Yesterday I decided to go early into to the city for school. I wanted to have breakfast and I really wanted to go to MAC to get new lipstick. I wanted to see if they still had Absolute Power but they were sold out...Boo. I might just have to order it online. But since I was in the Bay I decided to look around because of all the sale signs, very dangerous. The Bay in Downtown Vancouver is huge and I still get lost because it seems as though one level or some corner that I used to know my way around is getting renovated. Anyways I got magnetically pulled to the shoe section. (Yup I am one of those girls, shoes are my weakness). I have been searching for a wooden platform sandals for over a year, at first I wanted the Swedish Hasbeens but decided I would get more wear in cooler months if I got a pair with a darker finish.
I found these beauties in a cramped corner and they looked way to small but I thought I would give them a go since I couldn't find any other pair. AND they fit, Hooray and were super comfy and weren't sliding all over the floor. Most wooden shoes I have tried don't have a thin rubber sole, but these do. Double Hooray. The best part was that it was 70% off, Triple Hooray. They are from Coach and I find that most Coach items have that C pattern all over it which is not appealing to me, these do have that patten but you can barely see them over the leopard print. Quadruple Hooray. Ok I think that is enough Hoorays from me.
On a completely different topic. I have been pin curling my hair more but with setting lotion and loads of Hairspray from a suggestion from a friend and this is the result. I like the volume and the bounciness. Quintuple Hooray. I had to sneak one more in the post. :)

Those shoes are magnificent! Dark wood heels are especially hard to find (I know, I've looked!), and I would have made a beeline for them if I'd been at the Bay, too. Our wee (it's small, trust me) little Bay has a shoe department, but I was there recently and can definitely say that they didn't have these in stock (I would have swooned over them big time if the did!).
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks lovely - you're such a cutie!

Thank you :)
DeleteOh man it took serious will power to not look at every shoe or cardigan at the Bay. The Bay in Downtown is Huge (well I guess for me since I prefer the smaller stores). It has about 6 levels and they have been renovating for the last couple of years, New TOPSHOP which I like but personally think is overpriced for the quality, and I love the mens floor the decor is so nice, it has that sophisticated but rustic feel to it.
Oh boy here I go rambling again.
I was trying to look for these shoes online and I think they are from several seasons back so I guess it really was a stroke of luck to find them.
Oh and I want to Thank you and give you a big hug, I really do appreciate your comments. :) <3

Gorgeous photos! I am easily intimidated by heels but these really do look like they'd be comfortable, I love the leopard print :D
ReplyDeleteThank You :) These shoes are really comfortable, well at least as far trying it on in the store and at home. I usually get so used to walking in heels in the summer, since the rest of the year heels and rain don't really go well together.
DeleteI love your blog :)
Those shoes are such an amazing find! As frustrating as the Bay can be, paicularly the downtown Vancouver store where they seem to move departments around every week, its a great place for amazing sale finds :) Loving your curls, too!

DeleteOh the Bay It is such a dangerous zone for me, it is so hard to walk out without anything. :)
