Old is Gold


This pair of vintage shoes are like Kentucky Fried Chicken amongst a sea of garden salads! With all the alpha fierce sky high heels this season, these leather slingbacks are a blessing from the generations pass. Sensible, practical and subtle.

Pretty Powderpuffs

Oh isn't it delightful to see a blog that sells pre-loved that can actually be loved again without much persuasion? Here are some de-lec-ta-ble pieces from Preloved Is The New Black. I have to say that this little blog has a lotta style :)

Katy Perry called, she wants her shoes back!

OH MY! Aren't these the most rad pair of wedges? Worthy of a glossy pop queen like Katy Perry-- we're drooling at the image of these wedges paired with high waisted denim shorts and a white tank with princess sleeves. Slightly pricey for a preloved pair, but the in-sole is genuine leather ANNND we found it retailing for SGD79 in Tangs Singapore... so you know this is pretty rad bargain for a pretty rad pair of wedges ;-)

Oh feet... why can't you grow into a size 39 now??? :-(

Hot blooded woman

Point the way to smoking hotness with this pair of pumps with a rather unique wedge. So hot with dark skinnies, Paris Hilton would have to say her signature line if she sees you.

Ooh La-Love

As you girls remember, there was a joker on our Thrift Book chatbox by the name of Maximus who was trying to sell his size 11 glads. Well, aren't you girls lucky now. I managed to spot another pair in a more suitable female size (Vincci 37)! And also a too-cute-to-pass-up-on pair of studded ballet flats.

Dual toned classic

[IMG_7936.png]

We're sure you've seen this popular pair of Mary Janes around, and if you haven't got your hands on them, this is your chance! Going for only RM25 (due to the discovery of what looks like pig skin lining), wear these babies with a Twiggy-esque dress and curl those lashes darl!

Dance and prance

In my search for gladiators, I stumbled upon these darling wedges and ballet flats! OhhhHhh...





Love the muted pink on the wedge and especially the bow detail AND the ankle straps! And the light gold ballet flats have ribbons to make your ankles look pretty as a doll's :-) Show off your pretty toes with the pink wedges, or prance around in comfort with the ballet flats-- only if you're a lucky size 5 ;-)

Gorgeous greys

Two pretty items that hike up the chic factor simply because they're a combination of light grey and black-- black and whites are so predictable, but this sure ain't! ;-) Peep toe heels are definitely here to stay, and so are basic dresses with black waistbands... and did we mention how pretty the grey is?? ;-)

Coolest chick


We can't stop being drawn to items that make the weather seem less hottttt! Cool yourself down and let the rest sizzle in heat with this two piece basic layered tunic top (works as a dress too!)-- looks great with a thin belt around to accentuate your waist, and will look fab with loads of accessories and even fierce gladiator heels. YUMMEH!
White and blue, RM25


And if you are more of an oxfords girl rather than a gladiators girl, you can purchase this pair of oxford heels (originally from Korea) from the same place too!
Oxford heels, RM55 (size 8 - worn once)

Delicate style


A pretty pair of white pumps with delicate contrasting stitches that gives it this hand-drawn effect-- ladylike without being predictable, will go with dresses, jeans, and even formal shorts!

Tip: To keep your shoes in tip top condition (especially white ones), wipe it down with a wet wipe or damp cloth at the end of the day before putting them into the shoe cupboard.
