I have always been cheap with shoes. * :P *
Indeed I am a person who has never spent over rm100 for a pair of shoes / heels/ sandals / any form of footwear. I think my most expensive pair was only slightly hitting the rm80 margin * LOL * Coming from a conservative Hakka family where, erm… being frugal is in practice whenever possible, as well as coming from an average family, has not allowed me the luxury to own expensive stuff, what more spending so much money on a pair of shoes.
As I grow older, the situation gets better * Thankfully! * J * and slowly I am blessed with the opportunity to own the finer things (at least by my standards of “finer”, not those “finer” standards of the filthy rich * :P *) and I guess, yeah, my background prepared me to appreciate these opportunities well.
Believe it or not (I myself still find it hard to digest…) that I actually spent rm600 that day buying FOUR pairs of shoes at one go! * !!! * Purchased 2 pairs of Clarks, a pair of Crocs and one no name punya but looks good as well as cost-effective for work.* heehee * Oh yeah, enough sensible shoes to supply me through year 2008! * LOL *

My Clarks - both very sensible designs for work * LOL * But then again, the company I worked with isnt so particular about our dress code, so I can still use my ribbon-lace-pink-fur-girly stuff if I want to. Yay!
My MaryJane Crocs!
The cheapest here - rm35 - normal brand, but it was so comfy,I got it nevertheless * :p *
Wondering what’s with the sudden splurge? Got opportunity to get these branded shoes at a discounted rate, and my Mum was insisting that I get good quality shoes for work that can last long. Each pair is about 30% off the retailing price, which apparently, these brands don’t usually give discounts or go on sale.
In a way its good, stretch the ringgit a lil bit, but girls will always be girls – we will always want NEW stuff! * LOL * Regardless of how new or durable or still working the items we own! * muahahahahaha! *
