought him on Christmas of 2008. That's his only pair -- imagine that). It's the perfect gift for him in the sense that he will never buy it but really needs it.

P.S. There was this nice yellow and black doll shoes pumps on sale but its size 5 was still too big for my feet. BUMMER!!!

The Birthday Boy with his plastic smile. Hehe
