If The Shoe Fits -Stella Luna Grabs

Leopard Fading Print Pumps PHP 6,950 (aka Rarrr)

First time I met Rarrr at Rockwell, my pick-up line was…

Jane: If sexiness is a crime, you’d be guilty as charged.

Rarrr: (Purr)

Blue Green Strappy Stilettos PHP 7,850 (aka Sleek)

First time I met Sleek at Rockwell, my pick-up line was…

Jane: You’re so hot, Global Warming is written all over you.

Sleek: You’re so ugly… you need me to validate your humanity.

Jane: You’re so sharp… you can puncture my tires.

Sleek: With admirers like you, who needs enemies?

Jane: Please, for the love of all pretty and fancy…

Sleek: That’s definitely not YOU.

Jane: I can make you happy with my company.

Sleek: You cannot afford me.

Jane: I have deep pockets.

Sleek: With holes in them.

Jane: I don’t intend to dignify your insult with another comment

Sleek: You just did.

With the tough economic times, I refuse to spend on shopping (unless necessary) but I was provoked –vehemently.

These new pairs won me over! They are so pretty, I can’t help but fall… Thanks to “lil sis” for you know what! Love is love.

Window-shopping is so detrimental to one’s health.

The recent prognosis of the doctor attributes my drowsiness to shoe addiction. My shoe fetish is back and it is in a serious condition. First symptom was sometime February but I took medications that will nurse me back to health for the rest of the year.

Two weeks ago, I bought 2 pairs, fairly priced. My Charles and Keith needed a stand-in so I bought 2 flats. I thought nothing of it and passed it as a slight fever.

Temperature rose. A visit to both Stella Luna Rockwell and Shang-rila branches this weekend and I was completely in stupor with the beauty of the shoes in Stella Luna! They are oh so lovely! There were about 4 pairs that gave me a trance.

Blue Green Strappy Stilettos PHP 7,850

I cannot decide between the black and blue/green but finally settled with the gold/pink/white after some convincing from the Sales Assistant. I can get black from anywhere anyway. If I’m getting StellaLuna, I might as well get an accent piece.

Leopard Fading Print Pumps PHP 6,950

I rarely like animal prints but this one nipped me on the heel. I love the fading effect.

My wallet suffered 3^rd degree burns and a big hole marks the spot! “Never say never” but I will try avoiding shoe stores for the rest of the year. Straightjacket please!

Fit Flop –Oprah Swears By It

June 23, 2009 by Janey

Okay, if asked who is the most avid reader of Didi’s site, I know who to point to (Pointing ALL fingers to Bubba). He sometimes goes, “did you read Didi’s blah blah…” and I will be totally clueless because he gets to read it first before I do.

One day, he started blabbing about this newest technology in flip flops –Fit Flop, that he read over Didi’s site. He said it would really be good for my back since I have scoliosis and I always complain of back pains. I said I don’t need the fit flops because nowadays you would always find me in sneakers anyway (even in the office, unless I have an important meeting with affiliates). My white sneakers are pretty comfortable.

He objects and says that Fit Flop is beneficial for this and that. He goes on to drop the name of Oprah. Oprah swears by it. Right.

The next big question: how much is it?

When he answered that it was a whopping PHP 3K, I said immediately, “NO WAY JOSE!!!” I am NOT going to buy flip flops that are that expensive. It’s crazy!

I remember buying Havaianas some 5 years ago that are half as much and I have never used them. It’s still in the box. What do I need another pair of flip flops for? I for one do not need an extra.

Every time Bubba remembers Fit Flop, he keeps insisting that I get one. He said he would buy it for me. Even if he buys it for me, I don’t want IT. It’s just a waste of hard earned money.

So the story goes, we were in Powerplant Mall last Saturday. Bubba spots the Fit Flop stand and hauled me there. I said I don’t want to try it on but he was so persistent. Bubba got me try it on and it was pretty comfortable. But I still wasn’t that sold. Since he is really bent on buying me one, I let him be. It’s for my “health” anyway. It also supposedly helps you burn more calories as you walk on them. Exercise while wearing flip flops?
