Shoestopper #19

I should definitely also do an in-depth post on the pair of shoes I wore today eh? Like I said earlier, it is by Kenji which is available in Myers departmental stores in Australia. I bought this gorgeously classic pair last year and have worn it less than 10 times. I love it wayyyyyyy too much!

It is made out of suede on the outside, and satin leopard prints on the inside. It is super comfy with the cushion sole underneath the fierce prints. There are platforms in the front but I love that it is well covered up. The heels are insanely steady too, for its 4half inches glory.

I remembered looking for a black classic pair for ages that could really go with just about anything. I looked at this one and knew it was THE ONE, and that I had to have it. I was incredibly lucky too as it was on sale at that time. Additional discount if you hold a Myers card. Suhweet! If I am not wrong, this pair only set me back at AUD60 after all that.

While the arch may get some getting used to, but it is no biggie at all for the comfort and stability this pair of stilettos offered. Yummy! It gives me all the power and confidence in the world when I put them on. For whatever occasion, I feel more empowered or sexier, just ready to take on the world!

Do you have a pair like that in your collection?

Mayy's Closet #1

For my 100th post, I have decided to be shameless and post my face here. For a new blog segment too! It's in reference to my closet and sort of records my daily outfits. I have started with the outfit I wore today for my second day in the second week of uni.

I am wearings a dress from Bardot (for the first time and I got it like last year) and stilettos from Kenji in Myers. The photo has really bad exposure due to super strong sunlight and I am very noob at adjusting my camera modes. So I just ended up reducing brightness on the computer after I have uploaded it.

Yes, a toilet shot in uni as backup in case the above photo turned out to be unusable. I guess the colours abit more reflective here. Black and gold, are you surprised? You shouldn't be. It's my trademark colur combi that my friends have taken to associate me with.

I just really like the stretchy jersey material and the draping of the bottom half. It conceals the fats well and is really comfortable. It looks pretty dressed up but I felt it was minimal effort as well as to maintain the look throughout the day given different situations. Wayy minimal if you don't have to pile on make-up too! I also dressed it down for my night tutorial with Shoestopper #16, the Rubi sandals. The dress is good for daytime wear and nighttime wear.

It all boils down to the bag, accessories, makeup and of course, SHOES. That is really what most of my dresses are like. I hope to find as many uses for them as possible. While this dress may be a little too loud (due to the gold shoulders) for a conservative workplace, I feel that I should be able to pull this one off if I worked in a creative field or a younger modern workplace. But definitely NOT an interview dress.

So there you go! Hopefully your computer screen is still intact ;)

Till my next closet raid, Mayy xo
