Days of Delirium

Prada 'Levitate' brogues in grey/silver I figured, my humble shoes collection wouldn't be complete without a pair (or two) from Prada. Coincidentally, there's a particular pair that I really, really liked this season.  So, I gathered this was a sign from the universe for me to walk into Prada store and get one of its shoes. Introducing the Levitate brogues from the Spring/Summer 2013 men's runway collection. It's a no-brainer how these brogues got its name. The thick, clear plastic sole makes it seems, well, levitating.  Made of brushed calf leather with perforated wingtip design, it comes in four colours: black, white, brown and this, greyish silver with matching shoe laces.  I always wear shoes in 42.5 or 43. However, I can fit in nicely into size 41 of this without any discomfort or pain. That's something, isn't it? I hereby embed an unboxing video I had made for this pair a couple of weeks ago so you can get a better pic...

Just when you thought you've known everything about Carrie Bradshaw, her three besties and everything in between about their lives, here comes another pre-instalment of the famous Sex and the City by Candace Bushnell.  Because, why not? Milk all you can out of the famous book/TV-series/movies while you still can.  Normally, I don't read chick-lits. I found these books, ' Carrie Diaries ' and its sequel ' Summer and the City ' during the Big Bad Wolf sale last year and decided - hey, why not since I was already a huge fan of the series and the movies.  Plus, they were only at RM8 each. Hardcover too.  The book brings us back to 1980s when Carrie Bradshaw was a 17-year-old high school student aspiring to be a writer and get accepted into Brown. At the same time, having a love-hate relationship with the new boy in school, Sebastian Kydd whilst maintaining friendship with her three best friends, Maggie, Mouse and Walt.  The firs...

I was totally in love with these JS Instinct the moment I saw Nicki Minaj wore them couple of months back. I think they're really cute - in crazy cute kinda way.  I'm starting to like JS Instinct even more now after buying the first pair because THEY ARE SO COMFORTABLE. You can imagine what they do to your feet just by looking at those thick cushioning and extra large tongue.  Simply comfortable - like wrapping hotel pillows to your feet.  So, as you can see from the pictures, the right and the left one aren't really identical to one another but the color combo are (so that onlookers and passers-by know that you're actually wearing the correct pair). While some might think it's tad too much to wear crazy sneakers like this, I actually like them for this because they are SO CRAZY! Jeremy Scott has never failed to impress me.

I dedicate this post to everyone who still thinks Kenzo only makes perfume (Yep, I'm talking to you). Fellow readers, meet Kenzo 'Kenyon' sneakers in burgundy.  We were passing by a Kenzo boutique here in Kuala Lumpur when we saw this pair on display (along side another one in black with the same yellow logo-stitched felt tongue). It was reasonably priced (under RM2k) with 30% off. I don't know about you but for us, these are all the signs for us to buy the shoes. Like, right there ASAP. This pair is in burgundy nappa leather with thick white rubber sole and velcro strap. Is it comfortable? Very much.  I really love this whole new fresh look of Kenzo (since they got themselves new designers - the dynamic duo of Opening Ceremony). The box, the tissue wrapper and the upbeat, younger look of Kenzo are really growing on us. Plus, it's not ridiculously-priced as any other luxury fashion house. You can get their shoes (like this one) for under R...

Well, as a continuation of the previous post, here are some of the sneakers for Spring/Summer 2013 season that caught my attention. Truth be told, there were so many to be chosen from and to be shared here but I've streamlined them down to the ones that I would reallllly wear (and potentially buy, too).  Metallic and neon colors are in this season as seen on Giuseppe Zanotti, Ferragamo (not shown here), Burberry (not shown here) and Maison Martin Margiela (also not shown), as well as monochrome which came as a surprise since black & white were the most unlikely colors for Spring and Summer. Monochrome are in full swing in the fashion house of Saint Laurent (not shown here), Givenchy and Lanvin.  My favorite? The black and white Raf Simons and yellow/turquoise Giuseppe Zanotti. Let me know which one is your favorite and I welcomed any new input. All images and prices are from Luisaviaroma, Ssense, Matches, Louis Vuitton, Christian Louboutin and Saks Fifth Aven...

I always believe that if something looks good and fits you equally good - although it is label-less or much more affordable than that of designer ones - it deserves the same accolade given to its luxury counterparts. It's totally a no-brainer: why wouldn't you wear something that you like just because it doesn't have a major label on it? Plus, it's much cheaper too. Same goes with this new desert boots I got from H&M. I've been on the lookout for a decent desert boots to pair up with my jeans or khaki pants for quite some time. I have my eyes on Cole Haan's and Zegna's but finally settled down with this pair instead from H&M.  I just love the rich blue color, the soft velvety suede and of course the price - they were retailed at only 79 bucks. That is like one tenth of Cole Haan's price. The only downside of buying cheaper shoes is that they don't really fit your feet like a glove as opposed to that of designer ones (we...
